So at this point you have 2 choices

1.
>Install spyware and get to play more games
2.
>Avoid spyware, but don't get to play a lot of games

What do?

you should follow the news more closely.

Tons of people also have had problems with the forced installation MS is pushing on older Windows systems. Like some users have literally gone grab a snack, come back to see W10 installing, shit failing, and thus their systems were bricked.

Congratulations! You're already being spied on more than Windows 10 ever will just by answering yes to one of those questions.

If you answered no to all of those questions somehow, then you have no reason to update to Windows 10.

I can say no to two of those, and I could run a non-Google centric OS on my phone if I desire.

However the difference between Google and W10 is the fact that one's completely optional search engine that also happens to collect data, while the other's the latest big version of the most used mainstream PC OS, which means it will somewhat dictate what and how you can do things in the future.

Google won't remove your files and programs on machines you're utilizing, and won't brick your system by forcing updates not only to their software, but the machines hardware. Both which W10 does.

I'm gonna make a friendly warning here:

If you have an internet connection with monthly data caps, W10 will sap it all in no time, and potentially empty your wallet too.

Also, don't even dream of using most of your WinXP/Vista era hardware on 10. My fucking Wacom tablet literally did not work on tenner, meaning I had to downgrade back to older Windows to get my work done.

Honestly, you should use Windows on your desktop for games but do your best to remove any and all bloatware, and disable all sorts of telemtery on windows. There are guides out there to help.

Then run a linux distro on a laptop for everything else e.g. chans, music, etc

If you actually think they haven't sold all your personal information already I have bad new for you. That said W10 is still cancer, speaking from first hand experience. But it runs well, looks nice and honestly I just stopped caring. And you'll probably be able to pirate the games and run them on Win7 anyway which is objectively better then using the Windows Store.

2. Is getting it going to prevent me from being able to play games I used to be able to play but may also want to at some point?

If no, then I'll get it.
If yes, then I'll find a way to get it without it preventing me to play the previous games.

You mean the modern era where you have to get naked or irradiated to enter an airplane? Where you're spied 24/7 by your Government? Legally and illegally?
And despite all the freedome you gave up, a single man can easily kill over 60 people in a bar?

Damn, he seems to be completely wrong. You're right anon. Giving that freedom away completely saved those poor people killed a day ago. Imagine what the shooter would have done if you didn't give up all your freedom.

You Muricunts gave up more freedom in the past 16 years than during the rest of your short history, yet your security situation is only getting worse.
>>
>>341064006
if you use a smart device you are already giving away all the same info as w10 is using, so it's a dumb argument against it.

The amount of collected information, even with strict privacy settings, is quite alarming.

Information transmitted:

All text typed on the keyboard is stored in temporary files, and sent (once per 30 mins) to:
oca.telemetry.microsoft.com.nsatc.net
pre.footprintpredict.com
reports.wes.df.telemetry.microsoft.com

There isn't a clear purpose for this, considering there there's no autocorrect/prediction anywhere in the OS (There is autocorrect in certain text fields, but the supposed purpose for transmitting these keystrokes is to improve autocorrect across devices. Whether a full keylog is necessary for this (as opposed to just corrections) is questionable. Furthermore, this appears to still occur even if the user is not signed in to a Microsoft account, eliminating the "across devices" benefit. Perhaps there is a global autocorrect dictionary that benefits all users, but the privacy implications of an un-disableable always-on keylogger outweigh these potential benefits.). The implications of this are significant: because this is an OS-level keylogger, all the data you're trying to transmit securely is now sitting on some MS server. This includes passwords and encrypted chats. This also includes the on-screen keyboard, so there is no way to authenticate to a website without MS also getting your password.

Telemetry is sent once per 5 minutes, to:
vortex.data.microsoft.com
vortex-win.data.microsoft.com
telecommand.telemetry.microsoft.com
telecommand.telemetry.microsoft.com.nsatc.net
oca.telemetry.microsoft.com

You might think that "telemetry" has to do with OS usage or similar... turns out it's telemetry about the user. For example, typing a phone number anywhere into the Edge browser transmits it to the servers above. In another example, typing the name of any popular movie into your local file search starts a telemetry process that indexes all media files on your computer and transmits them to:
df.telemetry.microsoft.com
reports.wes.df.telemetry.microsoft.com
cs1.wpc.v0cdn.net
vortex-sandbox.data.microsoft.com
pre.footprintpredict.com
It's hard to imagine any purpose for this other than the obvious piracy crackdown possiblities.

When a webcam is first enabled, ~35mb of data gets immediately transmitted to:
oca.telemetry.microsoft.com
oca.telemetry.microsoft.com.nsatc.net
vortex-sandbox.data.microsoft.com
i1.services.social.microsoft.com
i1.services.social.microsoft.com.nsatc.net

Everything that is said into an enabled microphone is immediately transmitted to:
oca.telemetry.microsoft.com
oca.telemetry.microsoft.com.nsatc.net
vortex-sandbox.data.microsoft.com
pre.footprintpredict.com
i1.services.social.microsoft.com
i1.services.social.microsoft.com.nsatc.net
telemetry.appex.bing.net
telemetry.urs.microsoft.com
cs1.wpc.v0cdn.net
statsfe1.ws.microsoft.com

If this weren't bad enough, this behaviour still occurs after Cortana is fully disabled/uninstalled. It's speculated that the purpose of this function to build up a massive voice database, then tie those voices to identities, and eventually be able to identify anyone simply by picking up their voice, whether it be a microphone in a public place or a wiretap on a payphone.

