WHY DO YOU USE WINDOWS 10

WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU USING WINDOWS 10 Sup Forums ALL THESE FAGGOTS I SEE USING EDGE AND FUCKING 10 AND FUCKING CORTANA WITH THEIR SHITTY "MINIMAL" DESKTOPS AND ANIMÉ WALLPAPERS. GOD FUCKING DAMMIT HAVE YOU LEARNED NOTHING OR HAVE NORMIES OVERRUN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS BOARD.

LET ME LIST ONE OF THE FEW REASONS WINSHIT 10 IS SHIT :
-NO FUCKING PRIVACY, AND THEY DON'T EVEN TRY TO HIDE IT
-TELEMETRY THAT YOU CAN'T DISABLE BY DEFAULT
-UPDATES THAT YOU ARE FORCED TO INSTALL AND THAT FUCKING RESTART YOUR FUCKING PC WITHOUT ASKING IF YOU POSTPONE THEM TOO MUCH
-FUCKING SHIT WINDOWS APPS THAT FUCKING DOWNLOAD THEMSELVES FROM THEIR SHITTY STORE OPEN YOUR PC EVERY TWO DAYS TO FIND FUCKING CANDY CRUSH IN THE START MENU
-INCONSISTENT SETTINGS MENUS
-DISGUSTING INCONSISTENT GRAPHICS AND FONT ASSORTMENTS
-WHERE THE FUCK IS DOS
-FUCKING CORTANA WATCHING ME JERK MYSELF OFF TO TENTACLE PORN
-I USED TO LOVE CORTANA THEY RUINED HALO FOR ME

UNLESS YOU ARE WORKING IN A FIELD THAT REQUIRES YOU TO USE ALL THE LATEST WINDOWS BULLSHIT FRAMEWORKS OR WHATEVER WHY THE FUCKONG FUCK ARE YOU FUCKING USING IT

It's simpler

jesus calm down brah

came free with my pc and works flawlessly for shitposting and games

fuck off normie

What do you mean by simpler? Compared to Linux?
I'm not asking you to use Linux just use 8.1 with start 8 and disable the start menu and hot corners and you've got yourself an os
Or just go 7 like a reasonable human being

This is why no one will move to Linux. Complacency is the best foil to change.

Because all new computers come with it

>HAVE NORMIES OVERRUN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS BOARD
But you're the normie

Might later on, i have plans on upgrading my storage soon, so It'll have to wait

what a fucking sperg hahahaha

hey idiot, I use windows because I'm familiar with it, and I don't have the time nor the need to switch to linux now, because it would be a waste of time for me

Setting aside that buying pre-built makes no sense itself, if it's a laptop just take a half hour of your shitposting time to do something useful and downgrade back to 8 or 7

your arguments:
privacy - fuck off pedo
getting updates - they're useful
inconsistency - more consistent than open source x11 alternatives
also no one forces you to use windows store
-bsd user

Idk, I pretty much treat every Windows OS like XP. That was the first OS I learned and really and truly, besides all this extra bloated stuff like the Windows App Store, and Cortana, it's the same GUI it's always been.

As for stuff like "NO FUCKING PRIVACY", you're using something created by a giant company. You don't think they were tracking us long before people knew it? The fucking smartphone you have has 2 (or more cameras) on it, and a mic. There's no privacy left, bub.


But yeah, OP did seem like a troll post, but did address a lot of things people legitimately whine about in regards to Windows 10. I couldn't give less of a fuck. Works well as an OS, A LOT of programs can run on it, and it's not too simple (MAC), and still not too difficult (Linux). There's a reason Windows is so ubiquitous in regards to desktop OS's. It's just awesome. Not because it's widely used but because it gets the job done, like your mom when she's under my desk ;)

I'm here to validate myself

Got a good deal on a dell with a good processor, added the SSD and GPU and power supply, worked out well.

cheaper than I could have built it anyway.

why downgrade to 8 or 7 when directx is going to force me to win 10 anyway?

Also my processor is new and I am not sure you can downgrade to 7 with it

I never said use Linux nigger
I've seen your bait and choose to ignore it
I don't wanna sound Sup Forums and shit but that's very sheepy of you, it's not that big of an effort to switch after it first arrives since there are all these good reasons not to use it

i use windows 7
xp > 7 > 8.1 > 10 > 8

>I never said use Linux nigger
can't game on a hackentosh brah

>This is why no one will move to Linux. Complacency is the best foil to change.
also win 10 is better than linux for a desktop

> I am C# programmer
> I like to play games
> I use Adobe Photoshop
> Sometimes I need to make call with Skype
That's pretty enough

Just use Enterprise LTSB

The only valid criticisms of that are the menus/graphics/fonts are still shit

And it probably still spies on you a bit

>why downgrade to 8 or 7 when directx is going to force me to win 10 anyway?
name one non-microsoft game that uses only dx12
also vulcan works on windows 7

>I never said use Linux

HAHAHAHAHA, what makes you think I would want to switch to mac OS? I'm as familiar with it as I am with linux - aka not at all

why the fuck would I waste my time trying to learn a new OS when I can do everything I need/want to on Windows?

