locahosr443 Thats what pisses me off so much: #MS is a #usability and #security nightmare for #users and #admins. It's really difficult to manage well especially for #SMB Its bloody expensive for the mediocre and increasingly buggy products you get. They shove services down your throat like #Copilot and #Recall#Windows updates regularly break stuff. Yet folks cling on to it for dear life because it is what they know #adminlife
Santé Canada met en garde la population que les bougies se rallumant automatiquement précédemment disponibles sur Amazon peuvent présenter un risque d’incendie
#diabetes PSA: the FDA just issued a recall for FreeStyle Libre 3 and Libre 3 plus sensors for reporting wrong levels, wity very serious consequences. if you are #diabetic or know someone who is, send this link to them, as this sensor is very popular worldwide and should be replaced with a non-faulty model ASAP.
"Just before reading your message, I was in a video call with an acquaintance, a girl who is ground crew for an airline and can tell you that she reported flight disruptions with Airbus planes. She couldn't pinpoint the problem but remarked how stressful it was dealing with many passengers on delayed or cancelled flights. ....
Wow! She sent me an impressive video of a terminal jam packed wall to wall passengers from cancelled flights. Thousands. "
CachyOS is a pain in the ass to install through #VirtualBox. I've had nothing but problems with #Arch derivatives when testing through a VM. Once installed, it's a snappy little Desktop Environment. XFCE is my environment of choice.
Bazzite, a flavor of #Fedora, is strange. The default installation size is 22.1GB. 4 CPU cores & 4GB Ram if not enough hardware. Seems kind of bloated to me.
I bring this up, as #GamersNexus & #Level1Techs started the conversation of transitioning out of the #Microsoft ecosystem, due to #Recall and wanted a baseline OS for not only Testing purposes, but for an audience that is primarily #Windows users that are connected to that ecosystem in one form or another. Is either #Bazzite or #CachyOS#Linux ready for prime time? What is your #distro of choice? Respond below.
It's offered by Microsoft. That's enough reason to be wary.
Despite the guardrails, "it’s the convenience of Hello that worries me."
"I have major concerns about Hello also unlocking a searchable database of everything I’ve done on that PC for the last few months using Windows Hello."
This is really wild: Microsoft is pushing more and more #spyware features into everyday products to steal all of your data:
"#Copilot#Vision is an extension of Microsoft's divisive Recall [...] is designed to analyze everything you do on your computer [...] by capturing constant screenshots and feeding them to an optical character recognition system and a large language model for analysis – but where #Recall works locally, #CopilotVision sends the data off to #Microsoft servers." 🕵️
Microsoft hat seine KI-Suche Recall an die Erfordernisse der europäischen Gesetzgebung angepasst. Mit dem Juli-Update ist sie nun für Copilot+-PCs verfügbar.
Name the best US to EU switch you have made so far
