I’m pretty sure it’s less than 10, and I just recently set up a Windows machine.

How TF did that take three days?

How I want a windows install is “working, with no BS”.

It comes out the box working, all I needed to do was disable Onedrive on boot. I haven’t even bothered to change the background, and probably won’t.

I think they eased up on that, I just didn’t log in for quite a while because it was all recommendations for meme pages.

Lemmy really struggles with satire, this was always going to be an uphill battle.

There’s also a number of things you have to click “no” on, like a free trial office or Onedrive.

It took me around an hour to set up my new Win 11 laptop, most of which was downloading and installing updates. I expected far worse.

I think creatives on Facebook overestimate their value to an extent, I use Facebook to see what my friends and family are doing, and because the sports I do are mostly arranged through Facebook pages.

The webcomics etc I follow are cool, but if they stopped posting I wouldn’t really miss them all that much.

I’ve heard it compared to the scene in Toy Story where they’re trying to find the right Buzz Lightyear amongst all the identical clones.

Oh boy, cosplayers and DnD players got the shaft with that one.

Also just making their employees more productive.

There’s a very good reasons why people and organisations will pay for proprietary software when there is a free alternative available. I’ve used FOSS word processors before, for example, and they’re okay, but nothing like what Microsoft Office can do. Same with video editing.

My understanding is these are juvenile fish that will be caught as adults, so they will live for a while.

Yup, there it is.

What percentage of people who join platforms like Twitter or Bluesky actually post anything though?

60 mil between them, apparently.

Doesn’t take brain damage for that to sound like a good deal.

Musk has previously described himself as an “alpha male”, it will annoy him for sure.

I thought she had a child.

The clown at least pretends to care about the working class, that’s why.

The man managed to get offside with an entire town, his neighbours, his church, the council, the local paper. He was also dumping raw sewerage into a waterway, reneged on agreements to buy his workshop, and just in general sounds like a peach of a guy to be around.

I get that Killdozer has become a meme, but everything I’ve heard about Heymeer shows he was the cause of most of his problems in life.
