This elusive "real work" that people keep referencing. All I can imagine is that you mean Visual Studio IDE jockying or Microsoft Office stuff. Microsoft had to embed a gimped Linux inside itself with WSL just to get Docker working. Virtualization just sucks on Windows. There isn't some great a Windows selling point like how FreeBSD has jails, bhyvie, zfs on root. The only advantage Windows has is more corporate software, it being preinstalled on new computers, and inertia.

Not to mention forced updates. You can turn off multiple different services in the registry and it'll still slowly undo those changes, as of turning off the Updater and the Doctor for the updator wasn't enough.

I also dislike how installing applications that are basically spyware is way more acceptable on Windows and even the norm.

Over the past few days I've been going through the various music players on linux and noticed some sound worse than others. Strawberry seems to be the most recommended but it sounds worse to me than audacious does, and I'm pretty sure it's not placebo.
Can any loonix audiophiles chime in? It's not something I'm super anal about but I'm curious about what most people here use assuming you've compared it with the other options.

Hi everyone,

I want to share an update following my absence over the past few months.

I have encountered some challenges but the most serious one is that Microsoft terminated the account I have used for years to sign Windows drivers and the bootloader. You can see below a screenshot of the message shown when I tried to sign in.

Microsoft did not send me any emails or prior warnings. I have received no explanation for the termination and their message indicates that no appeal is possible.

I have tried to contact Microsoft through various channels but I have only received automated replies and bots. I was unable to reach a human.

This termination impacts my work beyond VeraCrypt and has consequences for my daily job.

Currently I'm out of options.

It’s because of the BlackLotus vulnerability and the 2011 Secure Boot DBX key that will be deprecated in July 2026. They aren't targeting VeraCrypt deliberately. You lot have posted over 100 shitposts with zero actual knowledge, which is honestly pathetic.

That French baguettehead should have known better, considering this security issue has been public for three years. Microsoft has been screaming enterprise mitigation since 2023. Imagine writing encryption software for Windows and having no clue that your signed binaries and dependencies rely on an ancient Secure Boot key.

You can also make your devices got your server when they knock 1.1.1.1. or example.com etc. But that technically is wrong. Nobody is stopping you though.

i offer one time purchase for complete home server package. It's a highly curated collection that i believe every home should have accessible to them.

there will be hundreds of thousands of competitors in short time i'm sure. There's nothing special about what i've done as the other guy has pointed out, however recreating what i've done isn't easy either. It's well worth the journey however. you will be changed by doing the journey

It's incredible that no other company can make a mouse with a ring finger button. Even Logitech lost the knowledge to make it. Not even 1 chink knockoff after all these years. There are a billion gayming peripheral chinese companies now and not ONE has unlocked the technology to add a ring finger button to their mice and make some decent software macro software for it.

I bought this mouse in like 2018 and loved it so much I bought a second one a couple years later. The second one had the same shape but was otherwise inferior in every way. The feel was cheap and janky, the buttons were soft and spongey instead of crisp and tactile like the first one, even the cord was changed to some lower quality version.

Even if you could get it, you can't really get it anymore.

Designers are faggots in general. Nobody asked them for a second right click button. But they should've solved the middle click problem in a similar way.
Also why is there no more side scrolling wheel? What happened, does it cost a hundred dollars to have it? Or are web devs suddenly not retarded so nobody needs that? Certainly no that, as horizontal scroll is still a thing. But they don't do anything about it. Or idk, maybe they just don't hire designers anymore?
