China ditches Microsofthttps://www.straitstimes.com/asia/east-asia/china-removes-microsoft-windows-at-state-users-ahead-of-planChina is pulling the plug on an older version of Microsoft Corp’s Windows 10, tailored for government agencies, taking another step toward rooting out the world’s most popular PC software in a broader effort to reduce its dependence on foreign technology.Why it matters? Because China has not taken a more recent Windows version into use. This mean there will be no windows in China.China has largely moved to Linux by now. But it is Chinese Linux developed in China.Chinese Ministry of State Security recently told some state-linked entities to uninstall customised Windows 10 software from their machines, people familiar with the matter said.That moves up the schedule to discontinue the operating system by several months, they added, underscoring Beijing’s increasing discomfort with using a key US technology.CMIT, a joint venture between Microsoft and state-owned China Electronics Technology Group Corp, was founded in 2016 to help ensure Windows 10 is compliant with Beijing’s security requirements. Windows 10 was released in 2015 in USA.

>>109594062> This mean there will be no windows in China.No, it means there will be no windows at the Chinese government.
>>109594062>implying Linux isn't already backdoored by the NSAChina should just develop their own OS from scratch. Preferably one not based on some Unix garbage from the 1960s.Chinese OS, Chinese hardware, Chinese software. This Linux crap is a stopgap at best.
>>109594083implying they'd get paid that muchBro 0,5 € or $ a bread? I'd quit my shit immediately and pump out the most sophisticated bait on the daily. None of this amateur tier dogshit the russian, jewish and chinese newfags post here. Every fucking board, they'd never see me coming, behind 8 boxxies at a mcdonalds wifi and shit. Social engineer some promising trooning/nazifying teens and outsource it to them.
>>109594062SAAAAARS no!!! You can't do that, this is the Hinduphobia racism! We will get Trump and JeetDad Vance to nuke China for this!!!! You hurt Microsoft's income, you destroy the American dream of millions of Indian H-1B engineers madarchode!!!
>>109594107>Check your inbox my fellow Patriot.
>>109594094That would imply China is capable of innovation anon. All China can do is cheap copy. They would just clone Linux and have the same vulnerabilities.
>>109594597this so much saar. the bastard benchod cannot innovate saar only steal.
>>109594597>That would imply China is capable of innovation anon. All China can do is cheap copy.i don't know how anyone could look at companies like xiaomi or BYD and think this, or their manufacturing capabilities in general.
>>109594597chinks pump out 1000s of CS grads a year, they can surely muster atleast a shitty OS
>>109594670looking at realiity is detrimental for racist propaganda
>>109594062Does this mean that an explosion of troon outs will happen in China?
China have never innovated on a single thing they just take from others and their bugmen worker drones shit out inferior clones for cheaper.See: every technology ever.
>>109594597>>109594819Most cutting edge research is done by Chinese people
>>109594597They are innovating though. Their EV battery tech is ahead of Americas. Not to mention their general production chain technology being far more efficient. And despite the claims of them distilling from US models their AI models are built with more efficient memory usage too. Likely all of this was driven by the necessity. They've shown that once they hit the frontier they CAN innovate. It's just that they haven't ever needed to until recently.
>>109594670>Chinks exiting the century of humiliation>Americans entering the century of copePottery
>>109594062is it linux or is it harmony os 6? (hongmeng micro kernel)
>>109594597chinese hands wrote this
>>109594865>Not to mention their general production chain technology being far more efficient.>They've shown that once they hit the frontier they CAN innovate.When everything is manufactured in your country there's gonna plenty of knowleadgeable people around that can innovate and improve on previous designsWhen there's the push to move manufacturing away you're gonna left shitting in the streets
>>109594851And yet you couldn't name one single thing.
>>109594186America is the world's slut. Getting used and raped by Israel and India for their little bitch fights.
>>109594062Who in their right mind want to use os run by Hindu ceo
>>109594670Trabant achieved this 40 years ago.https://youtu.be/O_aPi8AlY5c?si=g373EgWdZIOgzvQ_
>>109594062I hope they make it available for purchase in the US. I fully trust China more than any five eyes country. Maybe trust isn’t the right word - it’s more like China has no interest in me or ways to hurt me.
>>109594094The only way the Chinese govt can know for sure is to install Trisquel GNU/Linux or another free distro on all their machines. If backdoors are found then they would be removed promptly.
>>109594062don't think i ain't noticed all these youtubers pushing anti-windows shit lining up with the chinese state dropping all windows usage these same youtubers that get their merch all made in chinese factories
>>109594062It's crazy how Windows 11 is so bad everyone prefers learning to use Linux instead, even EU gov and China gov.Highest ever percentage of Linux on desktop. And I suspect that the percentage is actually way worse than the official numbers, because on the download page of more and more websites you can notice that the links for Linux and MacOS are now first and Windows is at the end.And Microsoft still doesn't understand.
>>109595995>even youtubers and chinks can tell they are better off abandoning windows>anon can't
fuck microsarrfuck the united states of amerishart
>>109595250HarmonyOS is ARM64 only.
>>109594062>China has largely moved to Linux by now.Maybe the government but the absolute majority of private companies still use windows and will continue to do so due to the need of third party software that only runs on windows.
>>109595460Literally every hard science, pull any recent research paper and try to find one without a Chinese name
>>109595829Just use Pop OS.
