I don’t like the implied false dichotomy between opening up the kernel and better security. You can definitely have both. Otherwise it’s a good report.

My household is a Microsoft free environment. There is no place for the royal we in this conversation.

I can almost say the say thing, but I actually have a small Windows laptop dedicated to some software used for reprogramming the computer in my truck. I’ve never tried to run it under wine, so I might not need the laptop, but I very rarely use it anyway. Everything else in the house, from our android phones and tablets, to the entertainment system running from a raspberry pi, up to our laptops, desktops, and my stack of servers all run linux exclusively. Funny how they all run smoothly for years at a time.

It’s nice that major news outlets are saying what we nerds have been screaming for the past two decades. Microsoft only shares a small portion of the blame for the recent outage (they could have built their OS better so software vendors don’t feel the need to use kernel modules, but the rest is on CrowdStrike) but we are too depenent on them.

Not to change the subject, but your italicized “are” made me realize that Lemmy uses a different font for italic content (see the letter A). There’s another message down below deleted by creator which has the same style. I know, it’s a weird thing to notice, but there was a blog I saw this week mentioning that scammers are using websites with a (I think?) Cyrillic ‘a’ that looks just like the italic one here to fool people into thinking they’re visiting a legitimate site, so that little discrepancy stood out to me today. At least now I know I’m paying attention! 😆
