#Low Cost Linux Laptops

Note
Since some people might want a Mac, I'll offer a Mac equivalent of your laptop guide from the perspective of a Mac/Linux person.
Even the cheapest Macs cost more than Windows laptops, but part of that is Apple not making anything for the low end of the tech spectrum. There is no equivalent Mac to an Intel i3 with 4 gigabytes of RAM. This makes it a lot easier to find the laptop you need.
That said, it is possible to buy the wrong Mac for you, and the wrong Mac for you is the 13-inch MacBook Pro with the Touch Bar. Get literally anything else. If it has an M2 chip in it, it's the most recent model and will serve you well for several years. Any new MacBook Air is a good pick.
(You could wait for new Macs with M3, but I wouldn't bother. If you are reading these guides the M3 isn't going to do anything you need done that a M2 couldn't.)
Macs now have integrated storage and memory, so you should be aware that whatever internal storage and RAM you get, you'll be stuck with. But if you would be willing to get a 256 gig SSD in a Windows laptop, the Mac laptop with 256 gigs of storage will be just as good, and if you'd be willing to get 8 gigs of RAM in a Windows laptop the Mac will perform slightly better with the same amount of memory.
Buy a small external hard drive and hook it up so Time Machine can make daily backups of your laptop. Turn on iCloud Drive so your documents are available anywhere you can use a web browser. And get AppleCare because it will almost certainly be a waste of money but wooooooow will you be glad it's there if you need it.
I get that you are trying to help and I am not trying to be mean to you specifically, but people shouldn't buy apple computers. That's why I didn't provide specs for them. Apple is a company that is absolutely terrible to its customers and its customers deserve better than what apple is willing to offer.
Apple charges $800 to upgrade the onboard storage from a 256GB SSD to a 2TB SSD.
A 2TB SSD costs between $75-100.
I maintain that any company that would charge you more than half the cost of a new device to install a $100 part on day one is a company making the wrong computer for you.
The point of being willing to tolerate a 256GB SSD or 8GB RAM in a Windows laptop is that you're deferring some of the cost to save money at the time of purchase so that you can spend a little bit in three years instead of having to replace the entire computer. Because, you see, many people cannot afford to pay $1000 for a computer and need to buy a computer that costs $650 and will add $200 worth of hardware at a later date.
My minimum specs recommendations for a mac would be to configure one with the max possible RAM and SSD, look at the cost, and choose to go buy three i7 windows laptops with the same storage and RAM for less than the sticker price of the macs.
So let's say you want to get a 14" Macbook pro with the lowest-level processor. That's $2000. Now let's bump that from 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD to 32GB and 2TB. That gets you to $3000. (The SSD is $200 less than on the lower model, and they'll let you put in an 8TB SSD for $1800 on this model; that's not available on the 13" because apple's product development team is entirely staffed by assholes who think you deserve a shitty computer if you can't afford to pay the cost of two 1991 Jeep Cherokee Laredos for a single laptop).
Tumblr media
For $3000 you can get 3 Lenovo Workstation laptops with i7 processors, 32GB RAM, and a 2TB SSD.
Tumblr media
And look, for just $200 more I could go up to 48GB RAM and get a 4TB SSD - it costs $600 to upgrade the 14" mac from a 2TB SSD to a 4TB SSD so you could still get three laptops with more ram and the same amount of storage for the cost of one macbook.
I get that some people need to use Final Cut and Logic Pro, but hoo boy they sure are charging you through the nose to use products that have become industry standard. The words "capture" and "monopoly" come to mind even though they don't quite apply here.
"Hostile" does, though, especially since Mac users end up locked into the ecosystem through software and cloud services and become uncertain how to leave it behind if they ever decide that a computer should cost less than a month's rent on a shitty studio apartment in LA.
There's a very good reason I didn't give mac advice and that's because my mac advice is "DON'T."

Note that the reason it’s so successful in the places where it is successful is that there’s very little differentiation in those spaces: all Android phones are running essentially the same stack of Kernel plus Android-Windowing-and-DE; Linux took over webservers because of the low-maintenance, easy-to-deploy LAMP stack (Linux + Apache + MySQL + Perl) and although there are a few more options now (especially in those last two parts) Linux dominance is largely based on easy, common parts which work well together. (And, of course, are free. The business market will nearly always choose “free and can be made to work” over “costs money and just works”.)
