So much misinformation in this its hard to know where to start! When setting up a new PC, Microsoft encourages users to sign into OneDrive, and if you do, it may automatically sync your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to the cloud. But this behavior can be disabled easily, and you can use Windows 11 entirely offline if you prefer. Your files are still stored locally unless OneDrive sync is enabled. It sounds like your system was set to sync with OneDrive, which is why your files appeared to be “in the cloud.” But that’s not a limitation of Windows 11—it’s just a default setting that can be changed. You don’t need to rename folders or delete OneDrive entirely. You can simply unlink OneDrive from your account and change the default save locations in Settings → System → Storage → Advanced storage settings → Where new content is saved. That way, your files go straight to your SSD without any cloud involvement. Windows 11 isn’t a trap—it just requires a bit of setup to make it behave the way you want. Blackadder might call it cunning, but I call it configurable. Once you tame the defaults, Windows 11 can be as obedient as Baldrick—minus the turnips.

I have spent my entire adult life in the world of finance, so nothing surprises me anymore. I love to tell everyone, “I have seen it all.” But the 'shoot the messenger' drama on Friday was a new low in American politics. On Friday, Trump fired the Commissioner of Labor Statistics because he didn’t like the weak jobs report numbers. What? I thought only corrupt dictators and fictional characters from old Woody Allen movies did stuff like that. American presidents are supposed to be held to a higher standard. Trump simply doesn’t want anyone to know that he’s lying about the economy and tariff policies, which are both failing miserably. How can anyone simply write this off as “don’t worry, he’s old and just doesn’t understand”? The funny irony of it all? Trump wants Jay Powell to lower interest rates or be fired. However, bad job numbers will rally the bonds and cause interest rates to drop. That’s exactly what happened on Friday. However, for some reason Trump thinks Erika McEntarfer is a political puppet who manipulated the numbers to make him look bad. Sadly, he doesn’t understand that if the numbers were good, bonds would have gone down, and interest rates would have shot up. Unfortunately, Trump simply does not understand how the debt markets work. I have thought about this a lot over the weekend, and I’m not mad at the people who don’t understand the relationship between interest rates and bond prices. I’m mad at all the people who do understand how dangerous and historically stupid this man’s irrational behavior is and yet give him a pass because they have no spine. The Soz

So this is winning? Economists expect growth to lose momentum over the rest of the year. Forecasts of higher consumer prices and potential delay of desired rate cuts pose a threat to Trump's promise to lower prices, and could dent consumer spending. White House floated rebate checks for lower-income Americans, acknowledging potential economic pain. Unresolved Issues and Long-Term Outlook. Deals with Canada and Taiwan, and decisions for pharmaceuticals and steel industries are unresolved. The colossal issue of China remains. Many struck deals are verbal and unsigned. Trump's overarching aim to return production and jobs to America may have limited success. Long-time trading partners like Canada and the EU might seek economic and political connections bypassing the US. Long-term ramifications for global trading patterns and alliances are expected.

Yep, I don't care about what you care about, and the reason you've been on ignore for ages.
