So, as embarrassing as it is, every OTHER computer in my house, from my computer, my daughters laptop, my wifes computer, and my laptop are all on Linux. BUT my NAS has still been on Windows... With the Agentic AI garbage coming from Microsoft I am finally going to fully swap OFF from it and onto TrueNAS. I have a 2TB nvme drive I will be putting into it for a cache drive as well. Then I will have to figure out how to get my Valheim server set up and all that fun stuff going lol. Currently I am making… See More

sure I have doubles from all my client stuff. I am not overly busy atm so this is the right time to get everything situated lol.

While I dislike all the AI stuff, I'll continue to use Windows 11 and see where it all goes. It's something I've always done, anyway, as I still do some consulting occasionally, and good to stay up to date. I do have Linux set up as well on a spare i7 6700 machine. Sometimes even game on it. As RTX 5800 kinda sucks with older games, depends on the totle, though. With 20 actual cores, sometimes unloading PhysX to the CPU is a good thing.

Having just watched the video, I don't blame you at all.

Microsoft Windows Agentic AI Malware | ChrisTitusTech

A break down on the "agentic AI" stuff Microsoft is working to throw into Windows 11... Very informative, and definitely something I wouldn't want at all...

Recently I heard of malware which installed a VM to hide itself.
This feature I expect can certainly can be enabled should malware decide to do so.
Yes, that is something very scary.
They barely accepted the pushback against Recall, but still didn't do all that much about it.
And this is more they are refusing to take user feedback on.

I worry it is going to take some major exploitation of it before they act, at which point the damage will have been done.
But would they even then, since there is a history… See More

of this, both from their own products, and others, such as recently Crowdstrike where they don't do much, if anything at all to resolve the causes.

Maybe they should stop using "AI" to do their coding

Yes, Windows is broken - Microsoft Admits - OC3D
Microsoft admits that Windows 11 has been broken since July and has only now acknowledged the problem. Yikes!

Maybe they should stop forcing updates

In full agreement with the sentiment in the article.
If they can't fix what is broken already, they can't do it with their ever more determined push for AI that we aren't asking for.
I will at some point when I can, get a second PC setup with Linux.
There are enough issues with recovering/reinstalling Windows without complicating it with dual booting.
Microsoft interferes enough already with user choices in its own OS, let alone it maybe doing so with another one.

So I got Bazzite installed onto my moms computer. All she does is play Skyrim with a few mods. The most annoying thing was getting Vortex working lmao. BUT because of a tutorial I saw on that I got Mod Organizer working on my system as well installing it through Steam with the Proton Experimental layer!

With Windows 11 becoming the kind of mess that it is and Steam giving us a Linux-based gaming handheld and mini PC, I really hope more modders would start supporting Linux.

If I was on good terms with family, I would have tried to do a basic Linux PC for my parents, who have needs for just basic browsing, office apps and media consumption.
I could certainly see trying for something locked down to minimise support needs.
Possibly an immutable distribution.

But ofc, that isn't how things worked out, so my own needs will be very different, but I certainly see the appeal of such a system.
