Fearmongering. You'll be able to disable it, same as you can with all the other bloat Microshaft shoves down your throat
I just don't really get what the normal user is going to do with these AI tools?

>>748708197you actually think the companies forcing AI garbage up everyone's ass are doing it with the user's experience in mind
The most suspicious part of all this is how desperately they're trying to ram this in. When 99.9% of your userbase doesn't want a highly invasive feature but you're willing to die on that hill, very very suspicious.
>>74870835910 is getting security updates until october 2027When that day comes I guess I'll finally switch to linux and maybe keep a W10 install in dualboot just for games that won't run on linux
>not filtering all connections to microsoftNot my problem
>>748708428They are using your data to train it, of course they are forcing it.
>>748708030>You'll be able to disable itYeah until MS decides to turn it back on again without telling you.
>>74870852199% of games run on linux now, proton has come a long way. Most distros are very user friendly too, easily comparable to windows
>>748708030>>748708316STOP POINTING THAT OUT!! JUST SWITCH TO LINUX ALREADY AND SAY SAAR OVER AND OVER LIKE YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO!!
Oh no!Anyway
>>748708030>You'll be able to disable itAnd then the minor windows update they roll out the following week turns all of it back on without telling you.
>>748708030Shut the fuck up pajeet, you fucking subhuman.
>>748708428it's not suspicious it's very obvious

>>748708784Don't offend me by associating me with those vile abominations. Switch to Linux if you're tired of Windows. Linux is still a steaming pile of shit that just doesn't work, whereas Windows at least does. And if you're on Nvidia, which most people are, you're going to lose out on ~20% fps just because you're on Linux. Be realistic, and suck off a horse
So what is the newest version of windows should/(you) use?

>>748708428These same users you refer to (who delude themselves everyone agrees with them while having a fetish for destroying people who disagree with them) haven’t actually seen what AI is capable of so actually seeing it in action themselves instead of going “HANDS, CAN’T COPYRIGHT, WONT BUY ONE BUTTON GAMES” will lose their resolve quick.
AI is going to be more important to Microsoft than windows, they don't give a fuck if you like it or not. Not like you're going to leave windows and go use linux in large numbers.

>>748709880I’m showing you that it ain’t making all the decisions, it’s generating decisions for me to make.If you try to make AI games going “do absolutely everything for me” that’s your choice, but you clearly do not have a creator mindset

>>748718145>entirely fabricating things absolutely nobody said>starts rambling about activation despite his previous youtuber-fed talking point was telemetry
>>748707232Updating? After 2024? Why?
>>748718332>entirely fabricating things absolutely nobody saidyou thought you were winning something by not paying microsoftthey still get to have the last laugh>starts rambling about activation despite his previous youtuber-fed talking point was telemetryyes, you need to send microsoft telemetry to activate windows, even if you crack itlook up how HWID activation worksi'm talking about the same thing and you can't keep up for whatever reason
So what happens now?
>>748708030Yeah especially in EU with consumer rights this won't fly.For other parts of the world I'm not so certain.
>>748718529>continuing to make up gibberish>MUH HWID ACTIVATIONActivation isn't telemetry you fucking schizoid, and multiple alternative activation methods are readily available if you really soil your penguin colored underpants over activating an operating system.
It's amazing how retarded luddites are. Literal clueless vermin.
>>748707232You need to go to school boy. AI will make you a real PC gamer.
>>748718778>Activation isn't telemetry you fucking schizoid,it isyou have to actually trust microsoft to believe otherwise when they say that they only take what they need, pinky promise
>>748718923>they're totally doing XYZ because... because they just are okUse one of the other activators if you're that schizoid paranoid about nothing. It's literally no different with the old "suddenly good even though they were literally le evil botnet maymay 10 years ago" windows and the ltsc internet of shit editions you smackbabies keep shilling.

>>748708030>You'll be able to disable it, same as you can with all the other bloat Microshaft shoves down your throatSo not really.Otherwise point me to where I can disable telemetry fully without anything being left on. What's funny is that even if you're an AI fag you know you ought to use Linux. Windows takes up several gbs of RAM you could be using to speed up your AI models with offloading / MoE.
>>748719980Just how desperate are you? No matter how much fake shit you make up or regurgitate from ecelebs, it's not true and linux will NEVER take over the primary market share because actual people with jobs and hobbies are not going to put up with basic functionality not working and having to cope with amd gpus.
>>748708030>You'll be able to disable itI thought Linux was supposed to be the tinker OS that's only free if you don't value your time?
>>748720221why are you so desperate to pretend you're in control on windows?it's not fake, you have to go through microsoft and kiss their ring to activate windows

>>748721162here's the data without chink pollution btw
>>748709503I like how you posted that LTSC strips out all AI shit and morons still keep asking you if AI is included.ESL moment.
Just set your maximum version and maybe get malware later
>>748710926It is pretty easy these days. It is even easier if you use AI. Just don't give an AI unsandboxed access to your computer.If you want to game, use something like Bazzite or CachyOS.
>>748710926Bazzite is cartoonishly easy to set up, it's basically Linux for Dummies so it comes with all the drivers you need already installed as well as Steam.
Windows 10 & 11 Enterprise LTSC IoT has absolutely zero AI in any capacity. Debloated, de-telemetried, and made minimal with no Microshit account and store is THE way to go.Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC IoT has full cumulative, feature and security updates until 2032, and Windows 11 will have 2027's LTSC/IoT out soon.Just go to /g/ and go to /fwt/. It's not hard unless you're a total fucking retard.

>>748722792winjeets are fascinatingly retardedthey take things that describe them and try to project them on someone else
>>748722515I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
If AI is such an amazing technology which is totes mcgoates revolutionary.Why is every company trying to force it on me?

>>748723969Various scripts and programs you can find on github/etc which will edit your registry, uninstall useless programs, maybe firewall/DNS to block telemetry. It's better than running vanilla windows but they usually let some MS features slip through the cracks, or windows will just update and undo the changes. Of course you also have to trust the debloating tool with admin access to your PC so if you're stupid it's an easy way to get pwned.

I despise Linux users with every fiber of my being. I hope corporations neglect Linux more and more, including gaming developers. Let them cry and bang on the doors. They're annoying. Most games recently that get hammered with bad reviews is usually because "it doesn't work on Proton/Linux." and they're mad because they're being excluded for not using Windows.

You know, Indians really did ruin Microsoft.Remember the Microsoft support forums?Pages and pages of copy pasted thank you for contacting Microsoft support and 0 solutions.It was crazy looking back at how brazenly useless those support forums were.They just stonewalled tens of thousands of support tickets with copypasted greeting messages.

>>748725635It's not what Microsoft will do it's what Israel and deep state will do with your personal files.Honestly the fact that Windows will constantly screenshot your screen and send it to HQ should be a dealbreaker on its own.