Interestingly, if Cortana is enabled, the voice is first transcribed to text, then the transcription is sent to:
pre.footprintpredict.com
reports.wes.df.telemetry.microsoft.com

I did the third one already, now doing the first one and really hope the second one happens. This kind of wrapper should be less problems than OpenGL->D3D9, at least, and Wine did manage to create the latter one, eventually.

now the tricky part:
windows telemetry IPs are constantly changing and MS will just keep introducing "security updates" it will be your job to find and maintain a list of IPs and block them at the router level; no third party software blocks telemetry no matter how many cool graphs and warm blanket messages it shows you. You have to disable access outside of the OS level.

That's what I'm doing, and then my OS doesn't get tainted, and I get an overall superior experience playing my console games instead of having to hope that Microsoft's porting to Windows somehow works.

If you use Linux and have VT-d/AMD-vi feature for your CPU and two GPUs, then you can make a Windows virtual machine that plays games at 95-98% performance.
Virtual machine is basically being able to load a OS while you're still inside another OS (i.e., no need to reboot and both the main system and the game system at your fingertips at once). It also has no bugs unlike Wine.
The 95-98% performance part needs some advanced setup, though. Look up "GPU passthrough", if you're interested.

Starting an OS while the other one is still running is virtual machines. It's a program that literally simulates the workings your hardware, and runs another OS on it. Servers have been using it for decades, home users too.
Now, historically, loading a VM caused massive slowdowns, because, in particular simulating GPU and CPU is kinda hard. Sure, the other hardware might be problematic at times, but it isn't nearly as bad as CPUs and GPUs, since these are the ones that need to be quick, and simulating basically means you have to ask host OS for permission every time you want to do anything with them.
Until not long ago, specific technologies were included in CPU that allow you to: a) just pass through instructions to your real CPU if you're simulating the same on as your real one; b) take one of your GPUs, disconnect it from the host OS, and just directly connect it to the guest OS for no latency (also possible with other hardware, technically). With Intel they are called VT-x and VT-d, VT-d implies having VT-x, not sure about what AMD calls them.
95-98% performance VMs literally is just a VM that uses these new capabilities, and so most of the natural slowdown disappears. Virtual machines become usable for even resource-intensive gaming. Technically it's even more secure that way.

The saddest thing about it is that what DX12 puts on the table technically is genuinely a big deal, with potential for massively quicker rendering.
Then again, Vulkan does pretty much the same, it works on every major Windows/Linux OS (except OS X who felt like being special little snowflakes and made Metal, but there's already a working wrapper into their rendering system, anyway, so Vulkan might as well be working for them) and it's backed by pretty much every major player in the industry. It's the first time they agreed on anything in years, honestly.
I just hope that Microsoft somehow doesn't manage to beat that on pure userbase, developer pay-offs and customer inertia. If it does, it will be really sad.
Then again, DX12->Vulkan wrapper might still be possible.

It isn't with the new security updates, I heard. I think they backported the telemetry staff into 7 and 8.1?
Then again, these updates can be turned off, at least. With 10 all bets are off, just hope they didn't hide telemetry just one layer lower than you can see.
I mean they can only control the entirety of your machine and put whatever the hell they want into the kernel, what could a mutli-billion corporation possibly do with that if they just want some of your information?

Still a valid concern. There's a difference between disjointed information you just can't hide getting to interested parties through second sources, and your OS just dumping everything you do through your own connection.

I've no joke been contemplating getting a 2nd PC.
Just throw down $199 on a RX480 and all the other shit, perhaps a cheap SSD or just yank the one I have out of my existing compy and can just switch where my monitor allocates video.
I refuse to use Windon't 10.
I've used it on friends and families computers and it is an abomination.
Part of me believes it only exists so when Windows 11 comes out people will actually pay for it because why would you pay for a new OS if the new one isn't actually better.
Forced obsolescence is the only excuse for making an OS that shitty.
With this years EKS BAWKS JUAN ESS it is clear they are trying as hard as they can to be Apple.
If I wanted to be a mac fag I'd be a mac fag.

Skyrim could install on 7, Vista and XP.
You're trying to tell me they can't manage to make games run on 7 or even 8?
That is complete horseshit.
Only 10 will run new games, an OS called such because they can't even count?
Fuck, it even explains the Xbox One.

>Windows 11

hahahhah anon, windows 10 is designed to be the last OS

And it can be, because of it's constant updates and it's completely mold-able.

Enjoy :^)

It will go great with one of those NEVER OBSOLETE computers.
Maybe I'll pimp it out with a string of miniture shelby bulbs.

You can turn off some of the telemetry stuff (most reports use the "insider" test builds, which of course means it'll be sending lots of data), then live in fear that one day Microsoft will report you to the feds for browsing sad panda.
Or just hope that Vulkan catches on and stick with whatever old version of Windows that supports.

The retards who can't adapt to it are beyond help. It's clunky and ugly, but who gives a shit I use it to browse the web and launch Steam and it does that well enough.

i only notice the shitty ui when i have to go into the w10 specific settings menu. otherwise you can make the start menu and explorer just like 7 and uninstall the majority of appstore shit.

Damn that stuff is scary. This said, I've disabled all of this via Windows' own menus. Privacy settings. Some of those options have been updated, likely due to controversy.
