It's 14 October … but #EndOf10 is not ending. We now have another 12 months and we are only getting started! 🚀

#Microsoft has delayed #Windows10 End of Life to 13 October 2026.

They say it is "free", but really it's at the cost of your data while tying you to a corporate ecosystem. It'll only be harder later when the time comes to move on.

Reason 1 To Choose Linux 😍

It makes computing FUN again! 🚀

Digital technology feels more and more exploitative & disempowering. Joy & wonderment are increasingly exhaustion & frustration.

The focus of #Linux 🐧 is you - the user.

Your computer can be a device you WANT to use. Bring the FUN back into your computing! 😎

Join millions of people enjoying and creating independent people-centered technology.

The fun of Saturday morning science is over, so it's on to the business of the day #EndOf10 and the opportunity to convert the teenager's laptop to linux mint. Follow along with my no doubt enraging journey through the #Windows10 minefield here. (or mute if you don't want to hear it).
First task is to find a flash drive with enough space and or disposable files on it...

"Instead of sending public money to distant corporations, funds stay local and support IT jobs for regional developers and entrepreneurs. The use of open-source #Linux distributions also extends the life of existing hardware and reduces e-waste, which proprietary models can exploit for unnecessary spending."
