Oh, Microsoft will still find a way to annoy them, mark my words

I’m pretty sure a YouTube channel researched this one pretty thoroughly. Try checking out the Why Files. The entire channel is fascinating, intertwining, and informative.

That’s an insult little dick energy

Already on Pop_OS ;)

I have windows dual booted for a couple things I can’t live or do school without and don’t have viable options for Linux

Same if you click any of the ChatGPT copilot shit baked into the start menu.

Every time I see this story I laugh. Thanks for posting it.

I’m seconding the “no Facebook” thing, and I’d add “no Meta-Owned anything”. Facebook is constantly showing me conspiracy flat earth shit with people honest to god arguing about it, and everyone in other posts strangely all comment the same thing or early similar things to the point that I’ve checked peoples accounts out to see if they are bots or not. Instagram isn’t much better, and a LOT of it is basically soft-core attention seeking influencers. Threads… Isn’t giving anything better than what Mastodon offers.

I swear. One of these days I will pull the plug.

The Sith have been dead for a thousand years!

True, although I should have specified that I was talking about the computer generated models.

Awesome informative reply. I’ve long wondered about how some creators get the same “face” in some insta accounts.

But are you sure you don’t want to make Edge your default browser??

Now I understand why my narcissist brother was always on LI

My reason was that I had heard windows 11 was considering ads in their file explorer. Win10 already has enough prompts pushing edge and OneDrive. That, and many of my professors use Linux, and the ease with which they would install Python or C compilers was too much.

A few others have mentioned Pop_OS! for their Nvidia driver support which is what I’m running too. I think I’m on version 535.93 or something like that. Most of the Ubuntu downstream (Ubuntu, mint, pop_os, etc,.) already include The proprietary drivers in their repos. Pop_OS is known for Nvidia support being a bit quicker than the others.

I’d suggest looking into dual booting (thats what I do, there are a few things that work better on windows). It’s super easy to set up, and it’s an easy low risk way to see if it works for you.

That and fucking OneDrive. Autosave isn’t able to function on O365 without OneDrive screw you microsoft

It’s because of shit like this that I’m glad I switched to Linux.