Which is why it still keeps failing to take off on the desktop. Linux windowing systems and desktop environments are a mess, and precisely because there are so many mutually exclusive options, if you encounter a problem, you stand a good chance of being the only person ever to have it, and the devs absolutely will not be any help — the Open Source world is notorious for developer hostility to users with problems. (Unless, of course, you pay for support. Whoops! That’s still “pay to unlock” and was always intended to be that way — all the way back in the 1990s, the prime booster and part-creator of the GPL, Richard Stallman, was saying that paid maintenance and support should be the business model for companies who wanted to go open-source. If you know what the term “perverse incentive” means, you may start to understand why the Linux desktop is less reliable than its closed-source cousins.) You’ll have to do your own frequently-totally-unguided troubleshooting, in a system where it’s not unusual for the windowing system to crash and take down everything you had running. (But, hey, it’s stable because the Kernel itself is still running — you lost all your work the same way you would if Windows bluescreened, but technically it wasn’t a crash!) First you have to make a bunch of choices just to get the system working, and then you get to troubleshoot those choices when they inevitably prevent you from doing something you wanted to do. There’s no equivalent to the LAMP stack or the Android stack for the desktop — no baseline “just give me something that is known to work” — because no open source project is considered real unless there are at least a few alternatives so that developers have to keep reinventing the wheel instead of cooperating.
And, of course, it’s not stopping e-waste. If you start to talk to a Linux user, they’ll tell you how one of the failures of the Mac/consoles/tablets is that they’re not upgradeable. But every time you upgrade a machine, you’re still creating e-waste by discarding the old parts, and of course the first thing a Linux user will tell you to do with an old computer is to upgrade it — tear out the graphics card and maybe the CPU, replace the RAM chips with bigger ones, chuck that old hard drive and get a bigger one, and so on. And if you don’t do that, or buy a newer machine, then playing modern games on Steam (among other enticements) will be so slow you won’t even want to try.
You’ll also have driver problems aplenty unless you are lucky enough to have a machine where all the parts have been completely reverse-engineered or where the manufacturers have released open-source drivers, another thing Linux proponents don’t talk about very much. If you make the switch, you can almost certainly say goodbye to advanced power management on your laptop, and you’ll probably have headaches any time the number of displays changes, because Linux generally doesn’t have drivers for the former and the windowing system is designed without genuine support for the latter (even though the Mac has been doing it seamlessly since the mid-90s and even Windows has been handling it just fine for decades). Linus Torvalds, the founder of the project, has admitted that he got some basic things wrong about the design, one of them being the driver model. Linux uses what is called a monolithic kernel — that is, all hardware drivers have to be part of the basic layer of the OS and present at all times, rather than loaded on the fly and installable without interruption. When you hear a Linux user brag about “recompiling the kernel”, they’re talking about how they’ve managed to wrangle an issue which other operating systems don’t even have, and which the designer of their own OS says should not be there in the first place. What an accomplishment! (And then there’s the kernel team’s openly admitted record of deliberately sabotaging the driver model to keep closed-source drivers out, which also incidentally hampers people who are trying to develop open-source ones, making good driver support lag even more. Hardware support on Linux is bad in part because it’s a political football for zealots rather than a goal.)
You’ll also find that even “stable” Linux releases will ship things which are still experimental by the standards generally applied to closed-source software. For years, the ext4 filesystem — now the default on most Linux distros — had problems which would cause data loss, but was still considered to be fully supported. Some of those problems are fixed, at least one is merely understood and considered a “known issue”. (But, hey, at least as far as we know, nobody involved with ext4 murdered their immigrant former spouse and left the body in a shallow grave, leaving their project to be removed from Linux because no new updates were issued after they went to jail… That’s got to count for something, right?)
You’ll also have to learn never to use spaces or characters except the plain ASCII alphabet and numbers in the names of folders and files, and especially in user names, because a surprising number of open-source projects assume that all paths contain no spaces or multibyte characters and refuse to work with anything that doesn’t comply with that unstated assumption. That’s a little surprising, considering that the POSIX standard (which was largely the point of creating Linux in the first place) says that a name can contain any bytes except the null byte. Then again, the POSIX command line does not have any way to quote/escape paths which doesn’t cause problems with wildcard characters on at least a few obscure edge cases, so it’s not surprising that no programs bother to get it right. (Even the supposedly safe methods of path wrangling which are recommended by supposed gurus still fail occasionally; I used to have a link to a list of the details of all the edge cases for the different methods, but I tossed it a while ago.)
