I thought I was safe from this if I installed windows on a completely separate harddrive... I clearly overestimated Microsoft's ability to make on operating system that does not act like literal malware. Oh well! I guess I'm 100% linux now.

Not having to ever touch Windows again has made my life infinitely better. I can handle setting it up for a buddy on their new PC I'll build. Getting to build a new PC is worth it. These fools don't even realize how much I enjoy building their PCs. They don't even charge me for it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
