Once again Microsoft, I do not want this.
Yup, I finally may be trying out some Linux versions soon to find one to switch to… I have always been whatever about what Microsoft does, and it’s always been simple enough to fight back and stop whatever crap I never wanted. This announcement just feels like there’s no way it will stop, and it’s becoming way more frequent. I hate AI, and im tired of it being shoved in my face or running my services.
I find it funny to see all the stuff they try to add or do and really wonder if they came out with windows 12 in 2 flavors, 1 being a continuation of what it is now, and 2nd being a completely stripped down version that offers nothing but the OS with nothing else in the background running or spying and no apps built in which one would sell more. The funny thing is they would probably charge you way more for the stripped-down version, and it would still probably sell more.
Highly recommend Linux Mint. It’s the most beginner friendly, smooths things over, has a great app store, and will make you feel mostly at home.
Cool, how do I uninstall it day one?
WinDiv needs to have its top product managers fired and taken over by DevDiv
There’s so many reasons this is a dumb, bad idea, but locally running models doesn’t even build confidence that they won’t exfiltrate the queries and other privacy invading telemetry. Just wait until you’re online next.
