- Windows Ten has an Operating System that if you leave it idle for too long will freeze up the screen on computers that have ran WIndows Seven. That is not all, but it forces you to update them whether you want to or not. Go Autoupdate. :
- Sadly that is not the worst part of the Windows Ten experience. No, the worst part I experienced today. I am out ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SOME DOLLARS because of the Forced Update that required a Factory Reset that in turn deleted critical files.
- All in all? I'm about ready to throttle the designers of Windows 10, the programmers and WHOEVER gave them the idea to make updates automatically happen like that!!!!
:picard: :rage:
Words cannot summarize how angry I am with Microsoft right now, though this one should suffice.
GRAAGH YOU COMPUTER PROGRAMMING IDIOTS. GET IT RIGHT FOR A CHANGE!!!!
I've practically jerry-rigged my laptopt to dual boot with Windows 10 and Xubuntu, currently working on getting Sourcemage installed so I can triboot.
Gonna help Somerled/Okuu do the same.
Can't wait to take the GNU/Linux redpill, thanks /g/.
So stab the registry until there's no updates coming. You can turn them off with a bit of wizardry.
As for the "GNU/Linux redpill", that sounds exactly as cringey as it just..does.
Being an admin myself, I deal with Linux a plenty, so it just sounds eh...silly. Anyway.
I still cba to use Unix in general in my home computer, simply because the gaming performance of Unix still falls too low for my desires, and dual booting takes too much effort to "Oh hey I want to play a game - let me reboot...!".
Of course, with hosting a baremetal hypervisor and running the game on an OS based on that, the performance has actually become pretty decent even on Unix gaming, but it still falls behind Windows.
So it's just a waiting game with Vulkan until the OS's becomes actually equal or better in gaming scenarios.
There's also the fact that plenty of software just doesn't have Unix support, so you'd have to run them in Wine. Bleh. Bothersome.
Dualbooting is nice as an idea, until the clunkiness of it becomes apparent, especially with the fun fact that Microsoft and their updates are painfully well known to just break dualboot setups (especially Unix-sidebooting ones) with updates.
I'd need a second easily accessible computer - a laptop or the like, so that I could easily swap in seconds without rebooting or other hassle between Windows & Linux for it to be a functional home setup for me.
Rant: COME ON UNIX BASED OS'S, GET YOUR GAMING SIDE SHIT TOGETHER ALREADY. I WANT TO USE ANY OF THEM FROM LFS TO GENTOO AND ARCH, JUST MAKE IT ACTUALLY WORTH MY TIME TO USE THEM FFS.
