I was planning on reinstalling windows on my desktop (apparently removing a basically blank hard drive prevents windows from booting) until I saw this. Now I have two arch machines lol
I read the article. Deceptive headline.
I dont see start menu ads? I see the account manager button will take you to your m365 account instead of your local account settings. This is what’s inside the article, i dont know where they got the title from.
thats an ad for their cloud services
I prefer this to Microsoft Edge stealing (importing) all my chrome passwords and bookmarks without my consent. Something they do from time to time.
Both? Both. And how was that screen transcriber called? I don’t know, but let’s try that one again. (I wish it was “/s”)
Windows Recall, the screengrabber they were about to release with an unencrypted database as an opt-out feature.
It seems the report of my demise has been greatly exaggerated, would you like to see an ad?
I love this image, but you know that Clippy would be holding the gun sideways, gangster style.
Install Windows > English UK > None of the bullshit
What does that do?
Windows treats you as being protected by European norms so you don’t have to experience all the bullshit… I’ve never seen any of the ads people keep talking about, I don’t live in Europe, I just tell Windows to use English UK as Windows’ language and then set my regional stuff based on what I actually want.
Just in case you thought they forgot to hate you even more for still refusing to update to Windows 11.
Have you heard of Linux?
It’s been at least an hour! Tell me about it!
Oh yeah I love his tech tips!
You’re thinking of Linus Torvalds, a popular Youtuber who gives tech advice.
That’s some STD right?
I wish it would start spreading like one. Would improve things for many people.
Yeah, basically. Except for the S part.
