“I have deemed my own work to be ‘great’ and that’s the only professional feedback I take”
This is partly to do with the start menu trying to act like a search engine. Its frustrating when you are looking for a document or application and it searches the web.
Microsoft why can we not turn this off!
ive had to learn never to use the ‘more info’ or ‘search’ options at all, as it defaults to a web search now instead of what im used to, a hdd search for my file or internal windows help documentation. fuggen
! something something you are the product smh my head
I remember searching “control panel” and it brings up a brazilian cafe
It’s simple, really.
If the first results are a web search, you wouldn’t notice how terrible the local search indexing is.
I legitimately cannot believe how comically powerful medium level hardware has become yet the windows user experience is so much shittier than it was almost 20 years ago. I remember school machines struggling less to power up on 1gb ram and a one core machine that my gaming rig does sometimes. Windows is such a fucking waste of computing power.
Windows is basically malware now. My wife is forced to use W11 for work and she fucking hates it with a passion (and that’s the pared down IT version).
I pulled out my old gaming laptop that had been unplugged for quite a while and found it somehow updated itself to W11. I immediately wiped the computer and installed Nobara as the main OS. No regrets, no issues, and no half-assed bullshit.
Windows on the ASUS ROG Ally is absolute dog shit. It would constantly reboot to install unwanted updates that offered zero value on a handheld (let alone anything).
Nothing I own will ever run Windows.
Windows isn’t popular. It’s forced onto tons of prebuilt computers and most people wouldn’t know what to use instead. Fuck Windows. Rant over.
If someone can please make Autodesk stuff install and run under Wine, not saying Autodesk to deploy their stuff natively for Linux, I’d be gone with the blink of an eye. And I bet a lot of professionals too.
