Organize. Lone vigilantes carrying out incredibly sporadic assassinations against poor target choices isn’t going to make things better.
The Nepalese didn’t overthrow their government by a couple of folks shooting a couple of folks spread out over months.
He cancelled one event? Holy shit the world is healed!
You aren’t wrong that these people are cowards.
But Luigi didn’t change health insurance. It pushed one bad move from a former United Healthcare exec back but didn’t stop it, and now there’s proposed kickbacks for AI companies whenever their AI denies medicare or medicaid coverage.
There is so damn much broken and I understand the sheer desperation, but lone vigilantes carrying out sporadic and infrequent assassinations with poor target choices are not going to cause long term positive change.
I significantly doubt killing Charlie Kirk of all people is going to effect change. At least, it’s not going to be positive change.
The right is emboldened greatly by every situation like this. Yes, they’ve just been looking for an excuse and would be horrible anyway, but this accelerates things by giving them more definitive cover.
They’re already making shit up about evidence of “trans and leftist stuff” carved into the bullets or casings (tabloids and the WSJ have run with this) when there’s no actual proof.
Turning Point USA will stumble for a bit while they find a new talking head capable of carrying their bullshit platform, but there’s a glut of right wing influencers (and people willing to play one for money) that will fill the gap.
Also, he was shot in front of his kids. They’re already fucked up enough having him as a dad without seeing him catch a bullet in front of them and die.
Look, I’ve got no tears to shed for this balloon headed ass. But this is not a victory. Even if you support the idea of using violence to achieve change, this was a piss poor target.
Glad I only have two of their “dumb” switches then.
Built in… I think 2021? Maybe 2020? Would have been October-ish. It was right as nVidia’s 3000 series came out and no one was able to get ahold of them, or any other GPUs, at MSRP.
Use case when built: Gaming at 1080p with settings maxed out (or close), pimping old game graphics using reshade, running a home virtual server lab for learning, never having to close out of applications or browser tabs to ensure other programs had enough speed. Programming using RAM hungry IDEs (Jetbrains and VSCode).
Use case now: Mostly the same, but gaming at 1440p (upgraded my monitors) with high frame rates requires bumping down settings at times. Don’t play too many recent AAA games either, so it’s mostly fine for my needs, but the GPU is finally starting to show its age. Thankfully my eyes are pretty “console-ified” so with variable refresh rate I don’t usually notice framerate until it drops below 30. Little less use of the virtual homelab stuff. Still program at home occasionally, but again, not as often anymore. Use as a lazy man’s media server to share media folders to Kodi across the house.
Exchange Server is effectively dead mid October too. Technically they have Exchange Server SE as an option, but it’s clearly not how they want people using Exchange anymore. They don’t even want hybrid setups.
Which is extra annoying because if you have Azure AD (I guess it’s Entra ID now) syncing from an on prem AD forest, half of the mailbox management shit in Exchange Online just doesn’t work and forces you to make the changes on-prem anyway.
Yep, was literally made as a marketing stunt.
Windows Server is less of a general use server, and more of just a staging platform for Microsoft’s other specific server based software installs. And even a lot of those don’t co-mingle on the same server well.
Have fun with that then. Sorry about your balls.
If you’re competent and technologically saavy enough to use a Linux distro as your daily driver, you can learn to make Windows work for you too.
Waste of effort if you don’t need to interact with any Windows environments for school or work, but definitely possible.
For me? I’m happy to get paid to automate shit using PowerShell that should have been basic built in functionality from the start. PowerShell is just the most convenient scripting language due to being packed-in with most Windows installs, and tons of built in functionality for interfacing with other Microsoft products. So as long as Microsoft keeps sucking, I’ve got a comfy paycheck.
And if the year of the Linux desktop ever finally happens? I’m ready, I’ll be cheering, and I’ll be ready to get paid helping companies to make the switch.
I’m usually a Windows “shill” or at least a casual defender of it, as I work in a Windows environment and it’s not as bad as people pretend it is. No shade against Linux, I love it and Windows is bad. Just not like “I’d rather self-castrate” bad.
Anyway…
But for a home server? Either be super lazy and set up samba shares from your Windows desktop for the drives (avoid having a server at all) or bite the bullet and use Linux. You’ll get so much more out of a Linux server that it’s not even funny.
My guy, the only rule on this community is to just not do this. It’s also the only pinned post.

If you don’t like this sort of thing, block the community so it doesn’t show up in your all feed.

It’s good enough for corporate (with multiple other lines of defense).
You had up until the last text box. Yeah, the world isn’t structured well for success of anyone but those who already have extreme levels of wealth. That’s a big fucking problem. I don’t particularly disagree with your last box, but it’s practically a separate thing from the rest of your build up.
The shit state of the world doesn’t absolve you of responsibility for your own actions, or your own choices to try and do better or to just give up.
It’s tempting to blame all our problems on external sources, but here’s the rub: regardless of cause, you’re in charge of your own reaction to these problems. Life is hard, and you need to be kind to yourself when you fail, but you still need to get back up and try.
If you struggle to see the point of anything when going up against such overwhelming odds against you? To a certain degree… welcome to life. You likely also have depression that you should get checked out and get some help for. Comorbidity with ADHD.
Sounds like a good case for brute forcing the filenames. Just do the proper thing and don’t leave your cloud storage publicly accessible.
On-Prem Sharepoint, if “servers” didn’t give that away.
These CVEs are only for On-Prem Sharepoint. Not Office/Microsoft 365 Sharepoint, which is the cloud based one integrated into Teams, underlying behind Onedrive, etc.
So not as chaotic or wide reaching as you might be thinking.
That only works if you don’t manually make it a link. Just [email protected]

Two lips on my organ? They knew.
Arguably if the speed was increased it might get results, but I think it’d just be more likely that they’d burn some of their stupid amounts of money on more security and stuff like popemobile booths.
At the end of the day the US populace can’t provide meaningful resistance to the full might of our military industrial complex, if things were to ever get that far. And I don’t think that our currenr administration would have any issues misusing our military for protection of these assholes.
So we have to organize. If we truly want to overwhelm the military, we’d need to overwhelm them with literal piles of bodies.
If we want to attempt less bloodshed and lives lost, which I would hope most people would want, than we still need to organize and put up a strong front while turning their “allies on the ground” to our side. That means that yes, we need to start doing more concentrated effort to turn our asshole republican neighbors instead of just shunning them. Start sharing techniques and talking points for slowly turning folks, build up your tolerance so you can spend time in their presence slowly dropping the seeds because changing people’s minds takes time.
On the other end, start pulling normal people currently just voting Democrat into more action like showing up to city council votes, into community service and support organizations, and make sure that we’re broadcasting these public goods well and with good branding. Increase engagement across the board.
Do like the “best” Christian groups do and just do unimpeachable good loudly while quietly wearing the affiliation on your sleeve to draw people in, then turn them when they already see you as a good person doing good things.
None of these techniques are new, especially in the Christian church. We just need to fight the feelings of hopelessness, isolation, and the “well your idea of better isn’t my exact idea of better” purity test bullshit you see from people online who for example won’t be satisfied until the end of capitalism entirely… so that we present a united front as a force for general good.
You think the issues with your health insurance is Obamacare? Whatever brother we’re here to help. Eventually down the line we’ll start steering you right once we’ve built that relationship. You’re homeschooling your kids to avoid the woke, but need assistance in a subject you can’t teach them? We’re here to help. Eventually we’ll start steering you right.
It’s exhausting, time consuming work. But it does work for changing hearts and minds.
