You switch to Linux. Windows 10 was the last operating system from Microsoft that still allowed local accounts and no wifi connection.

Windows 11 no longer allows that and it requires an internet connection and a microsoft account to use the OS. You might want to use Windows 10 until 2025 and then switch to Linux or get a microsoft account and deal with Microsoft Recall spyware. KDE Plasma DE looks alot like Windows 10 if the UI is the problem. Or if breaking the system is a concern, get yourself an atomic distribution (VanillaOS, Fedora Kinoite, Bazzite, etc.) If you are afraid your games won't run on Linux, check ProtonDB and decide.

I use android, always have. I don't particularly like apple or their OS. If I see someone asking for help with their iPhone, I either say the answer if I know it, or I don't comment at all. I'm not gonna bust in and start telling them they should use android instead.

Maybe they like apple, maybe they have to use an iPhone. Maybe they are helping an elderly relative set up their new iPhone. But the reason doesn't matter. I either answer their questions if I can, or I move on.

Comments like this are why I can't stand the Linux community.

That's you. Everyone is different. I prefer to tell people my opinion. If you don't like it, you are free to ignore it.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Yes, you've already made clear what sort of person you are.

If you use Rufus to create a W11 Bootable ISO, you can check the Mods section and setup a username for a local account out of the box.

Ah yes forgot about Rufus, good tip! Never tested it with the current installer for Windows 11 Home but hopefully it still works fine.

[-] derpgon@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago

Worth a try, last time I tried it - about 3 months ago - it worked.

Destiny doesn't run on Linux. By far its best feature.

Shit life sucking fucking game

Buy a PS5. Problem solved. You can even link your accounts through Bungie so you don't have to start over.
