I pretty much use all the modern stuff because I have to. Like the cheapest path to being future proof.
It feels like windows 10, I got mine looking like Windows 7. The security and amount of control is going to change.
They are funneling people into a more controlling environment. The trusted platform module, the cessation of support of older OS. Eventually they want everything encrypted through your Microsoft account, and want everyone even on junky computers to be using modern windows with the TPM for modern encryption.
I don’t have time to care about any of this though, I just got to future proof up, and be able to do my art work. I’ve achieved that. I got two computers with windows 11, tpm2.0 and 16gb of ram. Also the modern SSD, I think this is also needed to be future proof, everyone is using them.
