    I have to for work and I’m genuinely considering putting together a presentation about how big of a HIPAA problem it is for us to have ai integration everywhere.

    I have to for work, most of my job is in the cloud but I still find myself going “fucking windows goddamn shitty operating system” every once in a while. And man when I do have to use powershell damn is that shit ass

      A coworker put it better than I ever could:

      “Microsoft is the only company which has ever managed to make a shell that takes 10 seconds to autocomplete”

      And I think that’s poetry.

      (Yes, I know there are many more reasons why pwsh sucks, but there’s beauty in the simplicity of this one)

    I had to use Windows 10 in my last job. First thing I did was to install classic shell and start menu and Linux subsystem (wsl). And I always went through Windows services to disable what I don’t need. I guess I’d do the same on Windows 11.

    The first thing I did when I had to move to it at work was install ExplorerPatcher.

    It’s amazing.
    It makes the experience much more like win10. I couldn’t cope without it.

    I use windows 11 for work as a linux/hpc admin, as it’s a mostly microsoft shop. Most of my work is done in a wsl almalinux terminal, which works fine.

    The most important things I’ve done to make the rest of it more comfortable all come from the powertoys suite:

    • fancyzones, to replicate a tiling window manager (I really hate floating windows)
    • workspaces, to group apps and window placements so I can easily launch mail/chat/terminal/browser into predetermined places, etc
    • keyboard manager, to set up shortcuts to everything
    • run, for a keyboard-driven launcher

    With all of that, if you squint and don’t think about it too much, it’s almost like a dreadfully slow sway desktop haha

    It depends why I need to use it.

    To help someone on their Windows computer with an otherwise unrelated issue? I just help them. Pushing Linux unasked all the time just pushes people away. Better keep it for when that is a relevant answer to their problem.

    If my boss decides Linux is no longer an option? I would fiercly contest it, but if that’s to no avail I would seriously consider switching jobs. Even outside worries about loosing sovereignity I simply won’t be very happy working on Windows every day.

    I see no reason of this happening at my personal devices. If something doesn’t run on Linux I just don’t use it, same for hardware that’s incompatible with it. Worked well for years now, never felt like I missed out much.
