unless you get especial audio drivers from a shady download URL (usually used from pirating services) linked from the OEM vendors. Windows Update won't help. Neither SDI Tool Origin.
GNU/Linux works, HDMI output et all.
- pjmlp 1y agoI love how HN nowadays mirrors the Linux forums experience from phpBB and Slashdot days.
- anthk 1y agoBecause with NUCs if you dare to gasp reinstall the OEM OS, if the vendor it's gone, with Windows you might get a nice door stopper. You can get audio thru the headphones/speakers output, but that's a shitty experience for your living room. With Windows 11 it will happen the same.
- Agingcoder 1y agoUnless I’m mistaken windows 10 is end of life in 3 months so this shouldn’t be surprising ?
- anthk 1y agoBarely no one uses Windows 11.
- Agingcoder 1y agoI think about half of all desktop machines , since MS is pushing upgrades aggressively. Many corporate environments ( have already moved as well. https://gs.statcounter.com/windows-version-market-share/desktop/worldwide https://gs.statcounter.com/windows-version-market-share/desk...
- ForOldHack 1y agoNope. Win 10 is now a free year of support. All the way to Oct 2026. Thanks for pointing out mistakenly your mistaken. And is it surprising than hardware shills are pointing not pointing this out? You want Linux get a Thinkpad, and a mouse, and plan on replugging every time you wake. "It just works." Well guess what?
- Agingcoder 1y agoMicrosoft says it ends in October 2025. What am I missing here ? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-support-ends-on-october-14-2025-2ca8b313-1946-43d3-b55c-2b95b107f281 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-suppo...
