    • RE: User profile migration to new Windows 11 PCs

      Amazing how hard previously simple things in Windows have become. Sadly, I have no additional insight, with pre-deployment elsewhere it's extra hard.

      Testing Matrix home server deployment while watching baby monitor during infant night shift. 🙂

      Matrix like Synapse? My Matrix server is NicaHabla.com

      Well, I just found something to do when I get home tonight. Matrix with the Synapse stable branch, time for another subdomain in the home lab.

      I also run my own PixelFed and Mastodon servers, if anyone wants to link up or make an account on them.

      Yes, Synapse. Once I'm done testing things, making sure I can do backups, etc., I'll deploy a production one at theshadowvalley.chat.

      We've been in production a few years. It's super cool and works great.

    • RE: Color Printer: new set up best practices

      Probably depends on printing patterns. We print VERY little, and only a few people, so for us a single printer and the end user is trusted to print what makes sense in the printer setup is what makes sense. If you have a huge office and only some people should print in color and you print a lot, then two printers would make sense.

      @travisdh1 I've been pretty disappointed in Firefox personally, ha.

      It's still better than Chrome, but that's not saying much.

      I feel the same, Firefox remains my go to.

    • RE: How Secure Is Your Network

      Now, of COURSE, how did one random password result in full network access? Sure, that's a failing. It's not nothing. But, it's gotta be taken in context.

    • RE: How Secure Is Your Network

      Security isn't relevant. They didn't have backups. This was gross incompetence. Everyone getting ransomwared tries to cover up and trick the media to not admit that they didn't have the most basic of IT oversight.... just having backups. Had they had backups, the impact here would be very small. The concern about a compromised password is a distraction. Yes, MAYBE a secondary problem, but they are scapegoating an "unnamed employee" to protect their head of IT from a lawsuit. The investors are being scammed.

      @Obsolesce Well that's unexpected. Pretty cool to see it making inroads. Microsoft screwed the pooch a bit lately, good time for Linux to get some momentum.

      @travisdh1 o3 is for the best advanced reasoning.

      Right o series are reasoning models. GPT are intelligence models. o for strategy, GPT for tactics.

    • RE: OpenAI ChatGPT 4.1 vs 4.5 Models

      @travisdh1 said in OpenAI ChatGPT 4.1 vs 4.5 Models:

      This is a somewhat surprising because all the recent reviews I've read or heard claim o3 and o3-mini are the best models so far at least for programming purposes. Are 4.1 and 4.5 newer than o3?

      Much newer, 4.1 is actually the newest, very confusing. 4.1 is the most up to date. But a much smaller model.

    • OpenAI ChatGPT 4.1 vs 4.5 Models

      Until you spend a lot of time in technical tasks, you might not be aware of just how significantly different the output from different models can be for coding and other technical tasks where we want discrete results and not wordy soliloquies. After weeks of deep diving into using several models for technical research GPT-4.1 is a clear winner by quite a stretch. Keywords has a great breakdown of the two latest ChatGPT models, 4.1 and 4.5 and how they stack up (and why) for different tasks.
