Do you think Microsoft will ever again release an operating system that doesn't spy on the user? You know, like you pay money for it and it just makes other software run without sending your keystrokes to Microsoft, without turning on your webcam and microphone and sending the recordings to Microsoft, without making random screenshots when you do inconspicuous shit like watching cuck porn and sending them to Microsoft and stuff like that?

Shit, I would pay $1000 for a Windows without all the spyware, without ads, without Cortana, without shitty apps I never run, without the Windows store that serves as a ransomware landmine.

I can't go back to 7, but I can't stay on Windows 10 either. This shit is just too much for me to handle, I get anxiety attacks when I use it, I feel like they're always watching me, always listening, I feel violated and in all honesty I refuse to participate in my own surveillance anymore. I paid for this computer, I'm paying for the internet connection, and I would pay good money for a Windows that just runs games and shit that I need.

I can't deal with it, I'm already dabbling in Linux, I'm trying to install Arch Linux in a virtual machine and I've managed to reach base install and chroot into that shit to choose my keyboard layout, but I am completely incompetent for this shit that Sup Forums loves. I think I'll probably go with another distro that is much easier to install, like Ubuntu or Manjaro since a lot of you guys love it and call it Arch for babies and what not.

Is there a chance of Microsoft ever coming to their fucking senses? I can't deal with this bullshit anymore. This is not an operating system, this is insanity in disguise.

They said Windows 10 is the last Windows OS to come out.

They will just update it for the rest of eternity.

install a linux distro

I doubt it's going to happen, user. Google has already proven this business model to be highly successful. The only chance I see, is if the Europeens keep their relentless assault of lawsuits going. You have to hurt their bottomline if you want them to change.

>he uses Windows

Installing arch is easy, you retard. You literally just have to follow the manual, your average trump supporter could do it.

Do not go with Arch. Go with Ubunu or Debian.
Why can't you go back to 7?

>Why can't you go back to 7?

I bought a new computer. When I try to install it, it just fucks up and won't budge.

Don't listen to this
Manjaro is fine

No.

goddamit you are fucking retarded

you wrote so many words on a problem that doesn't even exist

it still baffles me how the minds of stupid people work sometimes.

and im not even using win10

and here comes the ms shill

rearing its pajeet head

I don't even care about the spyware.
The forced updates, moments of 100% utilization and laggy start menu with ads and stupid tiles, as well as poor support for having windows installed in English with a keyboard that is NOT english bothered me so much that I started dual booting Linux.

you tried

nice to know that ms pajeets are running arch because win10 is that much shit

you are such a great memer i can't even

It's not that you can disable this shit, it's that's spying is on by default. That is not good practice.

nice font redering you got there

how did you buy 12gb of ram?

personally i'm sticking with 7 until i upgrade my CPU (soon) so that i can use PCI passthrough. Then i'm going to run 7 in qemu for gaming inside linux (might do arch just to trigger niggers)

>spying
it's called telemetry

it was in win7, but nobody gave a shit
it was in win8, but nobody gave a shit
it's in win10 and microsoft is being transparent about it - WOW SPYING BOTNET ABANDON SHIP

and you're such a good debater knowing that time and again the spying has been proven yet here you are, posting your arch as if it proves anything

rakeesh, is that you? say hello to pajeet

>spying has been proven
roflmao

kys

8GB + 4GB

proprietary fonts made by professional font designers do wonders

my god, microsft has sunk to attempting humour in error messages

these are truly the end times

this is just r/Windows10 pandering

>it was in win7, but nobody gave a shit
able to be turned off with one flick of a radio button
>it was in win8, but nobody gave a shit

>it's in win10 and microsoft is being transparent about it
It's so deeply ingrained you aren't even able to turn it off

>I don't even care about the spyware.
But this is the only valid complaint?
>The forced updates
Saved you from wannacry as it seems you are completely retarded.
>laggy start menu with ads
???
>and stupid tiles
Remove them?
>as well as poor support for having windows installed in English with a keyboard that is NOT english
Martian or Klingon?

Install Gentoo

>Arch you guys love
Only autists love arch. Don't fall for the memes.
Try openSUSE, Kubuntu or ZorinOS. They're good enough for former windows users. If gaymin is important to you then try Kubuntu first.

KDE neon*

>KDE Neon
Enjoy your crashing.

the start menu is really unresponse. probably not on yours cuz youre a nigger that thinks getting an i7 is a good solution to shitty software

There is a lts version.

Ubuntu LTS + Plasma 5 LTS + no bloated bs preinstalled

...

Windows 8.1 + Classic Shell is the answer if you are that much of a windows cuck.

You know what operating system doesn't spy on you? Gentoo.

LTS is also unstable. I used it for the past 3 months and it couldn't last a week without crashing.

Could you be a bit more precise? Perhaps I can help you there.

Did you make sure to use the USB 2.0 port? Is secure boot disabled? Any new computer should work with Windows 7 as long as the USB/Disc installer is ok - even those "unsupported" CPUs (which work perfectly fine).

i5-4570. But I don't really know. It might be unresponsive. I accidentally clicked it once, deleted all the tiles, and resized it to "normal" before asking myself why I even bothered as it's a completely useless feature and a waste of taskbar space.

rightclick/win+x is ok I guess.

Welp thats weird

>Shit, I would pay $1000
>for Windows
m$ are scumbags. Linux is not great, but at least it isn't the garbage that is Windows.

No we are fucked, Microsoft had to do this though in response to Google. The big companies are competing with our data.

>Google has already proven this business model to be highly successful.

this.

Microsoft is just catching up. And they get called out for the kind of shit that Google does in all of its services.

