I am not really surprised. As long as people are not starving and they have any kind of recreational activities (social media, streaming, alcohol, drugs), they won't do shit. The ancient romans already new about that. They gave the people "bread and circuses".

I didn't find anything regarding that. I only found a fellow German who thought about shipping that stuff from Germany...

I wonder if it is feasible to book a trip to Canada or Mexico and just buy it there. I guess pharmacies accept prescriptions of 'Murican doctors there, if patients pay themselves...

It's been some time, but IIRC, I downloaded W11 onto a flashdrive with the MS media creation tool, booted of this drive and did a fresh install over my W10 installation. In this process I wiped my disk. Before that I googled what to do in order to be able to install without an internet connection. This allowed me to complete the installation without an MS account. This procedure might have changed since then. AFAIK there are still some hoops you can jump through in order to get it running without an MS account.

I use Windows 11 without an MS account and with Classic Shell. You can hardly tell a difference. I will continue using it. Because I can't be bothered not to. It also came with my computer (well, W10 did but the upgrade worked painlessly).

So... what am I not understanding then? You left that info out, inconveniently.

Your first ammendment guarantees that everybody can weigh in and say that your foreign policies suck dicks. Wether you like it or not.

What is this in imperial? How many bullets per square-child?

Especially the person in the background starting Elon's first public robotaxi-trip with a remote control didn't really help.