But, hey, if you want to make a hobby of tinkering with the computer itself, rather than use the computer to do other things, Linux is great. You, too, can tear out one desktop environment and install another one and then post screenshots to Reddit to show how the icons in this new combination are shinier.
I don't think people realize how absolutely wild Linux is.
Here we have an Operating system that now has 100 different varieties, all of them with their own little features and markets that are also so customizable that you can literally choose what desktop environment you want. Alongside that it is the OS of choice for Supercomputers, most Web servers, and even tiny little toy computers that hackers and gadget makers use. It is the Operating System running on most of the world's smartphones. That's right. Android is a version of Linux.
It can run on literally anything up to and including a potato, and as of now desktop Linux Distros like Ubuntu and Mint are so easily to use and user friendly that technological novices can use them. This Operating system has had App stores since the 90s.
Oh, and what's more, this operating system was fuckin' built by volunteers and users alongside businesses and universities because they needed an all purpose operating system so they built one themselves and released it for free. If you know how to, you can add to this.
Oh, and it's founder wasn't some corporate hotshot. It's an introverted Swedish-speaking Finn who, while he was a student, started making his own Operating system after playing around with someone else's OS. He was going to call it Freax but the guy he got server space from named the folder of his project "Linux" (Linus Unix) and the name stuck. He operates this project from his Home office which is painted in a colour used in asylums. Man's so fucking introverted he developed the world's biggest code repo, Git, so he didn't have to deal with drama and email.
Steam adopted it meaning a LOT of games now natively run in Linux and what cannot be run natively can be adapted to run. It's now the OS used on their consoles (Steam Deck) and to this, a lot of people have found games run better on Linux than on Windows. More computers run Steam on Linux than MacOS.
On top of that the Arctic World Archive (basically the Svalbard Seed bank, but for Data) have this OS saved in their databanks so if the world ends the survivors are going to be using it.
On top of this? It's Free! No "Freemium" bullshit, no "pay to unlock" shit, no licenses, no tracking or data harvesting. If you have an old laptop that still works and a 16GB USB drive, you can go get it and install it and have a functioning computer because it uses less fucking resources than Windows. Got a shit PC? Linux Mint XFCE or Xubuntu is lightweight af. This shit is stopping eWaste.
What's more, it doesn't even scrimp on style. KDE, XFCE, Gnome, Cinnamon, all look pretty and are functional and there's even a load of people who try make their installs look pretty AF as a hobby called "ricing" with a subreddit (/r/unixporn) dedicated to it.
Linux is fucking wild.

End of Windows 10 Support will Affect Charities
Summary: As Microsoft approaches the End of Windows 10 Support 10 in October, charities that refurbish and distribute older computers face a critical dilemma. With an estimated 240 million PCs unable to meet the rigorous hardware requirements for Windows 11, these organizations must choose between offering potentially insecure Windows 10 systems, sending them to e-waste recyclers, or considering alternative operating systems like Linux. Windows 11 requires a CPU of at least 1GHz with two cores, a minimum of 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, Secure Boot support, and TPM 2.0 compatibility. The supported Intel CPU list only accommodates processors from the 8th generation (introduced in 2017) and higher, while the AMD list starts from the Ryzen 2000 series. This exclusion affects numerous relatively recent and powerful computers that, despite having sufficient RAM and storage, do not qualify for the upgrade. "Installing Windows 10 at this juncture is ill-advised," stated Chester Wisniewski, director and global field CISO for Sophos, in an interview with Tom's Hardware. "The signs are evident. Microsoft has internally resolved to phase out this hardware, presumably to deter further usage of Windows." Wisniewski emphasizes that Windows 10 and Windows 11 share a substantial codebase, implying that vulnerabilities patched in one version can often be exploited in the other. Recent Patch Tuesdays have seen the resolution of numerous vulnerabilities, some of which were already being exploited by malefactors before patches were available.
