@tauon @itzzen @kolonthree neither mine, and I tried hard…

I just migrate people to #UbuntuLTS and that just works...b

@knoppix95 this is nothing new.

#Lenovo almost always offered around €125 discount for "no operating system" and €100 for #UbuntuLTS over #Windows - if they offer any of those options at all…

• Not to mention Lenovo, #Dell & #hp actually get paid $25 by #Microsoft for any #Windows #preinstall since at least 2012 in return for not shipping #Linux on said devices!

What is a problem is that Lenovo doesn't actually #Support even "#Ubuntu #certified" devices like the #P15v and it's #Intel #XMM7360-based #WWAN chip, the #Fibocom #850GL, at all, and they refuse to provide #drivers for it!

@P1Madsen @avatter probier' mal @ubuntu / #UbuntuLTS und dann willste nie mehr #Windows10 oder gar #Windows11 samt #Bloatware & #Enshittification nutzen!

@Sirs0ri @ann3nova how?

I have an old #OfficeJet and that thing scans without fuss using #gscan2pdf on #UbuntuLTS...

@kobilacroix that's why I recommend #UbuntuLTS...

@galaxydinodragon there's a reason the french #GendarmerieNationale spuns tueir own #UbuntuLTS derivative...

• Most importantly #ITsec = #NatSec!

@topher the problem is the #Enshittifiaction and #Enfattening of #Websites and #Applications!

Seriously, I think that #Microsoft should be sued into insolvency for the way they create 100% avoidable #eWaste with #CensorBoot and #Windows11 to the point that if I didn't have my current job, I'd basically collect all the old machines from companies that are stupid enough to use #Windows [and they'll likely give them away for free minus SSDs / HDDs instead of paying €5+ for #recycling], shove some #Linux on [i.e. #RaspberryPiOS, #BunsenLabsLinux or #UbuntuLTS] and sell those off as used electronics for a good profit.

@DigA_UniLeipzig @stbc @caos @uni_wuppertal also ich hab' seinerzeit (2013-2017) nur #UbuntuLTS auf Desktops und Servern dort gesehen, mit wenigen Ausnahmen wie #OpebSUSUE in einigen Laboren.

Würde mich wundern wenn die das umgestellt hätten!

• Gab jedenfalls auch ne zentrale Nutzerverwaltung samt /home/-Verzeichnis per NFS.

Ob #Labdscape oder nen händisch installiertes #LDAP / #Samba-#AD weiß ich leider nicht!

• Einfach mal die IT dort fragen?

@DigA_UniLeipzig also die Bergische #Universität #Wuppertal hat grubdsätzlich #UbuntuLTS ausgerollt...

• Nur sehr wenige #WinSchrott-Kisten gabs irgendwo...

@ml @fedora @gnome consider giving @ubuntu / #UbuntuLTS a shot?

@topher #Antivirus is for the most part #Scareware aimed at scamming #TechIlliterates which at best only works against kniwn threats and at worst is literal #Malware in and of itself selling user data to bad actors.

• There are commercial AV options for major distros, like #ESET offers for all 3 big Desktop ones: @RedHat, #SUSE & #UbuntuLTS...

As for the rest one can just scan #Fileservers regularly and do so on #Mailservers, but existing tools to enforce quick and early updates on those distros already do most of the heavy lifting re: #ITsec...

@S_Paternotte @GrapheneOS meanwhile I see #OpenAI literally using falsified #UserAgent|s and #DDoS'ing clients at work so hard I have to ban entire ASNs and /10 networks just because they ca't be assed to respect the robots.txt and refuse to accept beibg given 403 errors.

-Needless to say banning #GrapheneOS which are by far the most security-focussed and most diligent in terms of #Aftermarket-#Android-#ROM|s whilst not banning #outdated Android versions is like banning a "#SecureBoot|ed" #UbuntuLTS or #OpenBSD installation and going out of one's way to brick #Wine whilst still supporting #WindowsXP in 2025!
