- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

And with ads baked into windows, you're paying for them.
That was the biggest flabbergast for me when I took care of a few work machines recently, after not opening a Windows machine for years.
I installed Linux Mint dual boot on my main PC with Win10 over the holidays. I will not take the ads and ai BS on Win11.
dual boot of windows + linux is known to have issues IIRC
because windows "repairs" the bootloader on each time it's used, so linux becomes disabled.
I rarely boot Windows anymore but when I do, it's via grub. I haven't had an issue with Windows "repairing" the bootloader and disabling Linux. Anecdotal, to be sure, but it seems to be fine.
