It absolutely is a thing, at least, I'm a happy dual-booter for 10+ years now. Microsoft doesn't, at all, make that hell. They don't give a fuck, which is a different thing - that means that in some cases, they bork the other

Or, they are opting for convenience. Why bother with the OS, when it does the job, and there is a myriad other aspects of a person's life?

I agree, this is nothing unlike a bad human relationship. The problem with ChatGPT is the same as with the larger Internet itself: it doesn't belong unrestricted into a mentally underdeveloped person's pocket. Forums also egg or b

I agree, but developers don't have freedom over the product. Product managers are the ones who have a say, and even then, they are in a strict hierarchy, often ending at "shareholders". So, many of the wrongs come from the sy

I disagree with this. I mean, it's as straightforward for me as you wrote it. But, 1. It hasn't worked like this when they elected Trump for the second time. Back then Kamala should have been the only valid candidate, according to

Web searches like Google are great when searching for not exact terms, like synonyms for example. I have never encountered a website that has a search capability like that. Google finds the song "Million voices" by Otto Knows, fro

Of course, it's still a piece of shit Windows. But I have basically copied the list from multiple third party sources, so, what got listed are actual features of the LTSC. And I think it's better that what's achievable with d

Take a look at the article I attached. Windows 10 itself is getting updates, that's not a problem, waning support from software vendors is.

Win 10 is getting deprecated. I use my install still, but I personally don't recommend it as a new install. https://tech.yahoo.com/gaming/articles/youre-still-gaming-wi...

Win 10 is already becoming past tense, despite it being updated for security until 2032. In the present, I don't think Windows 10 is a good recommendation anymore. When installing a new system, I'd just go with the 11. https:&#x2

I'd love to see data regarding maintenance. It's nice to debloat once, but does the debloat stick? How does it interplay with updates? Can I count on the script being updated for 1, 2, 5 years?

Yes and no. No, because sometimes Windows cannot be reasonably substituted, to no fault to the user. The usual suspects, multiplayer games, some software, when you need complete interoperability, etc. By the way, that 95% is lower actually.

I think the regular Windows versions are not worth it. Sure you can debloat the current configuration of the system, but it's a continually updated product, so it won't stay the same. Configurations will be overwritten, components

You are right that I should give this topic a rest.

He sent that message many times, and the message was received! We all got it, all of us who are powerless against it, and all of those who can take advantage. Repeating it doesn't bring anything new to the table. Regarding this topic,

Thanks for the reminder. I was so heated that I in fact forgot that I can flag the thread.

I rather suggest Win 11 LTSC. The Windows 11 IoT Enterprise 2024 LTSC supposedly: - doesn't have the tpm requirement - no copilot, recall, edge browser, ms store - allows local setup - no feature updates, only security - built-in optio

You're misreading my point. I'm not trying to stop this information, I'm criticizing the editorial choice of repeating this kind of story over and over: both for the BBC, and for HN. In its form, I think it doesn't do th

You are very right. In fact, it worked me up so much that I haven't remembered that I can also flag the article, as the guidelines suggest.

I would personally trade that hypothetical chance to not have to look at this piece of news, and especially for everyone else not having to look at it too. I think this would be a net positive for the short term, and I think that it wouldn&

I bet that would attract the attention of the patient and their loved ones! But, patients are also sick of their own ailments too. And I also bet that relentless cancer coverage would affect a cancer patient more negatively than positively.

Thanks, I'm meaning it especially in the HN sense. I'd expect HN, and frankly, new sources as well, to focus on trends, larger pictures, context, education. Minutiae are entertaining, but distracting as well.

I don't see why this is newsworthy. The guy has a 26,000-word Wikipedia article just about his lies only. I don't see why every one of his insane utterances must dominate the front page of every English-speaking news site. His det

Gaming on Linux is great. I do it on PC and my Steam Deck handheld, on my laptop, with Steam, Heroic Launcher, and sometimes plain Wine. For anti-cheat multiplayer stuff, I reboot to my Win 10 LTSC, and that's about it for my Windows u

This is such a weird experience for me. On my phone, I instantly notice going back to 60 from 90 hz. But on my computers and handheld consoles, I don't mind, or even notice, at all.
