High time to switch to Linux if you ask me
Comment on USB hubs, printers, Java, and more seemingly broken by macOS 14.4 update

Vendor: Here’s our latest update, it’s mandatory, if you don’t implement it within 30 days your license will invalidate.
IT Department: Does the update Great well now two core tools we need to do daily work aren’t there anymore.
Vendor: Yeah, we removed them for your convenience, well being, user experience, and personal happiness.
IT Department: But we need them otherwise the software is useless to us.
Vendor: Oh in that case, our new product Premium Plus^^tm does those things but isn’t bundled with your tier of product so please cut us a check for the $5k a month difference and you’ll be good to go!

Corporate IT never goes for it, unfortunately.
My experience thus far is that the intersection of IT professionals and people who know how to administrate Linux systems well is a really small set of people. Not enough sysadmins these days.

Unfortunately the “management” (aka spyware) software is not developed with Linux in mind. I tried pushing it in our environment, it was shut down very quickly once the spyware didn’t support it.
