So, Microsoft is silently installing Copilot onto Windows Server 2022 systems and this is a disaster.

How can you push a tool that siphons data to a third party onto a security-critical system?

What privileges does it have upon install? Who thought this is a good idea? And most importantly, who needs this?

#Microsoft in 2001: Linux is a cancer!

Microsoft, quietly, has published a guide on how to download and install Linux.

No... Seriously... It is not a joke...

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/install

The article was published September 29, 2023 (9 days ago).

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. 🤯

I want to ask something to #Flathub, @FlatpakApps and the entire #Linux and #FLOSS ecosystem.

Please, stop to translate "proprietary" as "propietario" in Spanish. This was something used by #Microsoft to attack #FreeSoftware in the past.

If you translate "proprietary" as "propietario", you are implying that libre and #OpenSource software doesn't have any owner, and that isn't correct.

The correct translation of "proprietary" is "privativo."

Wait, is there any way at all to install Windows 11 on a laptop *without* connecting it to the bullshit "Microsoft account" thing?

The installer seems not to give me that option. As in, there is no way to move forward without "signing in."

What the actual fsck.

Edit: trying a non-existent account worked. It then allowed me to proceed without a Microsoft account. 🤦♀️

Ojo con esto que lo más probable es que ya esté modificado y que contenga malware.

@vikzurita pues si las voy a presupuestar y se lo venderé de forma honesta. Además hay paquetes de ofimática muy buenos, llevo usando Only Office ya hace un tiempo y es muy bueno, además de tener una gran compatibilidad con los archivos de #microsoft , al final no puedo hacer trabajos de mala calidad solo por dinero.

Pero siempre propondré el software libre y asumiré las consecuencias de traer nuevos usuarios :blobaww:.

Gracias por el dato @vikzurita

#Windows 11: a #spyware machine out of users' control?
#Microsoft's latest #OS starts collecting #telemetry as soon as the #boot process ends.

For the past few years, Microsoft has been accused of regularly #violating user #privacy. Compared to the classic NT-based systems, Windows 10 and especially Windows 11 are two completely different #beasts in this regard.

#Google es ahora la empresa que más contribuye al código abierto. Lo sorprendente es que
#Microsoft ocupaba ese puesto antes.

La compañía Aiven ha publicado informe que repasa, recurriendo a datos del Open Source Contributor Index (OCSI), qué compañías son las que más contribuyen al mundo del código abierto u 'open source'.
