Are you sure? Gaming with proton sometimes has better performance than native Windows nowadays 🥲

I have heard you can get (some? Most? Not sure) VST Plugins that only exist for windows running on Linux with wine and Carla. Haven’t tried it myself, though

That’s the thing, I wish we could just switch all enterprises to Linux, but Microsoft developed a huge ecosystem that really does have good features. Unless something comparable comes up in the Linux world, I don’t see Europe becoming independent of Microsoft any time soon

But can you also get all the enterprise features they have with Linux? Like, backups, mobile device management, identity and access management, MFA? All integrated tightly and easily deployable from a portal?

No AI, a human chose to insult us with Comic Sans here 💕

Another commenter here mentioned Russinovich’s books, which I just started reading, and those webcasts are really fun, thanks a lot! I think he is the guy to follow to properly understand this stuff. Let’s see how far I can get :)

Thank you, I just started working through the first part of Windows Internals! It’s fantastic! I think this is exactly what I was looking for.

Hahaha I lol’ed… and I’m afraid 😳

Who are her artists?

If you had to look it up, you would be rejected, too

Haha thank you! Pictures are posted in a comment further up. It actually looks better in real life, I will do another round of fine sanding and polishing on the varnish. I’m sooo relieved and happy about this, and surprised, most people told me I was completely screwed and I would have to redo the floor, now it looks good as new 😅

I fixed it really easily and well, without sanding, with the steaming method recommended here! Photos are in a comment further below:)

I didn’t need to get down to the wood, I poked tiny holes in the varnish and steamed them, worked like a charm. Photos are in another comment further up, thank you though!

It worked! Thanks so much! I posted before and after photos in another comment further up

I did it! It was really easy and quick! These are before and after photos: first after the steaming, then after some light polishing of the varnish.

I fixed it, really well and easily 🥲 with the steam method recommended here, and some slight polishing of the varnish. Looks so good as new! Will post images here

I fixed it really well, and really easily 🥲 will post the images here now

That, yes, and maybe Microsoft wouldn’t be the one pulling the trigger? I mean, with prism the NSA had access to most internet traffic between the US and the rest of the world, I think. Who knows what mechanisms there are in place, and what this government might decide to do?

Would they legitimize cracks, though? I can’t see that happening. That would be a far reaching legal precedent.
