The guide provides every option available, too. Starting with using their Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), to using a Virtual Machine, and even on "Bare Metal" alongside Windows.
That's right, Microsoft now tells you how to dual-boot Linux. 🤯
Windows 11 keeps trying to install different stuff, notifying you about how great edge is, requires new hardware, and more. Windows 12 is rumored to be cloud only with a subscription?...
I haven’t used #Windows as a daily driver in more than 5 years, so when I look at it, it’s with the eyes of someone who is not used to its weird, or, frankly, bad, design. I’ve worked in UX for 10 years, and some decisions Windows made are really sub-par.
And still, the bad user experience of Windows has a negative impact on #Linux desktops. Here is why!
If this happens, will it be a mass exodus to Linux/Mac? Or will people just live with it? The fact that the Steam Deck has shown great promise in playing games on Linux has made me reconsider Windows yet again.
After basically the whole #Microsoft#Azure cloud was hacked (see list of related sources on https://karl-voit.at/cloud/ ), the first follow-up incidents went public caused by missing containment actions:
If you didn't understand until now: basically EVERYTHING at Microsoft got hacked and Microsoft can't (or won't) get rid of the intruders. Everything authenticated by Microsoft is tainted. Even #Windows auth.

Thanks to your initial feedback, these include improvements like:
🗓️ Easier access to Proton Calendar
⏩ Easy migration from #Gmail
🚨 Notification badges
🔠 Improved accessibility and font support
I have been building browsers for 30 years now. First Opera and now Vivaldi. My estimate is that more than 1 billion have used one of my browsers or both. Have you?
Today, we're launching the Proton Drive #Windows app for everyone. Automatically backup and sync your files and more. Get it here: https://proton.me/drive/download.
So for blind Windows users, what mail client do you use? I'm kinda getting tired of Gmail, having to hear lots of stuff before each message, and having to turn on browse mode and arrow through all that to get to the message, all that. And Thunderbird is messy in 115. I might have to just get used to Outlook.
#Microsoft looks like it's going to be building it's tool called #Windows#Copilot directly into their OS. They're also including a Copilot in Office and Edge. Basically all Microsoft products will have a built in "assistant". If you're concerned about AI having access to your data, it's going to be much more difficult to avoid in the near future. Adding to the concern is this is black box AI. It's not open. We have no idea what's going on inside that digital head.
A lot of people often refer to #Linux based operating systems as a #Windows or a #macOS alternative, but Linux can also do a lot of things that its competitors simply can’t.
So let’s look at the things only Linux can do, and that Windows and macOS wished they could:
today I've heard for the first time about the #RigelA open-source screen reader project for #Windows written in #RustLang. Unfortunately only Readme has an English version, all other documents and code comments are in chinese, but the project seems very promising. Use Google Translate or another translator if you, like me, don't speak Chinese. https://gitcode.net/mzdk100/rigela
I've been too lazy or just content enough to work with Windows Explorer until now. But I seriously need to look for an alternative. The amount of fuckery that Microsoft has done with this app in Windows 11 is just mind-boggling. None of it needed to happen. One more crash and it's gone! it should be in the next 10 minutes.

I really don't understand how people tolerate #Windows. I booted back into my Windows 11 install tonight, and it was a total shit show.
AMD graphics driver needed to update, but it couldn't because there was a Windows update pending. When that finally finished and I rebooted, the graphics driver update took a solid 15 minutes (I have gigabit internet...)
And then the ads: "Try Xbox Game Pass!" "Turn on your OneDrive backup!"
Meanwhile, the system is running SO SLOW compared to Kubuntu.
What will you do once windows 10 is deprecated and you have to update to windows 11 or 12?

Microsoft wants to move Windows fully to the cloud (www.theverge.com)
If this happens, will it be a mass exodus to Linux/Mac? Or will people just live with it? The fact that the Steam Deck has shown great promise in playing games on Linux has made me reconsider Windows yet again.
