What I assume the commenter meant is that Beeper was bought by Automattic, which also owns Wordpress and whose CEO is Matt Mullenweg. Recently Mullenweg has been on a vendetta against WPEngine from benefiting from Wordpress, and basically sabotaging Wordpress to spite WPEngine. This article details the beef.

That being said, I use Beeper (and Pocket Casts, also owned by Automattic) and enjoy them a bunch. I haven’t noticed any issues since April, and the whole Wordpress vs. WPEngine seems to not affect Beeper.

Ah I see ok yeah that should be fine. I misread and thought you were going to sell the windows laptop and transfer the OS to a new machine.

As others have said, using dd will be a bit for bit copy of the drive, regardless of the filesystem. If you were only using 10GB, and the rest of the drive was “empty”, the output of dd will still be a 256GB file. You could compress this file with gzip if storage is a concern.

With regard to your plan with Windows, there is a hardware check that OS will perform and if the hardware drifts too much, the OS will not be activated anymore and will need a new license. I’m not familiar with recent versions of Windows, but if you have a Pro version of the OS, it might not work on new hardware.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who get ternary; those who don’t; those who thought this was going to be a binary joke

As someone who always writes documentation afterwards, missing key things, I applaud the effort!

dd is probably well known, but one of the simplest and most powerful ways to accidentally delete all data on your hard drive. dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/sda

This is always my concern with creating git aliases, and find it’s just as easy to use the reverse search in shell to find git commit -a --amend --no-edit rather than make up an alias which just works on one machine. Also, a lot of the time I’m sharing my screen or sending the output to someone, and don’t want to have to explain what gcane means.

I do like the syntax highlighting plugin, that was new to me.

Don’t even get me started with about:config

What do you mean building our own systems?

This is what I’ve read about where users in AD can be federated to FreeIPA: https://www.freeipa.org/page/V4/One-way_trust. Not sure if this covers your use case

It’s my understanding that FreeIPA can federate with Active Directory, but personally I haven’t tried that myself. As for Authentik, it looks interesting but it’s the first I’ve heard of it. I also rely on FreeIPA’s certmonger implementation, so I wonder if Authentik could replace that?

Just to understand your use case, you have users in Active Directory where you want to manage SSH keys and be able to login via SSH to linux machines?
