Its okay just plop some snow over the entrance they'll tire themselves out

Try Linux.

I just want the same interface from Y2K that runs so fucking fast my eyes can’t keep up with my fingers.

This is literally what Linux is always like and it never slows down even after decades. It boots and shuts down in about 3 seconds each. Join us; I spent a lot of time typing a foolproof guide recently. Let me see it actually get used lol!

I just played a game on Steam earlier tonight with friends; it launched WINE under the hood so invisibly that I couldn't believe I wasn't playing it on Windows. Nearly everything is cross-compatible these years with WINE, Bottles, Proton, Lutron, etc. There is basically no fear. If anything, the software typically performs even better.

Well on the dim side, AI companies are buying up all of the new hardware. So we either get software that is somewhat efficient or we eventually move to "computers" that are just streaming sticks we use to access a Microsoft® Copilot® 365® Windows® 12® Azure® Cloud Desktop Experience Subscription Service computer.

tbh the only problem with Windows 10 for me was the telemetry/Forced Edge,which could've been disabled via scripts,as well as lower responsiveness(maybe placebo effect?). but Windows 11, literally some parts of the Operating System use Chromium. Please keep Chromium/Electron/CEF On Desktop apps, i hope other oses wont try to copy this.

Hard disagree. Even though it's initial outing was not the smoothest Windows 10 eventually got there and they made many improvements on Windows 7. So much so that it ran quite well for many many years which is why it was so widely adopted.

Quite frankly it's my belief that the reason they force implemented Windows 11 was because Windows 10 was running so fucking well that they were seeing zero growth in their OS sales cause no one was needing to upgrade anymore. I myself had Windows 10 running on a machine that was over 15 years old. And it ran quite well.

Full of fish?

The telemetry all got backported as far as seven and made a mandatory dependency of some security updates, so within a few weeks of 10's launch, you either had telemetry or a machine that wasn't safe to connect to the Internet.

I miss Windows XP. Take me back to the rolling green hills.

Microsoft isn't the interesting one at this point. I'm more in awe of how the userbase just keeps taking that shit. That's a propaganda victory.

At some point Microsoft will publish an update that will shoot the user's dog and they will just share debloating scripts. Linux is free only if your time yadda yadda.

It's part of their culture. Windows ME.

Adobe Acrobat will grind it to a halt.

to be fair, Acrobat itself is a very heavy heap of dung. There's no reason for anyone to use it if all they do with a .pdf is reading.

god i hate the constant "LOG INTO AN ACCOUNT RIGHT NOW" with passion. i once had to log into a coworkers teams account and apparently windows decided that's good enough and automatically & without asking linked my entire local windows account with her work microsoft account

one log in took hours to undo

learnt my lesson - never log into microsoft through any of their apps, only ever use web based alternatives (and never on your main browser either, as sometimes logging out is just as painful as logging in)

Adobe Acrobat will grind it to a halt. Fucking how.

"Today Microsoft and Adobe are announcing further AI integration of their products. This AI will tune software performance in an attempt to counteract the slowing effects of previous rounds of AI integration."

Just because 11 is worse doesn't mean 10 was good. 10 was a shit-show from the get-go. It came with aggressive dark patterns trying to trick people into installing it over their Win 7 and 8 machines, came with mandatory telemetry, ads in the start menu and a built-in keylogger.

So it's not "fuck 11". It's "fuck Windows".
