Why do we park in a driveway and drive in a parkway?
I only played the Red and Blue version for Gameboy. That was years ago. Never touched the series after they started marketing for kids. I was in 7th or 8th grade when it dropped. The original stuff was pretty great!
I knew Microsoft was working toward it and hinting that it was coming, but didn't think it would be available this soon!

It's just gentrification for services.
Windows Update Blocker (WuB) is great, has CLI to use in scripts, and effectively turns off Windows updates and prevents the dickhead "Windows update medic" or whatever service from re-enabling updates. No need to modify registry or GPO. When you want to check for updates, you just click a button in WuB! I love it and even use it in my VM for work.

How else can they tell you about all the great deals and live streams they've been paid to promote? Won't anyone think of the ads?!?!
Ps, Blizzard did the same shit with their battle.net client when they removed the ability to pop out the friends list like 3 years ago (or centuries, it feels like), forcing you to use the client just to communicate with friends. All so they could blast you with advertisements to other services they provide.
I just got told today to begin Windows 11 build testing at work. No one in the meeting seemed enthusiastic about it even going so far as to make fun of it's many...issues. Once I'm done getting off Google services, my next move is too divorce Windows like Melinda divorced Bill!
I just wish I wasn't so good at fucking up Linux on every machine I've tried it on.
But the sand isn't traveling around the desert at hundreds of kpms with the possibility to destroy you if you get hit by it.
Get rid of Ronald Reagan.
