Practically all famous Linux distro's offer built in encryption when setting up a new system using luks/dm-crypt. But you don't have to worry about it.
To encrypt a Windows 10 system u can use Veracrypt to boot the whole OS or just a container.
For Windows (Enterprise) you can also use BitLocker by Microsoft although the source code isn't trusted and I believe you have have a more expensive license in order to use it.
Yes you should encrypt your laptop. It's worth it in case you lose a laptop or it gets stolen nobody can read the data.
Truth is people don't care what operating system they get as long as it 'just works'. LibreOffice is IMO too ugly and unusable to use for tech illiterates.
Windows 10 and defender does a bloody good job of blocking lots of malware. Think of tools like mimikatz. You don't see Ubuntu blocking a mimikatz-like binaries.
Firefox is slower compared to Chrome. People care about speed. Firefox is also not privacy friendly. Lots of telemetry to mozilla/google.
You are out of touch and have embraced the cult that is Linux, Open Source. I don't understand why the algorithm pushes your post to the top.
It has been less than a month after fixes emerged for kernels and your PoC exploit has already been released into the public. Should you not have waited at least a bit longer (for example 2 months) before disclosing this vulnerability so that people/companies can keep up with patching? Don't they need more time to patch their servers and legacy etc before this becomes yet another log4j exploitation fest? That is if this really is the new dirty cow vuln.
I get responsible disclosure is important, but should we not give people some more opportunity to patch, which will always take some time?
Ofcourse it does. And ofcourse even with all settings 'off' to gain privacy, data is still being sent. It's Microsoft. They earn money with your data just as Google does. We know they do. And we don't know the full source code.
Wow this looks neat, modern and clean! I wish other similar toolkits for other languages look as great, blue style for the workplace. Love it.
Sadly their docs github webpage is not built with that toolkit. It would be logic and cool if it did so that we immediately can see what it looks like. Load in the button as a real application would do etc.
Also the docs webpage could be clearer, easier to navigate etc.
