Screen too small, and odds are I wouldn't be using it as a faplet very often anyway.

As if that never happened with local admins.
What you really need a is a system that also gives a second and third set of eyes (not specialized on making IT work but maybe managing people or managing flight paths or whatever) an easy breakdown about the important changes made by staff.
My computer illiterate friend needs a laptop and wants my advice. I am currently out of state so I cant uninstall any bloatware for them. Are there any laptops (under $700) that don't come preloaded with trash?
They need it for work and school, nothing to taxing

If he's not a complete fucktard that'll shit it up with viruses, get an HP pavilion at Costco. Their cheap as fuck (around 500$) and have close to the same specs as the flagship computers. Using one for two years now and it's comfy as fuck

This is a general DNS security thread for anyone willing to discuss, help newbies or learn more about DNS security in general.
Who among you are using DNSSEC[1][2] already? Why do you use it? What do you use it for? Have you considered TLSA (DANE[3]), SSHFP[4], OPENPGPKEY[5] resource records (RRs) yet?
Perhaps you don't like DNSSEC and instead use DNSCrypt[6] or DNSCurve[7] for encryption of your queries?
Share your thoughts!
Newbies section:
Here are some very basic, newbie friendly, introductory DNSSEC videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTABuMxO2AM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlto6GfZEvA
DNSSEC uses asymmetric cryptography[8] to securely sign all resource record sets (RRsets) on all authoritative name servers that support DNSSEC. Your local DNSSEC enabled resolver then validates the authenticity of your DNS queries to make sure your query has not been tampered with. This thwarts attacks trying to, for example, redirect you to malicious and compromised servers instead.
If you're thinking about registering your own domain, check if your registrar offers DNSSEC. Some registrars automatically sign your zone, which means you most likely can already add your TLSA RRs and such. Other registrars offer to upload your Delegation Signer (DS) RR, or your public zone signing key (ZSK) / public key signing key (KSK) instead. That's also nice if you wish to just host your own authoritative name server.

what browsers can i install on gnu/linux that support dane?
>>60622534
Most major browsers out there with the DNSSEC/TLSA Validator add-on[1].

People in IT can barely muster making functional SPF records, do you honestly think they can even comprehend the basics of DNS security? Unless someone comes up with a way of easily implementing this, DNSSEC will remain a meme.

NoVidya needs drivers for specific games. They have no hardware scheduler. Do you realize how fucked up that is? It makes NoVidya's benchmarks Volkswagen-tier misleading.
A 1060 might beat a 580 in some random triple A butterfingers game by a few FPS, but none of the (((review))) sites show it losing by 20 FPS in smaller developer titles. Because it doesn't have a hardware scheduler. The lastest example is PUBG which runs like shit because it isn't Meant to be Played™ yet.
Imagine a CPU that performed really well at one benchmark, and tech sites only showed that benchmark, but the CPU literally doesn't have an L2 or L3 cache. That's what you're buying when you buy NoVidya.
Defend this.
why would you buy a $200+ graphics card and play some shitty no name game?
