    Besides solidworks, there isn't anything I do that requires mf'ing windows. I could spin up a vm for solidworks. I hate it.

    Could be worse. This summer IT replaced all of our desktop mini PCs with Chromeboxes and ChromeOS. I don't even have privileges. Any software I would want to install would have to come from google play store and requires admin level privileges. I normally download the desktop app to play Spotify on my computer, but can't even do that. I can't even change the fucking desktop background. The ONLY software freedom I have is chrome extensions and even that is a walled garden of Google's making. Manifest v3 is going to make using my desktop nearly impossible compared to the freedom I have at home.

    Honestly they could probably just take the damn thing out of my office at this point. I really only use it for documentation or continuing education so I could just use my personal laptop or go back to pen and paper for that. Anything else I would have done in my downtime at work can just wait until I get home.
