Comment Hey Satya (Score 2) 31

Hey Satya, great job on turning Windows into a steaming pile of shit. No, I really mean that. It's high time the world starts looking for alternatives to your spyware disguised as an "OS". If it wasn't for Windows 8 and then 10 and now the diabolical 11 I would have never made the switch to Linux. I absolutely loved Windows 7 and would have been a customer for life if not for the hate you have for your user base. Sincerely, thank you for setting me free.

Same here. Omni Fiber came in two years ago and starting burying fiber. My neighborhood started hooking up last year and I was one of the first to do it. $45 a month for 350 up/down, no contracts, no hidden fees. Plans go all the way up to 2Gb up/down for $105 but 350 is more than enough. Screw cable, AT&T, and all the others. Fiber is the way to go. Even if the other players get fiber laid I would not switch back after all the years of fuckery from them.

QB64 is written in C. In fact, the QuickBasic source code you write is converted to C and then compiled. QB64 is fantastic fun for anyone wanted to code old school. You can visit the site here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fqb64phoenix.com%2Fforum%2F... and there is also a tutorial site here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.qb64tutorial.com%2F that introduces you to the new keywords and concepts that make QB64 a modern version of QBasic.

The more Microsoft hates it end users (and gamers) the more you are going to see Linux start to make inroads. It's ironic how Microsoft is the one making Linux a better option. Windows 11 was the best thing to ever happen for Linux. I hope Windows 12 continues this trend. The cycle of Microsoft's good version/bad version of Windows ended many years ago with bad version.
