Is realizing that the entire Internet is a botnet and disconnecting from it permanently the ultimate red pill?

Hi,
I bought a new laptop for my daughter and it came with windows 10. Since she would like to have windows 8.1 on her laptop i was wonderling if it is possible to just erase (format) everything and use an windows 8.1 iso file to install the OS. Do i have to buy a win 8.1 key or is there a key on the new machine usually? Thanks for your help

It's possible, but if you want to not fuck around with keys just pirate it.
>>
>>58497192
You have to buy a license key for Windows 8.1.
The Win 10 upgrade was a one time offer to elevate your Win7/8 keys for free activation. You can't downgrade the key.
Check at the back of the laptop, there should be an OEM license key, try using it to install 8.1 and good luck.

>>58497211
could you tell me whats an easy way to do so? or give some infomration where i could read about that process? Never done that before, but i guess you somehow have to generate a fake key to activate, dont you?

i think most have the same cpu's (or variations of K versions) because they are what they are,if something is of good spec at the right price its a no brainer people are going to buy it and use it,theres no originality in PC building,granted theres plenty of choice but it usually boild down to an i7 or i5 with high end gpu and whatnot,thats why aesthetics taking off,only realthing that seperates hardware anymore...
TL:DR- i just waffled on about we all use the same cuz its the best yadda yadda.

What the hell is this connection? I thought it was a 5 pin xlr but I got an adapter and it doesn't fit. How easy would it be to replace the end with a different type eg jack

It's a DIN plug. What's on the other end of the cable? Ive seen the connection used for:
IBM keyboards (pre PS/2)
Apple //c serial ports
AV out for the Sega Genesis, TG16, NeoGeo, Commodore 64, Atari 8bit computers

Yeah, looks like an old AT keyboard plug for your 486 computer.
To hook up to the Bridgeport mill at work, I used a USB adapter to a PS2 adapter to the AT keyboard plug. I think somewhere in the jumble of cables I've got the parts to hook up to the serial mouse port but it's been a while since we had to trouble shoot that machine... I think it went to the warehouse after the die crib took over the maintenance shop.

XFCE with debian is fine. Use what you are comfortable with, do't like it? Install a different DE/WM, that's the beauty of GNU/LINUX

why are you so gay?
>>
>>58496945
Living in poverty is very bad for your mental health due constant stress. Most Android users are also non white too and have to deal with the stress from racism. Show some fucking understanding.
Also sure more Applel users are homosexual but they are relatively wealthy, which helps a lot to deal with discrimination, also most are from a first world country so it's not that bad.

I've seen some bad bait but damn son, you took it to another level.

>WITH ONLY DAYS until Donald Trump takes office, the Obama administration on Thursday announced new rules that will let the NSA share vast amounts of private data gathered without warrant, court orders or congressional authorization with 16 other agencies, including the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Agency, and the Department of Homeland Security.
>The new rules allow employees doing intelligence work for those agencies to sift through raw data collected under a broad, Reagan-era executive order that gives the NSA virtually unlimited authority to intercept communications abroad. Previously, NSA analysts would filter out information they deemed irrelevant and mask the names of innocent Americans before passing it along.
>Executive Order 12333, often referred to as “twelve triple-three,” has attracted less debate than congressional wiretapping laws, but serves as authorization for the NSA’s most massive surveillance programs — far more than the NSA’s other programs combined. Under 12333, the NSA taps phone and internet backbones throughout the world, records the phone calls of entire countries, vacuums up traffic from Google and Yahoo’s data centers overseas, and more.

Haha, what?
I was expecting to see a theonion.com address there.
But really, this is just a legalisation of what they were already doing. I mean really, you think it's a coincidence that they're IMMEDIATELY ready to start doing this before even knowing if it'll pass?
Or is it more likely that they've been doing it for years anyway
