- Microsoft removes guide on converting Microsoft accounts to Local, pushing for Microsoft sign-ins.
- Instructions once available, now missing - likely due to company’s preference for Microsoft accounts.

Honest question: What does Microsoft expect people with no Internet access to do?
People with no internet access obviously don’t exist.
They added telemetry. 100% of responses had internet access.
Beauty.
That’s just science.
Microsoft learned the right lesson, everyone has internet! \s
I see what you did there.
Flawless statistics!

Afaik, it’ll just use a cached login
I travel. My Internet is off until I activate my hotspot. Whatever MS is doing, it ain’t worth it to me. I went all in on Linux (I use PopOS btw) a couple years ago.
