Microsoft is asshoe.
They tried to force update a Windows 10 Home machine to Windows 11. Nobody clicked okay on anything. It had icon in task bar indicating it would install it on reboot. I had to go into the update settings to click "no for now". Fuck you microsoft. Eat shit and die. Just leave my shit alone.

Yeah, I'm not that surprised, after all windows 11 has only recently overtaken

*checks notes *

XP.

@atheist The biggest issue I have is "some things may not work in windows 11" is like part of the windows 11 tagline.

@Demolishun yeah... I tried the update, didn't notice anything "broken", just a lot of things were "worse". Rolled back fairly promptly.

Fortunately my pc has a software TPM that I disabled (meaning my pc "doesn't meet the hardware requirements") and I'm running pro, so it hasn't tried to update on its own.

@atheist My main machine is pro. I have more control there. I may just change these others to Linux and give MS the finger.

MS: "we need more spyware, and ads in the start menu for our crap. What do?"

If you hate so much thier products : Easy : Stop using them.

@NoToJavaScript hard to do that when it's a requirement of the job.

@sariel change the company 😛 and next time join company who doesn't force shitOS onto you.

Btw what are you developing that mandates the use of windows ?

@avneesh I don't even use Windows to develop on. The combination of excel, word, teams, Skype, slack, zoom, etc all work fine on windows.

I tried Linux alternatives, they have two problems.

1) feature parity is way off
2) I got sick of the complaints that "document/spreadshit" broke the formatting.

Now I use Windows so that I don't have to listen to my boss whinging about shit that doesn't matter.

@sariel yeah I know... My comment was not for someone who is on windows ecosystem.obviously windows software will work fine on windows... 😛 else why would have it has been commercial success..

Windows were always made with WYSIWYG in mind...

Just try installing redis on windows 😉

why bill gates was never assassinated?
