I am pretty sure the Feedback Hub has this functionality built in (not the mind reading
). But I always uninstall it. I have seen a setting for how often MS can ask for your feedback at least.
That's what every "too big to fail" company thinks, until something happens to them. XBOX is already a dead brand. Windows can be too. I didn't think it possible even a year ago, but moving to Linux doesn't seem that far fetched now. And not because linux became so much better, but because windows has become so much worse and continues to get even worse. Every update is a gamble now whether your computer will even boot after it.
and somehow that's supposed to be a good thing?!
I did not predict the year of linux I predict the end of windows. Normies have already abandoned desktop PCs for smartphones and tablets. GenZ never even used it to begin with
They keep saying this but cloud is simply DOA. For big compute usually means big data, so bandwidth and storage makes the cloud impractical and much slower. Not to mention the cost of terabytes of SSD storage on cloud. And for gaming they'd need faster than light communications to make the lag bearable. Not to mention the bandwidth cost (again) for decent IQ.
I think we are now ready for Linux. problem is finding cheap hardware for a build. that will be beyond 2030
This is true. If it weren't for Office for work and gaming I wouldn't need Windows at all.
I've been looking hard as my next personal laptop being a mac.
Microsoft themselves were the ones who convinced me to start using Linux as my main OS. Thanks Microsoft! It's been a few years now, and I am NOT going back. Windows 7 was the last Windows OS that I used as a main OS. I still dual-boot and use Windows for some things, but the vast majority of my PC usage time is in Linux now. If Microsoft hadn't kept f*cking Windows up, making each one after 7 worse and worse (well 10 was better than 8, but still overall downhill trajectory), I'd probably still be 100% on Windows. I'm glad that ship has sailed though. I f*cking love Linux! And I owe it all to Microsoft and their incompetence.
Gawd that's such a f*cking weird thing to read. I'm headed towards 50, and I've been basically living on desktop PCs since I my early teenage years. I hate touchscreens, I barely use my smartphone as anything more than a phone (I guess it's also my camera), and I didn't even start using laptops until the 2010s (still don't like them, but they can be handy from time to time). I am 100% a desktop PC guy, and I will be for life.
Not the first feature they took away but it might be the most high profile one, although I didn't use it since W95. But there is a reason for it, and it's control. MS has been slowly eroding user oversight and control in windows like the ability to control when and how updates are installed. It's psychological warfare against their own users, the terminology didn't change from "Your computer" to "The computer" in Windows 10 by accident. They want you to give up control, it's no longer your computer it is MS's for all intents and purposes.
