Thread 106236244

You either die a Windows 7 user or live long enough to become Linux Mint user.

I hate 7iggers as much as anybody else with a job and a life - but seriously loontroons, reflect on why they'd rather use a dead, 17 year-old OS than your IoT lightbulb OS.

Windows 7 loses Firefox support in 35 days. Tick Tock Duck.

You either die a Windows 3.1 user or live long enough to rice xmonad

Agree, and it only depends on when WINE will have better compatibility than Windows 7. For now it's still very very far.

>>106236303
Not with VxKex.

I tried NixOS, today. I don't get it

>>106237304
no one does. nixlang is shizo keyboard slamming. just focus on editing your config.

You reminded me how I used to do technical support for a very old man whom I had to guide through a very painful XP -> 7 transition.
I was wondering how the fuck was I supposed to migrate him from 7 to 10. And then he died.

I've found "insert disc/mount ISO, double click setup.exe" has worked pretty well since Windows 2000 or so.

>>106237847
Yeah, for me, not for him lol
Dude was pissed because his window customizations wouldn't translate 100% from XP to 7 even with the classic theme.

what if you are employed and use windows 7 at the same time?
>dead, 17 year-old OS
as you have implied already, it still does better than linux
>>106236303
r3dfox, supermium and thorium exist though

>>106236244 (OP)
Windows 10, 11, and Ubuntu user here, I tried 7 for a few months and got bored and replaced it with Ubuntu.

more like vekek

using a meme fork is not going to save you baby duck. What if those forks stop getting updated, what are you going to do then?

All those meme forks still work fine and for some reason cause exceptionally huge clitty leakage among people obsessed with someone's choices in regards to operating system.
> What if those forks stop getting updated, what are you going to do then?
Highly doubt that all of them will stop getting updates at once, but then I will just start using regular firefox with vxkex I guess.

>>106239029
Abs when vxkex stops getting updated?

>>106239050
*and

How long Y'all think I can go w/o antivirus?

>>106239096
0 days

>>106236303
they will extend support for another year

>>106239113
Erm acqeaulaly i have had this installed for more than 0 days/./.

>>106239096
>no antivirus
not only are you stacking zero-days you are also catching malware and trojans like pokémon

>>106239133
Are these malware and trojans in the room with us right now?

>>106239065
will probably use browservice then, although old browser versions should work fine for long time in this case, since a while ago I tried a pre-sse2 release of firefox and most websites worked after changing default UA. Honestly we can just play verbal ping pong like this day and night. You will ask "what if X stops working", I will respond with "I will then use Y" and so on, but I don't think there is a point in it, since the situation in which all of those legacy-oriented projects would die instantly is less likely to occur than finding urinal in women's bathroom in early 70s.

>>106239096
i've managed without microsofts spyware tool for a year now

0days affect up to date software as well + security updates don't matter if you are not retarded (don't expose your computer directly to the internet and don't download sketchy executables and you will be fine).

And only some of the software I like to use works on it. Ubuntu and Win10/11 are far better for my needs and uses. I did enjoy how hyper fast 7 starts up. You'd think it is a modern device running a modern OS.

Because they're Mexicans who are too retarded to use Linux

Linux Mint is trading awfully long to implement HDR.
