Windows 12

Windows 12: Paintbrush now comes with ads to Microsoft's subscription AI Paintbrush service. Also bucket fill is now a $0.49 DLC.

Remember when Microsoft said Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows?

Don't let your guard down. Maybe this time they'll fully pull the TPM/UEFI trigger and make it impossible to install any other OS on new PCs... they have lots of leverage over manufacturers to tighten the screws on the BIOS and boot process.

Win 12 is obligated to be good due to the "every other version of Windows" rule, which has been true forever.

Okay I'm not very technical but I hate Microsoft with every fiber of my being and want desperately to break from them but can't bring myself to switch my regular and gaming PCs to Linux. It just feels like too much work like I'd be starting over and most of all I just fear change. Is there a good YT series/channel or blog or something I can check out that might make things a little less intimidating?

Kindof proud to say I never installed anything after Windows 10, including that.

Windows 12 dev employee: what if ... what if... We break the taskbar into bits.

Wait wait wait.... I think we can uh... maybe just maybe not add bloat... Turns around to see the employer.... Gulp

Turns back to screen... Adding bloat is always the answer... Right boss?

Probably only supports chromium browsers, such as the only browser you'll ever need Microsoft Explorer Edge™

Used Ubuntu for a year and while initially it was nice, I got tired of having to spend two weeks learning which magic spells to chant at my computer every time I wanted to install a given application.

I'd use Mac again, except that it tries to punish you every time you go outside the Apple box. For me, Windows is the right balance of ease of use, scaling degrees of complexity, and ability to boldly go where I have no damn business going.

Your experience may vary, and that's good, because you shouldn't have to like what I like, and vice versa.

I have no idea what Windows 11 contains...

Ugh, 12 is announced already? Seems like we just got 11!

10's my last one. I'll be going on a linux journey here soon enough - maybe keep a dual boot of 10 on a separate SSD for the games I absolutely can't get to work in linux, but they can keep their Windows 11/12.

Homer should be labeled "Red Hat" in this day and age.

It might be a problem to many of us if they do something stupid to GitHub...

Microsoft stinks, I use Windows because I'm lazy. MAC is so much worse though, why have I never heard a Linux user criticize MAC?

Since switching to Linux in 2007, I have touched Windows only when paid to do so. Each successive move by Microsoft has affirmed for me that I made the correct decision. At this point, I would just not use a computer at home if my only way to do so was with Windows on it.

Ever hear of Secure Time Seeding? It’s real, and fits this meme perfectly.

Remember when they said 10 is gonna be the last version?

I'm so excited

Windows 11 is my favorite Windows release ever. They finally focused their efforts on modern, forward thinking design.

Fight me.

I love this because it means Windows users are even dumber than Homer.