Tumblr media
In addition to the security concerns, charities using Windows 10 must consider compliance risks. For example, charity shops employing Windows 10 for electronic point-of-sale systems may encounter compliance difficulties with regulations like GDPR once support ceases. Failing to comply can lead to substantial fines, harming the charity’s reputation and financial health. The challenge of e-waste is also significant, with only 14 to 40 percent of electronic waste in the U.S. being recycled. This could equate to approximately 1.06 billion pounds of e-waste, comparable to the weight of 320,000 cars. When electronic devices are not recycled, they often end up in landfills, where hazardous materials like lead, mercury, and cadmium can contaminate the soil. This contamination can render the soil unfit for agriculture and pose threats to drinking water supplies and aquatic ecosystems, with the incineration of e-waste also releasing harmful emissions into the atmosphere. The environmental impact of e-waste extends beyond immediate effects. The UN indicates that the annual economic cost of e-waste is $37 billion, which is projected to rise to $40 billion by 2030 unless e-waste management and policies improve.
Tumblr media
Despite these issues, numerous users will persist in using Windows 10. As reported by Statcounter, Windows 10 still holds 58.7 percent of all Windows installations, while Windows 11 accounts for 38.1 percent. The probability that a significant portion of these systems will be upgraded or replaced by October is minimal, with even fewer users likely to enroll in Microsoft's Extended Security Update program at a cost of $61 annually. Charities like PCs for People are proactively addressing this issue. CEO Casey Sorensen stated that they ceased distributing Windows 10 a year before the cutoff and now emphasize Linux Mint for older configurations. We will offer Linux laptops that are 6th or 7th gen. Any Windows laptops we distribute will be 8th gen or newer," Sorensen conveyed to the publication. PCs for People refurbishes around 140,000 PCs each year, providing affordable solutions to low-income users while sending older devices to recyclers. Sorensen notes that perceptions of Linux have shifted over the years. "A decade ago, if we provided Linux, people would ask, 'What is it?'" he shares. Nowadays, many users consider their computers to be primarily internet gateways, making user-friendly Linux distributions like Mint more widely accepted. Nonetheless, Linux still lacks certain popular platforms, such as Microsoft Office and Slack, although there are alternatives available. As charities endure the trials posed by obsolete systems, they must weigh the need for secure computing against the environmental consequences of disposal. Regardless of the path they select, it is evident that many users will continue utilizing Windows 10 well beyond its support period, leaving them open to new vulnerabilities.

I can go on an insane rant about this but if you're thinking about buying a MacBook, skip it. The hardware inside of once tends to be the same you could get from a 700-900$ Windows laptop. If you really compare the specs, youll realize you're paying a premium price for the same hardware capabilities.
Also if you don't like Windows, please just use Linux instead. It's free and is in a lot of cases run faster than Windows due to there just being less shit running by default. (Also you can dual boot Windows if you just REALLY have to have it for something)
And if you want the Mac for the #performance with #art apps (Adobe), please just build a desktop workstation. It will cost you as much as a MacBook, is easily repairable, can be upgraded, and can crank out more power for the same price
And if you NEED one specific app that ONLY runs on Mac, I'd look into setting up a virtual machine (basically like running a second computer in your first computer, and it's free) or some kind of emulation software (not sure if Wine runs Mac apps or not)
There are just many good reasons not to buy an expensive, low durability, hard to repair (almost impossible if pieces are soldered in, at least for the average PC user), locked down piece of equipment when there's way better alternatives out there
we need to be teaching kids that macbooks are shit and dont do anything or else tiktok freelancers will make them think macbooks are good

Affordable Computing: How to Find Quality Počítače Levně Without Compromising Performance
Tumblr media
In today’s digital age, owning a computer is no longer a luxury but a necessity. Whether it’s for work, education, entertainment, or staying connected, a reliable computer is essential. However, not everyone can afford the latest high-end models, which is where počítače levně—affordable computers—come into play. The good news is that it’s entirely possible to find a cost-effective machine that meets your needs without sacrificing performance. Let’s explore how to shop for a budget-friendly computer and what features to prioritize.
Why Go for Počítače Levně?
The primary advantage of opting for a budget-friendly computer is, of course, saving money. But that doesn't mean you're getting a subpar device. With technological advancements, even low-cost computers are now capable of handling a variety of tasks efficiently. Whether you need it for basic office work, web browsing, streaming, or light gaming, there’s an affordable option for every user.
