Microsoft is a major provider of cloud services and artificial intelligence for the Israeli military, according to internal documents related to the contracts between the Israeli Ministry of Defense (MoD) and Microsoft Israel obtained by Drop Site News. The leaked documents show that Israel’s usage spiked dramatically in the months following October 7, 2023 when Israel was using AI and other technology to wage its brutal war on Gaza.
The trove of documents reveals that Microsoft’s ties to the Israeli military are deeper and more lucrative than previously known, exposing the tech giant’s role in supplying advanced cloud and AI services during the war that multiple international bodies, including the International Court of Justice, ruled may plausibly constitute a genocide.
Leaked data show a dramatic spike in Microsoft cloud storage used by the Israeli military, jumping more than 155 percent between June 2023 and April 2024, and peaking just before the Rafah offensive in May 2024. Storage use is an important indicator showing the extent of AI usage, since storage usually grows along with the usage of other cloud products.
I’m not sure about modding, as I never do any mods nor develop them. That’s why I talked about the shooter games, since they’re a major issue for people who play them and want to move to Linux. Because most of them don’t work. I know some modding software works on Linux through proton/wine, but I’ve never tried them.
It’s like that feeling on the diving board before you jump in the pool without knowing how warm or cold the water is. I’m still afraid of getting wet, if you know what I mean.
I’m there with you but my understanding is it’s free to try and you can dual boot both of them easily without major changes.
That being said, I have not tried Linux myself in over 10 years.
I just wanna stop feeling bad when Muta yells at me.
