I made the switch for a second time

To Linux. Well, I did this several years ago back when Windows 7 was nearing its end of support, but at that time I had no one helping me, didn't really know what to do, only one of my games worked very poorly, so I ended up moving back over to seven and then upgraded to win 10.

Because of Microsoft's ridiculous hardware requirements for Windows 11, just a simple operating system, that was my main reason for making the jump, because my computer does not have the hardware to run the operating system, and no I'm not going to use Rufus to try and get around it. But then, tack on forced updates and your personal sensitive data being screenshotted every 5 minutes as well, I'm just done.

I told my friend, I said, this time around I have someone helping me that knows what they're doing and if it takes me 6 months, if it takes me a year to get my games working, I will wholeheartedly sit through it, learn and understand how everything works, just to get away from Microsoft and their ridiculous antics.

You give them your money and they care about you and once they have your money you mean nothing to them. And besides, I didn't realize monopolies were legal all of a sudden 🤔

I did the same thing with a Macbook that started acting up after an OS update. Evidently, it caused a GPU issue and periodically crashed. I put Linux on it just to prove it was caused by the OS update. It worked fine after installing Linux. Unfortunately, that was about it, and that machine was relegated to (mostly) internet browsing.

@BrewCityBarfly when I had windows 10, I would boot my computer up and it would probably say maybe 2 or 3 minutes before it would actually get to the desktop, and then when the desktop did finally load, I had to wait another 7 or 8 minutes before I can actually start using the computer because of the CPU usage was maxed out at 100% on all eight cores.

I use text to speech and spelled their wrong, but I'm at work and break is about over, I'll try to edit later.
