Microsoft will offer free Windows 10 extended security updates in Europe
Microsoft will provide free Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10 in the European Economic Area through October 13, 2026, but with specific conditions[^1]. While users won't need to enable Windows Backup or use Microsoft Rewards points, they must sign in with a Microsoft Account at least once every 60 days to maintain access to updates[^2]."If your Microsoft Account is not used to sign in for a period of up to 60 days, ESU updates will be discontinued, and you'll need to re-enroll by signing in using the same MSA," Microsoft confirmed[^3].
This change came after pressure from Euroconsumers, who argued that linking security updates to Microsoft's cloud services raised concerns under the Digital Markets Act[^4]. The free ESU program applies to Windows 10 version 22H2 devices in the EEA (European Union member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway)[^5].
Outside the EEA, users still must either enable Windows Backup, redeem Microsoft Rewards points, or pay approximately $30 for ESU access[^2].

How safe is web archive for software?
Ive seen that there are software you can download on web archive (archive.org), but it isnt listed in the megathread.
Should I suppose that it is as safe as it is downloading random stuff from the internet?

You are technically correct, in the literal sense that managers and executives have work to do.
It should be noted, however, that it is the workers (not the company owners/investors) that create all the products that are up for sale and the infrastructure necessary to begin production (e.g., roads, bridges, electricity, education, etc.). Hence, when a CEO say that they "built" the company, they are obfuscating the exploitation of the labor of workers who transform raw materials into all the useful commodities we enjoy.
But in the end the worst are the owners and investors who litteraly just steal.

Ukraine’s sea drones ‘paralyze‘ Russian Black Sea oil hubs, HUR source says. “Naval drones targeted key logistics facilities belonging to the aggressor state on the Black Sea coast,” the source said.
Kremlin officials ‘will have to know where the bomb shelters are,’ Zelensky says. According to President Volodymyr Zelensky, U.S. President Donald Trump expressed support for such strikes, saying, “We will work on it.”
Trump says Russia ‘gained virtually no land‘ in Ukraine offensive despite heavy costs. “With all of the heavy bombardment over the last two weeks, they’ve gained almost no land,” Trump told the press in the White House during a meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Ukrainian military strikes 3 gas distribution stations in occupied Luhansk. The Ukrainian military struck three gas distribution stations in the Russian-occupied part of Luhansk Oblast overnight on Sept. 25, according to military officials.

Trump's TikTok deal payment criticized as 'shakedown scheme' by experts
The Trump administration recently approached a coalition of U.S. investors set to take over TikTok's U.S. operations with an ask: Will the group make a payment to the federal government "in the low billions," according to a person with direct knowledge of the talks.
The response from the investors, which includes tech mogul Larry Ellison, the Murdochs and venture capital heavyweight Andreessen Horowitz, was an unequivocal yes.
"Not a single member balked," said the person, who was not authorized to speak publicly. "They see it as something of a finders' fee."
Welcome to President Trump's new business agenda: extracting payments as if the federal government is brokering deals like a white-shoe consulting firm fueled by lucrative "fees for service."

Where does Palantir get the data from to begin with?
They don't have a social media service, right? So where do they get the data to train their AI models ? Surely they need a lot, right? It would be nice if the public knew who cooperates with them (other than governments) and just boycott their services, or at least pressure them.
If company X doesn't offer your data to governments officials, but offers them to Palantir which makes a profile of you that it offer to the same officials, isn't that even worse ?
like this
They don't. They sell tools to governments and companies, that the clients use with their own data, that they already have. Palantir doesn't do the spying or data harvesting, and they don't have any data of their own, they develop and sell tools that clients use with whatever data the clients have.
They make the spy tools, they are not doing the spying.
I used to run in consulting circles, long enough time around execs and you start to see just how well the good ol boy clubs, and know-a-guy chains can make business deals between firms. Once you get the ball rolling on a project as a large enough entity, it doesn't take much to consult the digital equivalent of their rolodex to find vendor upon vendor for this part, this data broker, etc.
Cheaper in bulk too.

