Windows is starting to get really annoying. Of course, I've disabled all sorts of unnecessary messages in Windows and enabled "fokusstöd" (whatever that translates into in English), and yet I receive this annoying ad, distracting me from my work! Who gives a fuck about Xbox or whatever they are trying to sell!?

@retoor If it was linux there would be a fork within 5 minutes

@BordedDev

*lol*

The only thing worse than Windows is everything else.

There really needs to be a law that your operating system is not allowed to do things like this. This is a tool, not a media product we're brainlessly consuming for entertainment. It should apply to phones, cars, hammers, everything.

@cuddlyogre Did you know that if you connect your phone to your car, it sends all your contacts to the manufacturers servers

@BordedDev Fortunately, my car stereo touch screen stopped working about year 3 so I can't pair it even if I wanted to.

It would cost over $1200 to replace, not that I want to. They regularly play blasting harsh white noise as a way to coerce you into paying for satellite radio, so I stopped using it altogether.

The future is stupid.

@cuddlyogre Hahaha you could just rip the whole thing out and replace it with a standard tablet you know

@cuddlyogre let's not get government into something else

need competition

👻

@BordedDev That cost is if I did it. If the dealer did it, it's well into the $2k range. There are steering wheel controls and a backup camera and probably a hundred other things I have to get adapters for. It's ridiculous. I just play music through my phone on long rides and that's more than sufficient.
