Mit dem nahenden #Support-Ende für #Windows10 hat #Microsoft jetzt noch einmal detaillierte Informationen zu seinen angebotenen #ESU-#Updates bereitgestellt. Auch für Privatnutzer gibt es eine Option. https://winfuture.de/news,148589.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

Haha, bei der Update Politik und Zwangsupdates wundert mich das nicht. Wer kann und will sollte sich #Linux als weitere Option ansehen.

Ja es gibt Systeme und Hardware die Windows erfordern, doch für viele ist das wirklich mittlerweile unnötig.

From https://infosec.space/@MsDropbear42/113883413775747723, five days ago :

I've shown them to dad, & asked him to play around with them over the weekend to familiarise himself with them, & hopefully satisfy himself that they will suffice

An hour ago i rang him for a quick update. He's continued to diligently work away each day in the KFedora VM, practising with OnlyOffice, Spectacle [for screenshots then manipulations], & his printer + scanner. He still sounds cautiously pleased & hopeful that this penguin caper could be a goer to replace his dying win10.

I am thus cautiously inclined to prospectively indulge in a wee 🎉 🥳 👯‍♀️

🤞 🤞 🤞

Me be trying, hoping, wishing, to persuade dad to let me finally convert his win10 pc to Linux [+ a permanently offline win10 VM for his proprietary pgms that ofc do not run in Linux, & for which he won't or can't let me convert him to FOSS equivalents], instead of doing the feared upgrade to win11, sometime in the coming months. 🤞 🤞 🤞

I've not had time yet to read all these, but so many of the links here seem to portray win11 as total tripe & hideous horror... which IMO would be some achievement given i loathed win10 from the start, so if 11 is actually even worse than 10, then... OMZ 😱

Für Nutzer von #Windows10 wird es erheblich einfacher, auf #Windows11 #24H2 zu upgraden. Das geht ab sofort nämlich direkt über die im #Betriebssystem von #Microsoft integrierte #Update-Funktion. https://winfuture.de/news,148385.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

As Windows 10 gets closer to no longer being supported, you may want to consider switching to Fedora to keep your computer running with regular security updates. Here's an easy guide on how to do that for yourself or someone else!
