Hard to tell honestly.
Someone made a list of all the ftp servers in the world that have no protection and you can log in anonymously to.

Could be useful for messing around with.

So these are just FTP servers that allow anonymous logins, but you'll just be a regular user? I guess something interesting might be found and I'm sure there will be ones poorly secured so expect some lulzy stuff to happen.

Why is it that I have no control over windows defender? It constantly reactivates on it's own.
What is the point of this? What do they gain from this shit?
>>56671415
Relax and embrace the botnet, young wincuck.
Windows Update reactivates itself. Windows Defender reactivates itself. Windows constantly hangs with 100% HDD usage out of nowhere. I tried everything I could find. Fuck this shit.

are there specific articles on XP that detail how to turn off services that pose threats to security as well as group policy settings that may help?

Just buy a router and you'll be fine.
Just remove networking support and you'll be fine.
Just install gentoo and you'll be fine
There is a phenomenon I noticed about age and software. The older you get, the less shits you give about what runs on your phone/pc, who wrote it or what it was written in. You don't care who mines your data, you don't care what search engine you use. What text editor you use.
All it matters is that the software works.
That same phenomenon applies to using Linux on a desktop. Admit it. You use Linux for bragging rights, don't you?
I use linux BECAUSE I'm old and lazy.

What's the purpose of Haiku?
Can't they already claim the 1.0 version so it would get some attention of others?
>>56671344
Don't know

Tell your experience of all those.
Is there any good use for these today?

Running Linux
If you don't need any games and are fine with playing lower resolutions of video, then it's still great for stuff like LibreOffice.
Use the display as an additional monitor and the computer itself as a headless server.
that depends, what's a "good use" for you?
a good G5 will shitpost on imageboards, surf wikipedia, news websites, and watch low-to-mid resolution internet video alright
they can run useful (post-'97) versions of MS Office just fine all the way up to 2k8 if you're fond of the ribbon or need the newer document format, and they'll run Photoshop up to CS3/CS4 depending on whether you go with Tiger or 10.5
Mac OS probably is one of the best platforms as far as abandonware availability goes, the Macintosh Garden has archived absolutely tons of shit for lots of different uses
Linux is still a decent option like >>56671303 posted but honestly unless you're interested in development or running it as a server I wouldn't bother since you can get up to date free software with tigerbrew plus all the aforementioned proprietary shit as an added bonus
How to make Linux to look like Windows 3.1?
Also, what's your favorite non-KDE/GNOME/Unity WM/DE? How long did you config your desktop?
I'm also interested in making my Linux look retro as fook.

Questions and advice for poorfags purchasing stuff.
Should I get a $60 phone with Android 4.4, or save up for the $150 Android 6? If all I need is email, maps with navigation, and some light social media stuff?
