One year ago today, a flawed update from CrowdStrike caused a widespread Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) across all Windows devices that had the CrowdStrike software installed. :(

Incase if you're in doubt about that USB Wi-Fi 6 adapter actually supporting the Wi-Fi 6 standard, I've tested it under Windows 10 and it properly reports the Wi-Fi network that it's connected to, as Wi-Fi 6.

Did you know there are some Wi-Fi 6 adapters actually support Windows 7?.There's not many out there that support it, but this one does!. The chip used in this USB Wi-Fi adapter isn't from a well known company (e.g., Realtek, Intel, or MediaTek), it uses Aicsemi's AIC8800 chipset!

This macOS Security feature since Catalina is probably the most redeeming quality from macOS, in a case where you happen to run a malicious app that happens to be ransomware, it'll show a one time confirmation popup to confirm if you want it to access your files in that folder.

"99.98% of viruses aren't gonna work in wine".Uhhhh, don't try running ransomware such as the infamous WannaCry under Wine. 💀. It'll encrypt all of your files outside of Wine such as your Home folder. A single malicious exe with Wine installed, could ruin a Linux user's day.

Because finding a decent pre-updated Windows Vista ISO is very hard to come by, I've found pre-updated Windows Vista ISO images (including multiple languages, not just English!) and reuploaded them!. It includes all updates (including ESUs to April 2025!).

Ever wanted to have a more stable Windows Vista experience on new Intel hardware (from 4th gen and newer)?. The same creator who made the Chromium fork called Supermium, has created a patch to resolve the instability issues when running Windows Vista on newer Intel hardware. 🧵

(The actual Windows 11 Version 25H2 Update aka Windows 11 2025 Update totally isn't a regular cumulative update disguised as a "feature update" that simply changes the reported version number from 24H2 to 25H2 and build number from 26100 to 26200).

Only minor issue is the activity light on the USB Floppy drive will just keep blinking every second when connected.

Looks like it's beginning of the end for Windows 10, some new hardware released such as Realtek's RTL8922A WiFi 7 network card, its drivers doesn't install under Windows 10. 😢
