You should upgrade to Windows 11 now. Your Steam account is in danger.

not my problem

ask again after you learned to poo in the loo

>using pajeetsoft to begin with
When will you learn?

This year went by too fast
But I'm using Linux

>my PC can't be upgraded to 11
I guess all the e-waste warnings was a psyop if Microsoft can just arbitrarily decide that millions of PC's are obsolete and have to be destroyed because of "security"

>>720596543 (OP)
>Your Steam account is in danger.
My desktop computer running Windows 10 compromises the Steam Guard authenticator on my smartphone? How does that work?
That's a rhetorical question, by the way. I use Linux Mint so I don't actually care about what happens to Windows 10 machines. In principle I'm annoyed that Windows 11's hardware requirements will put a fuckton of e-waste in landfills, but in every practical way, I'm unaffected.

>>720596543 (OP)
I already upgraded because I'm not a mentally ill danger to myself and others.

>>720597160
thankfully, all of those landfills are located in india. in a way, its the circle of life.

>not getting the vacc- I mean installing windows 11, chud? THEN DIE. GO OUT THERE ON THE INTERNET AND FUCKING DIE. I DONT GIVE A FUCK. NOW GET THE FUCKING VACCINE.

Linux it is

>>720597456
goyim you can activate a different version of it in the bios

>A TPM (Trusted Platform Module) chip is a microchip on a computer's motherboard that enhances security by securely storing cryptographic keys, generating them, and limiting their use. It protects against tampering by attesting to platform integrity during boot-up and helps authenticate hardware devices through its unique, burned-in cryptographic keys. This hardware-based security is crucial for protecting sensitive data and ensuring that the system hasn't been compromised by malicious software or hardware attacks, even if the computer's operating system is stolen or compromised.
Whats the point of this shit if someone already has hardware level access to the computer? And any ransomware still runs just fine with a TPM chipped motherboard. Literal zero reason for this.

>check /v/ like once a day
>there is always a thread like this shilling windows 11 by saying windows 10 won't have updates anymore
Is microcock paying some pajeets to shill windows 11 on online platforms?

>>720596543 (OP)
In like a decade maybe

>>720596543 (OP)
What Steam account?

i even buyded a pro loicense.

No it's not, dumbfuck.

>>720597456
You don't need it, you can patch it out automatically with rufus. I don't have a TPM module, but one day, I was offered the free upgrade and it worked. Not that you should, do what you want, FUCKER.

>>720596543 (OP)

Why would this matter? I am on windows 7

Oh no, anyway.

>>720597456
linux can do anything windows can and is even better at some things
BUT it also sucks because its held together with shoestring and a piece of gum
like all of my games that worked on linux ran better, but there was also some shit like easy anti cheat not working for some games and non existent support for my sim racing rig

I disabled updates on Windows a long time ago because every once in a while some random update will make my computer run worse. I use a scriptblocker in my browser and don't pirate games besides old ROMs, am I really at risk? I imagine the Indians coding Windows 11 will break things even more frequently

>>720609101
>and is even better at some things
if you unironically use linux instead of windows you are basically throwing away money.

Meh, these will have to suffice

dumb question do i have to do anything? or do i just click upgrade and then it automatically upgrades?
im soooo lazyyyyy
i keep all my files and shit?

>>720609696
in windows it's optional, but in linux is mandatory. We are not the same. You are chained by your masters and have no other choice but to read the manual and then beg the devs on github to update a program they no longer care about. All you have is just the illusion of choice.

>>720609398
only in the newest raytracing sloppa and its like a 10% loss at most
linux shines in older games where windows dropped support

i just cant be fucked really, its a hassle.

>>720596586
how do you switch to LTSC without reinstalling?

>>720597282
vaxx status?

>>720610546
you cant
only thing you can do is try to force the extended updates but that wont last long

>>720597863
you got it anon
it's mainly going to be used for software DRM to fight piracy and track users between apps

>>720609834
You can do it in settings or install the installation media from their website and do a in place upgrade from your desktop without having to do anything with installation media

>>720610546
you don't

>>720596543 (OP)
What happens if I don’t even switch to LTSC? What I just stay on after October 14 and just buy a good antivirus? Will it work or will my PC be lost to a Russian botnet on day one?

I would use Linux if I didn't have to do rocket science to make everything work on it and also had a simple UI. Last time I used a Linux I was complete lost to find things like the Control Panel.

My Steam account hasn't touched a machine running W*ndows in at least four years.

How dangerous is it to keep using Windows 10? Should I be afraid?

