You'll have to reinstall anyway, since you can't "uninstall" the Store and stuff, it needs to not be there to begin with. LTSC ISOs are downloadable from MS. Its very similar to Server 2019.

That's exactly what you do. Find a guide on buying LTSC through a Microsoft partner. It's expensive but you can effectively install it many times. https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2167558-explicit-inst..

There's got to be other ways to get the drivers, usually the hardware is generic enough if you pull the PCI ids you can get them from Windows update or manufacturers' websites, right? Or is it all proprietary Samsung silicon...

No, I understood. But the value of a piece of art that is pre-signed by the artist, versus a print that was signed after-the-fact, is not the same. Some of the value comes from authentication. But if mass produced, this is not really more v

re: autographs because of the comment limit They're valuable because that meant the autographer had to be present and see and individually touch whatever was being signed. Often times it is a memento of a fan meeting their idol. NFTs h

It's not just art... It's why otherwise ordinary items have sentimental value. Like a specific stuffed animal, or a mile marker. NFTs lack an intrinsic to convey this that goes beyond the digital item itself. Having or looking at

The artist can sell numbered prints too. What I'm saying is that NFT _itself_ does not embody any aspect of the creative process or context. With the exception of the fact the artists issued an NFT in the first place on such-and-such d

That depends. If that sculpture survived decades or centuries and then put on display in a museum far removed from the ability to recreate that sculpture from the original molds, then in a way, yes, it is an original. However, if the molds

Here's where this analogy falls apart. The real value in having an authentic painting comes from the history of the piece, that it is the same canvas and pigments that were touched by the (famous/reclusive/dead) artist (or at

I don't think they're saying this isn't true. The primary takeaway from this study, for me, is that when a species gains the necessary "hardware" to create and propogate culture, it hits a tipping point, and then th

You can do it, you just have to know how. Basically, tell an ISV (like Connection.com) that you want a small business relationship w.r.t. Microsoft Licensing and they'll set you up. You might have to buy a few random CALs to qualify, b

My gut tells me this argument is too simplistic, but... this is it, basically. I don't know whether it's a cause or an effect. Maybe it's a self-feeding dynamic?

Interesting -- for the US "fingers" is reserved for breaded frozen meat that appears to be hand-formed (that is, not rectangular, but still likely machine-made at scale). Chicken fingers and fish fingers are commonly available.

Since IPv4 addresses are natively a 32-bit integer at the level of BSD sockets, it makes sense to allow curl to accept them without having it be re-parsed back out into a dotted-quad. Many tools and databases will store addresses natively t

Agreed, +1 This pattern goes beyond JS and is very helpful for supporting tests; you've already factored out your validators. There's always going to be stragglers but you can define and push in an extra check on the spot (i.e. us

It's a little tricky to buy, but anyone can do it. I also like that it gives you multiple activation keys out of the box. Unfortunately it's a little pricey compared to OEM; it's about $300.
