    Interesting that they clearly know that doing that would be undesirable to the laptop owner.

    Nice try, but the legend of Windows 11 is just that, a legend…a story we tell young children when we want them to behave themselves… right?..

    For a second I thought this was real. I know some companies forcibly restart their own work devices if they’re left switched on and not interacted with for a while in order to apply security patches

      Part of my job is doing that for 2k computers for over 100 different small businesses. I schedule that shit to happen automatically after hours, but some people I work with don’t. They push those rebouts and updates whenever and it causes a lot of problems.

    If I had infinite time to follow my whims, this makes me want to make an OS/bootloader that checks the other boot devices to see if it is attempting to install windows and then act as if it is but throw all kinds of strange errors while actually doing nothing.
