this is the part I can't understand. no one wants this. if you understand what this is doing, you wouldn't want it. holy shit why
They don't care if we want it. They want the info it'll give them. This isn't for us, it's for them.
They'll rush it anyway.
Sorry your private data got shared out. Bug's fixed now but everyone knows about your bizarre top hat fetish.
Wait... How did YOU know about my bizarre top hat fetish?
Remember kids, Recall can't come into your house if you don't explicitly install Windows.
It's like vampires with invitations, zombies with brain-salads, or werewolves if you show them your butt.
It W10 for gaming and Linux for everything else at this point.
My Steam Deck convinced me to try Linux (Debian) a try for desktop gaming. So long as you install the latest GPU drivers, it's smooth as butter. I guess what I'm saying is Linux for everything at this point... for those capable of installing drivers from the CLI.
I fought with Ubuntu for a weekend trying to get it to run my game library. I failed.
I will give it a swing again when steam stops W10 support.
Protondb is your friend. I haven't actually been there in months though as everything I've played recently has just worked without issue.
I couldn't get anything Debian based to install correctly. I ended up using Garuda, dragonized edition. It took less setup than a fresh windows install.
That's what I'm on too. It's Arch based, which may scare some people because of the reputation, but it's so easy. It comes with tools to install any packages you may need for gaming or other applications. It also comes setup with the AUR so you can "easily" (you have to use the terminal for this, but it's not hard) install packages from there.
For gaming Garuda dragonized is probably the best way to go. I hate the "gamer" aesthetic, but that's easy to change.
Try Linux for gaming now. It's incredibly good. Most games run on par with Windows, with a few actually running better on Linux. There's only a handful of games that don't run on Linux, and that's games with DRM or anti-cheat that has chosen to not support it. I think I've even heard that Valorant, with its kernel level AC can (with some difficulty) run Linux, but I'd probably just say to avoid it if you don't mind.
Good. Fuck microshit
It's important to get this right, or they might have to...recall it.
Good. Let it fucking die.
Hurry up, we need more people ditching your awful operating systems. Please and thank you.
I've still yet to see a decent generalized use case for AI, it just feels like an extremely complicated and energy intensive solution desperately looking for a problem to justify it's existence.

I'm convinced they're already collecting data for it. I can't think of any other reason for the massive drop in system performance on Windows 11.
