Can they just fuck off already? I sign into windows like once every 2 months and every time it’s different and a worse experience. All my customizations using built in menus get messed up too and the shit that just shows up without asking. “We put the search back on the start bar!” Like fucking actually why?!
While I am using AtlasOS (Windows with bloat stripped off), it still kinda behaves like windows in someway compared to Ameliorated which doesn’t have Microsoft tracking and updates anymore.
I woke up in the night and stared at my PC at around 3:00am and suddenly my PC starts from the suspend. I assume this is a way to update Windows secretely but I never asked for it and it damaged me emotionally because my devices behave in unexpected and unpredictable ways.
I used atlas for a while but there are a number of issues. If I want to flash reverse engineered firmware to proprietary hardware it often requires patched windows tools leaked from the manufacturer and I haven’t had that work any other way than stock windows. Capitalism with no real consumer protections has fucked us in so many ways.
I’ve never heard of AtlasOS until this comment. I read the documentation and it’s interesting that they need you to install it using a fresh Windows ISO. I wonder what they are doing that can’t be accomplished on an existing Windows installation with a bunch of Powershell scripts?
Well, it wipes things. You can do and risk it but this approach is more dynamic and free than the old approach. Distributing an ISO, which counted as illegal too.

I learned to always shutdown.
Atlas is an insecure mess, not a real solution for Windows problems. Consider a Windows alternative.
I am visiting this mess only to play Half Life alyx and some other VR games.
I am full time Linux everywhere. Even on my Chromebook which doesnt have ChromeOS anymore.

Ah, there’s your problem.
