M$ is like a boyfriend - you tell him “No, don’t touch me there!”

and an hour later his hands are wandering the same direction again…

That’s M$ intention, to hide some settings from users and lose control of Windows.

They want to create some hype and look cool by using AI chatbots. And most normies don’t care about privacy and the dangers of AI in the future, they only care about “wow I can use AI for bla… bla…”

But they have no idea, that one day AI could take over their jobs… and rich people like Sam Altman are getting richer, and he only pays you with UBI money some pieces of computing

Also, AI companies aim for government contracts and medium / big corpos.

As I stated in other reply

This is just some of BS public stunts, they are trying to hide and create misinformation to deceive people. The mastermind of the online gambling issue here, is one of their cronies. A businessman, this guy being protected by top military brass and former general including a new elected president.

My guess? This is just PR from their politicians to say “they are saving the country” or whatever bullshit without actually doing anything useful

As a M$ Windows user for years, I can tell you there’s little to no incentive in Linux development. That’s why M$ Windows is so much better than Linux, they give incentives / rebates to hardware manufacturers if they can sell pre-installed Windows PCs/Laptops. So they are willing to build device drivers to support Windows.

I don’t get it why you have to blame Samba devs? SMB protocol was built by M$. It’s not easy to build something like Samba, at least they need to analyze how the SMB protocol works. If you want a better compatibility for sharing data with SMB you should use M$ Windows.

Mander is not the only instance having this issue. Other instances like lemmy.nz (it was), reddthat also aussie.zone, monyet.cc have similar issue since months ago. I assume the culprit is cogent’s de-peering drama not from lemmy itself.

And those lemmy instances are hosted in APAC.

Also you can check federation issue with this

And if I’m not mistaken our admin has solution regarding the issue a while ago, you may ask Dave.

Those linux laptops are too expensive and they are not available in some countries

Used thinkpad is much cheaper

Yup they can mess up the fediverse in the near future

And there’s Google’s with their new privacy policy states that it can use publicly available data to help train its AI models

They only cares about money and unlimited growth.
