  • But it will come back at the next big update.

    Not if the update is called Bazzite.

    I already provided one: https://lemmy.world/comment/21796829

    Cannot read a German news article about German news? Your problem. I'm 100% correct.

    Politician A sells out to MS

    The previous administration did.

    Migration back to Windows begins

    Which the previous administration did do and the new administration did not reverse on desktops. Windows and MS Office remain in use.

    Politician B says “hell no” (hyperbole) to Microsoft switch back

    There was no “hell no”. They adopted a few FOSS tools on Windows. Windows and MS Office remain in use. I already provided a source from June 2025, so quite recent.

    Politician B halts the migration

    You clamed there was no Microsoft migration. You claimed that any sort of Migrosoft migration is garbage misinformation. You're a blatant liar.

  • “In May 2020, it was reported that the newly elected politicians in Munich, while not going back to the original plan of migrating to LiMux wholesale, will prefer Free Software for future endeavours.”

    So you lied. You claimed that Munich said "Hell no" to Microsoft Migration but here you spell it out yourself: The politicians did sell out to Microsoft and only newly elected politicians partially reversed it.

    They use Windows and MS Office on desktops to this day and use Linux on servers and some FOSS tools ON WINDOWS DESKTOPS.

    I was right, you lied.

  • WinRAR path traversal flaw still exploited by numerous hackers

  • People who still use WinRAR kinda deserve that. Seriously. WinRAR in 2026? Like WTF.

  • You first

    Are you afraid to provide any reference to your claim? Do you need extra time making up stuff?

    "Die 43 000 städtischen Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter nutzen also mittlerweile wieder Word, Outlook und PowerPoint [...] Einfacher sei die Software-Frage bei den Servern im städtischen Rechenzentrum zu beantworten. Zwar haben man durchaus auch Windows-Server, aber die meisten laufen mit Linux, so Gernhardt." (29. Juni 2025) https://www.sueddeutsche.de/muenchen/muenchen-verwaltung-open-source-it-microsoft-li.3256886

    So Linux on servers, Windows including MS Office on desktops. The migration to Linux on desktops was completely reversed.

    So where is "“hell no!” (prob in German) and continued the Linux rollout"? Where has it been "garbage misinformation"? Where are the exact stats about opening tickets? After all, you claim "Linux users filling only 40% the number of tickets the Windows users did". That's pretty specific.

  • GOG is seeking a Senior Software Engineer with C++ experience to modernize the GOG GALAXY desktop client and spearhead its Linux development

  • File compression, for starters.

    You can compress folders and entire file systems.

    A dedicated installer is much easier to bring around.

    For one game, maybe. For a bunch of games an automated backup that collects the entire library and save games is much more practical. There are several easy to use solutions, not to mention scripting if you want really fine grained control.

  • the DRM free part only matters if you keep a copy of the installer. Galaxy doesn’t do that.

    Why would that be relevant on Linux? WINE/Proton virtual environments are portable.
