I switched to Linux full time (I’d gone back and forth for a while) about 10 years ago when my XP laptop died.
I had access to Windows 7 via work, but I didn’t like how much telemetry was being sent back to MS…

Now I’m just imagining Pliny the Elder with access to TikTok:
Pliny the Elder, The Natural History - BOOK XXVIII. REMEDIES DERIVED FROM LIVING CREATURES:
The human bite is also looked upon as one of the most dangerous of all. The proper remedy for it is human ear-wax: a thing that we must not be surprised at, seeing that, if applied immediately, it is a cure for the stings of scorpions even, and serpents.
If a woman takes the first tooth that; a child has shed, provided it has not touched the ground, and has it set in a bracelet, and wears it constantly upon her arm, it will preserve her from all pains in the uterus and adjacent parts.

For Enterprise/Education you can disable the ‘recommended’ section entirely via group policy. Doesn’t work for Pro/Home versions though, from what I remember.
I don’t have a Windows 11 machine available, so I can’t get you the exact command, but this should get you there.
It should remove it from all users on the laptop, and (hopefully!) prevent it from coming back:
Open Powershell and run:
Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Where-Object {$_.displayname -like "*Copilot*"}
Copy the Package Name entry and run the following command, with PACKAGENAME replaced by what you just copied:
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online -packagename PACKAGENAME
It depends - are you Inigo Montoya?

It’s not my fault! The bigger boys tricked me!
Not sure I’d categorise us as a civilised country at the moment, but in the UK it’s a full week before your employer can ask for a note: https://www.gov.uk/taking-sick-leave
'Hmmm - what can I bring in return? No cool shiny things around here- ooh! Gizzard stones! They’re useful! Hope this one’s big enough ‘cause they’re much bigger than I am!’
“The devil told you that! the devil told you that!” cried the little man, and in his anger he stamped with his right foot so hard that it went into the ground above his knee; then he seized his left foot with both his hands in such a fury that he split in two, and there was an end of him.

If I look 10 feet to my left I can see my Insanity Prawn Boy plushie.
Yeah, I’m running LineageOS with MicroG, so I tried disabling Android System Webview as a test. ReVanced seems perfectly happy to browse/play videos (though I didn’t try logging out). The only apps I have that fall over without webview seem to be eBay and Amazon, so no great loss there.
How much d’you want to bet that Putin was waxing lyrical to him about Hannibal (the Carthaginian General and great military tactician), and the ignorant fuckwit assumed he meant Lecter?
