Windows 10 for free?

ok, following this link has sped up startup considerably. I did not increase physical ram, and restarts are now taking less than 1/2 the time that they were

If you're really worried about spying, then download this tool (it works for 7, 8/8.1 and 10).

I've used it to block some of the telemetry aspects of Windows 10 that I wasn't comfortable with. Works great. The only time I had an issue, is when I was trying to check something on Bing.com, and couldn't get to the site. Turns out, I accidentally blocked the IP's for Bing, so I just had to unblock them.

Unless you're a gamer, like me. Yeah, you can game on Linux, but the compatible games are far fewer, and getting them to work isn't always the easiest.

I'd rather be able to just play my games, than have to constantly fiddle with the settings to make them work.

Truth be told, Windows 10 is actually pretty good. I've been running it since last August, with very few issues.

I would leave that to you, I am sure you can come up with some cockamamie scheme that would give salvation to members of all religions, even atheists.

well then man up and state your case on the appropriate thread, or keep mocking God, and be kind to them what's kind to you, Flamer. Read some Paul and voila. Because agape is impossible. i mean, really?

And a modern game that won't run on XP?

I'll stick with what works. Linux requires too much work to configure games that aren't natively compatible, and Apple isn't even an option, since - once again - there are fewer games for it, plus you pay double the price for an Apple computer, versus a comparable Win/Lin PC.

Mocking you is not equivalent to mocking God.

I prefer to read some Elijah, especially the part where he mocked the prophets of Baal.

mocking is mocking; it is the opposite of trying to understand.
we say there are no atheists in foxholes, Flamer.
