daftykinsgotta keep my adoring fans happy, too...17:50
zxm-pi...6 hours of cable running. worst wifi evar! :-P18:14
daftykinsnah just termination, their sparky had to do all the hard graft 8D18:14

webpigeon[m]Heh23:21
webpigeon[m]'That looks like a Ubuntu iso... Er... Don't do that?' we have wsl now... Why won't you just use that and be happy?23:22

webpigeon[m]I don't even get how they haven't been bonked on the head over the whole aggressively pushing edge if you want to set something non-edge as the default browser23:25
daftykinsit's pretty horrific, i have to keep modifying my clean install approach for victims, er i mean clients... to try and spare them from Microsoft Accounts, but they often still get lured in23:27
daftykinsthe best approach still tries to get you to switch browser back to their 'recommended' D:23:28

webpigeon[m]Cloud windows sounds like fun, although I can see that being an advantage for me personally 'if it's all in a VM, what's the harm of launching that VM from say... A flashed work machine :p'23:30
