I’ve been asked all these questions in my job search in the last 6 months. The questions I imagine you’re skeptical about like have you ever been depressed or abused drugs do come up often. Not in the initial application but in the required personality test.

That TMZ “documentary” was fucking gross. Obvious right wing propaganda.

That option only shows up when you set up Pro edition unfortunately.

You’re right, it was in S mode. I had to create a junk email address to unlock it. The original account was an admin but it wouldn’t remove S mode without an MS account.

I’ve had 2 instances where the Shift+F10 method didn’t work on a Windows 11 Home edition install. 1 was a brand new HP laptop I set up for a friend. It came with a bunch of bloatware so I created a bootable USB and reinstalled the OS. It didn’t pull up a command prompt when I tried the command no matter what I did. The second was at work. I accidentally let it update during the setup and afterwards it accepted the bypass command, but still never gave me the option to log in without a Microsoft account. I have a feeling they’re phasing that option out for Home.

At least Pro has the domain join option. Still it sucks that Bitlocker gets set up automatically and associates the key with the first Microsoft account you sign in with.

Or the inner monologues that last 2 or 3 minutes but supposedly only last a few seconds in the show’s universe

Nepotism(hiring unqualified friends and family) is far more rampant and way more destructive than DEI policies ever could be. DEI policies may help unqualified people gain low level positions, but with nepotism it’s usually high level positions.
