wow… OS Subcription-Based with AI?
you’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy
I’m glad I already moved to Linux for 2 years
Thankfully this appears to be wrong.
This is good to know. I’m gonna pretend it’s true anyways as personal fuel to guarantee I move off of Windows on my next machine. Nothing makes my brain revolt faster than forced subscriptions.
If its fully modular. I would remove the subscription and ai modules please…and the Microsoft module…
it’s “fully modular” as in you can remove notepad (but not ms edge)
Insert “so that was a fucking lie.webp”
i was being cheeky, making fun of how they do it in 10 and 11. i don’t know what modular actually means here.
Oh for sure I was too. But microslop is all lies
A site I’ve never never heard of spreading unsubstantiated rumors? Shocked I tell you!
Nope. Not paying a subscription for an OS. My next PC is officially going to be Linux!
Only reason I haven’t yet is I’m lazy and not in the mood to make the huge leap. I can and will mess up the simplest instructions, so I’ll be trying to fix my own screw up for a week, whatever I mess up.
Subscription is too far though. Bye, Windows!
To be honest, install is easy, and if you just go with flat packs and app images you probably won’t have to mess with much. Sure you could be crazy and use Arch if you wanna tinker with everything, but mint, bazzite, and others are pretty stable and simple. Just a small amount of “which suits my needs/wants best” before you install.
But now is not a great time to try and build a computer so… womp
Just back up your important data! Always backup before messing with operating systems or partitioning.
i can avoid Microsoft at home, but not at work 😞, 40hrs a week of sloppiness
39hrs for me
Microslop’s Windows 12 reportedly set for release this year as a fully modular, subscription-based, AI-focused OS
That’s what they think.
I’ll watch this dumpster fire with glee, having switched to bazzite a good while ago.
Microslop Broken Window 12, is going to be a disaster and I hope it hurts Microslop!
Glad I switched over in 2006!
Lmfao nope. Fuck you, Microslop.
Is Microsoft trying to release a live-service shooter version of Windows?
Absolutely not. Linux is a better OS anyway.
Win 10 here no plan to change that.
