It's like Microsoft is advertising for Linux at this point, lol.

"KB5094126 patched 208 security vulnerabilities on June 9, but the update has triggered Recycle Bin display glitches, BitLocker lockouts on enterprise hardware, OneDrive failures, and system freezes, with the first fix not expected until July 14."

As a longtime Linux-only user, I love how M$ is driving people over to a new OS. But, with increased publicity and adoption makes it a growing target for hackers.

I actually would prefer windows people stay on windows...becuase I don't want my favorite operating system dumbed down...

We can send them off to ZorinOS as their first diatro. It's like Linux on training wheels lol

My middle son, who is non-technical but anti-microsoft, runs Fedora 44 (same as I do actually)

He actually really prefers it... :)

You might be able to. You might not. At this point, 50/50 chance. ;-)
