Honestly, guys, gals and others, Microsoft is making it crystal clear they don't want you to use their OS. It's not your OS, it's theirs. Stop trying mangle it into something it is not. If you need registry edits just to make the OS usable, it's not worth it. It's not for you. Please, please, please look at alternatives that respect you, your intelligence, your privacy and your data. One day Microsoft will push an update that will lock you out of your machine unless you create an account. Jumping through these hoops is just delaying the inevitable. Using an OS is not worth all this effort and stress.

openSUSE Tumbleweed has served me well for some time now. Maybe give it a look-see?

Dracula by Bram Stoker. Never read it before. I did see the 1992 movie adaptation, but that was a long time ago.

Welcome to Linux!

Have you found Linux adoption easy? Have there been any significant roadblocks?

That fucking album though, holy shit.

It may not be a good Super Mario movie, but I enjoy it.

Well, some specs as to what kind of hardware you have, and what kind of software you intend to use (browsing, gaming, editing, what ever). Maybe a word on what kind of desktop experience you are looking for (Windows, Mac, something else). Do you absolutely need the latest versions of software. Tell us what you need from your OS.

Sure. I try to disable or disconnect cameras and microphones when possible. My laptop's camera has tape on it and on my PinePhone I've disabled the camera with a switch.

I have read these multiple times:

A Mother's Reckoning: Living in the Aftermath of Tragedy by Sue Klebold, the mother of Dylan Klebold, one of the Columbine shooters. It's a heavy book.

How much of it is nonfiction is up in the air, but I love Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 by Hunter S. Thompson. Hunter is sharp and observant and funny as hell. It's eerie how little has changed in American elections in 50 years.

GNU Hurd. Never used it, but I like the idea and would love to see it become a viable option.