Because the last owner of my thinkpad installed it and I'm not going to bother with win 7 until I stick an SSD in it.

-privacy: nothing to hide argument? Try harder
-updates: never useful, one in a million are for virus infections, which you shouldn't get if you're not a fucking retard that tries to download more ram
-inconsistency:I'm comparing it to other paid oses
Your argument is that it works... 7 or 8 work too, why use something that doesn't even have the decency to pretend to respect you as a user. At least they hid the botnet back in 7 and gave you a choice to bloat your pc or not
I haven't thought of the direct x problem honestly, I hope a solution will be found

Win 7 or 8
Depends on personal experience and opinions, but 10 is an objectively bad OS
This
WINDOWS FUCKING 7 OR 8, guess it's my fault not being clear enough

>HAVE NORMIES OVERRUN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS BOARD
yes, it's pretty much normies and Sup Forums here

that's right - nothing to hide!
also updates are useful
and windows is certainly better than solaris or risc os in gui department. macos is free

i like windows 10

>Depends on personal experience and opinions, but 10 is an objectively bad OS

I press the power button, it boots, I open a browser, i get the internet, I type a document, I email it to someone. i click a game, i play the game.

what is bad about it, it does everything the average person needs from a desktop flawlessly

>name one non-microsoft game that uses only dx12

it's called the future user,

additionally on brand new intel processors you can't boot win 7 and support for 8 is limited

no reason not to use 10

>-WHERE THE FUCK IS DOS
DOS hasn't been in Windows for like two decades now.

>it's called the future user
it's been already 2 years and there is still no game not made by microsoft that only uses dx12 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_with_DirectX_12_support
people who make games aren't that stupid, they include both dx11 and dx12 and/or vulkan

>-WHERE THE FUCK IS DOS
do you mean the command prompt?

would you like to know how I know you didn't actually use DOS bundled with win 7 or 8?

i bet you don't even really know what DOS is

It's so painfully obvious they've been trying to push an obvious botnet, from the average consumer to the gamers. Why would they make that shit free otherwise

>it's been already 2 years and there is still no game not made by microsoft that only uses dx12 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_with_DirectX_12_support

Why use 11 when I can use 12 with the OS that came with my PC?

additionally I have a Kabby Lake processor and cannot install win 7 or 8

what part of that do you not understand?

>It's so painfully obvious they've been trying to push an obvious botnet, from the average consumer to the gamers. Why would they make that shit free otherwise
cant support old operating systems on new hardware forever user, this has always been the case

>additionally I have a Kabby Lake processor and cannot install win 7 or 8
you're retarded or trolling right now

You can still use 8 with kaby lake

>where the fuck is dos

AHAHAHAHAAHAHAH

Your post made me laugh lol

>you're retarded or trolling right now
do you not keep up with computers user?
>You can still use 8 with kaby lake
it is not supported

Summary: "Operating system support for Intel Kaby Lake 7th Generation Core processors is limited to Windows 10".

Kaby Lake (Intel 7th Generation Core processors).

Intel's seventh generation Core processors, the Kaby Lake series (I7-7xxx, I5-7xxx CPU description = Kaby Lake), will only have Windows 10 operating system support.

Dell is in alignment with both Intel and Microsoft support policies for Kaby Lake systems, limiting Kaby Lake operating system support to the Windows 10 operating system alone.

There will be no legacy operating system support (Windows 7 or Windows 8.1) for Kaby Lake equipped systems.

Was being mentally retarded part of your plan?

i don't care what they say, windows 7 and 8 works on kaby lake cpus

agree with OP so many just drank the koolaid and gave in just because surveillance is ubiquituous why should you care and do you have a choice to give up your soul and let yourself be traced and analyzed because of a boogeyman that you may be part of if you don't give in just cause everyone does it and that's the norm, going against it makes you a normie because you're so special for x reasons to stay asleep

(You)

>i don't care what they say, windows 7 and 8 works on kaby lake cpus
Yes I am sure microsoft and intel know better than you do

7 absolutely does not work on the latest kaby lakes

>Literally works perfectly other than blocking automatic updates, which you can download manually anyway
>Thinking it's anything but dirty, W10-pushing trucks

I'm pretty sure that's true
I remember something about them working on any os, logically I don't see why they wouldn't

1 idgaf about your autism
2 the software i want to use runs like garbage on linux

The OS is not supported user, it will not work at all sooner rather than later and they are warning you

but yeah it's just intel and microsoft, what do they know?

