Lol, this had me chuckle.

Since the ivermectin didn't kill him, can we push the narrative that injecting a gram of botox will make him live a lot longer?

I'm a great believer in transparency and good governance.

Mystery solved.

I think the Norris-Piastri rivalry might produce some fireworks later on this year.

I think you should be good. If I only had some office people, it would make it a lot easier. But we have a lot of engineers who require specific CAD products (Catia, autoCAD) which would make it difficult, as well as we are completely locked into the Microsoft eco system (M365, MSSQL, Azure). Not even saying it wouldn't be possible for most users, but it would be a massive undertaking (we have around 2000 users in 20 different locations) and I just don't see us getting any type of support for this kind of project. Not in the least because we only jist migrated from on-prem to M365 cloud which was a multi-year project.

We are starting to use Linux more in the server space (Ubuntu and for some applications like Abaqus we will use RHEL) and I'm drafting a proposal to start switching certain databases to Postgresql to save on license costs, but that's about it.

Sounds good. Maybe the community will get some more traction with it.

Ah, sorry, I will put a spoiler alert

Let's see if someone follows the >!soft-soft-soft-hard!< strategy from the F1 movie

That would technically make them lies...

Eh, no. LTSC has an extra 13 months and you can get extended support for W10 enterprise, but MS made the pricing very unattractive (support cost basically doubles each year).

But W10 enterprise is going eol for mainstream support in October just like the home, pro and education editions.

I've been preparing our migration to W11 for 18 months now (we combined that with some other changes, otherwise a simple feature update would have sufficed). And no, linux is not an option.
