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
and you think folks like 11? this is going to make 11 look like a trumpy os.
Win 10 here no plan to change that.
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.
Whocaresfully? It’s a new word I invented to describe how I feel about anything a dying company does in the background where it doesn’t affect me at all. Do whatever you want, I will never buy anything from Microsoft.
With such good gaming support on Linux, I have no idea who Windows is for anymore.
Corporate environments and people with two commas in their paychecks telling us to use AI for everything.
$000,000,045,000.00
I’m rich baby
Unless you’re getting one check a year, your paycheck won’t be forty-five grand.
No, I’m talking about the guillotine chow that makes two million a month.
🤮
I use it at work and keep it on one home machine for music software I’ve sunk money into (Ableton Live and various software synths and effects). Everything else has been Linux now for some years.
People who are into a digital dominatrix that makes you do dumb stuff for no benefit.
A site I’ve never never heard of spreading unsubstantiated rumors? Shocked I tell you!
If its fully modular. I would remove the subscription and ai modules please
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
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!
Just back up your important data! Always backup before messing with operating systems or partitioning.
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
I’ll watch this dumpster fire with glee, having switched to bazzite a good while ago.
Lmfao nope. Fuck you, Microslop.
i can avoid Microsoft at home, but not at work 😞, 40hrs a week of sloppiness
39hrs for me

Glad I switched over in 2006!
Is Microsoft trying to release a live-service shooter version of Windows?
Microslop’s Windows 12 reportedly set for release this year as a fully modular, subscription-based, AI-focused OS
That’s what they think.
This has to be a joke. Microsoft can’t be that stupid to actually do that.
It feels like we’re living in an Onion article.
