Microsoft Bombards Windows 10 Users With Full-Screen Ads for Upgrade (theregister.com) 118

Posted by msmash from the no-mercy dept.
Microsoft has expanded its campaign to migrate Windows 10 users to Windows 11, deploying full-screen ads urging users to purchase new computers ahead of Windows 10's end-of-support date. The ads, appearing on Windows 10 devices, remind the October 14, 2025 cut-off date for OS support.

        Apple just stopped support for Monterey so I updated the 2014 Mac Mini I use as a server to Mint 22. It works fine. I wasn't sure the Intel graphics could run Cinnamon, but it does just fine.

        • Most desktops are only really using the graphics card for blitting, alpha, maybe scaling, and possibly mipmapping. Compiz does all of those things, but also has optional 3d effects, and there are multiple 3D Window Managers these days. But Cinnamon is probably only really doing those first four things with the GPU even if you turn every possibly piece of eye candy on. The first three of them have been done by virtually all PC graphics chips/cards since the early nineties.

    But the company that owns us now have decided our big growth phase is over, time to digest us. The first thing was moving us to Outlook.

    • (3) It sets to en-us, hides the EULA page, the registration screen, online account nonsense, and more.

What you call eNgAgEmEnT I call busywork and wasting the user's time at best, but feeding someone's addiction for more eNgAgEmEnT is usually the goal . Google and Quora are notibly big offenders in this regard. I want to get stuff done as easy as possible and as fast as possible. And I don't want my searches to be filled with irrelevant and unwanted shit that is put there to keep me "eNgAgEd". These crack whor...sorry, companies ar

  • Would 9/11/2025 not be a better cut off date?

    I bought a Windows laptop last October. A Pain.

    Next days, when I have time I flatten it and put Linux on it.

    Any suggestion about a distro? I consider Mint. But I have no preferences.

    The first time I nuked Windows 11, but was able to get Windows 10 installed, which was less annoying. This time I added a s

  • How about a Sweepstakes on what is next for Windows?

    How about the YouTube business model. Force users to watch an advert video before a program they launch actually runs. Follow up to a 'pro' version for an extra monthly subscription fee which features less ads.

  • When my biz ancient Deb 12 laptop died -- and, interestingly, took its SSD with it -- I had a Win 10 machine I used for scanning around and used it. 11? Not with all I'm hearing, so I'll probably do the modern "you are not on the machine you are supposed to be" dance with the biz sites. My own fault but worth it. Scanning? Got Vuescan v6 years ago but wanted a driver, not to read a literal book of features to use it effectively. Dug out my registration and updated to 9 the other day and I think after nearly
