HumanOnEarth announces they will install Linux on all computers going forward
They’ll try to make Linux illegal soon.
Major fear is corruption of the culture. There are corpos and cunts that would benefit from Steam stopping linux suppory which is a major adoption driver. Nvidia is supposedly a more difficult gpu/cpu to use with linux and the current duopoly leans heavily in their favour.
The best thing to do is to convert you closest family and friends. If you’re “the computer guy” the chances are you need to support their shitty computers anyway, so you might as well support an OS which is easier to maintain.
Use Linux.
Use LibreOffice.
Use LibreWolf or WaterFox.
Free yourselves.If you’re in the US, soon this will be arrestable for enabling terrorism.
This message is brought to you by Microsoft, for Linux Mint, and Linux Mint Debian Edition.
And Bazzite, and Fedora, and OpenSUSE.
Life has been so good with Linux.
Yes because that went so well for teams.
Which version lol. Teams? Teams new? Teams classic? Personal teams?
Wow if only anyone saw this coming
fuck no. I am not installing their SaaS bullshit. I have old editions for a reason.
Yeah, I’ve dumped all mikroshite from my devices for FOSS software. Only my work laptop has it and I never do anything personal with that. Libre Office, Thunderbird, Notesnook. Also considering Obsidian and Joplin.
Obsidian is sadly not FOSS, but aside of that, it’s amazing (and entirely user-supported, not relying on VC profit-seeking).
I’ve converted my whole family to LibreOffice. fuck MS
Laughs in LibreOffice
I will immediately uninstall it. AI is a MAJOR hindrance to what I use MS Office for.
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?
So if Microshaft is going to install these products automatically with my copy of Windows, the tools are free to use, right?
I may finally pull the plug on my full conversion to Linux this or next year. I already dual-boot and have been a single inconvenience away from kicking Windows Spyware Edition to the curb, anyways.
So if Microshaft is going to install these products automatically with my copy of Windows, the tools are free to use, right?
That’s sort of the joke of it all. Microsoft needs to tell their investors “We sold AI to 100 million new users!” to justify these bloated investments in OpenAI.
So instead of selling it as DLC, they just shave off a chunk of the 365 subscriptions and say “that was people paying for AI”.
Gross
Meh. Any word processor or spreadsheet works for me, as long as I don’t get pestered.
