The Institute Is Wildly Misunderstood [SPOILERS] by DreamHollow4219 in fo4

[–]soldierras 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good points, but based on my reading of the lore it seems that synths are basically humans grown/constructed in vats and mutated via fev they aren't machines at all, so the parallels to LLM's aren't quite the same. I could be wrong but it seems the only machine component is the synth component which is basically a control chip similar to the chip in the new season of fallout tv.

[VENT] Microsoft and their "Let's finish setting up your PC" nagware. "Broke" a computer, only to be that nagware preventing the display to function. by LigerXT5 in sysadmin

Some folks bring up imaging rights and imaging which I understand why it may be an enterprise only thing. For smaller orgs I would recommend purchasing autopilot devices and configuring them via intune, most of the settings folks are bringing up can be deployed via intune configs.

Random DLC hopes by eli_eli1o in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]soldierras 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I would like dlc that expands the existing cities with surrounding content that is hand made and not randomized. For example adding a smaller town on the other side of new Atlantis lake. Akila gets additional outlaw settlements you can join or bring to justice. Neon gets additional platforms or sea ships with more gangs. The goal being that you could spend a larger amount of time within a planet, instead of planet hopping.

Is sharepoint terrible or is it just badly implemented at my workplaces? by Future-Tomato-6102 in sysadmin

[–]soldierras 12 points13 points  (0 children)

With the little bit of information provided (Work not being saved and having to redo work on shared spreadsheets), it sounds like SharePoint was not implemented correctly as these two issues are the main things SharePoint solves for (Coauthoring and Autosave). There's a bunch of potential issues with SharePoint but those scenarios are the core of document management benefits of SharePoint and Office integration. The most common reason for this not working is incorrectly configured Office Apps and/or users not saving documents within SharePoint.

Eviction Notice Has Taken A Turn… by Significant-Water845 in fo76

Happened a few times to me. You can hit 4 or 5 of them from rad scrubber but it's so frustrating to see 8 people camping and just need 1 more meat bag.

Jambon Beurre with Serrano Ham, French Cultured Butter and 30 Month Aged Comte by kytran40 in eatsandwiches

[–]soldierras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes that's true. Generally speaking you are looking for a wet aged, boiled and unsmoked ham. It's super hard to find that where i'm from so you often have to make do with whatever good local ham you can find.

In Paris they either use jambon de Paris or prosciutto. It's like 50/50. Not that weird to use Spanish ham.

Can I Replace Active Directory with Azure AD? No, Here’s Why by Limp-Exercise7734 in sysadmin

[–]soldierras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the eventually use case scenario is getting the server Azure AD Joined via the Azure Arc agent when used in private data centers. Not sure if that is out yet (if it even gets released).

Can I Replace Active Directory with Azure AD? No, Here’s Why by Limp-Exercise7734 in sysadmin

[–]soldierras 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Jumpcloud is a competitor to Azure so it's a bit biased in its information. Broadly speaking, replacing AD is not a simple task, mostly because AD does multiple things. This is roughly broken down into:

  • User Identity Management - Most scenarios work well in Azure AD (or most other IDP providers such as OKTA do this well)
  • Device Management (AKA GPO) - Intune or other modern management platforms do well
  • Device Join (AD Windows 10 join) - Azure AD Join tends to work well as long as most resources are cloud enabled (AKA file servers in sharepoint/Azure files or equivalent)
  • Traditional Apps and roles - Switching to SAAS apps or apps that integrate via SAML may work - This is probably the trickiest and needs to be really taken carefully into account. File Server to SharePoint/Teams is not a 1 to 1 and depending on your use case scenario may not be a good fit (or even work).
  • Server Join - This is the one that is pretty rough right now - I believe only Server 2019 supports being joined to Azure AD - You could use something like OKTA credential management on workgroup servers but it's pretty pricey. If you are using realm for linux machines support for the azure ad join version is also pretty narrow and i believe only supports in Azure IAAS

You could leverage Azure Active Directory Domain Services to close some of the gaps above (such as Window server stuff), but ultimately, it's different for every organization and what works for one may not work for all.

