I will say Windows is decent for the niche its in. Larger scales, severs, mutlitenet, high security, kiosk, etc its not good.
I'm so glad its not my job. Running 1000s of nodes and an exponential amount more of services on those in hardened configs, across clouds, dcs, and availability zones are all easier than most ad forests I've seen.
Any windows work I do is just an exercise of how fast can I get to Linux again 😆😅, but I knew Windows admins that had it figured out.
X is heavily moderated compared to 4chan. Its just moderated to favor right wing views now. Plus the heavy amount of control the algorithm provides in shaping peoples content bubbles.
Public money public good enforcement. We have laws on the books that federal money spent on rnd should go to opensource, but enforcement is abysmal. The Department of Education being the worst in this regard with a reckless policy of supporting the use proprietary systems built around selling surveillance of its users instead of supporting FOSS alternatives.
Departments need major restructuring. Way too much of federal government is bueracracies vs actionable positions. If we want a government that does, we need to empower doers and shorten the chain between them and president.
I mean you can look at Russia as an example for how much of the economy was hurt by forcing people out of normal occupation and into service. You also have too look at their abysmal attrition rate to see its unsubstainable and if used primarily leads to worse and worse outcomes on the battle field as they less and less qualified personnel.
Appealing to morality is probably a lost cause for someone supporting a draft, they have already bought into war as a solution. Like moral arguments that Russia is choosing to sacrifice millions and set back their region is something they are already choosing to ignore, forcing people to do it minor in comparison.
Rocky and now moving too OpenSuse leap micro to move into immutable OS deployments.
Its all RKE2 (a k8s distro) on top anyways, so its very minor mods underneath, and base updates so I really want to maximize reproducibility and minim8ze attack surface.
Oh I forgot to mention pedals AI for distributed AI inference so its possible for smaller systems to contribute and use a larger model then they could theoretically do alone.
