Removing the M$ repository

You might have noticed the discussion about that Microsoft repository which the Raspberry Foundation has added – without any notice – to their Raspian OS. The vscode repo adds a Visual Studio Code Editor to Raspian – directly from Microsofts app servers. So whenever you run apt-get update you Pi will contact Microsoft. Since raspiBOINC is about crunching we do not need that repo in our installation. There are 3 simple steps to remove that repository from your Pi:

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vscode.list
sudo rm /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/microsoft.gpg
sudo apt update

Hey, I am Jan. I am an IT Project and Technical Application Manager specialized on Output Management und CCM Solutions.

I have always been that hands on guy. Since it has not been possible in my business to get in touch with kubernetes I decided to do something on my own. Crunching with BOINC looks reasonable for me here.

I first registred for SETI@Home on 07. July in 1999. Happy crunching!
