Windows: we noticed that you kept the useless search bar disabled since 2015, so we sent an update that re-enabled it without your permission

For my "convenience" and because in this way they can show ads and clickbait

Also: I SET A FUCKING GROUP POLICY THAT DISABLES THE SEARCH BAR; WHY THEY FUCKING IGNORE IT???

Hope you don't play anything that uses Windows kernel-level anticheat 🫠

Fuck any game that does

I mean for sure but I play games with my nephews so for me dual booting Windows is worth it, and it's certainly something to consider when deciding how you're gonna set up your system, as much as that sucks.

I hope it'll change on games that do, or they'll set up a workaround for Linux, but for now if you care about a game that uses it, ysk beforehand so that you can decide whether to dump that game or dual boot.