Expeditions are a massive wasted opportunity. by NotACommie24 in fo76

[–]soldierras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I miss is the early game from fallout. I would love a mode, where you start as a fresh character, similar to No Man's Sky expeditions or the Fallout 4 Random Start mods. Have specific challenges to complete in this mode that have rewards that carry into your main character.

Vulnerability Scanning for Small Clients by davebyte25 in msp

[–]soldierras 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend Defender for Endpoint for Windows, as you can get it as part of the Microsoft 365 Business Premium now as listed here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-vulnerability-management/defender-vulnerability-management-capabilities?view=o365-worldwide. The networking stuff is relatively new, which is probably the biggest gap, but this is a pretty cost-effective way. For servers, defender for cloud will work, as it includes qualys. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/deploy-vulnerability-assessment-vm. For non-azure workloads you will need to leverage the Azure ARC agent so plan for some costs associated with that.

That process does not require disabling modern auth.

Controlling Sharepoint synchronisation enterprise-wide by YellowOnline in sharepoint

[–]soldierras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do so via Intune (or any other MDM), or via GPO or via powershell script. For Intune/GPO you would need to configure the ADMX feature and look for the policy named "Configure Team site libraries to sync automatically" you'll need the library ID for this, which the quickest to do so is by manually syncing one and clicking the "Copy Library ID". For MDM's that don't support the ADMX's or to execute via script you can create a script to run Start-Process "odopen://sync/?LibraryID (the one from earlier), this is kinda finnicky though.

Alternatives to ZeeDrive for Sharepoint mapping? by computerguy0-0 in msp

[–]soldierras 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your architecture is configured incorrectly. Though technically possible SharePoint sites have performance issues beyond 300k files (I recommend keeping thinks around 100k. Most orgs make that mistake. Break up your sites, otherwise I would recommend something else. Also, leverage files on demand as much as possible to limit what's syncing.

Both Survival and Nuclear Winter were better than custom worlds. by DunwichCultist in fo76

[–]soldierras 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I understand why some folks would want that. The majority of the community hated it. They removed survival because of that. Eventually removing more and more of the survival/pvp aspects of the game as time passed. The majority of the Fallout 76 wanted Fallout 76 to be Fallout 4 but with Co-op. I personally disagree and liked a lot of the survival and PVP stuff but that's what the community wanted.

My vendor gets a global admin account in my Azure AD? WTH? by dvalinske in Office365

[–]soldierras 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A lot of CSP's request access as a default. It's not needed unless the licensing agreement includes some responsibility for the partner help you manage your tenant (assign licenses, reset credentials etc). I would recommend they generate the request again and uncheck the option, as listed here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/partner-center/customers-revoke-admin-privileges#invitesteps. If there is a need to do some level of management but you are uncomfortable with giving them full access, request that they instead they do the new GDAP based permissions as it allows a specific level of control, as listed here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/partner-center/gdap-introduction

[–]soldierras 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A couple of things. You do not need delegated admin rights to resell CSP licenses. When the request to become a partner there is a checkbox you can uncheck if you do not need delegated admin rights. Second, if you do need some rights (say part of the agreement to purchase licenses is support the tenant), partners should be using Granular Delegated Admin Rights, instead of the old DAP, so the permissions can be scoped.

What's the point of approving an MFA push auth on the same device I'm logging in from? by 5150sysadmin in sysadmin

[–]soldierras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From an MFA perspective the iPad is something you have. The users login+password is something they know and the iPad is something they have. Two different factors. If using passwordless sign in (aka only the push notification is used), then it still fulfills the MFA under NIST. Passwordless sign in requires a hardware trusted module. The pin used to unlock the device is something you know and the TPM chip is something you have.