New digital ID scheme to be rolled out across UK
New digital ID scheme to be rolled out across UK
A new digital ID scheme will help combat illegal working while making it easier for the vast majority of people to use vital government services. Digital ID will be mandatory for Right to Work checks by the end of the Parliament.Prime Minister's Office, 10 Downing Street (GOV.UK)
like this
ID Cards are a big hot button issue in the UK. We only really had them in the UK during the Second World War as a matter of national security, but after that they were scrapped.
Basically this document will not stop illegal working (because you know, people who hire illegal workers don't check paperwork) but what they will do is link everything to your card, especially with the Online Safety Act. Said something like "Palestine Action shouldn't be Proscribed"? You can be flagged and the Cops can notice that when they scan your card. Transgender? That can be flagged and the Cops will treat you differently.
Add to that the idea of a Politcal Party like Reform getting into power and you can imagine how much of a clusterfuck this will be if they decide to have a "War on Woke".
Basically this document will not stop illegal working (because you know, people who hire illegal workers don't check paperwork)
Totally agree on this, but as for the rest, I'm guessing this only expedites linking up information by virtue of it being in a computerised system rather than enabling it at all.
It is very worrisome that a party like that could get into power, but it doesn't change how it's always been, we are at the "mercy" of our government, if they want to single out a demographic and actively hamper it, they will find a way regardless of the tools in use.
To focus on this as a bad aspect looks to me like it's sort of missing the point, this more or less should provide an easier management of information.
What could be argued instead, is that it is locking out people who don't have the access to devices enabled to it, which is a real problem if they want to phase out papers completely. Here in Italy already with the IO app we can (so it's currently fully optional) have our driving licence digitised, but that single feature doesn't work (at least for now, and it's been almost a year by now that support hasn't been added) on GrapheneOS, for example.
I think the real issues are two: a hostile government, which holds true regardless of methods, and lack of support for secure and private platforms which the citizens should 100% be entitled to use

Fallo facile
Corri Facile, ha mille sfaccettature questa affermazione. La corsa non è mai facile anzi è una delle cose più difficili che ci possano essere, perchè il respiro deve essere in un certo modo e sincronizzato con le braccia, che devono essere coordinate con le gambe. La testa e la schiena deve essere dritta, non dobbiamo chinarci altrimenti arrivano gli infortuni! Eppure ci sentiamo dire : corri facile
ed effettivamente non è difficile correre facili, dobbiamo fare quello per cui siamo capaci e cioè correre in modo semplice, facile.
Abbiamo tutti i nostri obiettivi, i nostri goal e ci impegniamo per raggiungerli e, spesso per raggiungerli ci carichiamo di tensioni di ansie perché abbiamo paura di non raggiungerli.
Dobbiamo pensare in modo facile, quante volte vediamo correre qualcuno :" come corre bene, facile...io non riesco!". NO falso anche noi ~~riusciamo~~ possiamo muoverci facile dobbiamo solo lasciare andare!
La corsa serve anche per questo lasciare andare, quando corriamo facili corriamo per un ore più o meno stiamo facili nella corsa e stiamo facili nel quotidiano. Ci sarà tempo per correre forte e veloce, ci sara modo dove lasciare andare la forza e in quel momento il corpo sarà facile. Non è un allenamento duro ma è utile negli allenamenti duri.

Installing Fedora 42 KDE, bios doesn't see my ssd anymore.
Update 2: eventually I decided to just go with it and install MX instead as a final attempt(because I just happened to have that on a stick on my desk) and it worked. I have a functional machine again. Thx for all the input guys!
Update: reinstalling fedora, it’s extremely slow and it’s going beyond 100%. I fkd up didn’t I?
Another case of "normie wants to ditch W11 for Linux and got backed into a corner".
I have used Linux for a while about 20 years ago, however installing it on a modern machine is new to me.
Timeline/Data:
-Recent Dell XPS laptop
-Decrypted the SSD in W11 through shell
-Booted Fedora 42 from a usb (everything works, yay!)
-Installed on the entire disc (as intended, byebye W11)
-Reboot=> Bios doesn't see the SSD anymore, a few reboots later I get a prompt to enter my "code" (not the typical bitlocker screen, I assume my Windows Pin?), before I even get the chance to select the damn prompt it's already gone. After which Bios reset itself to og settings (secure boot and whatnot)
-Bios still doesn't see the SSD.
-Fedora live does see the SSD.
What do I do now?
Thx in advance!

