    To be clear, I’m not ‘not adopting’ - I’m actively boycotting that shit. The whole TOM thing was annoying enough, but everything else surrounding it has proven to me that Microsoft cannot be trusted with that level of access to MY hardware.

    So yeah, I’m going to put Linux on my PC and ultimately back to Mac full time, I imagine.

      I really need to upgrade my setup, but I don’t really feel like selling one of my kidneys so I can afford 8 gigabytes of RAM (it’s not a good kidney so I’m being realistic).

      Anyway my current system has windows 11 on it anyway so I might as well just keep using that but as soon as I have the option to leave I’m going to.

      I need to keep windows 11 around for work but as soon as I can build a system that can hold to two whole operating systems at a time I’m going to go over to dual booting. Unless the steam machine turns out to be cheaper than anyone’s realistically expecting, in which case I might just go that route. The current RAM prices mean that’s probably unlikely.
