Windows 11 is getting out of hand with its push for advertisments, frankly - remember the recent full-screen pop-up to persuade users to install Edge or other Microsoft services? Then another advertisment was placed in the Start menu, and now Microsoft has finally worn my temper thin - with a new Game Pass ad coming to the Settings app.
This will likely arrive in the July update for Windows 11, or at least it’s almost certain to do so. It was present in the latest preview update Microsoft just released for the OS (and quickly paused due to a bug, but that’s another story). It’s also worth noting that the ad has been present in earlier test versions of Windows 11.
For what, may I ask? Can you give an example? I’m on Debian, arguably a less friendly distro than most, but I haven’t had to touch the terminal in two weeks. And it was just to ping a server somewhere, something you need to do on the command line in Windows as well.
How about setting the default audio device?
How about changing the default power profile?
Just for starters…
Why the hell would you need to open the terminal for any of that? It’s in your settings
It’s not
What’s your distro?
Yes it is. You seem reluctant to tell anybody which distro you’re using (even downvoting the person who asked), probably because you know they’d point out that it is in fact there.
Below I’m showing you how it is on my laptop running GNOME, the most used desktop environment. It’s similarly easy in KDE Plasma and Cinnamon. Even the more niche DEs like Pantheon, Budgie, XFCE, and LXQT have had that functionality for many years.
Change audio devices
Switch power profile
Bonus switch power profile
I really don’t know why you’re lying about this. The terminal is not something you’d ever need to open for this.
I’m “reluctant” because I’ve used a dozen of them. None of them had this option. No sense in wasting time arguing about something I already know you can’t do.
I did not say how to change them. I said how to change the default device. Not sure why you feel the need to lie about this.
Every time I turn on my PC it defaults to the wrong audio device and the wrong power profile and I have to change it back. I can Google a dozen different commands that do nothing but give me some sort of generic error.
That is changing the default device. When you set one that’s what it sticks to. Same goes for the power profile.
Why are you lying?
No it does not. Not after you restart the machine.
Why are you still lying?
You’re the one that’s lying.
I literally proved you a liar for both of your points lmao
