Rso... they gotta figure something out
CCool tool that disables some of those obscure low hanging fruits
Ewindows next move will be to turn windows into a linux distro /s
Rwindows is posix compatible lmao
CUnironically that would be a genius move from Microsoft
CJust make uber Wine and embrace Linux
R(some caveats apply) (dont ask about the caveats)
CEssentially the same thing they did with Edge
Rwindows will never abandon the nt kernel
Rwhich is fair, it's quite good

Hunbelievable mental image of ransomware breaking because of a glibc update and the malware developers sending a report to gnu
Ri am pretty sure this happened before
Ei got a new ear in bluetooth that has an android app, ill try now to make it run on waydroid see what happens
Ri seem to recall some malware breaking due to a dependency upgrade
Rbut like, linux is a huge malware target... just... not desktop linux
Dyup

CWhich is good, means they're getting reported and fixed
Rright
CMicrosoft will leave some gaping holes in Windows security and wing it

Hreally it just comes down to windows being cheaper and easier to enroll in a corporate setting than linux
Honce enrolled, the stupidity barely matters
Rthere is no "buisness case" in volunteer projects, but they do exist in paid projects
Rso things like creating a usability feature that could be exploited can be a buisness case
Hyeah that's why companies like red hat and suse and canonical exist lol
CMost desktop Linux development is done for RHEL
Ryep
Rlets just say a big fat paycheck is a good counter argument in a technical disagreement
CAnd Fedora, which is the developer hook for RHEL
