Its called Linux Mint. Easier to install than windows, significantly cheaper, and frankly easier to configure.

Wooki ,

Microsoft is getting desperate to steal your IP so they can train their AI.

Can someone sue the living shit out of them and start setting precedents please and thanks.

Wooki , (edited )

Love how you cherry picked a bunch of old news not relevant . Its 2024, not 2003.

Development experience in linux is significantly better. Get off the cult and join the overwhelming majority industry which is built on it. Your skills and IP will be better off and protected for it.

If the microsoft product teams can develop on macbooks you bet your arse you can develop for any platform on Linux, and frankly most cloud platform preference opensource. Skill issue.

Wooki ,

Apparently it was wasting time trying to circumvent a product built to steal IP and invade privacy. Every update will reset any customisations and plenty have ignored group policy. Microsoft are implemtning access controls that will also remove the ability to customise as deep as you have been (kernel level protection) so bye bye admin rights.

You want a declarative operating system? NixOS. It will change how you approach templating and the standard environment.

Its config language and structure doco is annoyingly lacking but the community fills the gap with the added benefit of everyone sharing configs. Its also 2024, Linux is vastly different than it used to be. Hell nvidia is stepping up because cloud AIs..

Wooki ,

Wrong.

Microsoft can only operate as a franchise overseas. You know this thing called trade law in other countries. Contrary to popular American belief, they are not the center of the world

Wooki ,

Read the comment and reply to it, you missed the entire point of their comment.

Lol “days”

.net can compile just fine without it. Or choose one of the far more popular non Microsoft languages that wont have the problems expected simply because vendor lock in. If you are developing on .net your code is obselete with 15 vulnerabilities the day you release.

Skill issues.

Step away from the coolaid, take a step back and explore the industry at large

Wooki ,

method exists, but the trait bounds were not satisfied

Bethesda showing how it will go bankrupt before it learns. Time to fire the ceo!

Wooki , (edited )

Their latest pay to play for an existing quest which was removed from the game is proving without doubt how Bethesda is not learning or listening.

Ignore the hype, the history and recent events of this company is proving that the senior executive must be fired before it can succeed.

Wooki ,

For the next 4 weeks

Wooki ,

You’ve missed the point; group policies are being ignored and break with every other update as Microsofts cadence and quality assurance continues to enshitify.

Wooki ,

Don’t go to the article, it’s click bait garbage

Wooki ,

Its not laziness, they have lost developers support over time and lets be honest here, Windows 8 arm was roundly laughed out the door. Expectations are now marketing hallucinated by copilot.

This is typical Microsoft “agile”: minimum effort and delivery.

He’s a grifter from way back, still is

VC’s dont know about this one trick

Its comical

Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war' ( kyivindependent.com )

President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine's partners "are afraid of Russia losing the war" and would like Kyiv "to win in such a way that Russia does not lose," Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent....

Wooki ,

No it hasnt.

If you think Russian would nuke “their land” or at best a “bordered neighbour”. You’ve lost the plot. Also the title of their ag industry “lost plots”…

Wooki ,

Fresh food is weirdly expensive in the US. Got to give the US props for being consistently expensive when it comes to health related expenses I guess.

It seems bizarre for such a rich country to have the priorities so backwards.

health and well being? Nah.

Wooki ,

Move to straya, plenty of jobs atm, free healthcare, not a lot of homes and no where near the consumer brand choice. But it also means rich are not as rich, and no guns (by comparison) so kids are safe in schools!

Most supermarkets have plenty of fresh food, its better and cheaper to buy from farmers markets, but you can get by with the super chains( not going to get into the profiteering from them, save that for another day).

Wooki ,

So they can train openai on your comments? No thanks. Its done for good IMO.

Wooki ,

The fediverse arguably has more bots, just not trying to hide the fact

Wooki ,

The profiteering and shitting on the community is what got me to remove my content and account. As an owner of the platform, they cant have it both ways.

Wooki ,

Cool story.

The anticheat came after the prolific hackers started

Wooki ,

Obviously you’ve never played the game with that L take.

Wooki ,

t was over simplified and limited creating massive wasted realestate.

If it wasn’t for the mole they could have gone droid a whole lot earlier and i suspect, flourished as a result.

Such a waste.

[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don't come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don't really get upset by it...

Wooki ,

Have you heard about our lord and saviour of our sins?

Wooki ,

Your first sentence answers the actual question.

Well..aCtUAllY

If you consider Australia unstable, sure, maybe for humans, the animals are fine unless you’re Steve Irwin, just dont go diving with stingrays

I dont want your shitty old battery.

That is why.

Wooki ,

Windows 11 is garbage:

  1. UI is garbage, from right click to the taskbar, its a alpha release being sold to as complete product.
  2. settings missing alot of control panel items and you cant go back in some cases for even simple things like sound device management, network management, all settings are far far from parity.
  3. Poor hardware compatibility, bsod on same hardware is common occurance.
  4. Privacy invasive spyware. From the search service to the telemetry. Its a data mining platform
  5. Security is terrible. Internet connected Services are on by default that shouldnt be like search and telemetry. Any on by default service, like telemetry can and are abused with zero days. Mandated cloud services as a bandaid to poor local account security. Security is a bandaid full stop, from the kernel to cloud services its not secure by design.
Wooki ,

Libre calc Scripting imo is more matured and better than excel. Better and far more popular language (python or javascript equally far better than vb)

Wooki ,
  1. Is absolutely still an issue expecially when manufacturers advise on disabling OS features for compatibility. Dont forget that user base you talk about, this is an OS upgrade so if its not stable, its not suitable. My god is it not stable, read kernal processor power management. Its a stability nightmare for general users.

So bother with all that mac imitation especially when the upgrade is not possible? Just buy the more power efficient, faster and improved value chrome book.

Wooki ,

I highly recommend skilling up asap. Its really eol. Nothing stopping you from changing your code to python (which is supported in excel) with the goal to migrate out to either an application or FOSS office suite. LibreOffice costs your corpo IT nothing to deploy unlike MS Office which costs to buy and keeps costing with every proprietary service and feature you use.

Wooki ,

If you havnt had children you will never know and this applied to me as well as anyone else.

To me now: I have a love for them so much I would die to protect them, they are my legacy and life has far more meaning with them in it now.

I understand her reasoning completely.

Wooki ,

You left out the biggest assumption, you assumed she knew it was fatal, fainting is very common in pregnancy for a lot of reasons. Take away this assumption and it makes sense.

Wooki ,

Again with the assumptions, you dont know when at what point. First trimester fainting is very common making it easy to dismiss and miss diagnose.

Wooki ,

No.

I read the article unlike you. Not 3rd hand interpretation.

She had been through 2 other pregnancies successfully giving birth with the experience of non fatal complication.

Their is a lot of assumption all around here. What this thread and my comment is trying to convey is some form of reason as to WHY. Something no one can answer except her ultimately.

But my god are we all armchair experts with hindsight….

Wooki ,

Great to hear you can read now pitty you didnt read my comment.

She had experienced it was not fatal by the fact she had 2 babies successfully.

Experienced it was non fatal.

“The risk is SUPER obvious. The why doesn’t matter”

You’re being overtly logical and exactly proved my origional point. Very little about having children is logical and calculated. Its emotions, feelings, doubt, love, hormones, biological instinct, more. She could have really wanted a girl or boy.
