Linux has way more CVEs: lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/
(Partially because they don’t respect CVEs and assign CVEs to everything)
CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 hours ago
Measuring number of CVEs is not a great metric anyway.
Linux is open source, so people can find more things wrong with it and fix it.
It just means that Linux users and developers are more diligent in finding and removing vulnerabilities.

Didn’t they call it “the most secure” a while ago?
Why are they allowed to openly lie?

Right after that slide the guy is talking about how Microsoft is “committed to remaining the most reliable and secure platform”…

In the case of marketing, it’s just considered an opinion, mostly because if anything like that is ever put forth to a Judge, there’s 900 odd ways to loophole it.

It could be called puffery. A claim so ridiculous that no reasonable person would consider it a claim
ultranaut@lemmy.world 4 hours ago
Their official marketing is to call Windows 11 “the most secure version of Windows ever” or something along those lines. They definitely use “the most secure” in their marketing, but I think they do it in a way where it is only in reference to previous consumer versions of Windows if you actually parse out what is being said.

A probably a bit political for this topic, but most companies are allowed to lie about most things. Only a few things that they’re not allowed to lie about.
PraiseTheSoup@lemm.ee 6 hours ago
and for those few things they’re not allowed to lie about they pull out every trick in the book to come as close to lying as possible without outright doing it.

superkret@feddit.org 14 hours ago
As an admin it gets so much worse. Twice a year your admin portal gets renamed, redesigned, merged with and/or split from another one, and all those changes are done halfway.
Which means some settings are only on the old version and others only on the new. Then the old one is discontinued even though the new one doesn’t have all its functions, yet.
So you completely rely on Powershell. But wait, there’s 2 incompatible versions of it now.I’m currently thinking about a career change, after reading in Microsoft’s official documentation that you need to install the new version of Powershell, import the beta version of several commandlets and then run a long script provided by them, only to keep every user on your org from creating their own Teams teams.
And their newest feature is allowing every user to put in their credit card info and buy MS products without running it by IT. It’s enabled by default, and you have to click on a slider to disable it individually for every. single. product. Microsoft. offers.themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works 13 hours ago

I’ve been doing linux admin and honestly I haven’t been looking back. My breaking point was Microsoft pushing a kb that rebooted domain controllers for no reason.

And their newest feature is allowing every user to put in their credit card info and buy MS products on the company domain without running it by IT.

LordWiggle@lemmy.world 11 hours ago
Most open for frustration. Most open for ads. Most open for taking away control from the user.
Trust me, in a few years windows will be a monthly subscription, still filled with ads and no control over your own pc. Windows 10 will turn to a yearly subscription already. 30 dollars per year per pc for security updates. Office is already subscription based. Companies smell money, want to turn everything to a subscription.
Jesus_666@lemmy.world 8 hours ago
Windows 360¹ will cost 30 bucks a year (adjusted for inflation) and will automatically upgrade you to the latest version of Windows as soon as it comes out. Additional benefits include improved security by blocking non-Store software and having your OS settings managed by Microsoft – Windows 360 will even automatically restore them if they should end up getting changed, e.g. if Recall somehow ends up disabled.
¹ Not to be confused with Windows 365, which is an entirely different thing.

Most open to making money at the expense of security.
"“What they were telling me was counterintuitive to everything I’d heard at Microsoft about ‘customer first,’” Harris said. “Now they’re telling me it’s not ‘customer first,’ it’s actually ‘business first.’”
DiCola, Harris’ then-supervisor, told ProPublica the race to dominate the market for new and high-growth areas like the cloud drove the decisions of Microsoft’s product teams. “That is always like, ‘Do whatever it frickin’ takes to win because you have to win.’ Because if you don’t win, it’s much harder to win it back in the future. Customers tend to buy that product forever.”
Burninator05@lemmy.world 7 hours ago
Who in their right mind would ever think that any publicly traded company is consumer first? Their only goals are short term profit followed long term profits. Everything else is in pursuit of those two things.

I had just hit the button on a recording session last night, and a fucking full page “ARE YOU PREPARED FOR THE EOL OF WINDOWS 10!!” (paraphrased) popped up over my DAW. Yeah, I’m prepared alright Microsoft. I’ve got a flash drive with Linux ready to install if you keep pulling shit like this. It’s going to suck because a lot of audio software developers are garbage with Linux support, but if Windows is just as garbage, there’s no reason not to migrate.

They’re actually trying to force people onto 11 now? That windows partition that never gets booted sounds really close to becoming more storage for a windows-free life
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 5 hours ago
Mine went bye-bye a while ago.
I initially installed linux on an additional smaller ssd. I recently set out to swap that setup around, so that windows gets to be on the smaller drive.
Except that after moving Endeavour to the big ssd… I just didn’t bother with setting up windows again. Haven’t needed it yet.
LordWiggle@lemmy.world 11 hours ago
Go DAWless. Buy a Synthstrom Deluge for example. Still need a DAW for recording and mastering though :/ I wish there was Ableton for Linux. “-if you keep pulling shit like this” I can tell you without a doubt they are just going to intensify shit like this instead of stopping. I’m thinking of switching my main pc to Linux and use my old win10 pc disconnected for DAW. No viruses and hackers when there’s no internet. No Microsoft ads either.
KuzhinierSileon@lemmy.world 9 hours ago
If I could make a suggestion, try already swapping to FOSS while ok windows to make the transition to linux easier on yourself. That is what I did, and it did wonders to help me become better acclimated to Linux.
You could also see if you can run DAW on a VM in Linux or see if your software is supported with WINE. That way you could potentially just run the windows application in Linux without a VM.
rottingleaf@lemmy.world 7 hours ago
For audio specifically you might find FreeBSD easier to set up. As a DAW, not as a desktop in general.
ALSA+PulseAudio\Pipewire+JACK are kinda messy compared to newpcm+JACK .
