It is very useful, just only in very few circumstances. 99% of what people are shoving it into, it has no place being there, but there are some things that it legitimately just does better.

What did pewdiepie do? Not defending him, I dont follow him at all, and I am just wondering.

Windows Defender is actually quite good these days. The main reason an enterprise would use a 3rd party AV/Firewall would be centralized management of said av and firewall. If IT needs to install apps and make them work, they also need the ability to manage the AV/Firewall.

How is aluminum non-conductive? It's literally used as a lighter and cheaper alternative to copper in wires

In your case, an adapter wouldn't really be possible. The other way around maybe would have been, but adapting Sata to pcie just isn't possible. Your best bet would be to return that ssd and buy a sata m.2 one.

The port is a B key m.2, while the ssd is an M key m.2

B keys are used in SATA m.2 ssds, while M keys are pcie nvme m.2 ssds. You bought an nvme m.2 ssd, but needed a sata m.2 ssd.

(You can tell by how there are 28 pins on that side of the port, and 29 on the ssd. That matches b and m keys, respectively)

Work is the only reason I still have windows in my life, and thankfully, they will be trialing linux as an option for employees in the next month or two. I signed up so damn quick lol.

These days, it is often misused by ignorant people because it sounds derogatory.

FTFY

Yeah, home assistant is tiny... I'm not sure what he expects? Does he need it to run on a pi zero or something? Lol

I also find being able to so easily adjust the priority of results to be awesome. For example, some sites like amazon, Home Depot, and Audible, I want the canadian sites always over the american ones. So i can lower the priority of .com and raise .ca with two clicks.

That's just a hint / it cycling through things you can do with windows. It shows those while its updating

Or if its windows pro, choose for work, then say you will domain join instead of use a Microsoft account. It will let you just make a local account, and you can just not domain join it.
