    Don't wait until it's too late - Microsoft will be ending support for Windows Server 2016 on January 12, 2027, leaving devices vulnerable to the latest security threats without monthly updates. Make sure you're prepared for a secure future by taking action before the January 2027 update is your last.

    Morgen bin ich auch mit am Start und unterstütze in der Linux-Sonderschicht. Interessierten Leuten Linux näher bringen und auf dem eigenen System installieren. So ist die Befreiung von der Seuche (aka Windows) etwas leichter.

  8. Microsoft Warns Windows 11 23H2 Users of Impending Security Update Cutoff

    Don't wait until it's too late: if you're using Windows 11 23H2 Enterprise, Education, or IoT Enterprise editions, you'll stop receiving crucial security updates after next month, leaving your devices vulnerable to the latest threats.

  11. Hello Mastodon. We're Goodbye Guide, a small UK team. Our cofounder Simon started it after his sister Claire died suddenly at 55, leaving the family guessing at what she'd have wanted.

    It's a free, private place to write down your funeral and farewell wishes (music, readings, messages for loved ones) and choose who'll carry them out. Not a will, just fewer guesses at a hard time.

    Mostly here to listen and share. goodbyeguide.com

  13. Microsoft Axes Companion Apps, Shifts Focus to New Authentication Methods

    Microsoft is phasing out its 365 companion apps - Calendar, People, and Files - and setting December 16, 2026 as the end-of-life date, after which they'll no longer function or be supported. Admins are advised to remove the apps from devices by then to ensure a seamless transition.

  17. 🛑 Debian 11 „Bullseye” a ajuns la sfârșitul duratei de viață (EOL) și nu mai primește suport oficial!

    Publicația Linuxiac informează că versiunea Debian 11 „Bullseye” (lansată inițial în august 2021) a ajuns la finalul perioadei sale de suport Long-Term Support (LTS), ceea ce înseamnă că proiectul Debian a încetat furnizarea actualizărilor de securitate și a remedierilor de erori pentru această distribuție.

    ✨ Punctele cheie ale acestei tranziții:

    ⚠️ Fără actualizări de securitate:
    • Echipa de securitate Debian și echipa LTS nu mai produc pachete de securitate pentru Debian 11, expunând sistemele care continuă să o ruleze la posibile vulnerabilități (CVE-uri) necorectate.

    🔄 Recomandare de upgrade:
    • Administratorii de sistem și utilizatorii sunt îndemnați insistent să facă trecerea la o versiune suportată — Debian 12 „Bookworm” (care beneficiază de suport LTS activ) sau Debian 13 „Trixie”.

    🌐 Opțiunea Freexian ELTS (Extended LTS):
    • Pentru organizațiile care nu pot efectua un upgrade imediat, singura opțiune de a continua să primească patch-uri de securitate critice este serviciul comercial terț Extended LTS (ELTS) oferit de compania Freexian.

    📌 Comandă rapidă pentru verificarea versiunii curente:

    Dacă doriți să verificați ce versiune de Debian rulează pe serverul dumneavoastră:

  23. Happy #EHRC guidance goes live day to all my disobedient #trans siblings here on #terfIsland.

    Citing reasonable concerns, hypotheticals and outliers, ‘gender critics’ used money, influence, and the courts to create a permission structure to exclude us from gendered spaces.

    The only people who will actually use it, already had lots of ways to make us unwelcome. Their bullshit is priced in to our lives already and so in a sense nothing has changed.

    That still leaves trans people in trouble, in #carceral spaces, in the #nhs, in #school and #endOfLife, and in finding #work. Oh and #sports, if you could ever access them in the first place.

    You know what none of us are going to do, though? #exclude ourselves from our lives as they are now, just because a handful of judges decided that a sixteen year old equality law, that protected us, was actually a bathroom ban all along.

    We’re also going to seize their ‘third spaces’ rhetoric for our #nonBinary peeps and get on with ending all this gender nonsense!
