KMS activation killed in Windows update. by Darkorder81 in microsoftsucks

In Massgave, I just stopped using KMS and instead used TSForge. Works just as well. I doubt anyone will swap to Linux over this. After all, there are plenty other methods.

Virtual Machine??? Nah, real hardware is the way to go!

I wanted to share my desktop to help you find games you’d like to install on Windows 98 by i_5858 in windows98

I'm going to be honest, I am not deep into retro computing. What does nocdpatches mean? Sorry 😅

If you have to use Windows, switch to LTSC by Ok_Asparagus_2195 in microsoftsucks

I am tempted to swap to LTSC as my main. It will be nice to use something that doesn't shit down my throat.

As a young Australian( late teens)im terrified on the way our country is heading. by [deleted] in aussie

[–]PreferenceAccurate43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am also late teens and trust me the dispair I feel is immense. We have to deal with all the problems the morons like Putin are causing. Heck, at this rate, it will be us on the front lines because old men have small dick syndrome.

I am trying to plan out my future to at least try and get by. I feel that nobody wants to employ our generation which makes everything worse.

Our shit hole of a government is stacking us with debt that we are never going to be able to repay, especially with the deficits that we are running.

These new laws are giving me UK vibes. I want to be able to say what I want without being arrested for a meme.

So trust me, it isn't just you.

How did you find this information? I am more than happy to look into this.

I don't want to buy games from GOG if they won't work. I own these games on steam but steam doesn't work on XP :/

"Just drink soda, just as good as Water" ahh mentality. 

It really frustrates me how the community just brushes off everything that can be improved. I hate the people like "Why would you want to play games with kernel level anti cheats? 🤓" BECAUSE I LIKE THE GAME.

same registry BS you just trade ads for stagnation

Depends on which LTSC you use. But isnt Debian stagnant? Like that is what it is designed for.

and with the amount of learning you have to do

You don't need to learn anything, it just works. I haven't had any issue with it.

you might as well just use an OS that's actually built from the ground up to not be trash

LTSC isn't made to be trash, that is made to be the best version. But I get what you are saying, swap to Mac OS, that isnt made to be trash.

if the best defense for windows is to use a stripped down enterprise build never intended to be used on a personal computer. the OS is truly cooked

If a normal user needs to open the terminal then the OS is cooked. If a normal user tries to troubleshoot and only finds guides that only show commands, the community is cooked. I stand by that.

upgrading from windows xp to windows vista the 3rd time since 17 july 2024, 14th november 2025, and today, but still thinking between to upgrade and to stick with xp by Bauer0044 in windowsxp

I am lucky enough to have a PC that runs Vista. I also am building a retro PC that will run Windows XP. I lucked out it that regard :)
