Elon Musk Calls Satya for Support

Just bought a new PC laptop and it won’t let me use it unless I create a Microsoft account, which also means giving their AI access to my computer! This is messed up. There used to be an option to skip signing into or creating a Microsoft account. Are you seeing this too? You can get around it, hit shift + f10, type OOBE\BYPASSNRO, local acct magic Doesn’t work. That just reboots the computer and takes me back to the “Signup for Microsoft to continue” screen. Call @satyanadella for technical support. I just sent him a text

A screenshot of an X thread shows Elon Musk complaining that a new Windows laptop requires a Microsoft account, while another user suggests the OOBE\\BYPASSNRO workaround. When the workaround fails, Musk jokes that he contacted Satya Nadella directly for technical support, making fun of the absurdity of needing executive-level help for a basic setup problem.
