25H2 is Microsoft’s latest major release, featuring a refined interface, faster performance, enhanced security, and better hardware support. It’s the most polished Windows 11 experience, making it ideal for virtual machines.

This is either the biggest load of horse manure ever vomited or a scathing indictment of the true quality of MS product. Either way, i am glad i don’t need those instructions.

See the end of my previous statement.

The 9/11 Terrorists were Muslim / The 9/11 Terrorists were Muslim

The Oct. 7th terrorist attackers were Muslim / The Oct. 7th terrorist attackers were Muslim

And the Iranian State backing terrorism is a self proclaimed Islamic Republic / Iran is Muslim

So Terrorism is…

See what this kind of BS logic can lead to? F off with this rampant bigotry.

Fax? WTF is that?

It is when the president is a felon apparently

Too funny. They’d need to go back to Win95 for all that.

I agree 100% with the sentiment, but it 100% does not apply to Linux. The (when it actually exists which too often it doesn’t) ‘manual’ 90% of the time is written out of order by an expert presuming that 98% of what is being stated isn’t greek to the newb and consequently ends up being completely useless if not downright harmful for them.

My favourite so far is: App has feature that can be installed but requires several dependencies before it will install it. The feature has it’s own ‘handy’ cli command to point to an AppImage for a dependency which is useless because THE APP WON"T INSTALL THE FEATURE IN THE FIRST PLACE WITHOUT THE DEPENDENCY.

I don’t want to spend all my spare time for a week learning about commands and syntax for 5 other distros trying to figure out why this fucking [insert device that supposedly nobody else ever has a problem with] isn’t working. I’m not looking for a job in IT. I don’t want to burn my eyeballs out translating nerdspeak. This isn’t fun. I just want to click it and it works, which is apparently still too much to ask for after 20 years and 600 stupid distros later.

RTFM. GFY Linux. Learn how to write manuals first. Far as I can see, it’s a bunch of BS instructions that error out halfway through for some reason or another.

I currently have a dual boot with Win10 as I just moved to Mint this month. The MS store keeps trying to update or install apps with copilot even though I don’t have it installed. Like, I uninstalled the notepad app just to prevent this crap and they keep adding it to other apps. The latest one is the GD photo viewer so I had to uninstall that and find an OS one to replace it with.

Win10 is NOT a safe haven and I am so glad I’ve switched to Linux and recommend it to everyone who’ll listen. The only reason I keep Win10 on is in case I forgot an important file or something (I always do), or absolutely need it for some software (no idea if any exist for me) I use that only works with MS.

Stop it. I can’t breathe!

When you say “won’t properly display” it is too vague. Just from my experience ‘not properly displaying’ can mean a solid black screen, a black screen full of RGB noise, or a display that is blurry and stripped but you can actually interact with the OS. Could you clarify this?

I’d be happier if they just fix whatever breaks click highlighting in the terminal. I hate that shit and I think it’s accidentally attempting to paste via Ctrl-V that does it so F my habitual ass.

$500g’s… yoink lol

Whenever I need to refuel my rage tank I think of the fact that the Nvidia Settings window cannot be resized AND it’s dimensions are significantly larger than some key display settings like, oh I don’t know 720p . This means you often can’t choose certain settings or APPLY button because it is pushed below screen.

Being able to comfortably change screen resolution is that fucking windows ONE JOB and it fails spectacularly.

Edit: FTR it seems like recent versions do make the window resizable with actual scroll bars but for a long time this basic concept eluded them, and any old windows installs get f’d with this until you update.
