In my view, this is unacceptable...

They changed my background (previously there was a default blue window), placed an icon in the bottom corner of the screen that read "Learn more about this photo", and re-added the search bar that I had previously removed.

Fortunately, I don't have to deal with this on a daily basis.

Is this via a VM on a Mac?

This is why you should not trust them regarding Recall. They will not let it go. It will be forced on you eventually.

Your computer? You mean Microsoft's bitch box?

Face it, they can do whatever they want with your computer and you're powerless to stop them. They've also been looking through your photos and adding them to their AI model.

Not my computer. They can't do shit if it's not installed.

at this rate the only good versions of windows that are supported are windows 10 LTSC and IoT editions since these are versions of windows used by most corporations schools and goverments thus they need to only get security updates

your background? Since when is this Windows computer your computer? Microsoft has been very clear that we no longer own our computers if we choose to use Windows.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

It's Microsoft Windows' computer. Must've missed that little apostrophe.

Get used to it. It is not your machine, its Microsofts.

My windows vm runs Cairo shell as the desktop and I've replaced the file manager with Dolphin and the command prompt with Konsole and notepad with Kate and it almost feels like a usable operating system

I hate that goddamn searchbar

[–] [email protected] 31 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Tell me about it. Useless. The whole start menu is fucked honestly. Can’t ever find anything you’re looking for. WHY THE FUCK WOULD I WANT BING WEB SEARCH RESULTS HERE!?!?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago

Just booted? Better wait 45 seconds and many failed searches, because DNS isn't resolving.
Doesn't matter that you are trying to launch a local program, it absolutely must delay the user experience until it can successfully resolve a DNS query.
Disgusting

Time to switch to Windows 11 as Microsoft is going to make your experience as bad as possible

If you need Windows I would create Samba AD DC and then join the machine to the domain. From there you can configure it with group policy

Hey, got a link to the wallpaper for your main OS? Not the windows one, the red and black one we see part of in the image. Thanks!

The colors make me think it's one of the Ubuntu default wallpapers.
