  • Have alread uses:

    • openProject (though not that much since it was a one time occurance but the software was absolutely great!)
    • xwiki: since a few months (work migrating away from the atlassian clusterfuck). Migration a bit of work but a paid tool did the most part for us. Now using xwiki - most things work the same. Some though had to be realised in a different way (some rare edgecass confluence plugins that were missing in the xwiki store)
    • Mattermost. Using it for years. Its fucking great! Easily the best one on the market! Better than teams and whatnot.

    I’ll look into the rest of those alternatives! :D


  • Took this post as motivation to try some out.

    Here WeGo: actually pretty intuitive! Better than OSMand and Organic Maps in terms of Car Navigation (actual Voice and not TTS Voice from android) and 3D sounds that you have to get used to but coule make listening to instrucrions in stressfull sitations easier. Also optional: speeding warning ring sound and shield head up-sound effects (yield, stop, train crossing, etc.) Each with a special sound so you might get better prepared for the next yield or stop sign since your NAV app told ya already that one is coming up soon.

    Deezer: Well some usability things annoy me. Also some problems with the android tv client…

    Bit the flow mode (random shuffle in genres or moods (happy, party, chill…) that also has a toggle if you want the shuffle be based of songs you have in your playlists/liked already or if you want to go on a jurney to find new songs.

    Pretty geat so far!

    Qwant: well the search results hit good. Dark theme is a lil worse than DDG’s dark theme but thats just preference. Some !bang searches are not available though. DDG has many more listed than Qwant. But we’re getting there!

    I know its a absolute wonky workaround but you could use a second phone and enable google speech input – or an FOSS alternative: FUTO Voice Input (Local LLM Model that works pretty great. Better than google imo. Is better finding the correct words and also putting logical punctiation. – as in when should a comma or dot appear.)

    Now you enable speech input on one phone and playback the voice message of the dude on the other end. Now you got all the text.


  • Get what you are trying to say but both are still encrypted. They simply aren’t end to end encrypted. So the messages are private. Until obviously the company servers get hacked or police raided and the keys to the encryption get stolen. You are protected against this in E2E encryption. True.

    Ii guess telegram once was the alternative to whatsapp, then made maany more featutes abailable in fast time paces which led to another bunch of migrators.

    Now noone wants to move away because why? For the usual end user there is no negative to them.

    I am fully on your side and am using signal and matrix and try to migrate as many people as possible but its hard.

    in disbelief

    thats actually a german crossing.

    Got angry and dumbfounded at the same time.

    Tbh. Its highly unlikely that you will face anything that disrupts business and can prove it being from this machine.

    Even if you get hit by a trojan that encrypts everything: if you have AV on clients and servers and update their databases regularely, noone could or would blame a dude thats 3 months in the job for it. I mean you have no prior experience. Thats also why i would not try to escelate it further. You will get fucked by management if you fall in the back of a higher ranking position. They dont appreciate people calling stuff like this out. Especially in small family owned businesses. Trust me. I’ve been there.

    You will most likely find even more hazards in the future. If it gets worse, make a list. If you can, put in the CVE Codes and their explanation about the issue and the potential risks.

    Put it in a monthly report-email regarding IT Topics. Also put different stuff in there, so you dont only appear to be whining about the system that they obviously have been taking care of in a lackluster way. This way you show that you are doing your job for the case that there might actually be a hazard and if they ask, you can simply point to your monthly report and say you did your best and did not get enough ressources/coworkers/ or the so very much needed new Firewall Appliance.

    In terms of futur vision: write up your daily systems you work with. I’ll make some examples for your Resume:

    • Config- and Patchmanagement of
    • ~ 30 Windows 10 clients via WSUS and SCCM
    • ~ 10 Windows Server 2019 Systems via WSUS
    • ~ A Veeam/Synology/In-House Built Backup Solition
    • Ubiquiti Firewall and AP Solitions
    • Management of Microsoft SQL/Oracle/MariaDB Database Replications
    • Management of an small scaled AD Environment with ~ 80 self created Objects
    • GPO Policy Management
    • Management of a Microsoft Exchange Sever Cluster

    And so on.

    Also make a second list with projects, what your role in them was (most likely project lead), and what situation you had and the target. Also in which timeframe you are working on it (March/2024 - Today)

    Don’t tell anybody that you are keeping your eyes out for a new job. Wait till you have landed a new job with administration work (dont do First-Layer Support Jobs. They get you stuck on your career ladder)

    Also have a look at job portals like Kununu and check Ratings of companies. Since you are already in a kind of dispute with your boss I would suggest to not leave a review of your current workplace, whilst you still work there. Attention would be immediately brought to your end.

    Also: if you are bad at creating a resume. Use an online builder. Job portals offer them. Be advised though, recruiters will already call the number that you type in there even before you are done typing your resume. rxResume is and FOSS Resume Builder. Can be selfhost or simply used by the Publicly hosted variant.
