Pretty sure most hosting platforms have egress costs on their cheaper VM instances.

I know Google cloud charges for bandwidth to AUS, and Oracle is 10TB of egress per month before charging (which I think is the most generous of free/cheap hosting platforms).

Part of the point behind Ventoy is that you don’t need to prepare the USB to be bootable. You can just copy/paste the whole iso into Ventoy and it will be bootable. New release comes out? Just copy it onto your USB drive. Don’t even need to remove the old version of you don’t want to.

Makes things much easier in the tech world for having a single USB with 50+ bootable tools and installers on there like with MediCat (which uses Ventoy as a base).

Only thing I’ve had issues with booting from Ventoy is the ProxMox install iso. Everything else has worked first try.

Open PowerShell and run:

winget install 7zip.7zip

Winget is built into windows after around Win10 1903, so you don’t even have to launch a browser to download most apps anymore.

+1 for Mikrotik.

Get one of their routers that have an Arm or x86 processor and you can run PiHole and a DDNS updater on there as containers. Wireguard support (client and server) is built in.

Even their cheapest hardware that runs routerOS has access to all the same features as their enterprise level gear.

Every time I see a Kia Soul in my rearview I know they’re going to be tailgating like an asshole and using turn lanes to pass traffic.

Spent a full day setting up Nextcloud so I could file sync my machines and share files externally. It was slow as hell and didn’t work half the time.

Spent 10 minutes spinning up Syncthing and FileBrowser containers and have had zero issues with them since.

Yup. Our RMM tools work best on Windows machines. Honestly, Linux is fine too, but MacOS is the worst to manage.

If anything needs to be modified/deployed on MacOS, I have to create a new PPPC and deploy it through Intune/Jamf/Addigy, otherwise you can guarantee the end user won’t accept the correct security prompts and things won’t work.
