Other than “at gunpoint,” why are you still using Windows?

Thanks. Will not switch from Gentoo to Windows today.

I have more interest in starting a WatchWindowsDie group than I do in going back to Windows, but it seems like the entire internet is already on the beat.

Just switch to Linux guys, stop being abused.

Way ahead of ya, champ.

This is the Preview channel update. People that opted into it should anticipate issues.

skip microsoft altogether

Quit Windows today *

Or, y'know, just install Linux?

there, I fixed it.

Gotta love that AI generated, reviewed, and shipped code.

Just when I thought Windows couldn't get worse.

Can't skip the update if you don't have any Windows installations.

For the people not using Linux in the comment section, you can't skip a Windows update. It's going to happen no matter what.

I mean I guess you can adjust the registry or whatever but 90% of Windows users aren't going to do any of that.

I could have done it and I didn't. I updated and now my cursor is all fucked up.

Thanks for the heads-up, I'll be sure to not update my OpenSUSE install to Windows 11 👍

LOL

Oh, Microslop... How far you have sunk.

Fuck Windows. 2026 truly is the year of Linux. Finally!

Today on Microslop...

Another day... another windows update failure...

Glad I got out when I did.

Install Linux*, Problem Solved.

*Make it Mint.

Genuine question: how the hell does this keep happening? Don't they have any quality control, any testing, competent management, quality engineers, years of experience, or anything at all?

Easy work. Me and my Bazzite instance will keep on trucking.