>I remember something about them working on any os, logically I don't see why they wouldn't
REALLY

you don't know why an operating system not designed for the hardware you are trying to install it on won't work/??

REALLY?

>OS designed to work on x86/x86-64 systems will suddenly stop working on one it currently does
And why would that be? Why would Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 suddenly stop functioning on a Kaby Lake CPU?

>And why would that be? Why would Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 suddenly stop functioning on a Kaby Lake CPU?

because it's not supported?

as in Microsoft will issue no security software for windows 7 in regard to the kaby lake architecture-zero updates, zero support

Windows 7 was designed nearly 10 years ago before any x86/x64 SOCs existed. For Windows 7 to run on any modern silicon, device drivers and firmware need to emulate Windows 7’s expectations for interrupt processing, bus support, and power states, which is challenging for WiFi, graphics, security, and more.

What the fuck are you even talking about? It's like you just looked at the Wikipedia page for 'CPUs' and vomited words into your post. Win 7 works fine on 7th gen intel. Worked fine on 6th gen intel. Will work fine on 8th gen intel.

I like Windows 10, stay eternally mad and btfo that you can't force me to use what you like, GNUmale linuck.

>7 absolutely does not work on the latest kaby lakes
FAGGOT detected.

that it does
the morons ITT need to visit speccy threads more often, while 7 installs are few because it takes more than two brain cells to install 7 thanks to usb 3.0/3.1 driver fuckery, they do exist on kaby and ryzen

>What the fuck are you even talking about? It's like you just looked at the Wikipedia page for 'CPUs' and vomited words into your post. Win 7 works fine on 7th gen intel.

that is incorrect.

If you think an unsupported operating system that has been actively blocked by microsoft from running on kaby lake is a good OS to run

you should do it

u smrt

>I've seen your bait and choose to ignore it
>Still gave them (You)

That's not how you ignore it

>while 7 installs are few because it takes more than two brain cells to install 7 thanks to usb 3.0/3.1 driver fuckery, they do exist on kaby and ryzen

god you guys are retarded

"DOWNGRADE TO AN UNSUPPORTED OS AND FUCK WITH DRIVERS AND SECURITY FOREVER ITS A GOOD IDEA"

you sound like OP

>AND FUCK WITH DRIVERS
Only Intel bitches about windows 7. Ryzen has chipset support for 7.

>only pedophiles require privacy argument
Please put in more effort
>getting updates is useful
no shit, but no amount of updates will ever fix Windows' endless chain of security failures
>no one forces you to use the windows store
no one forces you to eat the gross harry potter beans, but that doesn't negate the fact that they're a big part of the total product

>as in Microsoft will issue no security software for windows 7 in regard to the kaby lake architecture-zero updates, zero support
Wrong. Windows 7 works on Kaby Lake and it gets all the updates.
It's possible that you might run into some bug at some point, but so far it works just fine.

I think 10 is just a bad OS overall, spyware or not. It's a beta quality, unfinished mess and it shouldn't have been released to the public yet.
But after 7 and 8 stop getting updates (2020/2023) I'll switch to it, no big deal. I might keep it offline, though, in a VM or something and do the internet stuff on Linux.

Bless your souls anons, good to see Sup Forums hasn't went full autism yet

>Sup Forums
>not autism
Where do you think you are?

I pretty much expect everything to be a botnet by now, you just get to choose who monitors your data. I stuck with 7 for a bit, got a virus because it's a purposefully deprecated and vulnerable in order that people switch to 10, 10 is very safe and I'd rather be monitored by them than by random botnets, hackers, trojans and rootkits by who knows who with who knows what intentions.

>-UPDATES THAT YOU ARE FORCED TO INSTALL AND THAT FUCKING RESTART YOUR FUCKING PC WITHOUT ASKING IF YOU POSTPONE THEM TOO MUCH
Guess why most WannaCry victims were on Windows 7? Exactly, because they refused to do their updates.
Forced updates are in the interest of the security of everyone on the Internet. Precisely because of shits like you.

Because it works and there's no reason not to use it and eventually hit EOL with the older OSes.

>got a virus
This just proves that you're a computer illiterate normie. Do yourself a favor and just get a Mac.
And if you want to play games get a console, they're made for people like you.

but i use all these on my Win 8.1

I have, it worked fine and it will continue to do so.

