  • Started 20 years ago. It made sense from the first time I had to buy a pc and deal with windows. Previously had been Mac person, and just hated Windows. Linux felt different and had potential for flexibility and options.

    Did Linux week every year since then. Shame it took 18 years for linux to get to where I could game on it and not feel like I was having a 3rd rate experience compared to windows, performance wise.

    Been running EndeavourOS (aka Arch btw) with KDE plasma for 2 years. Still have windows on a smaller disk but Linux is my primary OS.

    Happy to share my build guide (just a text file and some backed up configs).














  • Except that UAC has been frequently compromised and still is. The historic weakness of UAC, and the juicy reward, continues to make it a favourite point of attack. Microsoft obviously knows this because they call the current UAC a legacy mode, and they’re superseding it with the new Administrator Protection modes. This isn’t turned on by default afaik, probably due to compatibility issues, but I’m guessing it’ll be a big thing soon.
