What else could you possibly use? Mac? We all know mac is too expensive. Windows is the cheapest option. Nothing cheaper. Yessir. They're not fancy -they just need a simple Windows license and some up-to-date, current gen hardware to run that display...
e: (/s, because even the most obvious sarcasm seems to need a label)
A custom made Linux distro that starts a x server with a single program open would probably do it
i don't even think it would have to be custom made, just install arch or something similar
Oh golly. That sounds like the devil's work. (/s)
Looks like people are downvoting you because they don’t understand sarcasm. This is why the whole /s thing started on Reddit.
I hate the /s and could not have made it clearer otherwise... 🤷 At least you got it.
Can't read that, the moire is too strong
I think it's complaining that the setup isn't found, maybe trying to update or repair?
"The process entry point 'GetUserDefaultGeoName' was not found in the DLL "
At least they let you uinstall onedrive
Over and over again...
My policy editor says otherwise.
