      I think it has more to do with the new atomic update and their now-usual not-testing aproach.

    Bah, each time I want to do the manual upgrade from 23h2 I have to postpone it again due to some stupid bug or annoying feature that makes me reconsider doing it.

    Linux users: “See what we mean?”

    Windows users: “La la la! I can’t hear you! Losing my data is clearly better than having to learn something new!”

        Linux treats users like a person and Windows treats users like children. Be the person Linux trusts you to be.

        Yeah but luckily by the mid 80s it was completely digitized and just there in the basement for reference.

      They probably used copilot to write the code. It compiled so they shipped it.
