i'm getting pretty tempted to switch. what's so bad about it again?

THIS DESKTOP RESOLUTION IS NOT OKAY

I used snipping tool on my actual desktop. I couldn't make a thread in vm for some reason

It is proprietary software.

There is so many examples of why this is a bad thing, look for yourself and make up your own mind.

If your employer insist that you use it, use it at work, but why would you want that in your personal life?

there's nothing wrong with proprietary software

shitty windows 10 drivers from nvidia.

Also keep in mind that Microsoft has pushed adware through windows update in old versions of windows and in windows 10 there is no option to not install those updates when they do it again

you're right, you should really switch to Win10, like, right now, do it
>>
You might as well, since you already compromised your system.

Microsoft reads your email and tracks your Internet activity and then sells it.

>>53528007
it's there some way to prevent that?

No.

i'm not a shill. i pirated my copy
>>
>>53527674
I use Win10 in VM either.
Sometimes gt those temptations too, but stay strong man! All i had to do is see firewall traffic to harden my decision not to switch.
>>
>>53528022
im pretty sure there's some sort of program that stops it. i can't remember the name though
>>
>>53528069
To this extend it's only Microsoft because they log all Internet traffic, and read emails even if they're not the provider, which is even worse than Google does.
>>
>>53528111
I'm pretty sure Microsoft would push a forced update to prevent that.
Also, as long as it's proprietary software it stays unreliable guess work.
>>
>>53527674
Nobody gives a shit if you use 10 or not, why don't you try it for a couple of weeks? If you like it, no body gives a shit, if you don't like it revert back to whatever version you are using now, no body will give a shit

If you're running window already, it's not like you'll have a choice.

>>53528129
no need to be so rude. i'm just asking why people dislike it.

>>53528141
i disabled updates, so i won't be forced to switch.
>>
>>53527841
how do i get my computer to look like that?

You saying Microsoft pay people to read every single email of mine, every day, year after year? For what purpose?

i'm thinking about switching too. the main problem I have is that windows 7 home premium has a 16GB ram limit, and I would benefit from 64 gigs.

That's where it belongs. Sandboxed away from the network hardware which should be handled by a more trustworthy OS.

Then why isn't it open? Surely if there's nothing wrong like, say, send sensitive user information, the code would be open. Right, anon?

Install arc theme.

in what world do you need 64gb ram

How about using a non-shit OS that prevents both those things?

>>53528442
to prevent people from stealing their ideas.
there's nothing wrong with a business having it's secrets. do you complain to your grandma because she has a secret recipe?

>>53527866
lol

>>53527841
What de is that

If you use that debloater stuff then it's going to break your Windows install and make shit act all buggy. Maybe once you have everything 100% setup and ready to go it might work but my experience with it was pretty painful and I needed to reinstall the whole OS to fix it. The best option would be not to install it at all though honestly

I'm too comfy to switch back, especially with this delicious font rendering. I've got a W7 vm for special uses anyways.
