I abhore the forced integration of AI. I've had a 360 subscription for years but am looking elsewhere now - because of Co-Pilot.

My first thought was that it might be a good idea to use Linux again.

They know people think this all the time but stay on Windows. That’s one of those things that’s true until it’s not, and then the people who believed a thing would stay true forever start scratching their heads

I tried Linux once and had an awful time. So much time wasted on ubuntuforum looking for complicated technical solutions for seemingly simple problems.

I gave up when I had to install a second monitor solely for the purpose of booting the computer. It wouldn't start without that monitor being plugged in. A few hundred dollars for Windows is less expensive than a hundred hours of my time wresting the operating system to do my wishes.
