Moscow to scrap Microsoft Outlook on Putin's call to use domestic software


Getting rid of the American Spyware Infested Crapware - is a good idea.

Most people have got no idea just how corrupt Microsoft is, how all their software is just one big part of the global surveillance system.

And I suspect, to a much lesser degree, just how bad the Microsoft software actually is.

Retarded cunts and their idiot operating systems and crap software...

Thank fuck for Linux (Xubuntu) and Libre Office.

Authorities in the Russian capital plan to substitute US computer software with locally produced alternatives. As a first step, about 6,000 Moscow officials will start using a corporate e-mail system called MyOffice Mail instead of Microsoft Outlook. 

An idea to get rid of foreign software from computers used by Russian authorities was backed by President Vladimir Putin due to his security concerns after the relationship between Moscow and the West deteriorated over Ukrainian crisis.

In March, the Russian President said that starting from the second half of 2016; all state-backed companies should switch to Russian software. If public authorities want to buy foreign software, they must first consult with a special registry and make sure that there are no similar Russian products. If there are Russian alternatives, authorities will have to explain why Russian software doesn’t suit their needs.

Next year, Moscow wants to expand the software substitution developed by Russian company New Cloud Technologies to as many as 600,000 machines, said Artem Yermolaev, head of information technology at the Russian telecoms operator Rostelecom. Microsoft Windows and Office may be abolished later on, Yermolaev added.

According to the Minister of Communications and Mass Media Nikolay Nikiforov, Russia spends about 20 billion rubles (over $300 million) every year on foreign software, while local companies are ready to provide the government with similar IT solutions.

https://www.rt.com/usa/328707-obama-state-union-address/ US is 'most durable economy in the world' Obama in his last State Of The Union address.

HSBC Bank Australia Limited - a bunch of fucking arseholes.

My Review of HSBC in Australia: Firstly - to make this whole article easier to digest... The first bit is me basically being insane - "This is a BAD place to be doing business with". The second bit is about the management of HSBC being an outright pack of cunts, involved in laundering squillions of cocaine $$$$$ from Mexico via Australia, and back to the USA.... If you find my being off my dial with insane frustration to be a bit hard to chew, just scroll down to the ~~~~~~~~~~ separator, to get to the NASTY Corporate Crap. OK now into my grizzle.... "HSBC - I want to find out why, payments into my account, as well as payements from my account take 2 days longer than other banks, and take 3 days to show up on my account - respectively. Call the head office, ask to be put through to some one in Australia, who was born here and speaks english, and they put me through to a foreign call centre, with some twat who wants to ask me all these questions, so that he can put it i

Lenovo and IBM - the Great Motherboard Replacement Scam

Image
I have one of the Lenovo G570 Laptops. And this is really BAD. The first one is that the management of Lenovo have done a deal with Microsoft to install an Operating System on the hard drive, and they claim that allocating a "special area" of the hard drive for recovery purposes, is a solution in case of "some kind of OS / Hard Drive problem - but they do not give you a copy of the OS on a DVD, to reinstall it, in case the OS crashed or a new HDD was needed etc.... This means that IF your operating system corrupts, your going to be facing a HUGE and BAD uphill battle to get a copy of YOUR operating system from Lenovo. No doing on the spot brain surgery on your own lap top by reinstalling the OS... No. This comes down to you not getting a 20c DVD with your operating system on it, Vs. hours fighting with idiots on the phone and days and or weeks waiting around for the DVD to arrive - if ever. With the amount of down time a non working laptop can cost you in losses, you may