Types of Affordable Computers
There are various categories of počítače levně, each catering to different needs:
Laptops: Budget laptops have become increasingly powerful over the years, with many models offering impressive features at an affordable price. Chromebooks, for example, are known for being lightweight and easy to use, perfect for students or anyone needing a simple, portable machine for web-based tasks.
Desktop PCs: Desktop computers tend to offer better value for money compared to laptops, especially for those who don’t need portability. You can find desktops with solid performance, ample storage, and upgrade potential at a fraction of the cost of high-end models.
Refurbished Computers: Buying a refurbished computer is an excellent way to save money while still getting a powerful machine. These are pre-owned computers that have been repaired, cleaned, and tested for functionality. Many come with warranties, making them a safe and economical choice.
Mini PCs: Compact and often more affordable than full-sized desktops, mini PCs are great for those with limited space. Despite their size, they can handle most everyday tasks and often come at a lower price point.
What to Look for in Počítače Levně
When shopping for a budget computer, it’s essential to prioritize the features that matter most for your specific use case:
Processor (CPU): The CPU is the brain of the computer, determining its overall performance. While budget computers may not come with the latest processors, look for models with at least a mid-range chip from Intel or AMD, such as Intel Core i3 or Ryzen 3, which can handle basic multitasking and light productivity.
Memory (RAM): For smooth performance, especially when running multiple applications at once, aim for at least 8GB of RAM. Many budget computers come with 4GB, which may be sufficient for basic tasks but could slow down if you’re running more demanding software.
Storage: Opt for an SSD (Solid State Drive) over a traditional HDD (Hard Disk Drive). Even a small SSD, such as 128GB, can significantly speed up your computer by reducing boot times and improving overall responsiveness.
Screen Quality: If you’re choosing a laptop, screen quality can greatly affect your user experience. Look for a resolution of at least 1920x1080 (Full HD) to ensure sharp visuals.
Operating System: Consider what operating system works best for you. Chromebooks, which run Chrome OS, are generally cheaper but are limited to web-based apps. If you need more versatility, look for budget computers running Windows or Linux.
Additional Tips for Saving on Computers
Wait for Sales: Major sales events like Black Friday, Cyber Monday, or back-to-school promotions are great opportunities to snag a počítač levně at a discounted price.
Compare Models: Before making a purchase, compare models from different brands. You may find a better deal by opting for a lesser-known manufacturer offering similar specs.
Consider Future Upgrades: If you’re buying a desktop, check if it allows for future upgrades, such as adding more RAM or storage. This way, you can extend the lifespan of your computer without needing to buy a new one too soon.
Conclusion
Finding počítače levně that meet your computing needs without breaking the bank is easier than ever. By focusing on essential features and being mindful of sales and deals, you can purchase an affordable computer that performs well for years to come. Whether you’re a student, professional, or casual user, there’s a budget computer out there to suit your lifestyle.

Best Ways to Repurpose Your Old Laptops for New Uses
Tumblr media
If you have an old laptops collecting dust, you may be wondering what to do with it. Rather than throwing it away, there are numerous creative and practical ways to repurpose old laptops and give them a second life. With the growing popularity of renewed laptops and refurbished laptops, it’s easier than ever to extend the life of aging devices in ways that benefit both you and the environment. Whether it’s turning your device into a media server or donating it for a worthy cause, let’s explore the best ways to repurpose your old laptops for new uses.
1. Turn Your Old Laptop into a Home Media Server
Making a home media server out of an old laptop is one of its most useful conversions. If you have a vast collection of movies, music, or photos, you can store them all on your laptop and stream the content to other devices in your home, such as smart TVs or tablets. By installing software like Plex, your old laptop can serve as a central hub for all your digital entertainment.
2. Use It as a Learning Tool
Old laptops can be perfect for children or students who need a device for basic tasks like writing assignments, conducting research, or attending online classes.

