a medical professional in berlin asked me for a referral for paid help migrating from windows to debian on their work laptop (thinkpad), is there a cool small company (or freelancer) in berlin who does that sort of thing that you can recommend?

@mntmn@mastodon.social There's the Linux café at Technikmuseum: https://technikmuseum.berlin/veranstaltung/linux-cafe/ + I'll repost in case someone in my timeline does such things for money.

@mntmn paid help?? Very bad. Use Ai. Seriously it can help you step by step
@Hermetikoz @mntmn that is very bad advice!
1. A person asking for paid help is usually asking, because he doesn’t have the time or interest in doing it themselves
2. Using #AI for something where you have no clue will likely lead to data loss and is just a waste of timeAI (or rather #LLM) sounds like it knows what it writes, but it doesn’t actually understand it. Never forget that!

@mntmn since he is asking for commercial support forums, Stammtisch etc are going to be offputting.
Ich helfe gerne. PM to schedule a call?

AI? Ewww. If you're going to go without help, the docs are fine.
But the OP asked for a company or person to help, this is not an answer to that question.

@Hermetikoz It is, in fact, not pointless to pay someone for a Debian installation. Especially if you just want to send your computer away and get it back done, and you'll figure out the rest of the Linux stuff when you get it (or you already have figured out the Linux stuff). #lang_en
@ellenor2000
Thanks Ellenor.
Yes, some users don't know very good about pc systems.
Thank you again for your understanding approach.

@mntmn I know I'm digressing, but if it is not secret, I'm curious what they use for their directory/authentication server. FreeIPA?

@mntmn and I thought this was kind of the thing you were into!?
I don't know mntmn at all, but loking at the task:
Knowing Linux well and using it all the time is different from porting a well-entrenched Windows user to Linux. Perhaps dedicated expertise is a useful thing to look for.

@mntmn Do you like search enginee, use it. Cominity or forums. So you can do task alone. Very easy..
I learn it myselfAI is the spirit of the times; you can't escape it.
@Hermetikoz @mntmn You should just fuck right off.

@mntmn I'd suggest where the Berlin Linux Users Group meet on Wednesday evenings, Lehrter Straße 53.
I went to a couple of their meetings a few months ago and the location is a small business community of Linux geeks, very knowledgeable. One of them is bound to be able to do this or point you in the right direction.

@Hermetikoz @mntmn
Paid help can be held accountable for getting the job done and would likely have insurance and follow correct procedure that would be required for a doctor or hospital system that needs to follow specific regulations and requirements.Following AI on your own, while it certainly can help you learn, is not something that can be held accountable if messes up your machine or loses data.
For important business systems, paid help makes sense for liability and time reasons. -

@mntmn a) @topio in Moabit (https://www.topio.info/) are doing that for a donation.
b) If in Schöneberg or very near Schöneberg, I can do it.

@mntmn The Technikmuseum Berlin seems to regularly organize Linux Cafes, I'm sure there are other non profits that do this as well in Berlin.

@Hermetikoz @mntmn Seriously fuck off using replies to people's requests for real help as a chance to promote the slop machines that rotted your brain.
@dalias I use block button generously these days. Too many who fill my bubble with A.I. slop. @Hermetikoz@mastodon.social @mntmn
