Microsoft stoops to new low with ads in Windows 11, as PC Manager tool suggests your system needs ‘repairing’ if you don’t use Bing

Turned on my computer yesterday and this popped up. No option to decline. I had to go into the registry last week get all traces of OneDrive out. It's worse than just ads; it's also forcing its other products. Like: Bitch, I'm just here for your OS. Fuck off with all your neediness.

Struggling to tolerate wife's haircut

I'm a white straight cis-woman who hates my hair and would buzz cut if it were more socially acceptable. It's not a gender thing; it's a tactile-sensory thing. I dislike it on my neck and face and hate the cost and experience of monthly maintenance to keep a cute pixie cut. A good hairstyle (by good I mean one you feel good in) definitely matters. I'm doing my hair longer now to get it in a pony tail. Don't love it at all, but while it's was growing out I felt frumpy and depressed. I would feel more confident if I could buzz mine without this stigma. If I were more courageous I would but the last time I had it very low people were judgy and to me it's wasn't worth the reactions.

But I don't think your post is actually about the hair cut. There's a lot of feelings you both your ends on what it means and what you think it means but may not. A healthy relationship IMO needs to talk about these openly. Even if you find you're growing in different directions, if you love her, try to support her being authentic to herself. You may find your relationship can be stronger for it.