yt-dlp crew explicitly state they won't touch DRM for good reasons, and that's fair. Companies using it for malicious reasons like paywalling/gatekeeping education are assholes.
I found two places with guides on how to use yt-dlp or ffmpeg:
Stack Overflow
Reddit
Failing that, OBS (you might be able to stream the file through VLC first, idk) is your friend
How to download read-only recordings on Teams
Is there any way to download a read-only recording from a Teams class (without recording the screen)? I have a shared OneDrive of lecture recordings, some can be downloaded and some cannot. Thanks ...Stack Overflow
I tried these methods already. It was this stream link that yt-dlp said was drm locked and ffmpeg aaid was malformed. I'll try the obs method later. Thank you :3
Edit: looking closer I didn't shorten the url. I might try this later.
I'm wondering if the issue is SharePoint, not any DRM. yt-dlp and ffmpeg wouldn't be logged in, causing the problem. Try this:
- Login into sharepoint in your browser
- Get cookies for the page using a plugin, there are a variety of them out there and depends on your browser, but should be easy to find
- Using the file you download, run yt-dlp like this:
yt-dlp --cookies=cookies.txt <url> -S proto:dash

Helmut Dietl – „Schtonk!“ (1991)
„Schtonk!“ ist eine fantastische Satire über einen Skandal, der bis heute nachhallt: Über die Hitler-Tagebücher, die Medien und die deutsche Nachkriegsgesellschaft. Das Meisterwerk von Helmut Dietl ist bis heute unerreicht und die Mechanismen der Medien sind noch ganz dieselben. (ARD, Wh.)

Fuck Bibi and fuck zionism, but I find speaking about "genetic or genealogical" claim to a land a bit... iffy.
That's the same logic that ethno-nationalists apply.

No it's not.
You don't have to wonder in Palestine who the land belongs to. The owners are still alive.
like this
That's a cultural, not a genetic argument.
The problem is the settler colonialist part, not the genetic part. Let's say that some swedish woman moved to palestine to marry her palestinian fiance and they start a family there, integrating with the palestinian community. Would her grandchildren need to leave Palestine, because she's not "pure"?
If the ashkenazi migrants would have learned arabic and peacefully coexisted with the palestinians without starting an ethno-nationalist project, they wouldn't be settler-colonialists.
Yes but then there wouldn't be millions of them.
This is like wondering why there are so many white people in South Africa during Apartheid

