Stick with it just stop pretending to be experts, telling others Windows 10 sucks (quantify that) and encouraging NOVICES who would benefit from architecture improvements to stay away from it because YOU don't like it.
Windows 10 fails to run quite a bit of legacy software developed for windows platform that functions just fine on windows 7 and earlier, this includes some very simple software using nothing but windows libraries.
Windows 10 fails to routinely respect user choice in things like allowed update install and reboot times.
On windows 10 the user is not in control of the machine even if logged in as administrator.
If you look on Nvidia forums theres a +100 page complaint thread about performance issues appearing over 2017 windows updates and smaller thread on microsofts own forums where their employees have been regularly responding and requesting additional telemetry on the issue after each patch..
No similiar complaints about windows 7 despite 7 being still more popular and I guess running with older hardware on average as well..
As a matter of fact I have hard time figuring any advantages windows 10 has over 7 except the "get help"-program that actually connects you to a microsoft employee, an actual person, at any hour of the day by a hit of a button, which I guess does make it more user friendly for tech-illiterates by leaps and bounds
Folks, your CPUs 2015 and older are obsolete... how convenient for Wintel.. get that fancy new CPU and another copy of Windows 10, because what you have today is OEM version, so with a new CPU you'll need a new Windows copy.
I am on windows 7 using a 2011 made i5-2500K and after upgrading GPU and switching to SSD the machines performance is still good enough to run things like PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds on Ultra setting(GTA 5 is a bit choppy on ultra but runs buttery smooth on high).. And I haven't even overclocked the CPU yet.
I am yet to install the patches, but if the performance degrades beyond tolerable I'll first crank the OC to max, maybe try to find a deal on a faster socket 1155 processor as there are couple..
But if I have end up having to upgrade motherboard and memory because of these shenanigans then I will 100% buy my next CPU from someone else than Intel.
Sweden. I'm quite impressed by their openness about government documents, and the very modest size and power of their government. They do have extensive social services, but they're very open and public about their public servants and policies.
You sound like someone who hasn't been or even know anyone whos been in a conflict with authorities.
The cake is a lie.
We're talking about literal Nazis, promoting literal ethnic cleansing using literal swastikas.
Nazis are dead, the party is banned in the country which is tied to the name. Only ones doing this with obsoleted german flags are FBI agent provocateurs looking for chumps to jail and trolls who won't carry any action into real world.
that was a case of mistaken identity, so your interpretation of a valid citation is crap
Oh, so violence isn't violence when its done to a random passerby who didn't support the imaginary political alignment(german nationalist socialist party is extinct) of your choosing???
Why would Microsoft bother with Defender to do this when they already own your whole computer with Windows?
Defender is the perfect cover for something that scans your shit and sends hashes of found files to some outside entity because that what it literally does in the first place.
I wouldn't be surprised if AV made in the USA does the same, just sending copies to a different three letter agency.
Windows 10 Defender absolutely does this. The description however promises that if the file is a "personal document" it asks for your permission first.. Upon asked what count as personal document microsoft has anwsered it means a file created with "default windows 10 apps".
In the US if you refuse to sabotage your product the worst they can do is maybe find out you cheated on your taxes and/or publicly shame you somehow.
Nope, your business gets destroyed by the government if you refuse. See: Lavabit
In Russia you fall down elevator shaft, after shooting self in back of head 4 times.
Where as in US you can get shot by government in clear daylight with everything caught on video and murderers escape all punishment.. Apples and oranges.
Do you really actually think that anyone cares about anything you do? Youâ(TM)re just a standard run of the mill worker drone with absolutely nothing interesting about you that would make any agency three letter or otherwise want to waste any resources looking at you.
Are you literally retarded or do you work for the government? - Not that theres a much of a difference:)
Why don't you start with banning land mines first?
You can't order a bunch of land mines to clear the streets of starving, rioting serfs. Yet..
But a solar powered terminator won't bat an eye when you tell it to commit war crimes on your behalf.
What an amazing world we live in, that a state of the art device featuring communication radios, cameras, a display, and phonomenal processing power is available for the same price as a chunk of metal.
Yet the the people who make these things need suicide nets around the buildings because.. reasons?
I love the modern idea that works of fiction, specifically written to advance a particular point of view, are somehow indicative of how reality works. It's a movie, it's entertainment.
Yeah, in reality the AI wouldn't be a rogue one but being a good little german and following the orders to the letter when it exterminates the starving rioting unemployed serfs.
Indeed, I'd personally be more worried about how they solve a problem of the people in power being capable of simply ordering the robots to kill everyone and robots not going rogue and following instructions to the letter.

But the real reason is the prison telephone company monopoly. That's a gravy train they do not want stopped.
Why do they do it in countries without prison telephone monopolies?

We stole this country from the people that lived here.
"Native Americans" were not the original population of americas and they genocided the previous occupants.
Yeah, it's not like Nazi's would drive a car in to a crowd of people or shout racial slurs while firing a gun at someone in a crowd or anything...
Yeah, all that stuff must have been "fake news", right?
Prove he had a GERMAN NATIONALIST SOCIALIST PARTY card/membership, I fucking dare you!

It's simple: You wave the Nazi flag, you're a Nazi. There's no need to over-think this.
No, if you wave a _nazi_ flag you're FBI agent provocateur
that was a case of mistaken identity, so your interpretation of a valid citation is crap

Even more reason to disable Javascript.
Right, but what can I do to fix windows 10? According to the article it could be mining bitcoin for someone else too.
In other words, most are behaving like malware, intruding on users' computers and using resources without permission. [...]

In 1984 Airstrip One (UK) is controlled by the same political entity that controls north and south americas too..
Would rate parent up but don't have any points..

How about "yet another tracking device"?
Why don't you start with banning land mines first?

As far as I am aware my computer or phone don't contain any components made by foxconn

I think the real joke here is that for a price of one of their phones you could instead have 2 kilos of pure silver.
What "world"? Out of 15 extensions I have enabled 14 are currently are showing [LEGACY] flag on the options page.
Looks to me like firefox is about to die.
