REDEEM

Fuck it im staying on win7, fuck your AI botnet

Also fuck linux

>>518881244 (OP)
for only 1 year?

>>518882020
Fuck you too

I had a Windows 7 black edition or something like that. It would autoinstall from a USB stick and had everything tweaked. I can't find the download anymore.

>>518883197
Stay mad.

Windows 10 cost me $300 cdn. Windows 11 was free. (still is)

>>518881244 (OP)
>At no additional cost if you are syncing your PC settings
That's a weird one.

>>518883872
Why is it wierd?
You have something to hide goy?
ITS FREE

>>518883197
Retards should not be allowed to criticize Linux without using it for a month, works just like Windows

>>518883197
Both Linux Mint and Bazzite Linux are surprisingly easy to use.

>>518884263
>just like
Preposterous lie.

>>518884263
>>518884326
you linux fags are worst kind of retards
you use linux as talking point
normal people use windows for acutall work
not all of us use computers to only jerk off on hentai and watch animes while wearing fedoras and posting on both reddit and 4chan
When you say
>i use linux
everyone with brain know you just use linux to talk about using linux
you are doing nothing else with it apart doing self-flagellation daily to have most basic shit things work that any other OS does by default
You are fucking retards.
Win11 users are lesser retards than you
get out of my thread rats

>>518884704
>normal people use windows for acutall work
Yes saaaar, retards use Windows for work.

>>518883693
And why is that I wonder.

>>518884704
99.5% of you don't need it for anything except spread sheets, text documents, e-mail, web and calendars.

>>518884704
TRVKE

>>518884956
>99.5% of you don't need it for anything except spread sheets, text documents, e-mail, web and calendars.
Yep, and LibreOffice does all of that already for free without spying on you and selling your data to advertisers.

>>518883197
I switched to PopOS on my gaming rig almost two years ago, works just like Win except you have to manually mount slave drives the first time
you're just a retard

>>518884704
have fun using proprietary software nigger, btw i installed linux server on 5 small business, not a single security instance, they were hit in the past with ransomware because their previous IT was a nigger installing windows server.

>>518881244 (OP)
saar this is extremely racist you bloody

Just instal w10 ltsc IoT if you can't let go.
Even the w11 Ltsc Is customazable to the point that its basically just w10.

I'd recommend learning to use linux though. You need to be a retard if you cannot figure out linux mint.

When your rig has its own CPU power supply, what difference does throwing an extra hundred bucks at microsoft make

>>518881244 (OP)
Actually you should just use Linux. It's an actual gift to humanity.

>redeem
DO NOT REDEEM!!

>>518883197
Had a chuckle but handling of audio in Linux is leagues above Windows, you can pull off some dark magic shit when you need to with either pulse audio or pipewire. I have had small issues but they are never as obscure to figure out as they are in Windows assuming you have equal familiarity with both systems. I can debug and fix audio problems almost instantly on Linux with my rather complex setup involving combined audio sinks.

>>518884704
>windows for actual work
LMAO no, unless you do some paper pusher shit with Office suite that does not require any deeply technical things. Otherwise it's Unix or nothing because any use of CLI is vastly superior, meaning Mac is fine too to a degree besides lacking optionality in many areas. Windows has obstacles in it where there should be none.

>>518882794
Just torrent a new one

>>518882642
linux mint

>>518885857
Solidworks alternative on Linux
GO
Thought so

>>518881244 (OP)
I would have paid them to fuck off with their updates when they rolled out.

>>518887536
you dont have to pay them you can manually block all updates on win10
not sure if you can roll them back but to stop them was non issue since win10 release
you can also kill or kill almost all telemetry on it.
Not such case with win11

>>518886660
Try running it in Bottles

>>518881244 (OP)
I just enrolled for free, wtf, I thought I had to pay for the extension?

>>518887822
>Try
this is linux mantra
fingers crossed professionals?
windows mantra is just do the work in the tool that selfinstalls

>>518886660
FreeCAD, OpenSCAD? Took me a second to look it up. OnShape is browser-based so it works either way. If you want a workflow and UX identical to a specific tool that's a (you) problem.

>>518883197
Literally the only reason I stopped using Linux was because university (and later work) had people using shit like excel or docx files, and I didn't think their windows machines would handle any of the libre office formats. At this point I would jsut compromise and say we all use google sheets instead as a brownserless alternative. MS only has office, nothing else. My linux distro was ubuntu and it ran just fine. It's literally the popularity of windows that makes changing from windows a difficult thing to do.

>>518888543
its like you told me
use paint instead of photoshop

>>518881244 (OP)
Wtf is Windows?

