Only 200GB free? How many Trump porn videos have you downloaded???!!
No Trump porn. Partitioned a biggly hard drive for the Linux install and ran a dual boot setup.
Worked ok at first and would ask which system i wanted to boot into whan starting but after removing and reinstalling to test the new PC I lost the dual boot choice on startup. PITA having to go into the BIOS to choose whic one i needed.
Strange that windows and Linux makes it almost impossible to locate each others files.

@Hog said in The Official fuck Windows 11/Microsoft Thread:
I’m down with it being installed by default for most users though.
Because the NSA deserves access to everyone’s computers?
Well, I disagree. I think if anyone wants access to my computer, it should be up to me to decide whether to let them in or not.
Thx for answering about the NSA. I did not know that apparently routine NSA access to Linux systems had indeed become a thing sometime in the past 20 years.

@oyaji NSA can probably get anything they need by accessing one’s browsing, download history, and web traffic, through an internet provider or group chat like Discord.
Of course, if someone does get arrested and a computer is seized, they’ll just get a search warrant for it’s contents and have some 11 year old hack into it to retrieve everything else.

Fck computers then.

I did the update yesterday. Went smoothly except I got a black screen during the update and I had to manually restart my PC for it to finish.

@Lob12 Also go to Start>Settings>Advanced and see if there’s any additional updates for drivers.

How come that here in “The Official fuck Windows 11/Microsoft Thread”, everybody but me has downloaded it?
In that case, shouldn’t the thread really be called something more appropriate, like “The Official I Got Fuckt by Windows 11/Microsoft and Bill Gates Love Me Long Time ITB Thread”?

I’ll need to build a new PC because of this. This PC was built years ago and still plays any game I load into it. I asked Gpt for recommendations and it gave me a RTX 5090 as a reasonable choice…$2500k. How much is high end $10k!?!

I agree with @Gpt . Helicopter explosions are a hard thing for low-end graphic cards to render.

Not just NSA…
Billions of Calls Exposed Via Unencrypted Satellites
The Discovery: Researchers used $800 consumer satellite equipment to intercept sensitive unencrypted data from geosynchronous satellites, including military communications, personal calls, and corporate data across 40% of Earth’s surface.
Why It Matters: The vulnerability threatens privacy of millions, compromises critical infrastructure, and exposes military operations. Major companies like T-Mobile have responded with encryption, while others remain at risk.
Researchers find a startlingly cheap way to steal your secrets from space
Using commercially available equipment, researchers scanned 39 satellites and observed sensitive, encrypted communications from telecoms, businesses and the U.S. military.

Reminds me of that time during a US war game in Europe, the bad guy side tracked troop movements by using Tinder. People are so accustomed to using devices that opsec goes out the window.
-
So, commies use Tinder?

Satellites don’t encrypt, devices using them encrypt. If you stuck encryption on a satellite, then you would be stuck with that for the lifespan of the constellation. If you do it on the ground then you can update it over the years that the constellation is active.

Makes sense to encrypt/decrypt on the ground where a combination of software and hardware techniques may be employed, but it also should be possible to upload software for an extra level of encryption in orbit.

It was my understanding that the satellite is just a repeater that can handle many connections.

Mine too.

You could, but why would you need to double encrypt something? And it’s still vulnerable from the ground to the satellite if you wait to encrypt it in the sky. The device is just a radio that others can pick up when nearby.

I think we agree.
I just meant to add that one can do both.
The encryption scheme local to the radio can be outside the radio and provide an additional layer.
But . . .
It’s probably unnecessary.
