"I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until my job required it."
Good, users like you are the reason ransomware happens. Fucking update your shit. Windows 7 isn't secure anymore.
Fuck your judgemental horseshit. Enjoy your loss of ownership and telemetry laiden trash.
I use arch btw.
/s but seriously "held off" doesn't mean "kept using aftsr end of service" like you assumed. Lots of people waited till 7's end of life to switch.
@TeepoPeeto @c0mbatbag3l Stuck with Win2k from 1999-2010, was forced onto XP when stuff like games wouldn't install because 2k didn't have Windows Firewall. Never mind the PC already had a decent firewall (think it was atGuard).
Still use Win7, in a VM, as it's where my 🏴☠️ Adobe products run.
