I said literally like two days ago "fine then; keep using windows until they take a feature you rely on and all your data is either gone, or trapped in an impenetrably useless shell"

Theres no practical value to being right, but fsmn does it feel good.

Uh, sorry about your shit. If you want to still have your computer in a year; switch to linux

We have 80,000 people that work for my company. That’s not going to happen. Now we have 10,000 VMs running a combination of Ubuntu, Red Hat, Debian, and Centos. But our employees choose the OS they want to run on their own work devices whether it be Linux, MacOS, or Windows and no way is everyone is going to Linux, even if that is my own OS of choice. Especially the C-Level and board member types.

Well, back up all their shit and have a compatible open source alternative on the table, for the day it suddenly dies.
