  • I’ve tried that far too many times with both W10 and W11. Microsoft always finds a way to re-bloat. I’m pretty sure they have a team dedicated to making sure you get a bunch of bullshit bloat, and to find work arounds to however you removed it.

    Way less painful to start over with LTSC and then forget about keeping on top of bloat, AI, and telemetry.


  • Im here to spread the good word for those who need/want to still use Windows, look up W11 IoT Enterprise LTSC.

    Things it doesn’t have: Recall, copilot, ads, cortana, TPM requirement, secure boot requirement, ms store, XBOX and gaming services.

    Once it’s freshly installed, it’s like a fresh XP install, naked. Can even group policy to turn off all telemetry. It’s fantastic for gaming.

    Since they refuse to license it to just anyone, check out massgravedotdev.


  • If you decide yes, I highly recommend Fedora Silverblue, or any of the distros based on silverblue/ublue. I myself love Bazzite for gaming.

    Those are atomic and immutable, meaning you cannot easily break core files, and every single thing can be updated in the app store. It’s the windows equivalent of not being able to modify/delete C:\Windows; and getting firmware, drivers, applications, and Windows updates all in one click using the Microsoft Store.


















  • Thank you for the reminder to go listen to his new album! Skimmed a few articles that say it’s outstanding.

    Edit: I’m back after a full listen through, start to finish. What an absolute banger of an album! The Best Eminem. Feels like a short time machine journey to the early 2000s but with modern references. Now I understand why at the end of the meme it’s all angry faces, lmao.
