For anyone who still needs Windows, I recommend you try the Windows 10 LTSC IoT variant.

It has support until 2032 and has all the bloatware ripped out. It’s extremely good.

They even have a Windows 11 version. That’s also really good. But I’m guessing if you’ve avoided upgrading to Windows 11, you’d prefer to stay on 10 anyway.

I like it!

Would you characterize reactOS as exploitive?

The wrong X died

He would always deliver to me :(

That boy ain’t right!

I guess it’s at least more environmentally friendly

I don’t actually know haha I just saw it and liked it

You mean like where 80% of our population is?

Per capita it’s insanely lower than the personal cost alternative.

I know that they only recently got opengl support and it was pretty primitive so I would imagine they have some work to do on the GPU side

Dependable and available public transit is the answer to our transportation needs with electric vehicles substituted in areas where public transit presents implementation challenges.

Electric cars cannot be the backbone of our system if we look to reduce emissions and environmental hazards to a level that allows us to continue existence as we know it.

Within any adminstration there will be things in and outside of their sphere of influence.

What’s often attributed to Biden himself can often more accurately be attributed to his cabinet as a whole.

When people say it’s not their fault they often mean the issue at hand needs a Senate resolution which will never happen because it’s controlled by the Republican party who has a “do you enemy no favors” policy whenever a democrat is in office.

Now this is what I call thinking outside the box

7600x and 6950XT over here, all I see is red!

Ahoy, matey!

Fucking hate capitalism’s need for infinite growth, flat sales means you’re doing exactly the same as you were doing last year, if it was sustainable last year it’s sustainable this year

Especially for a company that is little more than a platform

Can confirm this works

Still isn’t the legal definition of theft. It can morally be in your opinion

Sorry guess I should have been more clear. All of your examples are opinions as in not demonstrably fact.

I don’t particularly mind any OS one way or the other I’ll use the best tool for the job. What I’m saying is a bad take are your proposed scenarios on piracy and ads which there’s no evidence to support, in fact there’s a lot to the opposite.

This would make what you said an opinion and by my point of view a “bad take”. Does that make you wrong to express them? No and I never said as much.

So I guess I just lost the thread on your point because all of those are just opinions. I was just using a colloquialism. Which brings me back to my point that usually when I see people get heated it’s because people are being bigoted.

Testing people like that is not a great if your looking to dissect a viewpoint sounds more like being inflammatory, especially with your word choice.

Opinions can be bad takes. See > your examples.
