@nixCraft - of course it is still a good time to abandon MS's products and install Linux!

@nixCraft - if you watch the video you will see that it wasn't really Microsoft that requested the video taken down, rather it was just removed by Google's AI driven monitoring system.

@nixCraft

@nixCraft They’re doing it so they can shove AI down everyone’s throats.

@nixCraft they should not put Windows 11 on older hardware, you wont have a good time. They should install Mint, or some other easy to use Linux distro.

Oxford languages' definition of the historical part of mercantilism :

"mer·can·til·ism :
-HISTORICAL :
the economic theory that trade generates wealth and is stimulated by the accumulation of profitable balances, which a government should encourage by means of protectionism."

I would add : " ...against any values of respect, empathy, kindness, and honesty."

@nixCraft Thankfully, just did that very thing to a friend's machine before they did that!

@nixCraft I wish new idea replace YouTube

Microsoft is about to learn about the 'Streisand effect,' lol. They never learn. At this stage, why even bother with Win 11? It is like an abusive partner that keeps you in a relationship with all sorts of manipulative techniques. That is my honest opinion. Just end relationship with Win11 and Microsoft products for your own peace of mind.

@nixCraft And also time to put videos in other places than YouTube.
