Last time I saw a software related BSOD on my personal device was.... 10 years ago.

Hardware, obviously, happens, but that's not Windows at fault.

The longest time I had to wait for an update to finish was 20 minutes - since around Windows 10 dropped.

Seriously, it's like you guys still think Windows is what Windows ME used to be...

Yeah, everyone is an idiot but you, congratulations. We're all making shit up, our computers crash because we're noobs. Thank you for your contribution.

Pro-tip: clean install Windows, don't use any "debloaters", just uninstall the software you don't want, and leave it like that.

You'll enjoy a long and happy OS life.

Pro-tip: don't install Windows, don't use any "debloaters", just install Linux Mint

That's a good tip too.

Although people really demonise Windows much more than it deserves (these days).

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