Everythinng You Need To Know About RDP - Remote Desktop Protocol
Tumblr media
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a powerful tool that has revolutionized how we connect, manage, and access remote computers. Whether you are an IT professional managing multiple servers, a business owner accessing your office computer from home, or a tech enthusiast curious about remote computing, RDP offers a convenient and secure way to connect remotely. If you want to buy RDP Admin, eldernode.com provides many solutions tailored to your needs. This article will delve into what RDP is, how it works, its benefits, security considerations, and how you can use it effectively. What is RDP? RDP is simply Remote Desktop Protocol, a proprietary protocol developed by Microsoft that enables users to connect to another computer on a network connection. The protocol is designed to provide remote access to a desktop interface, allowing users to control and manage the remote machine as if they were physically present. RDP is built into Windows operating systems, but clients are also available for macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, making it a versatile tool for cross-platform remote access. How Does RDP Work? RDP works by transmitting the remote computer's screen to the local computer and sending back keyboard and mouse inputs from the local computer to the remote one. Here’s a basic overview of the process: - Initiation: The user on the local machine opens the RDP client and enters the IP address or hostname of the remote computer they wish to connect to. They must also enter valid credentials (username and password) to authenticate the connection. - Establishment of Connection: Once the credentials are verified, an encrypted connection is established between the local and remote computers. This is achieved through network protocols, primarily the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). - Data Transmission: The remote computer sends the graphical interface to the local machine, displayed in the RDP client window. The local machine sends back user inputs (keyboard strokes, mouse clicks) to the remote computer, allowing the user to control the remote desktop. - Session Management: RDP supports multiple sessions, meaning several users can connect to a remote server simultaneously. Each user gets an isolated session, which they can customize without affecting others. - Disconnection: The session can be terminated by either the user or the remote computer; at this point, the connection is closed, and any open applications on the remote desktop remain running unless explicitly closed. Benefits of RDP RDP offers numerous benefits, making it a popular choice for remote access and management: - Convenience: With RDP, users can access their desktop and applications from anywhere with an internet connection. This flexibility primarily benefits businesses with remote workers or IT professionals managing servers in different locations. - Cost-Effective: RDP eliminates the need for physical presence, reducing travel costs and downtime. It also enables centralized IT infrastructure management, reducing the need for multiple licenses or physical machines. - Resource Efficiency: RDP allows users to access powerful remote servers from low-powered local devices. This means even a lightweight laptop or tablet can control a high-performance server, saving on hardware costs. - Multi-Platform Support: RDP is not limited to Windows; it supports a wide range of operating systems, making it a versatile solution for businesses with diverse IT environments. - Security: RDP provides secure access to remote systems with features like Network Level Authentication (NLA), encryption, and session monitoring. Security Considerations While RDP is a powerful tool, it comes with security risks that must be managed carefully. Here are some critical security considerations: - Brute Force Attacks: RDP servers exposed to the internet are often targeted by brute force attacks, where attackers try numerous username and password combinations to gain unauthorized access. Using strong passwords and enabling account lockout policies is essential to mitigate this risk. - Unpatched Vulnerabilities: Like any software, RDP can have vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit. Keeping your RDP server updated with the latest patches and security updates is crucial. - Encryption: Ensure your RDP connection is encrypted to prevent eavesdropping on your data. RDP uses 128-bit encryption by default, but you can configure it to use stronger encryption protocols. - Network Level Authentication (NLA): NLA requires users to authenticate before establishing a session, reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Make sure NLA is enabled on your RDP server. - Firewall Configuration: Restrict access to your RDP server by configuring firewalls to allow only specific IP addresses or using VPNs to create a secure tunnel. - Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Adding an extra layer of security with MFA makes it much harder for attackers to gain access, even if they obtain your password. How to Set Up RDP Setting up RDP on a Windows machine is relatively simple. Here’s a step-by-step guide: 1. Enable RDP on the Remote Computer - Go to System Properties on the remote computer. - Under the Remote tab, check the box that says "Allow remote connections to this computer." - Choose users who can connect remotely. By default, administrators have access, but you can add other users as needed. 2. Configure Firewall Rules - Ensure that the Windows Firewall (or any other firewall) allows RDP connections. You can create an inbound rule for port 3389 (the default RDP port). 3. Set Up the RDP Client - On your local machine, open the Remote Desktop Connection client. - Enter the IP address or hostname of the remote computer. - Enter your username and password to authenticate and connect. 