How so? Please explain?
Windows 10 monitors your activities on your computer, which it then reports back to Microsoft; they make no secret of this, but instead of calling it spying, they refer to it as "collecting telemetry data". It's basically the same thing Google does with all of their products; including your cellphone. It is also of note that shutting down the programs responsible for this activity on Windows 10 is possible (for the moment at least), which does results in a notable increase in both performance and stability.

And everyone should know nearly all us Military systems use Windows 10. Most likely with that program removed.
And how does one remove it?

Personally I use a program called ShutUp10; I installed it on my handheld computer, the GPD Win 2 which runs Windows 10, some years ago and used it to shut down everything I didn't want running on my computer, which was quite a lot. I can only assume the military's IT department uses something similar to secure their instances of Windows 10; because I can assure you, a stock install is far from secure.

We basically modify our computers so only our IT people have the ability to download things onto them, as well as grant you access to them, as you cant access our NIPRs without getting permissions.

We have an very secure network.
So yeah, we don't use stock.

Also, Cyberpunk is fun as fuck

As someone who has to deal with Win10 at work, yeah there's a lot of data it wants to pass on. And that's the enterprise version, I'm sure the home version is even worse.

Going to bring that app up with my boss to see if would help us.

Not gonna lie, the game had a huge surprising twist to it.
Also, you can do a lot before the title screen. Easily 3 to 6 hours before that if you go and do everything. Perhaps more

Ah, thanks for the clarification, it's good to see they carry on in their own way in this regard.

Noooooo
Title title screen. As in till they show the logo.
Basically you have a prolouge then another prolouge, then you have the real meat of the game.
As in it takes 3 to 6 hours to get past the prolouge of the game.

How many side quests are there?

There also arnt really cutscenes. And damn near every dialouge scene is skipable. It is a damn good game

Infonite technically but so far I have done roughly 5 or 6 and that is not even the tip of the oce berg. One can do side quests before even getting past the title card. A LOT of them too.

I just posted a few days ago in the World of Warcraft general thread how Shadowlands became the best selling PC Game at launch of all time.

That apparently only lasted a few days.


Cyberpunk 2077 had eight million preorders which was enough to help the developer recoup its development costs as the game launched and immediately put it into the Black. Already it far surpasses Shadowlands release sale numbers. But it will likely increase several million more on top of that as more normal purchases are tabulated.

The development team will be receiving their full bonuses despite earlier statements stating their bonuses would be connected to the games overall critical review score. This'll be in addition to profit sharing and the paid overtime they acquired during their Autumn development crunch.

Well, they are a medium-sized studio. Their rep is important for their survival.