>>720613714
Your PC will be vulnerable and exposed to ligma

You just have to copy shit into the terminal (if you ever used that powershell script to activate your copy of Windows or done a disk scan, congrats, you're qualified to use Linux), and most DEs are basically functionally2 rehashes of Windows 9x/XP/7. What the fuck more do you need?

>>720610546
Well at least you now know anyone bragging about it is a fucking piece of shit you can ignore. That's good to know.

>>720618171
i'm using gnome and i like it. it's the biggest DE and generally the most stable. i'd consider kde but i hate qt.

why would i need to update to W11? i have everything i need and nothing is going to happen if i don't

Thread was made by a Microsoft shill in an attempt to fear monger you into using their new OS that will make it easier for the Jews to spy on you without leaving any fingerprints, thread will be deleted in about 3 minutes now

>2025
>using Windows

Nah.

>>720618056
>You just have to copy shit into the terminal
Not them but yeah, assuming that your exact combination of problem, hardware, and distro has *already* been solved by someone else, you just copy some shit and it will maybe work.

Meanwhile I still can't use my bluetooth adapter with mint, despite it working (intermittently with a fuck ton of dicking around reconnecting and rescanning for the device literally 3-5 times like I'm entering the fucking Konami code before it detects the thing I want to connect to) on a previous version of the same OS, but now that I've upgraded the OS to a newer version, the bluetooth is completely unusable.

Sure, I could waste countless hours trying to manually install and troubleshoot a new bluetooth driver (and countless sub-dependencies) through the terminal since the "GUI software package managers" on any version of linux are outdated and nearly completely fucking useless. But at that rate, I'd rather just save myself the time/hassle and use a wired set of headphones, or use the USB passthrough feature of virtualbox to have a half-gimped work around in a virtual environment.

Oh and also, fuck everyone who thinks copying/typing shit into the terminal is better than using a GUI. If I want to change a multi monitor setup in windows, I just press Windows + P and then click either extend, duplicate, or whatever button.... In ShitFux I gotta type some bullshit fucking xrandr commands (WHICH ARE CASE SENSITIVE AND USE DOUBLE HYPHENS) for each. fucking. monitor. one. at. a. time.

Claiming this shit works "out of the box" is a fucking lie and users should not have to do this much troubleshooting for basic fucking functionality.

Linux is user hostile. Full stop.

>Press delete key with a document selected?
Instantly deletes the file, no confirmation dialogue
>Right click file, select delete, click delete?
Are you sure you want to delete the file? Gotta click again...

How much more ass backwards can this shit possibly get?

>>720620003
>xrandr
The faggot is still using X11

>>720620390
Forgot I needed to upgrade a bunch of technical horseshit to elitist standards in order to expect a fucking 'out of the box' OS to be able to handle multiple monitors without it being a complete pain in the ass in the year 2025

>>720620568
the problem here is that you are using mint, it's outdated as fuck.
there are two modern desktop environments on linux and they are gnome and kde, do not install any distribution that doesn't ship both of these.

>>720610546
What's wrong with reinstalling?
You back up all your important files regulalry... right?

>>720623354
>You back up all your important files regulalry... right?
nta, but important files are not on system drive, ever. But reinstalling is such a drag when you have a lot of softwares and you spent some time configuring your system.

>>720623801
To be fair, the common user only has a single drive, the one the device came with (usually 500GB-1TB SSDs nowadays). Buying and fitting in a secondary drive is the realm of wizardry for most.
As for the second point, I do agree to an extent. I spent about a day configuring my LTSC when I reinstalled it, but it's still negligible when you get years of updates in return.

>>720609853
>Linux users are the ones chained by their masters
Really?

>>720609398
>Using something that's free instead of buying a worse alternative is throwing away money, because... IT JUST IS OKAY?

>>720609853
Is it optional if you have to put together a custom .xml file to install the operating system on unsupported hardware, or use Rufus to mount an LTSC .iso to get around the hardware requirement and the account requirement? You also have to configure about a dozen options in Policy Editor to not have Windows send your browsing data to Microsoft, and on AMD cards, sometimes the generic Windows graphics driver will conflict with AMD Software and corrupt your installation. Really the only solution is to wipe your drivers, do an offline install, then get into Policy Editor to stop Windows from getting driver updates with Windows updates. You also have to get into Services.msc and turn off Connected User Experiences and Telemetry, which setting aside how spooky it is, is a complete resource hog that activates at the worst time.

Do you think they're going to force update the connected W10 computers in October?

I think it's better that way, because if your shoestring snaps you can just restring it and gum is much easier to undo than industrial grade adhesive

Yeah. Until microshaft ships an update that kills your SSDs.
