Lol. I have a guess but don’t want to give it away before they answer.

What the fuck is “circle”?

Good enough t for browsing and watching stand, maybe. Good for games? Not a chance in hell.

Wi-Fi doesn’t mean Internet at all.

It’s just a wireless connection to other devices, one of which almost always (in colloquial use anyway) is a modem that has Internet access.

But it is not, in and of itself, a connection to the Internet.

I’ve been out on medical disability since '21.

I dread this possibility when I try going back to work soon.

I knew as soon as I heard about Win10 having candy crush on the start menu that it would be the last Windows I ever installed. I had been meaning to switch for years before that (actually dabbled with a dual boot of Ubuntu back on whatever version number “Edgy Eft” was-- 5? 6?). I stayed mainly on Windows because I don’t really think Wine or Proton was around yet (who knows maybe I just hadn’t heard of it yet), but I did really like how non-Windows it was.

It was always in the back of my head and I knew my time was coming. Just had to get my system cleaned up (file wise) and ready to move over.

Then I ended up making a new build first so instead of moving I just never put Windows on this machine at all.

Anyway the last time I worked I still use Windows at home. So other than attempting to set up a printer on my sister’s computer one time (which didn’t work out because I was only there for about 20 minutes total and it had some wireless pairing to do but just wouldn’t find whatever it was trying to find), I’ve never even touched 11. But the tiny bit I did see have me the same ick that moving from Win7 to 10 gave me. Things like how they fucked with the control panel and made a new, half-redundant settings app, had built-in cortana in the task bar, etc all bothered me.

But given that the awfulness that was 10 is longed for now, I really hope whatever job I get doesn’t have to use Win11.

Probably, but until they see at least 20 pictures of your 5 year old in a bikini, they’ll just beat you.
