"Linux is free if you don't value your time" mfs spending their day undoing all of microsoft's telemetry shit after every major windows update
we're about half a release cycle from the crossover point where configuring wine for obscure compatibility problems will be faster and easier than unfucking windows to disable all the telemetry, nagware, and user interface disasters
the only reason i still have a bare metal windows install is for skyrim and vr chat
Mine's for Destiny 2 and it pisses me off every time I reboot
rebooting is for scrubs. i just keep windows contained safely in another laptop
