MODERATORS
Some people are saying this is good, but Microsoft recently changed my default search engine to bing "In case it was accidentally changed or changed by another program". I have zero faith they won't abuse this, they are becoming ever increasingly pushy about using edge and switching to bing.
It doesn’t seem like your computer, does it? It’s like you’re a user in their enterprise.
Haven’t they recently renamed “My Computer” to “This Computer” on the desktop?
"Our Computer"
"The Computer"
"The Nintendo" points at Xbox 360
Like the USSR, but somehow shittier, and expensive. And Theres human piss and shit on the streets because we don't let the poor sleep in abandoned buildings.
