That's interesting. I raised a stink and demanded a ThinkPad with Linux after my former employer required CrowdStrike, Zscaler, and some self-service + remote-management crap on the Mac fleet.
Then they tried asking us to install CrowdStrike voluntarily on our Linux machines. I told them sure, once they ship a NixOS package for it. They never did, and the company shut down in any case.
- distances 6y agoLinux is a small problem with remote work, I'm currently working for a client whose VPN only supports Windows and Mac. I'm very happy about WSL in this situation, allows me to use my desktop with all the familiar tools instead of buying an expensive and underpowered Mac. This limitation came as a surprise even to the client, they were under the impression that Linux would work fine.
