It’s almost like the good ol’ days of install fests and the like! ‘End of 10’ is an organization that’s making it easy for Windows 10 users with computers that can’t upgrade to Windows 11, to install Linux instead of sending good hardware to the landfill.

Part of me still does not think Microsoft is going to go through with it. There are too many Windows 10 PCs that will just become infected.

Part of me thinks the government will intervene as I think it could genuinely be a security issue to have so many unsecured devices in the wild.

But, another part of me has no hope for the future.

Sooo... I guess we will just have to wait and see.

No lie. We play this game every 7 years or so. I was training on a Win10 machine at work yesterday. Think they're updating that? Nah. Hell, it probably could take an 11 upgrade and they haven't bothered. Why? It's a locked down machine. And if IT don't care, home users certainly won't.
