way to long just short it down: 3248

clearly the best way to show date

This should be obvious, but just in case people take this seriously. It' a joke

Well you see. 1905 never happened, and we are all under Sweden still. /s

Norwegian government loves windows, so yea, I really doubt it. (by it, I mean the government using Ubuntu thing)

Source: I used to work for the Norwegian government

edit: added explanation to "it", so not to be as confusing to what I refered to.

I do actually know a fair share of people using Linux in my social circle, but a lot of them uses both windows and Linux. My family uses Linux for their private devices, as that was a requirement to get my technical support. And an increasing number of my friends are moving over to Linux.

What I find weird is the sudden increase of 10% (from 18.16% to 29.04%). Like, did everyone get back from vacation after a Linux conversion camp or something?

an attempt at an answer:

more linux users = more linux software (and I know this doesn't mean better linux software)

Or at least attention from the bigger actors e.g., Adobe, Autodesk etc. to make their industry standards available for Linux users

So in theory, one third of everyone I meet should be a linux user. Yet everyone uses windows. 🤔 Am I the 30%?? /sw

That would be a valid option, but only if there are no windows dependencies and the primary user agrees to the change.

With all the Win11 spam in Win10, my grandmother decided to try Linux. She is now a 90-year-old Linux user. Her use case is YouTube and email, and I have to support the system (I had to do that for the win10 system as well).

Have you run a full scan using Windows Defender?

Can you confirm that the worm is actually running?

AV software may remove the installed worm from the system, but not from the drive.

Probably a good idea to reformat the USB drive

PS. if all else fails, nuke and pave (reinstall the computers in your household, including your linux machine)

You should do this offline, as in, quarantine the situation.

This might help https://codeberg.org/unfa/HyperTimer

it needs to be manually set, but a script to run this when you launch the app/game maybe?

Spectacle from KDE is also a pretty good default

Appflowy might not be there yet, but it is improving fast
