OT 19/3: A Warning to Future Generations

[Felonious Python]

The Chiefs are just exhausted. They've played so much football the past three years...

Are there any of us who has Windows 10, but currently won't be able to upgrade to Windows 11? What are you planning on doing about that? Windows 10 support is scheduled to end in October, right about at the start of next season.

It seems the Linux-heads are steering those people towards Linux Mint.

I think I can update my desktop PC but I have to turn on secure boot and TPM which I've been too scared/lazy to do. I have a laptop that can't update at all but I barely use it any more anyway since I got a MacBook.

I had to turn TPM on. It's not too bad. Look up some tutorials on YouTube and just follow the instructions. If you mess something up in the UEFI menu, you can still go back and set everything to default.

I'm still using Windows 10 for now.

I still kinda think Microsoft is gonna blink and extend security patches just because there's too many 10 machines out there

I've got Windows 11 installing on my machines right now because YOLO. Windows 10 is doomed either way.

edit: it's okay. I haven't done much with it yet, but it's like if Windows 10 got a service pack, or Windows 10.1.

Especially since the Win 11 version 24H2 update is such a shitshow, our IT Coordinator told us not to run the update... 5 months ago. That's with a compatibility hold since

I have a cheap little computer hooked up to my TV with Windows 11 for streaming stuff that isn't on an app. I don't hate it but nothing about it has me excited to upgrade, and since all games still work great on 10 nothing has pushed me except for this end of support.
