  • Yeah, this has become an issue for us at work as well.

    Currently we are doing a POC for an in-house developed solution where a azure function app handles the renewal of certificates for any domain we have, both wildcard and named, and place the certificates in a key vault where services that need them can get access.

    Looks to be working, so the main issue now is finding a non-US certificate provider that supports acme. EU has some but even more local there aren’t many options.




  • Yeah, there is plenty of systems who do the things that Microsoft does.

    But I don’t know anyone who does it all so integrated as Microsoft does.

    Let’s say you start with the basic: you need office apps, email and storage. You have several who sell systems like that, many of them cheaper than Microsoft.

    Then you want security for your email. Iyou can go out and find some supplier for something like that, or you can buy an extra license and get EOP.

    Then you need client protection. You can go out and find a supplier, or you can buy a license and get endpoint protection.

    And since you now have EOP and endpoint protection, you can just buy the security step up from Microsoft, and you get a whole bunch more security solutions, all integrate.

    Oh and you need dataloss prevention and other such compliance solutions, so might as well go for E5, so you get whole compliance package.

    I really wish that someone could give Microsoft proper competition, because they really need it, but as it is right now, there just isn’t any unless you want to do a lot more work than it is to go for Microsoft.

    I’m on my phone now, so I don’t have the links, but if you find Billet Labs reddit account and check their comments from around when this all happened, you will find a couple of comments where they admit they only asked for it back after the video, and that LTT offered to get it back for them.

    The rest (why it wasn’t sent back) is from a wan shows from the same period.

    Posted this to someone else here, so I’ll just copy that post:

    You are of course talking about the Billet Labs prototype they has been told they could keep, but Billet Labs changed their mind after the video (valid, since LTT did fuck that video up), but a mistake was made by someone in logistics at LTT so it wasn’t put aside for return as it should.

    And when it got known by LTT that it had happened, they first offered to get the prototype back from the person who bought it, which Billet Labs said no to, then offered to pay them back the cost of the prototype.

    Is that what you mean by “steals”
