Twice after a windows update I lost my bootloader menu and my laptop would boot straight into Windows. After the second time I just removed Windows. Some investigation revealed that "Windows does not support dual booting" which I believe translates to "we will ocationally cause issues that a beginner would struggle to fix in the hopes of them staying on Windows." Just a theory. Separate drives for sure if you can. No idea if they still do this as it's been years since I dual booted

I mean, I agree, but the problem isn't just that I see this at work. I shouldn't have to see it on a paid operating system. This is a normal user experience on Windows. Ads everywhere is annoying. I understand people can be proactive to disable this stuff, but I think it's crumby of Microsoft to do

It's a work laptop We're a small company - I still feel like calling our IT terrible instead of Microsoft is misguided though

It was literally a notification; made a sound and everything. Didn't go out of my way to see it. I'm not used to ads in my operating system so it was jarring. Surprised people accept it as normal

Lol I had to install AutoHotKey just to be able to do some basic keymapping on Windows. "Can be made good" is so different than "is good"

But yes our IT team is just one dude with a degree in biology

Pretty sure the law specifies minimum size of the poster and states that the motto must be the focus of the poster...

I think multiple signs from many deities might be nice. Especially the flying spaghetti monster.

Have you tried other proton versions? I think I use a glorious eggroll custom proton for bo3. I think something to do with videos not playing

Family always played Scrabble and I did not like it... In college my friends frequently played Dominion but I always opted out because I thought I didn't like board games. Eventually I tried it and fell down a rabbit hole
