I don't even care about the botnet anymore. I pirated Windows 10 anyway, they can go ahead and sell my data to make up the cost if they want.
Besides, everything is a botnet these days. Are you telling me you don't own a phone? You use a VPN for everything? You're still probably getting tracked by somebody. Its hardly worth the effort.

If you're fine with the way Microsoft is treating their own customers then there's no problem but otherwise i feel that Microsoft is a lot like the panda in this video. No matter what you do, they can do whatever they want with your computer, it's a matter of principles. You literally cannot say no to windows 10.

I'd say the opposite. What does Windows provide that the GNU system can't? Linux definitely has them beat as far as user interface goes that's for sure.

Around 74% of /g/ is using Windows 10 Home or Pro.

>>60730328
You do realize that Enterprise and Education are actually the same in terms of functionality?

>>60737630
M$ treats Edu SKU more like Pro. See how they added Cucktana on 1703.

>>60737687
Well they made Cortana opt-out in Education.
You can completely uninstall Cortana in Windows 10 Edu

>>60737836
>completely uninstall Cortana
You can't. You can't even do that in LTSB or the system-wide search will be broken.

>>60737855
And how do you think system-wide search is working on Enterprise Versions?

>>60737871
The same. My point was that M$ treats Edu like Pro, forcing whatever they want on you. At least Enterprise you knw it's consistent. You never know the next update might limit GPO, just like they did to Pro.

>>60737918
They can still force anything on Enterprise.

>>60737978
I doubt they will ever do to Enterprise what they did to Pro on 1607. But I'm sure they'll do the same to Edu in the near future. Not so much to Enterprise.

>>60737388
What distro is that?

>>60737388
I agree, but Linux will never be successful among normies and I'm sure you know why but I don't see a problem with that.

This is the only acceptable version of winblows you can run. vista and 7 have no proper ssd support, 7 8.1 and 10 have the automatic update meme (unless you want to stay vulnerable and disable windows update on 7/8.1 before installing the update that rips that functionality out of your os)

Server versions of windows are slow as fuck to boot and without proper ram and cpu support just as unstable as the desktop version.

Embedded is the perfect combo of not having desktop OR server bloat. Now get out of my g you faggots.

>inb4ButMuhLic
Lrn2pirate or MSDN

>>60738178
Anything since Vista has proper SSD support. 8.1 is trash.

>>60738187
Out of the box it's trash but you can make it GLORIOUS
Windows 7 still had no proper ssd support my T420 and X220's boot times went from 30seconds with ssd to 5 seconds with ssd when I upgraded to 8.1 embedded

>>60738204
Your PC is trash. On mine 7, 8.1 and LTSB2016 boot the same from a SSD.

>Out of the box it's trash but you can make it GLORIOUS
You can't. Shadow Copy was removed on 8.*, you've got Store, unique ID, online service location, etc.. 8 is complete trash.

>>60738250
All of those things can be removed from the iso...
Stop making excuses and join the 8.1 embedded masterrace
Also 8.* DOES have shadow copy stop spreading fake news all you have to do is run a powershell script to reenable the guis

>>60738294
It doesn't have a functional shadow copy. 8.1 is probably the worst Windows ever released. It's also the first Windows which was complete botnet, going as far as "backing up" your encryption key to M$'s servers. There is nothing good about that OS. At least 10 has a few neat things like native scroll of inactive windows and better codec support by default. But 8 it's just a bastardised version of 7.

>>60738347
it only sends M$ the encryption keys if you are stupid enough to opt for logging in via a ms account instead of making a local account(can't even do that on embedded), again lazy people repeat what stupid people say 8.1 embedded is the most comfy OS there is and I hope you stubborn faggots never find out or else M$ might decide to ruin it for those of us who do know.

The only version with no telemetry is the Chinese version
The LTSB/ Enterprise meme needs to stop

>>60738459
It has too. It just sends it to China first then to USA instead of directly to USA.

>>60738422
reminds me of a bug with nLite, if you set the username to 'null' then all the on-first-login stuff runs on every single boot

>>60733736
I assume you like w7 because of nostalgia because it clearly have no real benefits over w10.

>>60738577
>what are forced updates

>>60738577
There are some weird bugs on 10. I have a Titan X Pascal and Windows 10 constantly brings tha card to full speed (P0 state) whenever I interact with the immersive UI (such as start menu, settings, or any other modern application). It's annoying and makes it run hotter tha usual. Why would I do that when performance on 7 is the same or eve better in some cases and I also don't have to deal with such stupid issues?

Another issue, audio related, 32-bit float audio starts clipping if I pause for about 30 seconds then resume. Assuming I do some form of normalization or use equaliser. To fix I have to stop playback on all programs.

>>60738608
So you prefer an outdated OS? have you heard about security holes? maybe they push it a little bit too much, but everyone should update quite fast after it's ready. It's some of the reason why w7 is less safe, also w7 is less supported. w10 is the future, whether you like it or not.

Therefore, forced updates are not a good reason. They are also more flexible now with when you want to update. It's not really that "forced".

>>60738666
>security holes
>w7 is less safe
False. You have no idea what you are talking about.

>>60737346
Weird. I'm running Enterprise and I don't seem to have neither Netflix nor Candy Crush.

Is my Window bugged? Or are you just full of shit? Hmmm..

Microsoft back w10 with everything that got. If you believe w7 is more secure than w10, than I have no idea what you are talking about. w10 even surprise hackers. The security features in w10 are good, and Microsoft are fast with the updates. Especially Device Guard and Credential Guard are nice. Integrated protection with windows defender and the list goes on. I think you it's more you that are blind and have no idea.

No, they are equal. If anything 10 has a larger attack surface due to the whole immersive shell on top of Win32 which 7 does not have.

I run 7 on a XPS15 9550, which driers are "dogshit"? I even installed it on laptops with KabyLake CPUs. I made my own iso of 7 with all updates integrated and USB3 drivers, it works on everything I tried it on.

>>60738774
It's an ASUS X550
CPU and GPU clocks won't "idle" properly
CPU stays at 2.80, while in 8.1 it goes down to 0.76

Are there things you cant do with LTSB that you can do with other Windows 10 versions? How do games, drivers, etc work?

>>60737388
>What does Windows provide that the GNU system can't?
Time to do productive stuff instead of searching for 999 different files in 999 different directories just so you can enable a really simple feature.

>>60742616
The only difference between the normal versions of Windows 10 and LTSB is that with LTSB you can nerf the telemetry and put it on the same level as Windows 7's, the only official updates it gets are security updates, major content updates gets included in a new version of LTSB released in that same year (I think) and it doesn't have certain Apps installed by default like the Xbox App, the Windows Store or Cortana, everything else basically works exactly the same.

>>60742813
If you plug an android phone into a computer running LTSB will it detect it and let you access files? Some anon the other day claimed media transfer protocol didn't work on LTSB

the only thing is that make sure you get the april updates anti that ransomware BS and then you can fully brick it so you can't update it(that's the only way you're gonna be 100% free of telemetry, turns out even telemetry data goes out even if your group policies tell them not to)
