Tell me again why keeping only free option is better as opposed to having an optional paid option along with it? Why haven't you jump over to Linux /v/? it's free and has a community.

Nigga it’s so easy to install cracked Windows 10 that it’s basically free
Because windows keys come with their garbage prebuilt or laptop and 99% of people have baby duck syndrome

w10 is basically google that just sells your browsing history, banks on MS Store, and provides on the page
Mods are something you have to seek out. An OS is something that most people will have on their computer out of the box. 99% of the time, that OS will be Mac or Windows. I'm sure a lot of people that buy/use a computer don't even know they'd normally have to pay for an operating system. Also there's is a paid option for mods alongside free, it's called donations
Linux is an outdated meme. If I didn't care about games I'd switch to FreeBSD. Apple sucks too, but your still better off using mac os than linux.

does that work? is there any person that actually gotten money off of donations from modding? patreon or whatever.
Well, I don't support communism
>>383711406
W10 is free
>>383711205
paid mods brings in the feeding frenzy of money grubbing shitters. the literal dregs of humanity. its will turn out just like green light
>>383712319
>brings out thew jews
you literally still have free mods. those who wish to continue making free mods will continue to do so. all paid does is bring new talent into the pool

so what?
How do you stop windows 10 from updating? I don't trust those corporate microdicks and nothing is working.

Bout time someone made a good operating system doncha think?

>Linux is an outdated meme.
Then why do 99% of supercomputers and data centers use some form of Linux distro?
>>383712527
they package them up, flood the market, and resell them
>>383712567
it does work but there is little to no support on it because the majority of users are on windows. it's like why create a game for the Vita when the most of gamers play on PC.
>>383712834
maybe because they're not bloated?
>>383712834
Not anymore. They're switching to freebsd.
>>383713094
NO THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING BROS
>>383711205
Paid mods have the same amount of support and reliability as free mods, i.e. none.
Can't say the same for paid OS vs free OS.
And besides, Windows is free for students. I graduated 5 years ago and I'm still using the same copy of Win8 I nabbed through dreamspark.
>>383713252
thats what refund is for. I mean we live in the age where demos are rarer now and gamers buy the game blindly before testing it out.

Linux requires a little more knowledge about basic computing to get if off the ground. /v/ is full of niggers and niggers and technology don't usually mix well.

I've been considering switching to Linux for a while. Is Ubuntu Mate a good place to start? I've heard good things about it.

this is more about journalists being idiots than it is black people

no start with antergos that way if you want to tinker later it will be 100 percent easier without the ubuntu fuckery

You can remove every single one of those ads from the start menu.
There are tools to remove all the spyware/cortana shit on windows 10. Hell, pirated versions usually come with all the ads removed already.
No excuses.
>>383713998
Those tools don't work.

But why?

Not anymore. Cracked is free though so it’s allg

moron
>>383713896
What is the Ubuntu fuckery exactly? I only read that the main Ubuntu had Amazon spyware or some shit like that, and even then it got removed.
Gonna inform mysel on Antergos anyway, thanks.
>>383711205
Oh hai Todd!
>>383711649
Anon, don't tell me you were dumb enough to get a "free w10 upgrade!".
>>383714057
Yes they do.
>>383714214
ubuntu fuckery resides heavily around the inability to remove parts of the OS or being made much more difficult to remove than is needed

It's been slowing down since '08. And supercomputers aren't using GNU/Linux, they're using commercialized products designed to fix the inconsistencies Linux has on modern hardware.

Maybe if you pedos fixed your shit you wouldn't be so scared of people knowing what you do online.

I have literally two windows-only games left to finish, then I switch to linux.

It's pretty simple OP:
Software: Good paid stuff beats free shit.
Mod: Good free stuff beats paid shit.
>>383711205
Stop shitposting
>>383711205
Because Linux isn't good for games atm. I dual boot and don't have steam on my Linux partition, so I'm probably not included in steam surveys.
Paid mods are bad because in the free market, people will rip people off and get idiots to buy a shittier version of a free mod, mods will become paid only and no one will make them because they don't turn a profit or people just won't buy them at all.
>>383711205
linux isn't really an alternative to windows
its not "you want a product A that is free or the same product B that is paid" its more among the lines of do you want a motor or a bike?
Also why would anyone be for paid mods? You are already paying for the game you should be able to alter it in any way you want (if we talk about single player OFC)
>>383711205
Let's be real here, nobody on /v/ actually payed for their Windows OS.
>>383711406
Pirating Windows and the free upgrade to 10 are free as in gratis, not free as in freedom. You are still being spied on even if you turn the telemetry switch off, the only way to not get fucked by MS is to block their domains at a router level since Win 10 clears your hosts file after every restart. Windows has been spyware ever since PRISM in 2007 (Vista and onward, possibly even the long term support patches for older operating systems) but 7 is the last usable piece of spyware that they released that doesn't restart on you and has a good sane GUI.
Have this opinion from an actual modder.

In other words just get a console and OS X or Windows XP.
This is the superior combo, P C U C K S just don't want to accept it because MUH PEOPLE ON REDDIT THINK MY RGB COMPOOTER LOOKS NICE

OSX since 2012, XP/POSReady 2009 is limited to 32 bit, 64 bit Windows XP for drivers is a nightmare and any security update past 2007 for XP could be telemetry. XBL and PSN also have telemetry when connecting online. Having an offline only Windows 7 SP1 machine is the ideal choice for modern gaming along with modded offline consoles.