The crux of the Israeli argument is that they have a high genetic connection to the land which gives them a 'right to return'.
If they use a Fascist talking point for colonization it needs to be addressed and debunked. Period.
If they use a Fascist talking point for colonization it needs to be addressed and debunked.
You're not debunking it by accepting the premise. You're validating it, in fact.
Don't play the fascist's games.They'll drag you down to their level.
If the ashkenazi migrants would have learned arabic and peacefully coexisted with the palestinians without starting an ethno-nationalist project, they wouldn't be settler-colonialists.
Yes that's a good if and you're right that the FACT that Israelis did not come from Palestine ( palestineremembered.com/Acre/M… ) is not the main horrible evil issue of Israel and Palestine today; it is as you said the ethnic cleansing of palestinains and Israel becoming a genocidal ethnostate and a Jewish-supremacy aparthied.
If you click on the link above, you will read in 1947 there was 2% jewish population who were granted 7% of Palestine, then after Nakba of 1948, the zionists massacred and displaced 80% of Palestinains out and took over 70% of their country too.
So the "if" we are dealing with in reality is that if they claimed their ancestors are semitic and have the right to return to their land all while their country heavily bans DNA testings, and bans actual Palestinains whom all their ancestors were born there from coming back until this day, then give a jewish guy from Poland or anywhere in the world the right to come to Palestine and claim dual citizenship and land from a Palestinian family who lived there for hundrends of years before their ethnostate was even created.
So to counter this zionist narrative, we are willing to test it and expose it, too. No where here did we make it facist saying "you did not come from here, get out." That is not our argument. Our argument exposes another zionist bs justification for their genocidal ethnic cleansing which was made up through unverifible untestable bs religious beliefs "God promised us all this land 3000 years ago which had no people, and it is for people without land ." when history and DNA testings alone expose it to be the BS Zionist narrative that it is made up to hide its actual colonist land grabing project truth
Jewish Owned Land as of 1947 - Palestine Remembered
As of 1947, Jews owned 7% of Palestine's lands, & after the 1948 war 80% of the Palestinian people were DISPOSSESSED of their homes, farms, & businesses. Detailed accounting of Jewish land purchase in Palestine.www.palestineremembered.com
No where here did we make it facist saying "you did not come from here, get out." That is not our argument.
I disagree. I think that's a core assumend premise of the video. Otherwise, the statement that Bibi's from Poland doesn't make any coherent sense as an argument.
I disagree with the complete "blood and soil" premise that zionism is based on. But I critisize bs logic, no matter which camp it stated.
I understand you, and even the two-state solution itself does not ask for Israelis to go back where they came from no. The hope is for them to live in peace side by side, and stop the genocidal jewish-supremacy.
I think that's a core assumend premise of the video. Otherwise, the statement that Bibi's from Poland doesn't make any coherent sense.
Bro, it does make coherent sense; read my previous comment. It is to expose the Zionist bs narrative that it's their ancestors land 3000 yrs ago promised by god. And here where I disagree with you that you refuse to scoop low to their bs logic to prove it wrong. I'm willing to do that.
I really wish you have a good day. I really think we agree on more than what we disgree.
Small correction, not relevant to the other commenter.
The two-state solution still implies an apartheid structure and in fact is exactly what has led to what we are witnessing today. A single state, where all people enjoy equal rights; where Palestinians are represented in the state, allowed to return to their homeland, and receive reparations; should be what we are looking towards as the most stable end to this violence. There will not be extended peace as long as there is land reserved to remain as a zionist ethnostate.

everyone perceives China to be some socialist giant
No they don't.
You're not the only one with functioning eyes.
I don't even remember seeing a person actually arguing China is in any way communist. Just like people don't argue that NK is a democracy despite them calling themselves one.
Holy shit you can't be that childish.
Okay, let's go with "socialist" then because you're so childish that you're pretending like the form of socialism China is known to claim to be isn't communism.
If you have to pretend to be that stupid, then perhaps you're not in a good position, argument-wise.
China is a unitary communist state led by the CCP that self-designates as a socialist state.
All I've said is that in my personal experience visiting China this socialist state feels more capitalist than many other countries due to the insane amount of consumerism and mass consumption.
This is due to reform and opening up in 1978 and a burgeoning middle class with significant purchasing power.
I'm not belittling China with these facts, I'm merely observing what has happened.
And who, besides the CCP, is arguing that China isn't just as capitalist as other large market economy countries despite calling itself socialist?
Moving topics/contexts from one community to another
At Piefed office hours, rimu@piefed.social and I got to talking about what's next for Piefed and the Threadiverse WG.
One of those things is moving stuff between communities (or in bbs parlance: moving topics between categories/forums).
Rimu suggested we use the already-existing as:Move activity, sent by the community (a group actor), with origin and target set, and with object being the post id itself.
I suggested we update this to use the resolvable context collection as object instead, which Piefed has supported since v1.2.
That should be enough to get a proof-of-concept implementation going between Piefed and NodeBB... a question remained as to whether this should be Announce(Move(Object)) or simply Move(Object).
Argument for former was that it was similar verbiage to other 1b12 actions.
Argument for the latter was that this is merely 1b12 adjacent and needn't follow prior art.
We'll likely put together an FEP for this.