Over for Michaelsoft Binbows
Nutella turned MS' focus toward Azure and Office 365 a long time ago. They don't care about desktops when people can get hooked on their cloud and office suite from wherever, whenever, on any OS.
>>109596542They still make like 20% of their money off selling Windows licenses, especially to governments and corporations
Based, the EU should stop using Windows for government computers too. Cumulatively we're paying billions for licenses to an American company instead of tailoring FOSS for our needs and paying Europeans to provide IT support.
>>109594062Based as fuck. EUV next.
>>109594062Good.Tired of windows.Tired of Linux. Looking forward to: ChinoSoft ChindowsI am sure Chindows will be great since chinamen don't employ jeets and only "develop" AI to encourage USA to continue wasting time on AI.I don't even like China, but at least they are improving their civilization instead of importing the third-world.
>>109596363>>"you couldn't name one thing" >replies without naming a single thingYou lost, thanks for handing me the victory.
>>109594094THIS.Well said, anon number 109594094!They should also stop using old electricity and transistor gate garbage from the 1960s.We the people of the world want an alternative.
>>109596084so is macos 27+
Dell used to ship PCs with this meme installed. Virtualbox calls it redhat. I doubt anyone really used it thoughhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=Z9T39O4CHzo
>>109594062CHINA NUMBER ONE!
>>109594062guaranteed bump limit chinese astroturf post
>>109594094China could simply choose a dozen pieces of hardware they already manufacture and focus on developing drivers/funding that company. They could even subsidize it while using tariffs to drive off foreign competition. They don't even need Intel/AMD if they commit to ARM.Then just strip away everything else from Linux. Developing a new OS would be a huge waste of time.
We need all OSes other than DOS to be made illegal.Restart tech from first principles.DOS and frame buffer access. Nothing else.
Windwos fucking sucks.
>>109595741Does it matter glowie? US companies are ran by jews and only care about giving DEI to fat black women. China is ran by high IQ and meritocratic.
>>109597603poor little wumao trying to promote his asiatic dystopia with fucking nothing.
>>109594745China is racist
>>109594062nowadays they have enough resources to just vibe code their own OS, they probably dont even need to use linux anymore you can vibe code kernels
>>109599779That would be funny.
>>109594186>most engineers arent fit for tech jobs unless they graduate majoring in software engineering YEAH NO SHIT RAJESH
Doesn't anybody remember that big hack of China's DOD last year? They are running Windows and Linux, and everything else is a standard enough tech stack for the hacking tools whoever did that had at hand.If I was China I'd invent a whole new IT technology which was 100% indigenous, from the CPU architecture and computer design to the OS and image and vector graphics document formats, everything, and start converting air-gapped systems to that with a goal of a final consumer and public and government rollout in the twenty year timespan. Make it impossible to get ahold of it externally until it's all perfected and opaque, just some thing you have to biometrically log into with a drop of blood.But they're bug people and the last time they had an inventor he built a clock but then they forgot how to repair, and eventually use it. That was over 900 years ago.
>>109594094>China should just develop their own OSchin-OS
>>109594597the trvke that destroyed wumaos
>>109594597kek this
>>109594670Built on what, American chips and tech? +9000 social credits for you.
This isn't going to stop Windows piracy among the chinese at all. They have a large attack surface wider than the great wall due to piracy alone.
>>109594062Its not like they were paying for licenses. No harm to Microjeet.
>>109601124Paying isn't the problem. The shrinking market share is a big problem. China's development of their own OS was crippled for a long time precisely because their own kind got lax on enforcement and allowed piracy to run rampant. If they slowly get themselves off the Microsoft opium, it won't look good for the shareholders.
>>109594851Ah yes, the totally legit scientific papers that they write, and the normalized practice of just adding names that don't belong on papers that they didn't write themselves. Every Chinese who has a PhD cheats, and they're helping incompetent that they know also cheat to achieve the same thing. There's a reason why every name on some paper is gonna be Chinese. They're not honest anon, one guy does the work and real research, the 7 others are there because that's how the Chinese work. Of course, it's possible to somewhat learn how to do real research and appear as if you're doing work when you're allowed inside the lab and can see how everyone works. Here in the US? It's the same. The Chinese cheat to get into large corporations, they use nepotism and other means such as sharing answers to hard interview questions only with each other. There is no such thing as an honest and hard working Chinese who has a PhD and is anywhere near the top.
>>109594062They know windows is a snailcat os and they need to stay vibegoding in order to beat ZOG
>>109601154>windows is a snailcat osSource?
Hilarious
>>109596687>Tired of Linux.Looking forward to: ChinoSoft ChindowsChina already has a custom Linux version under the Pagoda Linux line:https://www.bt.cn/new/product_linux.htmlIt’s widely used in phishing and smsishing infrastructure - ie credential harvesters, data collectors etc. It is downloadable from bt.cn and also comes with webserver stacks. You need to be able to read simplified Chinese to use it but they also provide a cPanel style control GUI for the CLI challenged. It’s probably powering a lot of web servers behind the Great Firewall

>>109594186>picFrom my time at uni, I've seen Indians be either the smartest or absolutely dumbest people out there. I saw PhD students that were about my age, and then I saw Indians that barely knew how to use a computer.. as a masters CS student.
>>109601089No, built on Chinese chips and tech. Palantir fent-laced-urine drone redirected. Credit score maintained
>Chinese state developed flavor of LinuxI'm surprised they didn't do this sooner. It makes a lot of sense and of course they have the resources for it. You'd have total control of your needs.
