Warning: only do this in a well confined network because of the SMBv1 has serious security implications!
Temporarily allowing SMBv1 makes it easier to transfer files from/to ancient Windows XP (virtual) machines.
Sometimes you need those to support hardware for which more modern drivers or support do not exist.

Ik heb niet alleen prikangst, maar ook onderzoek in ziekenhuizen vind ik eng, dus voorbereiding hierop is voor is belangrijk, want uiteraard ga ik wel (en ben ik de rest van de dag uitgeteld vanwege de propofol).
Deze folders van het LUMC hielpen me de afgelopen dagen met voorbereiding:

Like me, [Archive.is] Kristian Köhntopp is a nerd.
Unlike me, Kris bumped into character encoding issues for just about all his digital life. That started about the same time as mine, but again unlike me: he was way more involved in the technical aspects of it.

[Archive.is] Sciuridae Hero on Twitter: “How are the X-PhishMe and X-PhishMeTracking headers not part of every mail filtering program out there?! Security Industry Idiocy.”
Kristian Köhntopp made me aware of these headers in [Archive.is] Kristian Köhntopp on Twitter: “Nach einer IRC Helpdesk Session: Macht Deine Firma sinnlose “Phishing Trainings”, in denen sie Mitarbeitern Fake-Nachrichten sendet um zu sehen, wer da was anklickt? Weil diese Firmen ihre Existenz rechtfertigen müssen, sind alle diese Nachrichten per X-Header trackbar.”.

A while ago [Archive.is] Adam Jacob on Twitter: “Let’s say nice things about technology today. I’ll start.
