@catsalad (you can disable ms account login using a group policy btw, the os kinda just forgets ms accounts exists and skips right to local account creation whenever you try to add one)
@vox @catsalad Yes ahd besides the whole OOBE hack and explicit accounts to override that shit this entire shitshow should not exist and I'd rather forciblybmigrate every #Windows machine on sight to #Linux than ever do this hack myself...

@catsalad I might need this as a sticker for when I reinstall because this is not right: https://infosec.exchange/@sassdawe/112858977184587366

@catsalad @sassdawe why do you even use Microsoft stuff? sigh…

Infosec is so full of people who are so schizo about what they do vs. what they themselves use…

@kkarhan @catsalad I am not sure what problem would that solve.

@sassdawe @catsalad not having to deal with an obnoxious Govware and maintaining mental health I guess?

But that's your decision...

@catsalad similar but unrelated, do you have the post and image that says I don't wanna hear computers speak to me?
@catsalad pweeeese? pweety pweeeese? :c

@catsalad Do not dig here

(seriously - we still use nslookup natively)

@catsalad it's like a badge of honour now.

I wish it would update the desktop like the old "Windows is not activated" message used to do.

@dee @catsalad Right, I want to back up my files to some random unencrypted storage "in the cloud" because that's the epitome of security.

@ar @catsalad this but robot girl brat 

@catsalad Isnt the issue much deeper than distro?

Pretty sure there are some pretty deep level exploits which are CPU and even motherboard level which makes most distros vulnerable.

@catsalad It was bitching so much I just installed Linux instead. Fuck off Microsoft.

@catsalad

Why does anyone still buys Windows?

@catsalad I saw this and felt inspired to make myself a sticker-template in Inkscape for pre-perforated sticker-paper. Now I got a couple of stickers showing the image you posted ready for use. Thanks.
@catsalad Getting SCP vibes from this.

@catsalad

Please let me know when the stickers become available.

@catsalad I'll buy your entire stock of these

@catsalad

It's like the AI box experiment except even more inane.

@catsalad "F-it... We're stealing screenshots for our AI anyways"
@catsalad For years I only use windows as a game console when work in Linux instead. Linux desktop evolves so good today, everything just goes smoothly and symmetrically. So f**k microsoft.
@catsalad I was complaining to a friend "why do they hide it behind a hidden CLI flag?" What if I want to install Windows in the middle of the woods with no internet? WHAT THEN?

@catsalad I really want some of these "Designed for #Linux - #Windows incompatible!" stickers...

Anyone else remember these??

@kkarhan @catsalad

I remember them very well indeed! I also remember Red Hat, slightly less well and somewhat less positively.

(Need a sticker like these, but with Xenia on it. I'll put one on my Steam Deck.)

@kkarhan @catsalad That Mandrake logo. That brings back some memories πŸ™

Oh sorry I meant, Mandriva. Anwyays, my back hurts, I need a nap.
@kkarhan @catsalad
I could legitimately put a "Windows 11 Incompatible" sticker on every computer I own. (Which is quite a few.)
Microsoft requiring TPM 2.0 for Windows is such bullshit. I hope some people ditch Windows for alternate, free operating systems. (There's more than Linux out there.)

@brouhaha @catsalad yeah, #Microsoft is really keen on forcing #CensorBoot down everyones throat despite publicly admitting that #TPM is insecure.

  • Otherwise they would've used it in the #XboxOne!
