If you're still using Windows 10 and don't want to upgrade to Windows 11 any time soon you might want to sign a new online petition

Hell, I'm still running windows 7 on a machine. 10 is my newest and I just installed that a couplemonths ago.
I recently learned there are unpatched vulnerabilities in Paint 3D in versions of Windows 10. Christ knows what they’ve neglected to patch on Windows 7.
Have you tried a Linux desktop distribution on that windows 7 box? I can’t imagine you’re gaming on it.
Nope. Got too much it's used for to spend the days and days it would take me to rebuild it, then fight through the headache of setting up Linux, and finding replacements for everying it does.
This is the barrier Linux acolytes just can't understand. I have decades of experience, was working in IT before Linux existed. Had my Unix classes in college. And I can't be bothered, I've got other stuff to do. And I know the risks I'm dealing with.
Now let's ask a regular user. They see no advantage and lots of headache to switch.
For the love of god I hope that isn't connected to any network
It is. It's fine. Security isn't a single layer.
No it's not fine lmao
My music box is win7. Only reason it doesn't run on a Linux distro is the shitty lack of good audio under the hood of linux, and the annoyances of getting musicbee working right.
It's the only thing keeping anything of mine on windows. Wellllll, I did set up my laptop dual boot, and it came with 10 pro, but I haven't actually booted into that in ages.
And yes, for whoever is thinking "I hope that win 7 box is air gapped", it is. Transfers are from an external hdd.
