Don't Know About Windows 12… But Windows 13 Will Have A Battle Pass

Oh look, it's the dystopian timeline where Microsoft finally stops pretending and just puts a literal paywall on your operating system! Windows 10, 11, 12? Sure, they're all basically the same thing with rounded corners and more telemetry. But Windows 13? That's when they go full supervillain mode with a subscription model that makes Adobe look generous. $19.99 monthly or $190 annually just to CONTINUE using your OS? At this rate, they'll probably lock the Start Menu behind a premium tier and make you watch ads to access File Explorer. The guy's face going from mildly concerned to full skeleton is honestly the perfect representation of watching your wallet slowly disintegrate every time Microsoft announces a "new feature."
