    Recently had a work order where her windows os was on a drive that was 100gigs. No matter what you removed, it would fill again to the point it couldn’t even update.

    Looking online found there can sometimes be windows update dump folders up to 30 goddamn gigs.

    That’s a lotto memory cards.

    I get it isn’t the same type of memory but thats not funny

      Huh, I used win 10 with 128gb SSD for a pretty long time, it’s not a problem if you use it just for microsoft office and Firefox

      There definitely exist craptops with 64GB of emmc storage, and they can’t update past a certain point. It’s hilarious but also such a waste of everything involved. Thankfully Linux exists, but less than thankfully these still take minutes to boot into Ubuntu or any other distro.