4. Advanced Configuration - Consider changing the default RDP port from 3389 to another for enhanced security. - Use a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to securely connect to the remote desktop, especially if you’re accessing it online. Everyday Use Cases for RDP RDP is widely used in various scenarios across different industries. Here are some everyday use cases: - Remote Work: With the rise of remote work, many businesses rely on RDP to provide employees access to their office desktops and applications from home. - IT Support and Management: IT professionals use RDP to manage servers, provide remote support, and troubleshoot issues without being physically present. - Education: Educational institutions use RDP to provide students and staff access to specialized software and lab environments from any location. - Healthcare: RDP enables healthcare professionals to securely access patient records, medical software, and other resources from different locations. - Software Development and Testing: Developers use RDP to test software on different environments and configurations without needing multiple physical machines. Alternatives to RDP While RDP is a popular choice for remote access, there are other protocols and tools available that might better suit specific needs: - Virtual Network Computing (VNC): VNC is an open-source protocol that provides similar functionality to RDP but is platform-agnostic and doesn't require a Windows machine. - TeamViewer: A commercial remote access tool that is easy to set up and use, especially for non-technical users. It supports cross-platform connections and is widely used for remote support. - AnyDesk: A lightweight remote desktop tool that offers fast connections, even on slow networks. It’s beneficial for remote work and support. - Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops: A more advanced solution for businesses that must deploy and manage virtual desktops and applications on a large scale. Conclusion Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a versatile and powerful remote access and management tool. Its ability to connect users to their desktops and applications from anywhere makes it indispensable in today’s increasingly remote and distributed work environments. However, with its benefits come security risks that must be carefully managed. By understanding how RDP works, implementing best practices for security, and considering alternatives when necessary, you can harness the full potential of RDP while keeping your systems safe and secure. Whether you're a business owner, IT professional, or tech-savvy individual, mastering RDP can give you the flexibility and efficiency needed to stay connected and productive digitally.

Ultimately it's what happens when you have so many moving parts written by so many people. Back in the day there were just as many security holes but they just never got updated unless people sent away for an update disk! Worms used to spread through common vulnerabilities all the time.
By and large operating-system level security features can significantly ameliorate the security risk of misbehaving applications but you don't want to leave that kind of low hanging fruit lying around in case some inventive attacker can chain together a few vulnerabilities into something more severe. There's also various compliance requirements that companies have to meet in order to stay on the good side of financial and privacy regulations.
(The EU has recently been trying to force all open source projects to take direct responsibility for all security issues with short and strictly enforced timelines! Not in full effect and final negotiations made it much less relevant for non-profits, but a lot of people are worried)
Extremely serious vulnerabilities are rare but when they appear you need to be able to patch them efficiently, which is part of what the distribution model is meant to allow.
Re: containers, on reflection I'm using efficient there in a pretty specific way. The one way containers are efficient is that they allow multiple programs running their own userspace to share computational resources much more efficiently than say, virtual machines. In a VM you generally have to have pretty hard segmentation of things like RAM, and while you can get away with more abstractions around CPU time and disk space, they still have a reasonable amount of overhead.
In large scale software deployments you don't really care about storage space for your application, generally. Storage is cheap when you're talking about software. Even the most fully loaded Linux install pales in comparison to a few hours of high res video or the result of a large simulation or a significant database. What you're economizing on with containers is on rack space, or cloud costs, you can now fit all the compute needed for all your tasks into fewer cores, fewer servers, less RAM.
Containers also aren't that space inefficient. The most popular container runtime for a lot of things is Alpine, which has a base size of 5MB, because the trick with containers is you inherit the kernel of your host system, you just bring the userspace, and you can make userspace small enough to fit in a toaster (which is another application of Alpine: embedded systems). You add that to the overlayFS system used by most modern container systems and you can share the underlying common files for multiple containers and then add on the differences and additional layers for each unique container.
(Alpine does six-month release cycles, so they don't tend to be as out of date as, say, Ubuntu (who have two-year release cycles with early freezes a few months before release), and for users who want it Alpine has their Edge development repos for up to date packages, I'm currently blogging on my Alpine Edge laptop.
I pick on Ubuntu here a lot more because unlike some other stables, they have no option for a rolling release repo. SUSE has a similar thing to Alpine, where development is done in the rolling Tumbleweed distribution which then becomes the stable, which gives you some flexibility. Debian has their testing and unstable repos, and even Red Hat has CentOS Stream.)
Reminded why I never use Ubuntu in my personal life! Installed fzf from the repos on my work laptop and it's version 0.44! The current release of fzf is 0.58! Don't ship packages that are over a year out of date! Just say no!
