This just in: broken clock is right twice a day.
He's literally wrong. You can set up windows 11 devices without a sign in.
While being wrong about this, the idiot forces sign in to use twitter...
Wow, I wonder about his opinion on stubbing your toe.
Cool yeah, no one wants to have to log in with a Twitter account either.
Who gives a fuckingdickleshit about this asshole
No one. These are just bots shilling.
How about we go a step further and say that I don't want to have to sign into ANY online account to access my computer.
If I disconnect my Ethernet cable, I can still log in and get work done. That should be the absolute MINIMUM that is expected of any operating system.
Linux is sometimes a royal pain in the ass, but it's for precisely that reason that it's important that it and Foss options like it are supported.
No one wants to log in to look at twitter posts either
No one wants to ~~log in to~~ look at twitter posts either
Not really a contraversial opinion.
Wow so bold!
Buy Microsoft you fucking coward
The entire global economy is held together by Excel. No thank you
I'd be happy. But too late to make Windows 10's name Windows X, so it probably won't happen.
He can rename it Windows X11 and piss off everyone
Lmao
I also hate having to login every 10 minutes to another windows password shit because hey it's secure!
Oh shit now Elon is going to try to buy all of Linux.
I'm going to log in with a burner Microsoft account on unactivated Windows 11 to spite both assholes.
You don't have to. It isn't required. I setup end points everyday with local users.
Business class is a different license. Likely enterprise or volume.
It requires some registry or command line crap to deal with it on consumer grade Windows.
This shithead posts the stupidest shit and people make it viral.
I understand how people are fucked up about that
Wait until he uses Geforce Experience.. oh boy. Every time it makes me log in AND THEN VERIFY MY EMAIL.
Luckily AMD cards (and their control software) don't have this requirement.
I legit haven't used GFE since they began requiring a login to use it.
He's an idiot. You don't have to sign in to windows 11 to set it up, I literally do this daily. Not to mention corporate computers shouldn't be seeing the personal computer sign in screen to begin with unless it's in the hands of IT like me who would know what to do with it.
There used to be a skip button until about a month ago. Now, you just have to input bad creds and move forward.
Unlike Twitter, which actually locks down most of its site without an account...
Idiot just doesn't like getting called out for his idiocy and hypocrisy.
Oh, there’s no way Elon wants a machine with a company image on it.
He probably bought a Win11 S-mode laptop, not knowing what that was.
Peak journalism
The more funny part of this statement is he's too fucking dumb to Google "set up windows 11 without Microsoft account" and follow exactly 3 steps to bypass the OOBE wizard.
To be fair, the option is pretty easy to miss for someone who isn't technical. Font size -11000 and grwy or whatever, though I might exaggerate.
No. Its pretty easy to work around. He just went right to twit to be a special baby boy.
