I was used to normal fortinet filter (they block porn and warez in the work net which is acceptable) but this new one seems extreme, borderline unusable. You have one chance in the router lifetime to browse an obscure website and then next time it’s already in blacklist. I think they pay some kind of subscription for ai autoclassification because there’s no way with human support it can be updated this fast
It’s all blocked and I didn’t find any single VPN to work (didn’t try those with shadowsocks)
Tailscale worked but only if i login using 5G, then after choosing my exit node on my own server, connect to the crippled WiFi
Highest risk? Death was almost guaranteed in this case.
One that costs 5 cents less than the others
I watched that movie with the expectation of watching a comedy but I was left with the realization that it’s 100% what would happen nowadays
Well I think the opposite.
Saving that one single person is great propaganda. Donald would definitely throw one million people under the bus in order to save that single individual
See the recent medicaid cut to make a few hundred billionaire friends happier/richer
Did you read the link you posted? It says you must have Intel 8th gen or higher AND tpm 2.0
Not just tpm 2.0
It’s not possible to see the image, when I click on the fediverse button (link to https://lemmy.thewooskeys.com/post/575941) I get a xitter-style forced signup screen
It is unrealistic that parts with that age are brand new, available in that quantity. It might happens that some distributor misplaces some box and a couple computers are old new stock after a decade, but hundreds?
Also: W11 pro OEM is 120 euro and office 365 perpetual doesn’t even exist, and if they meant office 2024 home and business is 299 euro. 120+299 exceed the listing price
Ok read the documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-24h2-supported-intel-processors
Where does it say that you can use a 6th gen Intel CPU if you install a tpm chip?
The tpm is definitely not used as you can install it on a supported system, then go to the bios, disable secure boot and tpm and it still works (if the automatic “ransomware” bitlocker encryption didn’t start)
Yes ok from an accounting point of view.
But from a functional point of view?
I see how my bank teller works: they connect to a terminal server
I see how my other bank works: a VM that runs AS/400 that is acting as a terminal to their mainframe
Why they’re changing computers so often? The first one can use any PC released in the past 15 years and the second one can use any released in the past 30 years
First row of the 400 euro one
My gripe with that is that the seller is scamming inexperienced people, they think that they are buying a brand new PC while instead it’s not
(The fact that a 400 euro PC includes 600 euro of software licenses should ring a bell about the legitimacy to the buyer, though)
“NUOVO” in Capital letters means NEW
I call it ewaste because it is coming from that. Banks and corporations change computers every 3-5 years because accounting love to lease rather to buy
Those computers go to ewaste centers, then some not honest sellers take the components (that usually were left on 24/7 because in offices nobody bothers to turn off computers) and put them in brand new cases
That’s why is a scam, selling old stuff that came from an ewaste center as brand new
But indeed it you expose all the ports to internet (not just connect under nat) windows XP, you gonna get infected by blaster within 5 minutes
Windows 11 doesn’t actually need the tpm. They just check: “oh it’s Intel 6th gen, it’s trash from the last decade, sorry incompatible ewaste, buy a new one”
Intel 6th gen + tpm chip = still “incompatible”
Their marketing told us the lie “it needs tpm and secure boot” but they actually check if it has introduced to the market after 2018 or not
In those units the scammer patched the install image to install without the check. Who buys this will get a surprise when in the next months the next update comes out and refuse to install (25h1?)
In my western country, car dealers do the same in order to meet their sales target
for example, i browse to a completely new website that nobody ever visited. Nobody uses linux, so i go to gnome.org and first it loads because ther router/firewall never knew that URL before. Then in a few seconds gets blocked pending “ai classification”, then it gets permanently blocked because that asshole of my boss decided to block every website that offers software downloads
or, for example, i take a linux distro that literally nobody uses, when i use pacman it firstly load packages because i’m the first one to access the download server, then in the middle of downloads the firewall learns what those server does, and blocks them during download (invalid SSL due to MITM that replaces content with the “access blocked” message)
and because the blocklist is infinite, even listening to offline music gives errors when using music APIs
i wonder what’s the point of offering “free wifi” like this. It’s cheaper and gives a better customer experience to just remove the access points and say “no, we don’t have wifi” rather than “we have wifi but you need to login with facebook and you can only use it for whatsapp and to browse our website”. I heard the boss was pissed that the upstairs neighbors were “stealing” the wifi, as he saw traffic during night time
