Why I use Linux, part 3,453,333
A woman has won $10,000 in damages from Microsoft for its attempt to upgrade her computers to Windows 10, without her permission.
I suppose one could argue that this is a reason to keep Windows, as you’d have a chance to win a jackpot from them in court. I prefer to be able to do the work I want to do, without harrassment.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

funny, I’ve been running Win 7 for years , never had a prob with the forced update to win10 , I just did not install the last win 7 update
“I just did not install the last win 7 update.”
This demonstrates why Microsoft products are really not good products to use. They have created a situation where you are encouraged to not run the most recent version containing the most up-to-date security upgrades (which with Windows are definitely needed considering the system’s poor design).
