OS pirating is scary. Seems like the vulnerability on viruses would be nuts
No, retard.
>>58236470
You studying STEM f.am? Your school might give you a Dreamspark account and you can get a ton of Micro$oft products free.
>>58236470
pirate W7, there are no downsides and the massive upside of not having windows 10
>>58236470
Yes. It's GNU/Linux
>>58236515
OS pirating now is like a few clicks and still receives all updates
>>58236543
This. The only legal free copies that I know of.

I use kingwin for my windows keys, costs 40 bucks max.
Even the ones that don't work out of the box due to being already used, when doing the support chat with microsoft they give me a validation code anyway.
Done this about 10 times for myself and family members (twice for myself)
>>58236470
You sound like a high school faggot. Ask your school/college to give you a Dreamspark account, then download Windows ISO with license keys for free. They may even throw in Office 365 education version.
>>58236515
LOL, why the fuck you use Windows in the first place if you scared about its vulnerability bout viruses?
>>58237392

Gas yourself, shit stain.

Underage get out. Fucking 12 year olds from back in the day have more guts than you.

>>About to finish building PC.
>>Need an OS.
>>Windows 10 cause don't know anything about Linux. You faggots make it too hard to get a good idea on it. The threads are full of you cunts bitching and moaning at each other. I digress.
>>Have always pirated Windows systems my whole life.
>>Bummed because I have to buy W10 because it seems like pirated versions won't work.
Are you faggots telling me that you can still safely pirate and register Windows systems in this day and age?
Also, can we make Win7 work?
I miss WinXP.
>>58236470
Install a cracked copy of Windows 7, use the disability Win10 upgrade to get a legit key.
>>58237513
That photo reminded me of how shit my own life has become. Filling the void with technology and memes can only work for so long. It is best to move on and find some people who care about your well being and then devote some of your time interacting with them.
>>58237489
Microsoft doesn't deserve payment for the unstable insecure pile of shit that is the Windows operating system.
>>58237526
>Bummed because I have to buy W10 because it seems like pirated versions won't work.

microsoft toolkit
then go back to plebbit with your retarded spacing, faggot

it's a bitch and a half but it is possible

You can still get it for free through the assistive technologies program https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows10upgrade
>>58236470
You can literally download W10 from Microsoft and use it without ever activating it
Just torrent it... Why pay to be spied on?
>>58236669
It is a new computer, there are likely no drivers for any of the hardware
>>58237496
Also they had more viruses...
>>58236515
Go back to school, kid.
>>58236470
install enterprise, they let you "evaluate" it for 90 days.
save 1 buck from your lunch allowance, so at the end of the trial, you will have enough to buy a legit home licence.
or install gentoo
>>58236470
lol
>>58236515
How old are you kid?

>>58238502
>not just pirating windows 10
>>58238337
>Also they had more viruses...
Not true, that was usually the fault of the tech illiterate parents. A 12 year old back then was more paranoid compared to now, don't forget this is the generation that grew up among Runescape scammers.
>>58238502
Stop fucking telling people
>>58238502
This teebeehoo
>>58236515
Bullshit. Download the highest seeded version of Windows 10 from Pirate Bay. You literally can't go wrong.
>>58236470
Pirate Windows 7.
Install Windows loader.
Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro using https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/accessibility/windows10upgrade
Congratulations, you got a legit $199 OS for free.
>>58238731
>pirate Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016

>>58236470
Just install windows XP Black edition. It's free
>>58236470
>can afford 1K on computer
>can't afford windows
>>58236470
Just install the ISO and then never activate it. All it does is it won't let you change your background and there will be a watermark in the lower right.
>>58239079
Fun fact: you can still change the background via themes.
>>58238754
LTSB N 2015 is the superior version.
>>58236470
>free
>legally
Do you go to a school that offers dreamspark?
If not...
Just use Windows Toolkit or something nigga who cares if its legal
>>58236515
you can get windows legit then crack it after kid.
>>58238563
oh i 'member
>>58238314
What are you on about? You get drivers for your GPU on a DVD along with your GPU. You get a shit ton of drivers with your motherboard, or at least ethernet drivers so you can download others.
>>58239144
Or just ask a random kid you know to lend you his/her account?
>>58237545
>find some people who care
but who really cares?
>cracking windows is scary/unsafe/hard
Why is /g/ flooded with underages and/or retards?
Just download the Insider Slow Ring ISO and use that until you have the money for a license, then you can leave insider and have stable build.
>>58236470

>tfw bought win 8 pro for $10 3 years ago and then upgraded it to 10 during the free upgrade period
Kind of odd that the key hasn't been blacklisted yet. After all my paypal receipt claims I bought a VPS.
>>58236470
Hi Joshua
>>58236470
Docker + KMS Server is easy to deploy
>>58239336
You care about you, and that's all you need to get a good start.
Look for Windows 10 for handicapped. Thank me later.
>>58236470
What's better to stay on W7 or to upgrade to W10?
>>58236515
literally dumb
protip: DL windows 8 with this keygen activator thing, then let it update to windows 10.
They will literally give you a legit version, for free
>>58236470
Install gnu plus linux operating system
