The managing editor of #OSNews switched from #Linux to #Windows for a month. He had been a Linux native, for years...

Everyone should read this, to get an idea what Linux users go through when using #Windows11 (I recognized a _lot_ of the experiences mentioned)

Personally, I'll just try to blisfully ignore all the bad stuff and continue to use #Windows11 each workday #self-flagellation

@nprofile1q... you deserve a medal for this 😉

P.S. donate to the fundraiser plz

Tomorrow Chat Control is being forced onto #Europe once again. #ChatControl has been turned down a couple of times already, but it actually has a chance of being vetted now.

Please contact your representatives today, or tomorrow morning at the latest, and oppose ChatControl (there is a contact tool on the website of #FightChatControl ).

And yes, I am fighting ChatControl to #protect my #children and those of others.

Edit: tip: call shadow rapporteurs tomorrow at 9:00

Friday afternoon, yet another exploit. #PinTheft

This one hits the 'rds' and 'rds_tcp' kernel modules: https://github.com/v12-security/pocs/

Mainly (by default) affecting #Arch

@nprofile1q...
werd getipt door een vriend dat https://code.overheid.nl/ eruit ligt met de melding "no available server".

Hoe kunnen/moeten we dit melden? En is er een mogelijkheid om de status te checken? (ben vast niet de eerste die dit meldt, toch?) 😉

Bonus vraag: is er iets wat wij (de burgers) kunnen doen?

#rijksoverheid #overheid #codeoverheidnl

Always have an exit strategy, even before you start to use a product or service. (preventing vendor lock-in)

Trigger: Was talking to a friend about service providers and wanted to more broadly share a quite well known (and thus old) advice, which the youngsters might not know about. Good advice deserves repeating.
