Microsoft was criticized for the tactics that it used to promote its free upgrade campaign for Windows 10, including adware-like behaviors, using deceptive user interfaces to coax users into installing the operating system, downloading installation files without user consent, and making it difficult for users to suppress the advertising and notifications if they did not wish to upgrade to 10. The upgrade offer was marketed and initiated using the "Get Windows 10" (GWX) application, which was first downloaded and installed via Windows Update in March 2015. Registry keys and Group Policy settings could be used to partially disable the GWX mechanism, but the installation of patches to the GWX software via Windows Update could reset these keys back to defaults, and thus reactivate the software. Third-party programs were also created to assist users in applying measures to disable GWX.

Thank you guys for the likes on my other post and I'd like to show you another screenshot but this time the graphics are Super HD (What the game says), unfortunately choosing this graphical setting will make some collisions stop working properly.

I used to play this Roblox game back in 2017 but was broken in Mid-2018 due to the deprecation/removal of legacy physics solver. I miss this game...

I have finally solved Minesweeper.

(And my very first win in my life for this. )

I ran Minecraft Java Edition on this Chromebook running Ubuntu 23.10

I installed ChromeBox firmware to get Ubuntu or any OS running on this laptop

The render distance is at 4 chunks with fancy graphics
