@teameffujoe You want Saudi style payouts without Saudi style state ownership. In the US, private companies own the oil. Taxpayers subsidize drilling by $35B/yr, drillers export profits, and we pay global prices at the pump. That is the actual scam.
@DukesJarOfFun@davepl1968@Microsoft NVM, missed the part where 25H2 kills all local account creation. So now we’re forced to use a Microsoft account just to log into our own machines. Perfect... https://t.co/VdPYBXprGs
@DukesJarOfFun@davepl1968@Microsoft oobe\bypassnro got nuked in recent Windows 11 builds. Microsoft killed it.
Use this instead: start ms-cxh:localonly after pressing Shift + F10 at setup.
@SJFriedl@crisisofconsc I’ll top you with interaural cameras and USB X-ray sensors. Nothing says “great product design” like a $12k device that relies on a non-replaceable USB cable, goes out of warranty just in time, then charges $4k and $150/month to keep service/warranty, really "rent the sensors."
After looking at the numbers, owning the games I actually play this year costs $353.83 on Steam. Even with Game Pass now $198 annually, I’d rather spend the extra $155.83 knowing I own them outright and won’t get price-hiked again.
@108DRAGONSTV@PorkPoncho Facts? Nah. Choice matters. I dropped 2 subs because I’d rather pay full price and pick my games. Forcing bundles isn’t value, it’s waste. People wanted options, not extras they’ll never touch. That’s why folks are leaving.
@XboxGamePass Paying $60 a month for 2 Xbox Ultimate accounts is insane. That’s $720 a year. I was already on the fence at $503.76 a year. Thanks, Xbox, you just made canceling the easiest choice of 2025.
