  • I have been laughed out every time I’ve mentioned it for years.

    I got approval from my managers and IT to install a Linux based OS on my work desktop, then a half-wit Windows-fanboy dev chimed in claiming our insurance would not cover the operating system if there were ever a security breach, data loss, etc. to say I was infuriated was an understatement.

    All we use is a Web-App to accomplish our tasks, no in-house proprietary executables or anything along those lines, hell they claimed their Web-App wouldn’t work on Firefox browsers, which of course was a lie.






  • I would hate that for whatever service that is for,

    It’s the provincial governments authentication service for Canadians, if you ever used GCKey it’s essentially the same thing but provincial opposed to federal.

    It allows ease of access to things like medical records, tax records, license renewals and such.

    Alberta has their own system similar to this.


    the only Google service I knowingly use is Youtube

    Might I suggest Invidious as an alternative, you can host your own that way only 1 device on your network needs to contact YouTube directly or you can use one that is public.
