DeLancre

Realistically, company shouldn’t enforce such integration in the first place, even if my distro did supporter it (I won’t install RHEL on my home desktop, dude).

They justify it by “security”, but beyond changing group policy to enforce constant password rotation and system update, haven’t noticed anything that would really justify it. I guess the only real reason of this integration existing, is that they can lock me out of my own PC if they wanted to. And considering that I’m a freelancer, that can happen at any given moment.

I’m a freelancer. Cause I had to run from my country that decided to start a war for some reason. And let me tell you - no one wants to hire a migrant from russia. So yeah, upper mentioned company won’t provide hardware for freelancers, but as alternative they do provide azure virtual desktop - which sucks and also doesn’t work on linux (due to how ms implemented auth via their token).

I can request asylum and live on government support, will probably get a rejection in the long term tho, cause according to EU and other countries - russia clearly is a safe country to live.

At least in your case they didn’t give the false hope. In my case two years ago company just stated that we “enrolling in ms ecosystem”. That meant that to use your PC within company’s domain, you had to authorize it with MS account or none of sites would work. Weirdly, MS does support that not only on windows, but also on linux and MacOS. And if MacOS is simple (and supported by our tech team), linux installation is awful — it requires ubuntu lts + to install ms antivirus, that will override some system filles on top of that and will have root access afaik. Well, I don’t want company to control my personal device anyway, so I just installed win11 in qemu with tpm emulation and gpu passthrough and activated this “company account” shit there. Good luck spying on not activated bare w11 copy.

If job market wasn’t fucked, probably would just leave instead tho.

What doesn’t at this point? All repos on github contaminated at this point. In couple of years border between code created by humans and code created by llm’s will be basically non existent.

The end is near. git clone until it’s too late!