>>518889261
linux that actually works apparently

>>518888543
Oh and it turns out you can apparently run AutoCAD via browser.

>>518888936
That would be GIMP, which is pretty good. On the other hand, imagine having an OS and not having a decent shell or means to install software directly and instantly. Or even safely, due to inherent lack of verification, no wonder professional environment is plagued by malware wherever Windows is applied.

>>518888717
Libre can both open and save MS-specific formats, luckily.

>>518887804
It would have been less work, and therefore less expensive, to just pau them a fee to fuck off.

>>518890152
>Libre can both open and save MS-specific formats, luckily.
Right. But then you need to send something back to someone who uses windows to assess it, and that effects either your grade or your job. It's just easier to stick with what the boomer knows and uses, since they unironucally matter more as they control your job/grade.

>>518883872
They want everyone to stop using local user accounts so their data is uploaded for training. I've got win11 on a newer machine for lack of supported alternatives and it is fucking incessant about logging in to jeetsoft online account

>>518890152
Nono
this is what you did
I asked for solidworks on linux
you gave me options that are on linux
those option compared to solidowrks are the same as if i asked you what is unpaid alternative to photoshop on windows and you came here and said its paint.
As shitty nothing paint is compared to photoshop, the alternative you recommended are same shit compared to solid-works.
Hope its clearer now

>>518881244 (OP)
>buying winblows
only is the west

>>518890474
Read your own post, you specifically asked for ALTERNATIVES. Also I'm pretty sure there's plenty of people preferring GIMP over Photoshop, doubt it makes sense to be smug here. No one wants to suck Adobe dick if they can avoid it in year 20 fucking 25.

>>518890441
How does it affect your evaluation if the result of your work is the same and the formats you create are compatible? Sounds like some boomer bullshit indeed.

>>518881244 (OP)
I'm still on 7.
Fuck niggers and fuck Shill gates.

>>518881244 (OP)
You can get free windows and office for life with a single command btw

>>518881244 (OP)
Don't redeem any updates. Stay with whatever os you have. Make Microsoft collapse from their own hubris. Simple as.

>>518891553
do you understand that alternatives for solidworks for linux that you reccomended are as bad as if you reccomended paint as replacement for photoshop?

>>518883197
lmao
after 20 years you still have to do all that shit to just get it running at all

>>518892125
Now that you worded it like this, yes I do, thank you. Well then it sucks if even something like AutoCAD doesn't cut it, remember touching it years ago and it felt alright. sounds very odd to have only one piece of software good enough for the whole big realm. With that being said, if I was locked to a particular proprietary toolset I would still pick Mac over Windows, especially for things like graphical design, audio work or video editing.

>>518892914
Thats the thing.
When you have all encompasing monster of a software you do not need alternatives. Everything works for everyone and nobody is complaining.
Thats why windows have like 3 versions of windows in use and you have 50 new daily distributions

>>518893408
Not to imply CAD specifically, but when you have a piece of software that has too many responsibilities, getting one broken feature can mean downtime in many areas instead of one. Plus if you let someone have means to grab you by the balls via excessive centralization, they absolutely will do it- again have Adobe as an example. At least smaller companies learn the hard way once they start bleeding money for bullshit extra expenses.

Extended support is free for me. I'll stay on windows 10 until genshin is EOS, or until z-brush works well on linux.

I got a mac yesterday. It's great. I still use gnu/linux and I have VMs but I love mac hardware.

>>518894134
you pirate it and what is there to beak?
You got so used to everything catching fire every day you think this happens on windows all the time as well
No
You install Solidworks and work, nothing can break in it, it is what it is, always, today tommorow everyday.

>>518883693
I think both copies were $8.99 from cd key place. Just need to get off the resellers who get them "to bring into china" and then turn around and resale.

>>518894873
OEM keys were always dirt cheap.i had like 20 of them from buddy that builds computers, just gave them all away, they have like thousands of keys every year

>>518884704
Enjoy your Shitdows 11 then.

Also if you want to have security updates till 2030, install windows 10 LTSC, and activate it with some MAS scripts

>>518894981
what is that?

>>518885612
It's not about the money.

>>518886660
Haven't found a good one. I have an airgapped W10 CAD workstation just for this reason.

>>518894278
Mmmm

>paying for windows literally ever
surely nobody... does that right?

Why not just use a custom Win11 without telemetry?

>>518895122
The entire LibreOffice suite available on a default instalation of the most barebones version of Mint tha could run on a machine from 2010.

>>518895644
you understand that flexing with office is like boomers flexing with pressing power button?

