So widgets, touchscreen and copilot?

Everything else you said arguably applies more to win10.

But the facts are still the facts.

Indeed. That’s why I stay the fuck away.

My comment had nothing to do with Lemmy.

I haven't had a bsod since upgrading.

If this is the thing you think of as a way to talk it up, it’s worse than I thought.

You’re just literally the only person I’ve ever heard say this, so I guess I’m skeptical.

I had an i7-7700, which somehow fell into a weird gap where win11 just wasn’t supported.

Held onto win10 for a while with it before upgrading in like October 2025. At that point I’d watched m$ blow it over and over, including the fiasco that is Recall in win11, not to mention all to copilot shit.

District hopped a little before landing on cachyos for now, which has been pretty great, and haven’t looked back.

Of all the big corpus, m$ is the one that pisses me off the most.

What if I told you the guy that invented it is named Jason?

He’s probably not, but what if?

[-] jve@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

[-] jve@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Are people abusing it?

Or they fear how retribution will hurt their bottom line.

Not necessarily “ok with it” but more ok with it than they are with risking blowback.

Call it VPorN

Or PN in the V

Or maybe something more discreet I guess, but that’s no fun.

I've been slow to make an upgrade, and figure what better time to switch to linux?

Did what I could to try to research that the parts were all fairly linux friendly, with a warning about the motherboard's wifi7 maybe not yet supported yet by the kernel.

Looking for a mid-high range build without going crazy on the cost. Build actually came in a bit cheaper than I expected, so feel like maybe I'm missing something here.

My monitor, which I'm planning to keep, does have G-Sync, but I don't know that I'll miss it.

PS: I know i can get more life out of my old hardware, but I want to turn that into a NAS.

EDIT: Fixed link.

Lifetime Pass Member.. just put on The Devils Advocate (1997) and got a full 30s ad.

… just paused it to verify it was actually in my library… -and got another 2 ads… what the actual fuck? Just me?

EDIT: Looking back at the app, seems I was somehow in Plex Streaming, but how it was put up above my own content I can’t understand, and the movie page does not make it obvious that’s what I’m looking at.
