  1. I love my #SteamDeck so much that I switched my old #Windows10 PC to #LinuxMint. For all purposes the desktop experience is quite amazing, would definitely daily drive as a laptop in the future.

    BUT....

    Basically learned GameMode ≠ BPM, visually it does but on #Linux Mint (possibly other distros) it's not. Also I wish the lock screen, QAM, system settings controlled carried over.

    The reason I went with Linux Mint was because I wanted to use my Xbox Wireless Receiver and the chatpad.

  3. I am having a problem signing in to my Ebay account. It keeps asking me to check a checkbox. I do so, and then, it gives me an inaccessible captcha with no audio alternative. I tried this on Windows 7, 10, and 11, with Firefox and Supermium, and nothing changes. I can't even read their accessibility page because it asks me to sign in and sending me back to the captchas! Is there a trustworthy captcha solver that works with NVDA or a way around this? Alternatively, does anyone here know of another site that sells vintage and antique things, or even another ebay replacement in general? I've been with them for over twenty years as a buyer, but if I need to change sites, I will do so. This is ridiculous!

  5. Microsoft extended Windows 10 ESU coverage for consumers through Oct. 12, 2027, with enrolled devices receiving security updates automatically. 🛡️
    The extension adds another year for supported Windows 10 PCs, giving users more time to choose when to move to Windows 11. ⏳

  7. 🪟 Несподіване рішення #Microsoft продовжити підтримку #Windows10 до 2027 року, хоча офіційно ця ОС завершила свій життєвий цикл ще 14.10.2025, підкреслило справжню проблему: багато користувачів досі не хоче переходити на #Windows11.

    Видання Windows Central провело опитування своєї аудиторії, і результати виявилися промовистими: 68% респондентів заявили, що будуть продовжувати користуватися Windows 10 навіть після завершення підтримки. Лише 19% опитаних повідомили, що вже перейшли на Windows 11

  8. RE: fosstodon.org/@libreoffice/116

    This is the first I'm hearing that Microsoft is adding yet another year to its Windows 10 ESU. And I'm finding out about it on the @libreoffice blog via the Fediverse.

  12. Guten Morgen,

    ist das schön kühl hier am offenen Fenster, macht euch frei :-)

    Morgen wird wieder ein Rechner meiner Verwandschaft dem Schnüffelzugriff Microsofts entzogen 😅

    Er erhält Linux Mint LMDE 7 Cinnamon basierend auf #Debian "Gigi". LMDE 7 führt Mint als Alternative zur Ubuntuversion, die Mint normalerweise anbietet. Es ist die Rückfalloption, falls Ubuntu nicht mehr verfügbar ist.

    Mir gefällt LMDE 7 besser.

  14. FYI: Microsoft has quietly extended the official Extended Security Updates for #Windows10 to the 12th October 2027. (Originally, it was meant to end in October 2026)

  16. Microsoft taipui: Windows 10:n ilmainen, pidennetty tukiaika jatkuu nyt vuoteen 2027

    Maailmanlaajuisesti Windows 10:n markkinaosuus Windowsin eri versioista on laskenut vauhdilla, mutta on edelleen noin 26%, joka on Microsoftinkin (puhumattakaan tietoturva-asiantuntijoiden) mielestä liikaa, jotta päivitystukea voisi vielä lopettaa aiotussa aikataulussa, eli lokakuussa 2026.

  18. Das ist gut... Dennoch werde ich meine beiden Linux-Installationen mit Opensource-Software weiter testen und klären, ob ich meine fotografischen Arbeitsabläufe darauf genauso effizient und in gleicher Qualität erledigen kann wie bisher mit kommerzieller Software unter Windows. Wenn ja: Umstieg.

  19. Microsoft quietly extended Windows 10 Extended Security Updates to add another year of free updates for consumers. We updated our article about Windows 10 ESU to reflect this. If you haven’t seen it before, you might find it a useful read to know how to safely continue using Windows 10. legacyupdate.net/help/windows-
