@scottalanmiller your emails from the forum started showing up in inbox again. That is at least why I returned

@scottalanmiller I gotta show up from time to time or people think I am a myth

@stacksofplates Yes, we did in 2019. There are a couple of ways that can be done. When you snapshot a VM, any disk in that snap can be mounted to any other vm, provided that the logged in user is at a permissions level allowing it. That is actually part of the mechanism that several backup vendors (acronis, storware,etc) use to do agentless backups of Scale Computing VM's. If you haven't taken a look since 2018, you should take a look again as there has been so very many things added since then.

Remembering that mangolassi.it is a thing and that I should likely check in as it has been a minute since dropping by

@scottalanmiller Awesoem. I must say, the earlier beta's were quite messy compared to earlier releases, but it stabilized around the last beta and the RC's were ok. Haven't seen any big breakage either with final, so it worked out!

Hi all!

Been a while...

I wanted to share that we published NC Hub 22, with lots of good stuff.

The biggest improvements Nextcloud Hub 22 introduces are:

User-defined groups with Circles that makes it easier to manage teams where you can share files or assign tasks to circles, or create chat rooms for a circle
Integrated knowledge management Nextcloud puts knowledge available to everyone at a moments' notice, providing easy search, sharing, and portable access
️ Integrated chat and task management where you can simply share a deck card into a chat room or turn a chat message into a task
Easy approval workflow, where an administrator can define a new approval flow in the settings and users can, on a document, request approval
Getting your document signatures easy with integrated PDF signing with DocuSign, EIDEasy, and LibreSign
Groupware improvements bringing a trash bin feature in Calendar, resource booking to facilitate the handling of resources in organizations. Nextcloud Mail features improved threading, email tagging, and support for Sieve filtering

There are many more new features and changes like notifications in the app navigation, integrated compression in the Files interface, and significant performance improvements to universal search.

Get it now!

Nextcloud Hub 22 is optimized for the modern, digital office. Get ready for the New Work with us!

We did a launch video, with screencasts and other stuff. Watch it on YT, with a live Q&A afterward. Well, that Q&A is no longer live, but you know, it was at some point live...

At a prior position they went full tilt "O365/SSO everything" and while it all worked with a LOT of effort the monthly cost was insane per user, something like $42/U/Month for just our 1 location of 160 people.
Globally they had over 9000, that's a huge burden.

Except it's not.

It's opex not capex, so it's not dragging down RIOC ratio's for wall street. (big in Mfg and some industries).
It's just dumped into the fully burdened cost of an employee. If your average employee is paid 50K they probably cost another 20K in benefits, training, taxes, office space, utilities and other overhead a year. Paying $42 a user per month at that scale gets you out of:
"owning" versions of Office Suite is great until you end up with 4 different versions of office in the office. Then it becomes a nightmare
Managing Exchange and Sharepoint etc at scale is a full-time job. paying someone else to manage it wins vs. hiring people to do that.
Again it's $42 per user per month. We were spending more than that per employee on drinks and snacks before COVID hit. stocking 14 flavors of le croix, and the thousands of pounds of M&M's and "the good nuts" adds up. For a company with 9000 users, something that people are spending hours a day in, that's just cheap.

I generally agree with that statement @IRJ except that the long term cost of hosting isn't cost effective as the vendor can price jack the rates any time that they want.

They can't for us. We signed a EA and have fixed price terms for the length of the contract.

@JaredBusch said in Obtaining hardware from terminated remote employee:

Hardware is not worth the fucking time to get back.

If the company thinks wasting man hours on that is a good idea the company is insane

While I largely agree, our R&D laptops are ~2-3K a pop. (fully max spec' MPB or XPS with onsite repair agreements).

I did hear we have started on the Mac's using DEP, so the device will auto-enroll in MDM even if the device is wiped.
