@Laird Sweet! I managed to fry an AMD Linux box the other day, need to fix that - I want all Linux in my fleet!

One tool that is VERY handy is BoincTasks. Lots of functions and controls for all client machines.

I also use TThrottle (from the same developers) to control heat - I overclock some of my units and it really helps!

@m0laki: Only have 1 new PC running WIn11. All others need to migrate to Linux before 14'th Oct. 25. MS blows lots of users.

@Laird How nice of them MS too - they need some way to pay for all the AI Nuke Powerstations they need to run the world with!

@mikey159: It is dangerous to run an OS without security support. Without security and support, it is a gateway for hackers.

@m0laki: I'm surviving just fine without MS or AI. Seems like humanity can't survive without AI. -Well. I'm still alive. :-)

@Laird&@Mike I use a series of hardware firewalls and other security on the network to quell the ugliness! Netgear is nice!

Happy Advent. Firewalls are good, but not safe. If you actively use a browser, there is always a risk.

@Laird-The good thing is that it motivates me to change over to 100% Linux that much faster!

You lot have been yammering about the lack of security in Windows for days yet none of this is news. Vulnerable by design.

Despite a violent storm across the Atlantic, the house is still standing. The PCs are still running.

1) Sagittarius: It's MS that wants us all to buy a new PC to switch to Win11.
