This must be the new version of Fedora
Wait, did they mess with fedora, too?
No.
You mean, no, not yet
It's a shame that Fedora is also the most usable linux desktop distro
Red Hat edition?
It's a bit more than $15 for RHEL
That's exactly why we need to give them the boot.

Hard disagree. If you're running something business-critical, the support that you get with a RHEL license {or any other vendor, for that matter) is worth its weight in gold.
If you can't fix something, you don't want to be looking for solutions by sifting through forum posts directed at home users when the business is losing thousands of dollars per hour. That's what the license is for, and that's what you pay for.
Even after paying, windows sells our info, every keystroke.
Any proof? Kinda seems like major privacy violation if it sold our keystrokes like that.
Cortana enhanced program, enhanced tipe writing, voice recognition. Maybe they don't sell it directly, but the register every move.
Again, proof? Articles? Anything? Pretty bold statement without evidence.
Their own installation process tells u about it
Am I missing something? This article is 7 years old & mentions nothing about keylogging
Is it really that bad? I haven't used it in years so I'm not following it. Do they literally have a built-in keylogger?
Definitely not, that would be an absurd privacy violation
Microsoft does collect a lot of data. But storing every keystroke is first of all impractical, because it would take a lot of disk space to store every keystroke of every user, and secondly not very useful unless they also knew when, in which application, and in what context each key was pressed.
Ahaha, privacy. Yeah.
I mean yeah itβs not exactly a private OS but a key logger would be mental
Yeah I guess it was hyperbole but I wasn't sure
Think about it practically. Microsoft is not an advertising company, they make their money from enterprise software. Windows is installed on billions of computers. The infrastructure required to accept and process every single key pressed by every single windows user and turn it into something usable would be enormous. And for what? To make a few extra millions by selling it to some advertising company?
Microsoft is an advertising company just like Google, Meta, Amazon, and Apple. Bing search and Edge browser in Windows are a few ways ads are shown to users. Netflix is using Microsoft ads network for their platform to show to their subscribers. Companies pay a lot of money to get preferential suggestions/queries on their stores and search engines.

Microsoft generates over 10 billion US Dollars per year in revenue from their advertisement division. The revenue growth from their advertisement business is growing exponentially at around 10 percent every year.
Fair enough, I didn't know they actually operated an ad network outside their own services. I still don't think they are keylogging everyone though
The bad ending.
I'll wait for Linux Millennium Edition to come out first
More like Linux Year of The Desktop Edition
I heard it is buggy, I think I'll wait for Linux Vista to be released.
The right license in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. So, wake up, Mister Torvalds. Wake up and... smell the ashes...
paybuntu when
Pay 2 Win(dows)
I'll give it about tree fiddy
God Dammit Loch Ness Monster, I ain't gonna give you no tree fiddy.
Is anyone have oem keys, just asking.
It's ok. I have the crack.
Good, but what does it have to do with Linux
FXLinux?