And somehow Debian Sid is more stable than that, what the fuck are Canonical and KDEdevs doing?

why should I bother switching from windows to linux just as systemd cancer is metastasizing? I might as well stay with windows where at least I can count on all the software I need being available.

What about a liberal arts major Hillary lover

The solution is MacOS, but since you all shit behind the house, you can't afford an apple device, and therefore not recommend it to anyone.

Loonix Toons and its variations are nothing but immature operating systems built by neck bearded fucktards for silly 1337 4AX0R5 that live in their prostitute mothers' basements.

You need a fast, stable and robust operating system in which you can install the suite of apps that are also available on WannaCry Pro 10, that if you want to make some money in life and fuck beautiful women.

They've talked about the possibility of going open source. If they do, we'll be able to de-telemetrize it ourselves, but I'd assume we won't be able to distribute our mods.

>The solution is MacOS
But it's just not good.

Just use Ubuntu.

I don't even think they'll release another OS again. Windows 10 will just keep getting updates until it dies because everyone swapped to Macs or a Google OS (year of the Linux desktop is never)

>You need a fast, stable and robust operating system
1) MacOS is not fast. It's fast on the hardware. It's faster on the hardware than anything else is. But the hardware itself is not fast. Ergo, the operating system is not fast, because it doesn't run on anything else.
2) All operating systems are stable and secure if the person who uses them isn't an idiot. If you're telling me I need an operating system that's stable when the person who uses it IS an idiot, well, that seems like an insult.
3) GNU/Linux is more robust than MacOS. It seems the only objections you have to it are ideological and associative. To which I say, bleh.
>You need a fast, stable and robust operating system in which you can install the suite of apps that are also available on WannaCry Pro 10, that if you want to make some money in life and fuck beautiful women.
Spoken like a true brainlet. Only an idiot doesn't know any software made for Windows, MacOS, OR Linux can be run on all three, and Linux offers the greatest built-in capability for automating money-making tasks. Why should I have to work hard AND pay my electricity bill, when with a little programming and the right shell commands, my electricity bill can do my job for me?

>making random screenshots
>false
Proven true, but it may have been only in the developer builds for testing purposes. It's been seen though.

>sending your keystrokes to Microsoft
>false ( unless you use cortana or have internet bing search, which is just how it fucking works )
Cortana can't even be turned off fully anymore without registry edits.

>turning on your webcam and microphone and sending the recordings to Microsoft
>false
I don't think this one has been proven either way

>1) MacOS is not fast. It's fast on the hardware. It's faster on the hardware than anything else is. But the hardware itself is not fast. Ergo, the operating system is not fast, because it doesn't run on anything else.
So, it's fast. We're talking about OSes here, fuckface. Ergo, as you've so eloquently stated, the hardware is the issue causing the slowdown. But bullshit to you, because the hardware Apple offers is just fine for MacOS.
>2) All operating systems are stable and secure if the person who uses them isn't an idiot. If you're telling me I need an operating system that's stable when the person who uses it IS an idiot, well, that seems like an insult.
The #1 threat to a computer is human error. MacOS is retard-proofed against idiots and pajeet tinkerers. Computers are meant to be easy to use in order to fulfill their purposes. It's not ideal to continually troubleshoot, google a bunch of technical bullshit, and needing to manually perform maintenance shit on the OS - that's something that should be automatically handled by the OS.
>3) GNU/Linux is more robust than MacOS. It seems the only objections you have to it are ideological and associative. To which I say, bleh.
Nobody cares about your communist piece of shit OS. Go rustle yourself between Stallman's pube-beard for more warmth. Of course you're dealing with ideology and associations: a computer is meant to be an extension of your life, not your pathetic life alone.

You can, but 7 is still universally backdoored.

>I'm trying to install Arch Linux

Installing Arch is easy if you follow the steps exactly and have a little bit of comfort using the cursor keys, basic terminal commands, and such. It's not actually that deep into autism territory as Sup Forums will tell you, it's just that you have to babysit a few things to get new software to work which is a pain, I'll admit.

I use Parabola, which is a variant of Arch that I prefer. Look it up if you honestly want Arch.

Honestly, just use a non-bloated distro, probably something meant for servers, that is easy to install and then put desktop packages on it post-installation and you won't have as many things you don't want.

Not all distros use the same package manager, so you'll probably want to learn how they work online.

To put it simply, here's how a basic terminal session is used:

cd: change directory (think of this like double clicking a folder and entering it)

for instance: cd /etc

mkdir -p: make a directory

for instance: mkdir -p /etc/mydirectory

and to run a program, type

(program name) (arguments) (file to be affected)

for instance:
sudo (program which does the next program with root authority) nano (a text editor) /home/.config/i3/config (a text file).

Not him, but you just basically praised the virtues of being stupid. Take your hat, and go sit in the corner.

>the hardware Apple offers is just fine for MacOS.
It isn't, though. The hardware Apple offers isn't just fine for anything. It's trash.
>It's not ideal to continually troubleshoot, google a bunch of technical bullshit, and needing to manually perform maintenance shit on the OS
Good thing there's literally no OS that makes you do this.
>Of course you're dealing with ideology and associations: a computer is meant to be an extension of your life, not your pathetic life alone.
The first clause of that sentence is unrelated to the second and third.
Ubuntu automates everything a desktop OS should automate, and lets you automate more if you feel like it. MacOS and Windows can't do that shit nearly as well.
Let me know when MacOS has:
>window tiling
>a package manager
>a version of screen that supports splitting in both directions

Hi guys. How do I limit the number of cells in libreoffice?

What about Void linux over parabola?
