lament.cfg posted:Chromium Edge is Good. A correct take. I don't use it because I'm pretty hard in the Google Chrome ecosystem across all my devices (and I'm usually on a Mac or Chromebook anyways), but for a Microsoft browser it's actually really good and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to people. It does a lot of things really well and it's a great direction for them to go. Hopefully they don't ruin it.

Im forced to use Chromium Edge and I dont actually hate it. I still prefer Firefox on my home Linux machine but Chromium Edge is perfectly usable.

Posted this in C-SPAM, but: an update in chrome/chromium-based browsers/apps broke physical media controls in Youtube music (and Youtube?) The chaser:  ..then my friend tells me Edge has actually been pretty good!

I really enjoy how Edge integrates your Office account/credentials. It makes setup of new users/machines a few steps faster.

Edge is good enough to stick with, but not good enough to change because of.

We're getting ready to move everyone from Chrome to Edge because it does SSO into the browser to sync favorites/settings and also better integrates with Defender ATP Network Protection. Tells the user why a page is being blocked instead of just a network reset notification.

Ok, I'll amend: edge isn't good enough for a home user to switch Its pretty drat slick without being obviously bad tho, which is a first for a MS browser

May be shooting from the hip (and also lol @ username/post combo) but this sounds an awful lot like exactly the same kind of reason why we got into "this site only works in IE, gently caress you" situations in the first place

On the first one, the settings syncing, like RFC2324 said, that's mostly good for workplaces. Chrome will do all the same syncing too, but you need to sign in with a Google account. On the Defender ATP Network Protection, same thing, it's not something that normal users are going to have running. It is web filtering at the client level using Defender to kill the connection and all that happens is Chrome will say "can't load page" and a Windows notification will pop-up, where Microsoft has put in a little integration to just have the browser say "blocked by your company's web filter" or whatever. I don't think either of those will lead to the same IE conundrums of the past.

Yeah, until some corporate edict says "we need to have that little integrated popup message, if we can't make it happen in Chrome we need to just disable the whole site if you're not using Edge"

/\/\/\/\ Everything about that little popup isn't coming from the webpage you visit, its just how the OS tells the browser a thing happened The fact that edge is sticking to being chromium instead of its own special snowflake should avoid the issues of the past. Remember, IE is from the era of Microsoft writing things that were close, but not quite matching, the standards and then flexing their muscle to force everyone to use it, and IE had its own special rendering engine that did things just a little differently. You could write to detect IE and have 2 versions of the page, you could accept that things were just going to break, or you could force people into the browser you coded against

To be clear I'm talking about intranet sites where the company has control over both the client and the site. I deal daily with internal sites in 2021 that are still IE-only. I'm not totally sure whether that changes the context any, just that I can easily see how the company can throw up its hands and say "well if we don't get the popup we don't pass audit"

It doesn't change the context. Also, if your intranet site is triggering the antivirus that its a malicious site, thats a problem. All this is, literally, is the antivirus built into windows blocking bad websites and telling the browser instead of giving you a windows notification. Thats all it is. It interacts with the code on the website in absolutely zero way. (Yes I know atp is more than just antivirus, but that doesn't change the ELI5 here)

Jane: I need access to these files to do my job and also as a top-level manager I think I need access to what the company shareholders are discussing in order to help with long-term business planning. Manager: Please grant user Jane full access to drive X and grant her access to the Shareholders intranet site. Me: It appears that Jane already has full access to drive X, and is an owner of the Shareholders intranet site because she created it.

Spend a bunch of time tracing why something isn't working, find that it was disabled (or whatever) by myself with a very nice comment explaining when and why it was disabled. At least I have enough sense to leave myself notes, if not enough sense to check for those notes in the first place before digging.

This place is a message... and part of a system of messages... pay attention to it! Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture. This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here. What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. This message is a warning about danger. The danger is in a particular location... it increases towards a center... the center of danger is here... of a particular size and shape, and below us. The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours. The danger is to the body, and it can kill. The form of the danger is an emanation of energy. The danger is unleashed only if you substantially disturb this place physically. This place is best shunned and left uninhabited.

I've never seen anyone in my professional experience say anything about the fact that giving a VM more resources can slow it down if it already has enough. Leads to some hilarious "my vm is beefy as hell and no one can figure out why its slow" convos

I've actually proven it twice, by radically downsizing people's VMs and showing them how the performance improves, and the same people keep coming back wanting bigass VMs. It would drive me to despair except that I can now deliver the lecture on autopilot while doing more interesting work.
