How do I opt out of this horseshit?

I used one for a while. Chromebooks have an expiration date on them (fuck Google and the companies that make them, they are bullshit) and they only will last that long. They are also built cheaply and most are barely sufficient to use from new.

I know why districts bought Chromebooks, but it’s the lack of foresight that brought this problem. Nobody thought about what would happen in two/three years, so now they are dealing with the consequences. It’s not like districts can buy used machines which are much better deals, but even cheap Windows laptops which aren’t much more expensive have significantly longer lifespans.

To them it’s all about the money. They don’t give a shit about us, the ignorant moronic cunts. They should be offsetting all carbon emissions they ever created, but instead we have this flimsy corporate bullshit.

I’m considering it. I run laptops, so there’s some concerns about battery life/Dell XPS drivers that I have to reason out.

Ha I see… Microsoft is doing only what it is required to. Otherwise the EU will be up its ass. Everyone else gets nothing.

I use FF as the main on Windows, and the amount of popups I receive about not only the browser — not using OneDrive as well, MS365, etc — makes me want to switch back to a Mac. I do computer repair, and Macs are the worst consistently for it. I have to use OpenCore if I want to run software past an arbitrary ‘limit’ set by Apple because it thinks capable hardware is too old. But apparently having a £150 copy of Win11 pro doesn’t get me no ads and Microsoft continues to think it’s acceptable to annoy a user base into submission.

Not very frightening at all

Only one here it would be for is you. Miracle you entered college being such a dick

Why did it take this long? Fucking finally!
