What is C:\windows\temp? Wasn't LOCALAPPDATA supposed for that?

Really love being free of Windows and this bullshit.

Yeah, it’s been a breeze since I moved into Apple ecosystem. Nothing really being shoved down your throat feels nice.

So you change from the payed system that advertises but at least still have the option to use other things to the free os/over priced device that doesn't need to advertise since the only option is to use their shit? Really an improvement...

Are they begging for another antitrust?

That would require a functional or semi-functional government which we currently do not have.

There's an alternate timeline in which I actually give Bing and Edge a chance because Microsoft's not flinging their feces at their users constantly the way they are now

I find bing to be slightly less shit than google these days.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The sad thing is that Edge is actually decent, and Bing is also not terrible... E.g. as an user there is absolutely no reason to use Chrome instead, but Microsoft managed to make it seem so annoying with shit like this.

It's built on chromium.
