          Oh it’s subscription based, ok. I have a flash drive for that. Helps me erase the OS and put a whole new one in.

            EDIT: damn I feel like I should get hired by Microsoft or some other sh#t company because I’m getting good at this anti consumer crap

              Bro this notification popped up, and for a couple of seconds I didn’t see that it was lemmy, I didn’t remember this convo, I just saw the anti-consumer corpo speak and I almost lost my shit. I was straight up furious and I hit the notification to come in here and verbally crap in your mouth.

              So yeah, you should look into a career with Micockssoft 🤣

        The good old 2000s when you could host and successfully distribute any virus disguised as something popular by slapping a _full, _HD or .rar/zip (or any combination) at the end of the file name.

        I used to look up lard bread and there was a hit for lard bread_full.rar on the first page.
