EOL means no more security updates, which means attack vectors don't get patched.

If you keep using a Windows installation (or any OS for that matter) that isn't patched regularly you are very likely to be victim to some malicious actor eventually. It's not manual hacking anymore, it's bots scraping the whole internet exploiting known vulnerabilities completely automated.

The risk is much lower if you're in a home network with NAT, where your PCs IP is not publicly reachable, but if you communicate with any webservices you're still vulnerable.

As example. If you nowadays put a Windows XP machine live on the internet with a public IP, it will be compromised within minutes.

So yeah. Good call switching to Mint, but please don't use unpatched Windows.

Josh's articles seem to be bangers most of the time.

Unlike the people he's writing about, which probably never banged.

Isn't the Wikipedia article usually already the summary of the topic?

If there's an article with more than 20 references to papers it's usually already abridged enough.

Just auto-generate videos with AI images and voiceover and add subway surfers gameplay on the side for those who think this slop is needed.

Das geht ja noch viel tiefer als nur das falsch abstellen.

Der Typ regt sich ja auf, dass es Strafen gibt, wenn man Eigentum der Firma (Fahrtenbuch) irgendwo verliert, wenn man drinnen raucht und wenn man den Wagen beschädigt.

Also so ignorant und eingebildet muss man mal sein, dass man so einen Vertrag eingeht, gegen Bedingungen verstößt und dann die Vermieter als die Arschlöcher sieht.

I use Hugo for static site generation and it makes the RSS stuff for me.

I still remember the screams of our enemies as the duck cast "Turn into bread" followed by "Summon ravenous flock".
