What are of “BURN THE WITCH!” implies a lack of fanfare?

If only they hadn’t squandered the chance while they had it.

Bear with me, I need to put my eyes back in my head.

To be fair, ‘I wouldn’t be surprised if…’ isn’t a testimony or claiming something happened, it’s voicing a level of disillusionment with something, nothing but opinion.

They were leeches without the torrenting.

I’m personally thinking it’s a chance for them to make something different without needing to convince any investing party for a big budget.

10 points for the pun. Love me a pun.

“That’ll show em!” They said, proudly looked at the divet in their face where their nose used to be.

We’ll see. Game development still generally has a lot of advancements it has yet to leverage so I’m comfortable with the choice I’ve made. I know about the tools to gut regular Windows but I assessed it would take me more effort to weed through than start with bare bones and add what little I wanted in. I’ve also tended to find every feature and minor update has inevitably messed with an object that is supposed to belong to me so I’m all aboard for not having to deal with that as often thanks to the long-term strategy of LTSC.

For some.

Glad I could help.

I have to agree, I can’t say I like or want to use Windows but my experiences of random, unexplainable glitches, numerous hours of forum spelunking and the ever-present arrogant smarminess of a sizeable portion of the Linux userbase tell me which flavor of pain I prefer.

LTSC is extremely feasible for gaming and productivity. As Codilingus already said, you can get the ISO and activation from MASSGRAVE’s site.

Depending on your requirements, you’ll probably quickly figure out you need MS Store for one thing or another (the inconvenience of having pretty much everything removed) so you’ll need a tool like this to install the store and, you can use Chris Titus’ Wintool to turn off the spyware. It also has a program downloader built in with a long list of useful software to help speed up your initial setup process.

There’s a lot of bloat in the commercial versions of Windows, both 10 and 11. It’s easy to install the MS store on LTSC and for those who don’t need/want the features, the bloat is entirely pointless.

That’s not what was asked.

MS Store can be installed on LTSC quite easily so it’s very possible to still have the bloat-free version.

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution though. OP has asked specifically for information regarding Windows and even specifically mentions Linux in the post so it’s fair to say they’re aware of it and choose to stay on Windows.

A fact that many of us fans are crying over

Or embrace the life of the OF creator.

A pleasure to meet you Mr. Lewd Danger Dude

I don’t think that’s the flex you think it is…
