I'd move gladly but there isn't a good alternative.

I mean seriously fuck mmm icrosoft and the creepy data mining shit but what fucking real alternative is there?

Osx? Not buying Apple's Bullshit hardware to run it. Planned obsolescence.

Linux? Yeah sure when they make 1 forever distro that works as well as Windows I'll be gone in a heartbeat. And I'll pay for it too. But the Linux community is commie idealism and doesn't give a rat's ass about results and worse still since there is no central control and hence nobody to keep the whole thing on track...thus we have thousands of morons moving in different directions half of which hate each other.

And Google has yet to make a single worthwhile desktop OS yet. Chrome is is halfassed garbage and while android COULD be up to tack google insists on keeping it as a phone tablet is ONLY.

So what kind of actual fucking option do I have here? What option do any of us have? Oh yeah that's right bend over and take the microcock whether we like it or not.

Fuck you for even insuating we have a choice.

I've never even used Windows 8.

Torrenting != piracy. I wish that association didn't exist. BitTorrent is a great distribution method unfortunately being defiled by piracy. You can torrent, just make sure you don't infringe copyright law. There are many legal torrent trackers that are completely safe.

Here's how it's gonna go down, whenever an ISP notices your bandwidth being used for an unrecognized/rare protocol, a flag is raised. Same for more obscure websites.

I honestly fail to grasp why this has become such an issue. Windows 10 is the newest version of Windows, therefore it will receive support for the longest time to come. There is no reason to not to upgrade to 10 if you are going to stick with Windows. Microsoft is trying to get people to install the upgrade while its free instead of waiting it out and then paying/pirating the upgrade, which is a good thing.

I mean, if you want to stay with Windows, you might just as well get the latest version of it. If not, then GTFO and proceed with your rants on ubuntu community forums or something, there are plenty of options.

Crying about Microsoft encouraging one to upgrade is just the same as fat people whining about how pro-health organizations are shaming them.

Someone please clarify?

>>55680146
TL;DR Why would someone stick with Windows but not get the updates/upgrades?

>>55672051
You're wrong, NASA uses linux, actually Curiosity and Juno are linux

Windows 10 is a great and free OS for gaming and working. Thanks to telemetry, the user experience is extending every day. People who think telemetry was made for spying are simply paranoid.

I don't care what the intentions for "telemetry" data were do you seriously believe American agencies won't use it for spying?

Windows 10 is a lot better for gamers and power users than 7 or 8 will ever be. It's so much more optimized for performance and newer hardware. If you are still using Windows 7/8 in 2016 when Windows 10 is available for FREE, you should turn in your tinfoil hat and stop being a paranoid luddite.

If you use any 2009 or later Intel CPUs or any 2013 or later AMD CPUs on your Linux machines you are part of a botnet and you are not better than a Windows 10 user. Intel, AMD, and the NSA can all spy on you and remotely execute code. Libreboot does NOT fix this!

Intel and AMD can remotely access your PC, remotely execute code, and remotely access your cryptographic keys. This is 10x worse than what Microsoft can do to Windows 10 users, but 90% of Linux users are still doing it to themselves. Why? Because they have no principles. Linux isn't about security or privacy, it's about feeling superior to Windows users for no reason.

Linux = placebo

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Active_Management_Technology

http://www.amd.com/en-us/innovations/software-technologies/security

It's time to install Windows 10 since you don't actually care about being part of a botnet.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

But running games with Wine is especially good for older titles? Often times it actually performs better than newer windows, like Fallout3 for example. Its mainly the new DX11 games that lack support, though that too is on its way.
