That was before windows start using React for a start menu.

Congrats on opening yourself up to countless vulenerabilities
I am aware, but I think I rather stick with an unsafe system than a spying but 'secure' system. New Ameliorated versions accounted that and you can update whenever you like. I just haven't gone through the trouble of a fresh install..

Had to change the access policy for the windows update file so windows would stop trying to download 11 on my last windows box. Every now and then it still tries to update and shits itself because it's not allowed.
Why not just turn off TPM in the BIOS?

I have never, not once, had this not just immediately begin updating anyway.

My TPM is off, it still bugs me about updating to windows 11. Thats okay I've been dual booting bazzite and really only use windows for a couple of games that I havent figured out how to get running yet

It might have made the check for eligibility before you managed to turn it off. I guess relying on Bazzite is the correct option.

There's different levels:
- Shutdown at UEFI splash
- Long press power button
- Unplug PC
- Turn off PSU
- Turn off extension cord
- Turn off room's breaker
- Turn off main breaker
- Cut off the power lines
- Shutdown the power plant
- Declare war on any community using electricity
- Declare war on thunder clouds
- Destroy everything with electrons (total annihilation of the world)

At least Windows fucking tells you before you hit the restart button. The other day at work I went to reboot a users MacBook and was hit with a surprise 30 minute update.
Goes without saying "something something Linux superiority"

You can restart without updating, it’s literally a menu option.
Non-problem solved.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I got a big full screen thing saying I can install Windows 11 last night and I'm like "did TPM get turned on automatically or is that no longer a requirement for 11? Because no." I have that shit disabled in my mobo specifically so it doesn't automatically update to 11.

Extra fun on a laptop.
Listen honey, you're going in a bag for three hours, immediately fucking now. You can either turn off nicely or get smothered by the power button.

The clicking means it's working!

Windows users: Windows work just fine, nobody asked you!
And then proceed to make another dozen of memes with problems even more annoying than this.
The only people making memes about a fuckin' operating system are Linux nerds
I can guarantee that.

Influx of Linux users.
OH yes, do I have a wall-of-text for you. Lazypasting a relevant comment I made regarding the UI direction windows has taken for the past decade and a half:
Example, if I want to change the thingamajig-ratio of the skoodleblurp, utilizing the brumblebork method:
- Linux: skoodle -s thinga 50 (brumblebork is assumed by default unless something else is explicitly defined via --method=)
- msdos 6.0: skoodleb /thing 50 /brumblebork
- win 3.x and win95: can't do that natively, but the msdos method still works for some reason.
- WinME: Nobody knows how it's done, or even if it's possible. Anyone who wants to adjust this is smart enough to avoid WinME
- win2k: after right clicking my computer and selecting properties, it's a setting hidden somewhere in the hardware tab, provided you're running the latest SP.
- win98: same as win2k, except a reboot is required afterwards
- XP: same as win2k, except a defrag is required afterwards. Also, Teletubbies color schema.
- win vista: back to rebooting. The change may not have been applied. It will not tell you either way.
- win 7: finally they made it functional and easily accessible via the control panel
- win 8: uh oh, the control panel of ye olden days is no more. We have a new thing going, so there are two way of doing it. The newer method isn't quite as flexible as the old control panel, though; you need to regedit for proper brumblebork.
- win 8.1: They fixed the new panel, but you can't fit it on a single screen due to excessive dead space padding. And sometimes you get told to contact the sysadmin. For your computer. That you own.
- Win 10: It fits on one screen now, you just have a million sub-menus to navigate through; control panel -> network -> advanced -> skoodleblurp -> advanced -> thingamajig -> advanced (yep, again) -> ratio slider -> apply -> OK -> submit -> execute -> "are you sure?" -> (three minutes of that nondes ript spinning circle that replaced the hour glass) -> Fuck you, you forgot to check the brumblebork box half an hour ago. At this point it's easier to get WSL up and running and then run
skoodle -s thinga 50 --method=brumblebork (method not implied. WSL isn't that good) - Win 11: you have to log in to support.microsoft.com with your Microsoft account, using edge, and hope it has detected that you are running an OS that supports this. Then you can download a service patch that may or may not be relevant. Either way it changes your default search to fucking Bing.
Just reading this made me so angry
