It’s not even casual internet surfing anymore. While looking for a job several months ago, I had to create a new account on every. Single. Fucking. Application.
I never used Workday - why do you need different accounts? Are there per-account limits you need to bypass? Or do multiple companies use their software and you need a different account for each company?
The latter. Every time I have to job hunt, it’s mentally exhausting from how frustrating it is. I have over 90 logins to various job sites and that isn’t counting the ones using Google login or the ones I just let my browser save and I never copied to my password library.
If I ever have to job hunt again I’m printing out paper resumes and hitting the pavement like it’s 1980 again.
Me, reads comments: Man there’s a lot more of the ‘college ain’t nuthin’ but debt and a piece of paper’ people on Lemmy than I thought there were.
Ya’ll are just trying to overcompensate for feeling inadequate about not going to college. If you don’t go, don’t go. It’s not for everyone. But don’t shit on and downplay the people who have the talent and ability to do so.
“It just teaches you do be a useful tool of the machine!” yeah that’s exactly what someone who didn’t go or shouldn’t have went to college would think.
I don’t understand the hatred of OneDrive. Your documents folder redirects to the OneDrive folder. I guess you have a piece of software that has the documents folder hard coded? Be mad at that software.
I haven’t used Windows in a few years (and never used OneDrive), so pinch of salt time, but…
I don’t like the idea of M$ having direct access to all of my files and personal data
That and, there have been mishaps with OD deleting files
Also, i personally don’t like software automagic, especially when i don’t understand what is going on under the hood
Is OD just a folder? Where are my documents actually stored? What happens if my internet goes out? How much do i trust M$ to not bungle something or sell or leak my files?
I want to have granular control over where my files are stored. If I want them stored in the cloud, I want that to be a choice I consciously make, not something that’s defaulted at the operating system level.
So the hatred isn’t really directed at OneDrive, it’s directed at the fact that the operating system is making decisions for me, and they don’t line up with what I actually want my computer to do.
If it lost your files after constantly fighting you about where to save them, you would.
Plus the whole not asking to install, then begging for money to upgrade a service you never asked for. Until you finally have to waste hours learning how to completely disable it and get it off of every machine you own…
in all honesty with the options you have available these days, and easy options at that like installing Linux Mint or Windows ReviOS I don’t think people have any right to complain about windows. When installing Linux is just as easy and actually EASIER than installing windows then just switch already. “but my windows programs won’t work on Linux.” Guarantee you most will as long as they’re not named adobe. Hell you can even run .exe’s on linux now.
at the very least use ReviOS so iti’ll remove onedrive, copilot, edge, etc. But there’s no point in complaing about onedrive or copilot or the ads or them tracking you when you can switch your OS.
my daily driver is a laptop and I haven’t had any issues with drivers. I have an Nvidia GPU and it’s been fine. if anything you can partion out your drive and give a linux distro a go to see how you like it. Linux Mint is painfully easy to install. I’m on CachyOS which is a little more “advanced” but not by much and it’s just as easy to install.
nope, haven’t had any issues with wifi. in fact it works better now than it did on Windows. On windows every so often I’d have to reinstall the OS simply because the wifi stopped working regardless of reinstalling drivers.
On linux haven’t had that issue at all and if anything it’s more reliable.
Do I look like I know what a got dang is I just want a hotdog of a gribble. You tell me what about accessories and accessory because Alamo propane is like a got dang ladybird I tell you what
Yeah, some of the computer science theory I learned occasionally comes in handy when I’m reasoning about problems or when I’m picking apart some spec. My husband who attended a code school instead is a perfectly apt developer, but he struggles more. College also just gave me the time and resources to get a survey of knowledge outside of formal coursework. On the job, I tend to go more in-depth on topics closely related to the job.
That’s just an NTLite build, if you want to uninstall those things do it yourself (either with NTLite and an ISO or through command prompt like any other software)
You can disable it in the registry. H key local machine, software, policy, microsoft, windows, OneDrive, disable sync value change from 0 to 1 and it will turn it off. I may be a little off this was just from memory.
