So I'm trying to figure out a way to jip Microsoft. We've already got a way to activate windows for free, but LTSC images need to be available - because that's where we get away from Microsoft's bullshit.
Unless Microsoft removes access to DISM and gp, we'll still be able to cut off that "always online" limb.
In some cases, that's still not possible for m, although my personal laptop that I use daily runs Fedora Atomic.
But I also recently reinstalled another laptop with Windows 11, promptly stripped the whole thing of all kinds of apps and services, installed a bunch of audio software, libraries, etc, to prepare a machine to be show worthy.
When the day comes and Ableton ports Live to Linux proper is when I will forego a bulk of my VST's, but running it under wine for real-time purposes is not reliable at all - so eh. There's Bigwig, but I got like years of Max patches that I just can't live without, and I don't need just a DAW. In fact, if you ask me to leave Live, I'll tell you to fly a kite.
Same issue it's always been, unfortunately, that vendors do not support the Linux desktop. Go bother the vendors about platform supoort. I do, frequently. In fact, time for another ticket - and this one is going to be political.
That's not, wasn't, and never will be free even if you don't ritual with your Talisman, the dollar.
Closed source software isn't about making money. That's just a sucker tool to vacuum people that accept shit-worse-than slavery from the dollar.
Free means to ditch any and all software that some person you don't gorram know bar one pedophile who stole everyone else's written software and turned around selling it promising what it does. Even he doesn't know jack fucking squat about what it really does.
If you flip that for the trust you gave over the then the news is that you're an even more gullible sucker and it isn't a gamble on whether or not the next software cracker will kidnap the rest of your family as well.
The life of everyone in your family will inevitably become the truth serum regenex for Steve Jobs when they unfreeze his ass. If you think he really is dead then you weren't paying the fuck attention to his stock market vaccine six months before his ice cube.
You can't tell the difference between an AI and a real person because your understanding of reality was fed to you by children in culture's trap persuading you to summon the 10 dimension into the essence of your soul flux into theirs.
The obvious truth you think ain't cuz the writer knew you would understand what the real dimensions against reality we live in are without your inability to perceive them.
It's not difficult. You can see it. Let me throw an example of one them.
We see 4 dimensions. Height, width, Length and time right?
There's another multidimensional track here. This is the Story. It's a little more complicated and I'd be foolish to claim understanding of that; though I would easily say the I know a few of them. I've read many Sci-Fi, Fantasy and a few others.
That's just an example. I am trying to give you understanding but if you continue to ask questions that are essentially a weapon using ignorance to attempt to smear someone who is attempting to help everyone before the Sun smite gorram planet like Mars for our universal suicide in ways we can't begin to understand let alone describe should we actually know anything about it let alone understand anything.
