Re: so update to windows 10 [Re: Adolin]
    #21757899 - 06/03/15 03:53 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

I don't like 8.1 and wondering if 10 will be better but I just started getting used to this OS and the privacy issues can only get worse.  I try not to think of these companies as sinister but giving away windows can only mean that your personal information is less secure, why else do it? 

I still use a local account and not a ms account on my home pc in hopes that it will make my information harder to access but recently I've begun to realize that there's no difference as long as I'm on windows platform.  Anybody here have a preference for MS account vs. local account on 8.1?

I'll probably try 10 on my laptop but won't getting it on desktop for a while until there's some real feedback.

Being a huge PC gaming enthusiast, I strongly disagree. You know DX11 has been out since 2009 right? It is 6 years old. That is a long time in the computer world.

Microsoft said they learned from the mistakes of 8.1 and 10 was supposed to be sooo much better everyone said..

All the previews I've seen of 10, it looks like it has the same exact same backwards retarded fucking UI as Windows 8.1
The retarded fucking half touchscreen metro UI that made an attempt to reinvent the wheel and be more like apple and failed miserably

Win 8.1 was five steps backwards compared to 7. Almost everything was made more difficult to do, power tools are all hidden away, safe mode can be overriden by a fucking windows update, it makes shit ten times more difficult to accomplish anything.

If 10 is ANYTHING like Windows 8 I will probably not have any fucking thing to do with it.
The only possible reason would be for DX12 support. But we'll see

Maybe for consoles.. because consoles are always lagging years behind PCs.
Games are already being produced with DX12 support, we will start seeing them very soon.
Consoles yeah, will probably be like 5 years behind like usual.

I hope Windows 10 is as awesome as Windows 7 was but with all the functions of a linux based system and new shit for the year 2016.

That's what I was hoping for. It looks like that's not going to be the case. It looks like they used Windows 8.1 as their starting point, and didn't change much.

I hope I'm wrong.... but it looks like Windows 10 might as well be called Windows 8.5.

I don't feel like having all my favorite programs broken either.  I recently purchased Directory Opus and that's been the biggest improvement to my windows pc pretty much ever, highly recommend.  I am learning to use linux but since I'm such a noob I don't think I'll ever be able to abandon windows entirely.  8.1 will have to be it for a while. Currently tooling around with Linux Mint when I have time.

Windoz is crap on a stick. We are (almost) forced to use it because of compatibility issues and so on. I was offered a choice between 8 and 7 when I got my new computer 3 years ago and I picked 7 because of the better reviews. Sounds like I dodged a bullet. I will not be quick on the draw to try 10.

What happened to windoz 9? Didn't 9 sound spiffy enough?

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835)

If they called it Windows 9, some software designed to check the OS version in a stupid way would mistake it for Windows 95 or 98.

I will update no matter what since some Unreal Engine 4 games will require it.

if you can't play it then it can't be very epic can it?

when all the "windows 10 required" games massively bomb, people will wake up to this bullshit.  no need at all to make a new OS, just patch dx12 in, dx11 could have easily been patched into windows xp along with the 2 or 3 other things windows 7 added
