    So couple of issues there. Never upgrade windows. Fresh install only. Never had a good day upgrading it. Secondly, there isn't always a solution in Linux. I've got one now where so…

    No Linux desktop delivers what the user wants, needs or expect. Only what the developers think they need and find interesting to fix. It's more fun reinventing wheels badly than fi…

    It goes really fast if you turn off the connected experiences like linked in, the AI crap, the splash screen, all the cloud shit and crack it with massgrave. Like office 97 speed. …

    That's how big email works these days. Fucking sucks but it is. I stopped running my own stuff after Yahoo decided it didn't like me one afternoon with no recourse.

    As much as I'd like a machine like that, my 5 year old random Lenovo 10500 desktop is probably more useful as a daily driver machine than an older workstation class machine at the …
