The book referenced here, “Bullshit Jobs” by David Graeber is a great (if maddening) read, I would highly recommend it. This article is referencing Graeber’s “system” of weeding out “bullshit jobs” built upon in that book.

These people should be in prison for murder and forcibly sterilized.

I wouldn’t have read this without the publicity about this case, so if this wasn’t a shady attempt to force a Streisand-effect for a sales boost then I hope it creates one and everyone reads it just because they don’t want us to!
Completely enshittifying Notepad of all things is certainly a decision. Of course you have to be logged into a Microsoft account to produce these summaries, which I would assume are then used to train the AI or sell or some combination. I can’t wrap my head around why anyone needs this functionality in Notepad, though.
“Besides AI summaries, Microsoft is testing the ability to view your recently closed files in Notepad.”
Hah.

As far as flavors of Linux, I would honestly recommend using VirtualBox while on Windows. You can download a preconfigured VM of just about any Linux distro or download whatever iso you want and install in a VM. This gives you some freedom to play around and break things (and you probably will at least once) and get more familiar with the different desktop environments, software installation, command line, searching for how to do things etc.

"Since 2019, Prince has been accused by four women “of either assault or sexual assault.” One of Prince’s former partners filed, and later dropped, a lawsuit against her accusing her of sexual assault. Molly Hensley-Clancy of The Washington Post wrote that “Prince asked two women who later accused her of domestic violence to sign nondisclosure agreements, according to police records and an ex-girlfriend. Prince also threatened legal action against women who have spoken about her on social media”.
“In August 2024, one of Prince’s former girlfriends, Olivia Stabile, posted a series of [TikTok] videos accusing Prince of physical and verbal abuse. Included in the posts were accusations of Prince shoving her to the ground and threatening to sue Stabile if she were to go public about the incident.”
“In January 2025, Prince and an ex-girlfriend were “involved in a physical altercation;” Prince sustained a black eye.”
