I find this mildly infuriating, I only use Windows for work, I even personally purchased Windows 11. Local account and disabled as much as I could. I personally do not like Windows or Windows in general.

Well, now I do an update and they throw this up like I need to walk thru these steps (again). Not even a "Skip"/"Don't remind me again". Windows is not what it used to be and after disabling half the Microsoft stuff I'd expect not to be bothered again. It's really a built in ad more then anything.

So glad i ditched windows a decade ago and never locked back once. What a shit show

Comments like these from Linux users are the equivalent of going on a car maintenance community where someone has said "I'm having a problem with the brake lights on my 2021 Hyundai i20N"

And replying "Hi, I have a Renault Clio and I don't have that problem"

There are short term solutions and they are long term solutions.

If your relationship is abusive, you can try to fix it but after years of no effect it's better to prepare for new one. It's a tool, no feelings for it. Don't get abused by silly thing like a operating system brand.

If you have a Renault I don't believe you that you don't have a problem.

Yeah the two car models should be switched, Hyundais are tanks nowadays

Eh, not quite. I'd say a better analogy involves the posts being "I have a (insert car model here) and the brakes are making worrying squealing noises", and "Hi, here's a (link) to a trade-in offer for a model of car that's much less likely to have the brakes fail on you. It won't even cost you anything to swap except 30 minutes of your time."

...and by the way it only runs 80% of the time and there's no way of knowing when 😂

I always wonder what people like you do for CAD.

Try to remember that some of us have to use windows for work. Comments like yours are unhelpful. The world would be entirely made of of people who don't care/complain + people on Linux if it weren't for certain software.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do a lot of CNC cutting, 3D printing and designing my own parts. U may laugh at it but i am very fine with using FreeCAD and OpenSCAD for that.

[–] totallynotarobot 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Why would I laugh? That's awesome that you have a non-Windows solution, and suggests that on the glorious day when I CAD only for hobbies or self-directed work and not for the man that I will have options.

Until then, Windows it is.
