If this lets you monitor the patch status of the end clients in your org, then it’s actually cheaper than existing solutions used for managing regular Windows updates.

The only questionable part is how reliable, trustworthy, and secure is 0patch themselves?

Allowing a third party access to patch system level files opens the risk of a rootkit install. (In fact their agent being able to access system would function much like a rootkit itself).

They could easily backdoor something into thousands, or even tens of thousands of PC very quickly. Make a huge botnet, steal data, etc, etc.

Assuming they are trustworthy themselves, if their security is compromised, either from hackers or even a rogue employee, the same results could happen and could take a long time to discover.

I haven’t heard it in years and it got stuck in my head true second I read the name above.

Dawww doodooodoodo dodooo daw daw daw daw dawww.

Fuck EA.

Yet another example of a situation where if a company refuses to maintain an IP they should have to give it up.

Tech sites say that it’s officially licenses by Steam, and it has the Steam logo on it.

Either they have Valve’s blessing on it, or Valve’s legal team is fuckin sleeping.

Can’t wait to pirate it!

Saw a post today with the new “official” Steam Controller. It’s trash. None of the features that made the first one cool. Doesn’t even have rumble.

One of these things is not like the others. Falcon 9 have liked anyone yet.

Cool. Can’t wait to pirate this.

So maybe stop overfishing the oceans??

Even the ROG Ally comes with a free month of GamePass Ultimate, and a new Xbox comes with 90 days. I don’t see why a MS first party handheld wouldn’t come with some.

Microsoft could just drop a Windows handheld that can play Xbox games natively.

The Xbox already runs on a custom VM based on Windows 10/11. Microsoft themselves are the only ones keeping the two who systems separated by artificial software limitations.

We’re at a point where a company makes an operating system used by a majority of the population while they force you to use your personal online account to log in

I find it hilarious to see how many people rage at this from their iPhone or Android phone where they are logged in with a personal online account in order for the device to function.

You need a Microsoft account to play Minecraft anyway, so you still would have had set one up.

All chaps are assless

Who wants to take bets that Search itself ends up in The Graveyard soon, leaving nothing but the new AI abomination in place?

That wasn’t the question.

I saw this exact same “reporting” on the Verge and several other sites yesterday and earlier in the week, and without the paywall 404 has half way down reading the article.

Ever try Media Monkey?

They said New York, not the US. New York is it’s whole own little world. And it’s pretty raw.
