Sometimes, I wake up and realize all my computers run Debian, not Windows, and it makes me smile like a root user who just found sudo access without a password.

Today I erased my NVMe NTFS games partition and formatted it with XFS, taking the next step in ditching #Windows for gaming in favor of #Linux. While going through my library I'm once again astonished how many games work out of the box with Proton / Wine nowadays, no tinkering required.

Ein Security-Forscher täuschte ChatGPT mit einem simplen Ratespiel – und erntete gültige Windows-Seriennummern, darunter sogar einen Schlüssel der Wells-Fargo-Bank. In einem kürzlich veröffentlichten Blogpost beschreibt Marco Figueroa, Technical Product Manager bei 0DIN GenAI Bug Bounty, wie ein Security-Experte ChatGPT 4 via Jailbreak dazu brachte, real existierende Windows-Seriennummern preiszugeben, darunter sogar eine private Nummer von Wells Fargo.

Windows 11 Start Menu Revealed as Resource-Heavy React Native App, Sparks Performance Concerns
Recent observations from users on the social platform X have uncovered performance issues tied to the Windows 11 Start Menu, revealing that the component

Got a little post about how to use #SSH from #Windows workstations; hopefully will complement folks running #Linux game servers to easily manage their game files with

Howto SSH with graphical app on Windows
The game servers we offer to clients usually run Linux for cost and performance reasons, but one of the common complaints from people is that managing the files on those servers is too difficult. "I can't just drag and drop files to it" or "There's no graphical interface to browse files". This guide will provide a couple tools to hopefully alleviate those issues.

Fun fact: #Windows 95 (and in some cases the later versions) had a very suboptimal implementation of idle state — they would run a busy loop, heating the CPU unnecessarily. Of course, you could work around this by installing a third-party program that would detect this state and use a more optimal HLT instruction instead.
So you could say that the purpose of such a program was to pretend that it's doing something, so that the system wouldn't fall into its own idle loop.

Ciekawostka: #Windows 95 (a w niektórych przypadkach i nowsze wersje) miały niezbyt optymalną obsługę stanu bezczynności — wpadały w pętlę nieprzerwanego sprawdzania, czy mają coś do zrobienia ("busy loop"), niepotrzebnie grzejąc procesor. Oczywiście, można było to obejść, instalując program, którego jedynym zadaniem było wykrywanie tego stanu i przejmowanie obsługi bezczynności przy wykorz…

Windows 11 is joke. Random reboots are normal apparently. After ~15 years on Linux and MacOS only, I can't understand how anyone is using this.

Day 1 with #Windows11 on my work laptop. Moving windows between screens reproducibly crashes (and thereby resets) the Windows Explorer.
I have now downloaded Explorer to be able to actually work.

If I wasn't already thinking of ditching #Windows for #Linux with the end of support for Win10, this would have decided me.

Following up on the post about old #Windows installations, we have this one about floppy disks. Or as some people know them, the "Save" icon.