>Wow, it's fucking nothing that identifies you or what you're doing!
But that's wrong. They have tons of info on what's going on on your PC. Just because they might not have your name and surname doesn't mean you're not identifiable.

I'm not saying MS sends this data to NSA so they can spy on you and use custom zero days to infiltrate your PC, but the fact is that they CAN do this, based on telemetry data.

>NO FUCKING PRIVACY, AND THEY DON'T EVEN TRY TO HIDE IT

I don't care.

>TELEMETRY THAT YOU CAN'T DISABLE BY DEFAULT

I don't care.

>UPDATES THAT YOU ARE FORCED TO INSTALL AND THAT FUCKING RESTART YOUR FUCKING PC WITHOUT ASKING IF YOU POSTPONE THEM TOO MUCH

Restarting my PC takes ~5 seconds, it's not an issue.

>FUCKING SHIT WINDOWS APPS THAT FUCKING DOWNLOAD THEMSELVES FROM THEIR SHITTY STORE OPEN YOUR PC EVERY TWO DAYS TO FIND FUCKING CANDY CRUSH IN THE START MENU

Didn't notice, I don't use start menu

>INCONSISTENT SETTINGS MENUS

How often do you use them? It's set and forget.

>DISGUSTING INCONSISTENT GRAPHICS AND FONT ASSORTMENTS

Looks OK to me.

>WHERE THE FUCK IS DOS

It's still here.

>FUCKING CORTANA WATCHING ME JERK MYSELF OFF TO TENTACLE PORN

Not in my version.

Contain yourself fag. I have a desktop + dell xps laptop running win10, I use them work, travel etc, basicly all my normie needs. I also have encrypted linux machine for other needs.
Not having several machines in 2017 is retarded.

[x] did not actually read the link

I just prefer Windows.

I've had Macs before and always found myself simply not using them (it just feels like there's nothing to do with one) and Linux is way more trouble than it's worth; the tearing is truly a plague, even with just a single display it'll rear it's ugly head more often than I can tolerate.

my sex games tho

LOL how can you say that when most normies don't even have a desktop computer

There is room between ignorance and not wanting to bother too much.

>I have, it worked fine and it will continue to do so.
Yeah it's not like support just got cut off months ago

you will be good, FOREVER

security patches from the makers of your operating system for machines running kaby lake being non existent just adds to the intelligence of your post

>>WHERE THE FUCK IS DOS
>It's still here.

Please show me how to access DOS on my Windows 10 machine

As I said before user, the security patches being artificially withheld still install fine. You just can't use windows update.

Only retards use Windows 10.

>As I said before user, the security patches being artificially withheld still install fine.

yes they will never stop making them

win 7 is only 10 years old, they should support it for decades to come, even though they say they wont, you should be fine

just works dude

i dual boot, and i prefer my arch with gnome for general desktop use over win10

it has better virtual desktop management, better UI design, better usability ( small things, like scrolling over volume icon to adjust volume, easy to use and install extensions, etc ), better font rendering ( if you replace the freeshit fonts with win or mac ones ), and it even runs and boots faster, and it doesnt make my harddrive spin everytime i leave it on standby.

i still need windows for certain programs though, otherwise id just ditch it for good, even though i got a relatively comfy setup, with shitton of autohotkey scripts and other adjustments.

win10 over win7 or 8 because it's actually better than them.

it's very fast, I personally like the aesthetics the most of any Windows yet and desu I think UWP apps are pretty good when they're done right. They clearly aren't for power users but for simple stuff they are a nice user experience. Groove is a pretty nice music player aesthetically.

Most of the telemetry shit in 10 was also in 8, 8 and 8.1. Any that wasn't has since been backported. If you actually give a shit about anonymised telemetry collection (which I personally don't) then you can turn it off with third party tools.

If you haven't installed gentoo yet you're a fucken normie and gtfo this board

user, stop trying to slide this argument. We aren't talking about if an 8 year old OS is going to be viable a decade from now. We're talking about if it actually works as intended on current Intel silicon.
And it does. And you're retarded.

better drivers

>user, stop trying to slide this argument. We aren't talking about if an 8 year old OS is going to be viable a decade from now.

lol yeah it's not like Microsoft said they would not support it anymore, or intel

you just write an OS and it just magically lives forever

you are right, microsoft is wrong, great argument

I think you're just autisming to yourself now.

Yeah when microsoft an intel say Win 7 is going to be phased out with new hardware the best thing to do is not listen to them and pay attention to people on Sup Forums who have no fucking idea how an OS works

>also win 10 is better than linux for a games
Fixed for you. Linux is miles better for desktop.
