Used an ancient tool i found on github 5-6 years ago to disable Windows updates called WUmgr, still using Windows 10 and last update was sometime in July, the program works as intended, have no plans to update to last version of windows because this one works just fine and will keep using it until i finally switch to Linux.

I took this approach at windows 7's end of life. Eventually you will notice little things breaking, then there will be a watershed moment that will drive you to linux very suddenly, so be ready for that. In my case, it was Steam and Firefox completely breaking simultaneously.

Honestly there's not much that's holding me back from switching to Linux, i don't play that many online games, just Warframe at the moment which is kinda disappointing because it's mostly f2p and they still don't have Linux support and i mostly just play it on and off lately because 7 years is a long time to play 1 game, i mostly enjoy offline games and most should work on Linux, the only one that is worrying is S.T.A.L.K.E.R. G.A.M.M.A. and it could run better on Linux but i'm too lazy at the moment to switch to Linux completely, i do have 2 laptops and 1 old PC running Linux Mint and it's a surprisingly smooth transition, so yeah probably going to delay it till stuff starts breaking then switch and be like "i should have done it sooner".
