Fricking Windoes. Imagine having to actively opt-out of advertising on an OS you paid for in the first place.
Frick Microsoft to heck.

gotta treat windows like you're an abusive partner. Shut them up, do not give them any say in what goes on, you will UPDATE WHEN I FRICKING TELL YOU TO UPDATE, and what are you r-slurred? don't let it call home, find all channels of communication and cut that shit.

I actually understand the update thing. Everyone just clicks 'later' for about 2 years and then wonder why they get pwned with a virus that got patched 10 updates ago

this is true, definitely update the OS security, I just don't like opening the computer to an update screen knowing every program I had up is closed and possibly corrupted

All my apps break if I let it install the 22H2 update. I haven't figured out why. Fusion, Cura, Krita.... they won't launch. No errors, no logs. The process appears for two seconds then quietly disappears.
Reinstalled Windows numerous times. On an absolute fresh install of 22H2, still won't work.
Once I was about to fedpost because I got everything working on 21H2, went to bed, and when I woke up it was all broken again -- Windows updated to 22H2 overnight.
So now I have 21H2 with an update blocker installed.

It wont be illegal, it will be sabotaged into uselessness and die a slow tortured death in obscurity.

I've been dual booting for ages but I'm still primarily Windows. Once they (supposedly) drop support for Windows 10 in 2025 I'm gonna have to figure out how to go Linux full time.

Theyre gonna drop support? Thought it was forever, or at least for longer than this.

Originally they were going to support it forever and it was going to be the last ever windows but then they realised they can't force people to buy new windows every 5 years if they do that so quietly went back to the old ways and released windows 11 lol

They typically offer free upgrades and most of their money comes from businesses which just pay a subscription.

Yeah they've said they'll support it until at least October 2025. They could extend it but who knows.

You could just switch to Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC. Active support ends in 2027, and security support ends in 2032.

I'm more irritated that the USB dongle doesn't Just Work.
You have to uninstall the default drivers, search for Xbox – Network adapters – 1.0.45.4 on some old school Microsoft backend website, then manually "i have the disk" install the driver.