Why not just run a custom Win11 without telemetry?

>>518887804
Browsers will eventually obsolete you if you don't have the security upgrades when they update browser security features

>>518895565
>>518895992
you cant shut it down like on win10
>>518895335
looks so its not just solidworks, linux is graveyard of good programs
their makeshift replaceemnts are like playing bootlegged chinese nuantendos

>>518888335
You can receive my extension little lady

>>518895740
Oh man if only you could just open the software manager and download any flatpak you wanted oh man oh fuck it's too hard :((((((((((

>>518896000
i will just run VM with windows11 on laptop or some shit

>>518896211
unpack solidworks and you got 1 more linuxtard in your army

>>518896149
so what isnt shut down in custom versions like ghostspectre or Tiny? They have all the slop disabled

>>518896287
You're willing to use a VM so you can clearly use that or a wine/proton layer to run it.
Problem solved.

I stuck with win7 years ago when i saw how on my normie friends PC the troondows 10 had downloaded a tranny flag to the start menu during tranny month. Also the candy crush ads felt like another gross violation.... god normies are disgusting how they put up with this. im sure 99% of them wont hesitate updoooting. gotta protect from those hekkin virusinos afterall. Same type of people that wear the masks.

>>518891553
I use photoshop cs5 look at me

>>518896710
i could as well type this with 5 meter stick from another room but its much more convenient to just sit infront keyboard
if we are talking about running solidworks under emulators

>>518894681
>pirating the software used commercially
That can be a very expensive mistake, but I can accept that your country might still count as the wild west in this regard.

And anyway, I'm not talking about stability of OS around the tool when responding to you, but tools themselves specifically. But have at it, what you say makes no sense when people get buttraped with Windows updates regularly or MS accounts brick things while Linux distro close to desktop specifications is fit for server environments and can have years of uptime until a security patch requires a reboot. Not even a remotely close comparison in terms of reliability until you introduce the bleeding edge approach.

>>518896892
local programs are not live servivce, i think you are missing the point, i can go and install solidwoks on no internet computer, it just works, will work 1:1 same as it did on any other computer, nothing can break

>>518881244 (OP)
I can't imagine still being a Windowscuck in 2025. Linux is actually good and easy to use now. I don't even remember the last time I had a major issue on my Fedora desktop.

>b-but Red Hat is bad too!
Yes, but at least they aren't as powerful as Microjeet.

>>518886660

if it's good enough for the US military it's good enough for you, too.

>>518896211
Cheer up

>>518884263
>works just like windows
You still can't even properly install most distros on a lot of laptops without being hardwired in - due to the distros never shipping with wifi drivers pre installed for some god-forsaken reason. Way too many mandatory drivers still need to be installed manually.

Linux has gotten better, but distribution managers are still way too autistic to make it "simply usable".

Unironically the SteamOS is pretty good for people switching over from windows. Only thing I can't get to work is streaming services (for my gf), but I can just plug my phone into the TV and use samsung DeX. I haven't tried any banking through linux but again, I can do that on my phone

>>518897109
just checked the site...
kinda explains state of US army recently
also consider this
army uses subpar free shit to charge who knows what amount for declaring paid software packeges in finanscial reports

>>518890441
>But then you need to send something back to someone who uses windows to assess it, and that effects either your grade or your job.
I never had any compatibility issues with libreoffice and the xml-zip type of msoffice document files (like docx).

nigga wtf

ITS WAS GOOD FOR THE ARMY IN 1980s
why are you linux fags this faggy i dont understand

>>518897715
don't @ me until you tried it

>>518897000
Large sprawling programs in general do have lots of connectivity and interlinked dependencies involved, that was my point. And speaking of Solidworks, I wouldn't count on it staying the same if there is monopoly at play.

>installed software will work the same way each time
Just wanted to say Windows is really worse at this than Mac or Linux due to the way it optimizes for performance, it just doesn't like dealing with heavy programs. And then throw .NET menace and registry fuckery on top of it.

Sometimes Linux works out-of-the-box with hardware. When I tried it on my desktop PC, all of my hardware worked.
Linux can be difficult when you have to do certain things on it though. Sometimes it will cost you hours of your time.

Next time I "upgrade" my device it will be Linux and amd , Intel is dead and so is Microsoft never again will i buy anything with this even installed WINDOWS 11 PRO AND ITS WORSE THEN A +25 YEAR OLD WINDOWS XP fuck Microsoft to HELL i could go on and on about problem after problem when you pay top dollar for the best/close to the pinical of supposed hardware just to have it shit all over because the operating system is fucking garbage
