she doesnt even use a computer other than for work, and she claims it's inefficient that i've spent 2+ days setting up my new laptop.

gotta install all the software i use, figure out how to torrent and crack shit, install all the bios and software updates, set up printer and scanner, transfer a TB of files over to the new computer, set up my lightroom catalogue, get things backed up to dropbox, get windows 11 cleaned up to remove all the toxic bloatware and AI junk, etc

This is totally reasonable, Windows are total POS to set up. I use x1 carbons for everyone at work and i always wipe them, install an enterprise version of Windows and then have to reinstall any programs I want and often drivers, etc. just so they run properly without tons of bloat.

Once they're set up they do run forever without issue. Can't say the same for the few (different lenovos) that I just let them use straight out of the box. Those are universally shitty, constantly crashing, having issues with displays, etc.

I don't like the mac interface for business but Windows shit is so annoying im considering switching although now this liquid glass shit is annoying af too so who knows wtf to do.

Does Windows not have a transfer utility to just move all your shit exactly how it was from the old computer?

All of this seems unnecessary.

You are not a hacker. You are a middle aged Jew corporate schlub. Why the fuck are you installing your own bios.

Also why are you moving files. Do you not have cloud account?

She is right.

piracy is often the only way to own actual files that can't simply be changed or removed from a 'service' by a corporation. that should have been immediately clear to everyone by the time of the floyd riots, when companies started de-listing certain shows and programs and scenes for political purposes. HBO even pulled Real Sex from streaming in its entirety. 19 seasons, gone. not that i'd want to watch that shit, but it's illustrative of the broader problem.
