  It would be a shame if something were to happen to your files!

Without windows and macos, we would all be divided on what is the better distro, but thanks to shitty corpo trash, we can unite to hate them together. Fuck windows!

Ubuntu could have taken windows spot
- They are nowhere near close to windows

You WILL set up Cortana or you WILL be put through the Setup Wizard

My wife started joking about " if I update it at this point it's gonna brick it" and I laughed so hard because she's not even an IT person

Due to all the registry and group policy changes I've made to decrapify Windows, I'm legitimately worried that every major update will brick my install. Luckily so far they've only make it worse in the ways that Microsoft intended.

"New device detected: mouse. Please wait…"

But the mouse is already working dude.

At least it doesn't make us restart afterwards anymore.
- "Mouse movement detected, please restart for changes to take effect."

Anyone remember the early Windows 10 update that booted back up with a black screen that said "Don't Panic"?

That was the most panic inducing moment I've ever had with any PC.

I remember reading a post from some person who struggled with hallucinations and was absolutely creeped out when that large, semi-ominous text appeared on their laptop screen out of nowhere lol. Then again, this was on r*ddit, 97% chance they were making it up for upvotes.
- I'm (well, I like to think I'm) a very stable person, and it freaked me right out.

Boss/teacher: Is your project ready to present yet?

switch to gnome; customizations are intentionally buried because a huge majority of users don't go very deep w with them.

I wonder what I’ve said no to more all-time - Microsoft’s spy- and bloatware or the YouTube tv free trial.

Winrar licensing

"Let's check this one off the list." Bitch I only installed you to play The Void. One more peep out of you and you're derezzed.

The Void

Why though? That looks like an XP era game. Does it not work with proton?
- Ran into a game breakinf bug on linux. Maybe they patched it by now, but I doubt it.

Jesus, I don't miss that shit. Now, it has to be something way the hell out in left field to not be picked up and installed silently. linux-firmware ftw

Windoof on my computer got an update last week. I wonder when it's done. /j

(But seriously, it took almost the whole evening.)

they were the worst updates because it guaranteed it was installing some bullshit you didnt want

Candy Crush, Ticktok, Clipcamp, bing AI and what ever else suites there fancy

I admit to being old and out of touch, but why is this meme a sandwich?

The original meme template, to my knowledge, was something along the lines of "People be like "Subway sucks". Bro, you made the sandwich." and then it was tweaked a little, tweaked a little more, tweaked a little more and we ended up with this and even more absurd versions.

A while ago I saw this meme about the exact experience you're having right now. We've come full circle lol.
- This warms my heart! Thanks.
