minus-squareLouSlash@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up50·18 days agoSome time ago i checked some polish stores to compare W11 vs Linux / no OS prices and i found out that the difference isn’t flat and it’s actually about ~10% of product price (so the more expensive the notebook is - the higher the price of W11 is)
minus-squareLeninOnAPrayer@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up36·edit-218 days agoWhen https://massgrave.dev/ exists it’s even worse. I think this tax on tech illiterate people is getting too high. Should I start selling USB drives for $5? I don’t wanna encourage Windows. But I feel bad for the normies. $211 is insane. MS literally allows massgrav on GitHub. They have for years. They do not give a fuck. Paying for windows at this point is a normie tax. And it’s gotten too damn high!
