Complaints about Windows 7

| tech | software | microsoft |

Honestly to my surprise there are not many. I got the wireless card situations fixed and now I am enjoying using this computer. It is nice to have three computers. A lot of people ask why the hell does anyone need three computers in a 1 br apartment. But you would be surprised how many uses you can find for them.

My only real complaint so far is minor but still serious. I hate how windows holds your hand. Every time you try to do anything other then surf the web it asks if you are sure.

I understand there are certain situation in which the every day user can cause some serious damage by clicking on something or opening a file that should not be opened. But those are few and far between and I really wish that – they would just let you use your computer. I always feel like big brother is watching me.

I guess it does not bother most people – but after using Linux for all these years where you can do whatever the hell you want. It is just strange.

I give kudos to windows for widows 7, I do not regret getting it, and I have not yet had a moment where I just said “fuck it, im going to install ubuntu.” :)

Our cloud-exit savings will now top ten million over five years

We finished pulling seven cloud apps, including HEY, out of AWS and onto our own hardware last summer. But it took until the end of that year for all the long-term contract commitments to end, so 2024 has been the first clean year of savings, and we'…
