#Windows10: #Microsoft verlängert kostenlose Updates in Europa um ein Jahr
derstandard.at/story/300000028…
Liebe Leute, ihr habt euer #Win10 maximal noch ein weiteres Jahr. Allerdings hält es euch nicht auf, jetzt schon auf etwas Besseres umzusteigen!
Lauter nette Leute, die du auf endof10.org/ findest, helfen dir bei deinen ersten Schritte mit #Linux auf deinem Computer.
In #Graz macht das das #LinuxCafé zumindest 1x/Monat: events.graz.social/@linux_cafe Am 21.10. ist es wieder soweit. Gleich mal notieren und im besten Fall vorab Daten sichern, damit du mit einem frisch aufgesetzten Linux wieder danach heimkommst.
Es warat wegen #Privatsphäre, #digitaleSouveränität, #Sicherheit und weil's einfach unkomplizierter und schneller ist - besonders auf nicht aktuellster Hardware. 👍

Nichtstun gefährlich: Ende für #Windows 10 wird schlagend

Aufklär-Artikel vom #ORF über das Support-Ende von #Win10 mit einem Schlussteil zu #Linux mit Referenz auf #EndOf10, das dir beim Umstieg auf Linux gerne hilft: endof10.org/

Wer aktuell auf dem eigenen Computer noch Windows 10 verwendet, steht spätestens am Dienstag vor einer großen Entscheidung: Dann stellt Microsoft offiziell die Unterstützung für sein mittlerweile zehn Jahre altes Betriebssystem ein.ORF.at
Es ist soweit: #Windows10 ist nun Geschichte, sofern man nicht für die Verlängerung von einem Jahr seinen Rechner eng an #Microsoft binden möchte:
derstandard.at/story/310000029…
Wer diese Verknüpfung an Microsoft ohnehin nie wollte, für den ist nun #Windows generell gestorben, da #Windows11 dies ebenfalls erfordert.
Ich empfehle, #Linux für die eigenen Zwecke zumindest zu testen. Geht ja auch auf so gut wie jeder alten Hardware wunderbar und einfach.
Wer hier unsicher ist, der soll sich an #EndOf10 halten, das dir beim Umstieg auf Linux gerne hilft: endof10.org/

Today, Microsoft is ending official support for Windows 10. This leaves users who want to continue using the operating system with few alternatives — especially if they have an old PC that is not compatible with Windows 11’s demanding hardware requir…Italo Vignoli (The Document Foundation)
""[…] There is only one correct metric that should be counted when dealing with software, and that is the user's cognitive load. […] If my Windows/Python/Notepad++ setup is more ubiquitous, understandable, intuitive and replicable than your obscure Arch/Hyprland build with its hundred painstakingly typed-out customizations for every single software in it, then my setup is better and more minimalist than yours. Full stop. […]""

Today is the day Mr. Hummelgaard wanted to push through a vote on Chat Control in the EU Council. But he failed! 🎉
However, Chat Control will be back, so let's look at what this law means for everyone, not just here in Europe:
#ChatControl is nothing but a Trojan Horse for citizens and businesses in Europe. Why?

Happy to try to answer any questions! Do you mean how screen readers behave to each other? Or how they make the computer behave compared to not having one running?
For how they work at all, we have a quick video demo of NVDA here: youtube.com/watch?v=tCFyyqy9mq…
There are settings you can change which alter (or restore) behaviour - happy to go through any of those you might be interested in.
For differences between screen readers, here's a page on Jaws & NVDA: github.com/nvaccess/nvda/wiki/…
NVDA, the free and open source Screen Reader for Microsoft Windows - nvaccess/nvdaGitHub
@vol4life8657 Sure - and I wasn't saying the others didn't, though yes, I put more of a case for NVDA (it is kind of my job) - re the price of Jaws - the account I was replying to is on an Australian server. In Australian dollars, Jaws Home is $2,280 according to Qantum: quantumrlv.com.au/products/jaw… or Vision Australia: shop.visionaustralia.org/jaws-… or Visability: livingaids.com.au/products/jaw…
An SMA on its own from most of those looks to be about $310 AUD

For all the Mouse's deep flaws, the mass transit system at Walt Disney World is sterling proof of just how good our cities could be if we stopped worrying about keeping the nice services away from the brown people.
The parks are super walkable, and getting anywhere across the southern part of the property (Epcot/Animal Kingdom/Hollywood Studios) Just Works™ in a way that most municipalities could easily replicate if they didn't have to fight property owners for every cent of taxes.
You are a 16 year old in 1993, which of the following would you get if money was no object?
Happy International E- waste day.
...Also happy Microsoft end-of-life for Windows 10 day.
It's estimated that 400-600 million computers still run Windows 10, and many of those don't meet the higher specs required for Win 11, which in addition to more RAM and a faster CPU includes having UEFI bios.
For those with some level of tech literacy upgrading to Linux is an obvious workaround, but the sad truth is that enormous volumes of ewaste will be generated by this unnecessary act of corporate greed.

The Jack Hopkins Now Newlsetter #595: Monday, October 13th, 2025.
this was written by AI. This is exactly how it phrases these "wow, shocking!" type of conclusions to things
edit: there's at least one stanza on each page that is 100% a clear sign of this being AI even if you ignore the obvious "AI bolded this for emphasis"
Jack isn't doing his best work, or any work at all I guess
If you want to know where Microsoft’s head is at,
they’ve added Copilot usage into their Connect (yearly performance review),
told sales people their performance is only being based on how much Copilot they sell,
and added Copilot usage to Viva Insight so companies can see how much Copilot usage there is in the org and how it compares to industry peers
Basically, only KPI that matters for orgs now: how much you feed the Copilot god.

If we just turned everyone into the Incredible Hulk we don’t need cars to travel and people can carry cargo vast distances at enormous weight.
That will dramatically reduce carbon.
