I have a trash internet connection so I just play whack-a-mole with internet privileges. Windows update? No. NVIDIA? Not a chance. Google? How is that even on my computer? But also nah.

Turns out most things use fuck all resources without internet

But what if I really want to :(

If by radio you mean the music device, no. My jap import cannot pick up aus stations. If you mean radio frequencies for phones and others, hopefully someone else has the answer haha.

My home laptop has an uptime of almost 30 days at this point, who needs a power button?

People have been saying it's unwatchable for years and I can barely see the difference

Some people (like me) are lazy and don't wlreally want to do it if it takes more than 5 minutes. I doubt I could even download a VPN program in that time lmao

Whatever it is that checks for tpm obviously needs tpm, or it wouldn't need a work around

If w11 changes something that relies on tpm, and you don't have tpm, surely you can see how that could cause a significant issue?

As someone who has a good windows laptop at home, windows at work is actual garbage. We had a month where you just couldn't use the search function, because the act of typing in the search bar caused enough problems it would close the search bar.

Odds are your home computer is somewhat competent and your work one is a steaming pile of trash not fit for purpose.

Don't literally all car manufacturers spy on everyone all the time to an ungodly degree? Not saying it's a good thing, but Kia and Hyundai aren't different here.

Need a bigger phone so you can hit it with 2 fingers instead of one :D

Depends on the game you play. M.2 vs Sata SSD isn't a huge deal for game, but either of those vs HDD on a game with actual loading times is a brutal difference.
