How do you guys enjoy Windows 10 anniversary update? I think

>>55905362
>No one uses that shit
So few people use it, that MS decided to add a Linux subsystem to Windows.

>>55905386
yeah, but that's only temporary until they buy it out

Windows supports working in the UT4 engine but that doesn't mean anyone runs a UT4 OS.

All I noticed was the fade in on the log on screen, what new features are you using?

>>55905446

>>55905362
it's ok, new start menu is a step backwards though.

>>55905409
Buy what out? I don't think you know how this works.

>>55905456
I'm gonna give you one more try to come up with an analogy that isn't literally the most retarded thing I've read all week.

are they rolling it out in stages or something??

i went over to my parents house to help them update and check for updates just says device is up to date. i only changed their machine to 10 a week ago though.

>>55905362
i want to get into the linux subsystem, wheres the command line app? do i have to search for it in the store or something?

>>55905536
Not my fault that Linux is so simple it can trivially be added to Windows.

group policy but you're of luck if you're not on enterprise or education, by the way education doesn't have cortana if anyone cares about less botnet

Can we please just ban all Windows 10 threads? The paid shilling is just fucking outrageous today. Get the fuck off this board Microsoft. We don't want you here. We're going to continue using Windows 7 whether you like it or not. Get out.

This thread brought to you by Microsoft(tm) Windows(tm)(c) 10 (c)(tm)(r) and the wonderful paid marketing department that makes up most of Microsoft itself, expanding more and more every year until they finally only have one guy actually programming Windows.

implementing a linux subsystem would have taken a non-trivial effort on microsoft's part, and it's not something that will turn any kind of direct profit. they did it because there is considerable demand from the large number of developers that work in linux with a linux-based toolchain. don't be retarded

>>55905801

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Uninstalled a few programs and moved a few folders without my permission.
Otherwise, its ok I guess.

So when will LTSB get this update.

>>55907341
yeah, the dude that ported it updated it after the AU went online and also updated one of the other themes he makes. He does a great job and it's not that hard to install and stay away from the shit base theme W10 has.

Goddamn retardation. I'd be on Linux right now if it wasn't for the fact that shit is broken absolutely constantly. Boot up and the wrong audio device is active yet AGAIN. Boot up again and my main audio device is now just missing. Bluetooth doesn't work right, and that's assuming you download the correct Bluetooth stack for your particular window manager (WTF). Linux is great if you do things the same way as all the main devs. Windows still has, by far, the greatest driver support of any OS.

Speculating here, but what you could try is activating Windows 7 properly with DAZ Loader, then turning on something in Accessibility, such as Filter Keys, then downloading and using the Windows 10 accessibility upgrade, which is still free. Activate and check that you have a digital entitlement (well, digital licence they call it now). Then, thereafter, do a clean wipe reinstall without entering a key and hopefully you should be genuine?

I haven't tried this, and don't know if it would work: you'd be trailblazing. If it doesn't, wipe everything, bite the bullet, and

(or you could actually just buy Windows 10, I mean, if you're going to use a commercial OS...)

>>55910377
>lifting the path limit
FUCKING FINALLY

Over 20 years to close a bug!

It's an API-breaker for programs that allocated a PATH_MAX buffer, and didn't support UNC Unicode paths, like, say cmd.exe, that's why.

The Action Centre thing is retarded and got insta-killed.

Lxss is comfy, but conhost is still pretty janky compared to the MinTTY fork consoles. What's with the font rendering in conhost? When is it going to upgrade the API of conhost with a flag to get us xterm-256color support? (Current structure is hard-nosed to 16 colours.)

MSYS and Cygwin are now pointless. Needs more work, yes, but a good start.

Nothing of mine broke. No ads. No extra telemetry by default although I do notice - negative change here - Full (recommended) telemetry is the default for new installs, until turned down. I'll have to check if that's the crazy beta Insider-focused screenshot-sender. I think it might be, so turn that shit down to Basic, that's just regular Windows Update.

The update process is extremely clumsy. If they're going to keep doing this, they need to make it seamless, even rebootless, rather than running what is essentially a full reinstall.

Downgraded back to 8.1 for now. I'll probably wait a few more months to see what Microsoft does with 10 before attempting to upgrade again. Hopefully my activation/digital entitlement isn't revoked by then.

The only thing I don't like is that I can't disable the lock screen. Annoying but just something you have to deal with sadly. Like all those years where I couldn't put the unity launch at the bottom of the screen until April this year. Sucks.

Most of those are just dumb terminals.

It's not too bad, but does anyone know how to remove the Windows Defender icon from the taskbar? You can't turn it off in either of the Notification area settings.

Also, anyone know if it's possible to use the previous version of Sticky Notes? The new one is awful.

some copypasta repurposed for 2016

Imagine a giant penis flying towards your mouth, and there's nothing you can do about it. And you're like "Oh man, I'm gonna have to suck this thing", and you brace yourself to suck this giant penis. But then, at the last moment, it changes trajectory and hits you in the eye. You think to yourself "Well, at least I got that out of the way", but then the giant penis rears back and stabs your eye again, and again, and again. Eventually, this giant penis is penetrating your gray matter, and you begin to lose control of your motor skills. That's when the giant penis slaps you across the cheek, causing you to fall out of your chair. Unable to move and at your most vulnerable, the giant penis finally lodges itself in your anus, where it rests uncomfortably for 4, maybe 5 hours. That's what using windows 10 anniversary is like.

I clean installed because I had ClassicShell installed previously, and I didn't want the update to break that even though I could've uninstalled it prior.

I do agree that Microsoft should've taken more precautions in your case, but if you had any system modifications (like ClassicShell as I mentioned above), then the fault is on the user itself IMHO.

Except that's fucking retarded and if your math knowledge is THAT bad I don't think you'll understand even if I tried explaining it, but I'm going to anyways
%
1000 people = 2.33%-1.65% = 0.68%
100% / 0.68% = 147
147 x 1000 = 147000 people

You're implying, with your post, that only ~150,000 computers are connecting to google.

Now let's look at some actual statistics

Gartner estimates 2.4 billion computers worldwide. 0.68%of that is 16 million new Linux computers
