maybe in a future video, if evidence surfaces. This is what I get for not snapshotting it to hold a grudge

## windows
[//TODO: screenshots, or mockup, or cut this paragraph]
You know what finally tipped me over the edge to give up on windows, even if that meant PC gaming went with it?
I was playing warframe, and then windows 10 popped up a full screen ad - on a monitor I couldn't see at the time - that told me "you said you'd sign up for a trial of our cloud bullshit now." I couldn't figure out why the game had ostensibly frozen until I walked around my apartment to sit back at my desk and read this ad, and as ever communicate one of the microsoft-sanctioned responses of "yes I would love to right now" or "yes I would love to but not right now".
No flavor of linux has ever pulled a stunt like that.
[//TODO: find this meme.]
there's a joke about how microsoft shoved windows 11 (and also 10) down everyone's throats, then popped up a window in their way to ask if they would recommend windows to a friend? the joke for socially well-adjusted, normal people is: "I need you to understand that people don't recommend each other operating systems." That applies, for them. But for nerds who are currently staring at several screens running several different flavors of linux... People do. But the people who do... understand how terrible windows is, and the myriad of ways it's only getting worse.
[note] Speaking of, don't worry, I don't (presently) have plans to evangelize for my favorite operating system.
