"Running Windows apps on Linux is achieved mainly by two methods, though there are a number of factors to consider."

"Una de la últimas actualizaciones de Windows 10 permite ejecutar Linux y el sistema operativo de Microsoft en un mismo equipo, pero, como ha señalado el arquitecto de CrowdStrike, Alex Ionescu, en la conferencia Black Hat celebrada la semana pasada en Estados Unidos, se han encontrado graves vulnerabilidades que ponen en peligro la seguridad del usuario.

"The enterprise tycoon comes up against the open source underdog in our operating system showdown When most people think of the battle for best operating system, they often think of the continuous struggle between Windows and OSX."

"Arne Rogde Gramstad University of Oslo, Department of Economics, Students February 5, 2016 Abstract: The open-source software operating system Linux is a free-of-charge substitute to proprietary systems like Microsoft Windows. By using a cross-country data set, this paper finds evidence that increased piracy of proprietary software has a negative impact on adoption of desktop versions of Linux. The interpretation of this result is that the availability of pirated versions of Windows leads to fewer individuals installing a Linux operating system on their desktop computers. Thus, in the absence of software piracy, Linux would be a more widely used operating system.

"Con todo lo dicho, recientemente se ha encontrado un subsistema Linux en Windows 10 Build 14251, perteneciente a la versión de escritorio del sistema operativo de Microsoft."

"Last updated on May 31, 2016 Authored by Dennis Turpitka 4 Comments Device drivers are parts of the operating system that facilitate usage of hardware devices via certain programming interface so that software applications can control and operate the devices. As each driver is specific to a particular operating system, you need separate Linux, Windows, or Unix device drivers to enable the use of your device on different computers. "

"Written by Michael Larabel in Software on 29 May 2016. Page 1 of 3. 5 Comments After a very exciting past two weeks, the merge window for Linux 4.7 is expected to close today. This was an action-packed merge window with a ton of new code being introduced. While I've already written dozens of posts on Phoronix about the changes that got me excited, here's my usual kernel feature overview. Here's a look at what's coming for Linux 4.7."

"In the past two days, Microsoft has released (more accurately, re-released) six patches. Almost all of them have been identified, in the past, as "snooping" or "nagware" patches. One is marked "Important," at least on some PCs, so folks with Automatic Update turned on will get the new versions automatically, potentially wiping out any precautions they've taken before."

"El inconveniente es que algunas versiones de Linux y otros sistemas operativos no conseguían arrancar al no reconocer la validez de sus códigos. "

"I've been a desktop Linux user for seventeen years. For eight of those years, I haven't had a copy of Windows installed on any machine in the house."

"OSCON interview with Andreia Gaita . .. Most of the time I have projects combining C/C++ and C# and | I want to build all the different configurations at the same time from the same source tree (Debug, Release, Windows, OSX, Linux, Android, iOS, etc, etc.), and that usually requires selecting and invoking different compilers with different flags per output build artifact.

"Phil Shapiro The Video Screening Room The DMCA doesn't just make it illegal for you to circumvent DRM to rip and burn a DVD of 'War Games' or to install a pirated copy of Windows. It also can make it illegal for you to repair or modify things you own. Public television and radio in the United States have been surprisingly shy about covering the open source movement, but this video by Mike Rugnetta at PBS Digital Studios shows that they may be waking up."

"El uso de Linux en los gobiernos ha sufrido dos duros golpes en una sola semana. ¿Deberían los gobiernos pagar millones de euros por licencias de código privativo?. Mucha gente cree que no, sobre todo cuando existen alternativas abiertas. La ciudad alemana de Múnich y el gobierno de Brasil eran dos referencias de lo que se podía hacer adoptando el software libre; sin embargo, eso parece que está a punto de terminar. Múnich, la ciudad linuxera que está tentando el cambio a Windows ..."

"Christine Hall When I read that the Takoma Park Maryland Library has 28 workstations running Linux, I literally couldn't believe it. Really? A library offering the public Linux? Whenever I go to a library, all I ever see are Windows machines or maybe a Mac or two. When I mention Linux as an alternative, and I sometimes do, I'm usually met with blank stares and the staff begins to think I'm nuts."
