Wait! that isn't a win11 core functionality ?

Glad I only have microslop on my work PC. My linux upgrades have never failed me

    If I get to witness the complete and utter fall of Microslop from sheer incompetence and stupidity within my lifetime, I will be very, very happy. Until then, watching them drown above water like this will suffice.

    They will unfortunately come back from this. It's almost impossible for the company to actually fail since they have so many options due to their size and position.

    But yes, would love to see them really start to decrease profits and go down a lot on the stock market.

    Windows update broke keys working on my keyboard and the backlight. I keep trying to pause updates until I get time to trawl the net and scout potential problems and solutions, but apparently they broke that, too. -_-

    Not my PC, that's for sure. Got fed with with Microslop bullshit back in 2011, installed Linux and never looked back

    As always, "how can you tell when someone uses Linux? Don't worry, they'll tell you"

    (I'm trying out mint)

    Tbf it's hard not to "told ya so" the "just works" people when it don't "just work."

    It should work, they're a billion dollar corporation with the resources to do it and come default so all hardware issues are worked out before shipping by the OEM, and they're still making linux look good by dropping the bag so hard, they deserve it tbh.

    Well, when the conversations comes up talking about the Windows 11 crashing or has some horrible bug again, then yes, they will definitely tell you. It's kinda hard not to educate people that it's fairly easy to just switch to an OS that actually works.

    I still have a laptop with windows that I use for gaming with some people, and I haven't updated it in probably 6 months because every new update this year breaks something. The only thing I've been updating are my games.

    I'm sure that's fine and definitely won't cause any security issues down the line...
