FAQ:
>How do I activate Windows?
HWID2 generates and registers a permanent legitimate license on MS's activation servers
github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts
Usage: paste this into Powershell, run.

irm https://get.activated.win | iex


>and Office?
Same link, select Ohook option
You can also use Office.com if your needs are very minimal
or try OnlyOffice/LibreOffice and set it to save in MSOffice file formats

Use Office Scrubber, reinstall Office and activate with MAS.
Make sure to install one of the latest ones.

I made a fresh install and I must say that the unattended tool at https://schneegans.de/windows/unattend-generator/ is state of the art comfy.
It deals with 99% of the annoyances of a fresh install and it's reproducible.
It's either this or installing aids and use the chris titus tool to remove it.

Both those tools are buried in the section:
>Should I debloat / build my own ISO?
If you need to ask, then no.
If you know what you're doing:
https://pastebin.com/S5VKBirt

Imo this general should push the users to use these tools because it's either this or getting fucked by 100 small annoyances you need to fix by hand following some pajeet tutorials first SEO link on google.
The "if you know what you're doing" is no longer relevant because you can use these tools while chatting with an AI and get the quick run down of anything not clear.

I basically use the terminal for everything now and i have the code bellow in my .bashrc.
It allows to select multiple files with fzf when hitting ctrl+f and select whatever directory with ctrl+p.
So for instance, you can type "mv " then hit ctrl+f to select all the files you want (using tab for multi selection), then enter, then hit ctrl+p to select the destination directory.
I use it a lot.

#!/bin/bash

bind -x '"\C-f": "BUFFER=$(FZF-FILE-SEARCH); READLINE_LINE=${READLINE_LINE:0:READLINE_POINT}${BUFFER}${READLINE_LINE:READLINE_POINT}; READLINE_POINT=$((READLINE_POINT + ${#BUFFER}))"'
bind -x '"\C-p": "BUFFER=$(FZF-DIR-SEARCH); READLINE_LINE=${READLINE_LINE:0:READLINE_POINT}${BUFFER}${READLINE_LINE:READLINE_POINT}; READLINE_POINT=$((READLINE_POINT + ${#BUFFER}))"'

FZF-FILE-SEARCH() {
ls -Ah --group-directories-first --color=always | fzf --reverse -m --ansi --height=50% --border=bold --prompt "$(pwd)/ > " --bind="change:top" --bind="ctrl-h:backward-kill-word" | sed "s:$:\':g" | sed "s:^:\':g" | tr '\n' ' '

There is literally no reason to use Linux. Heck, there's no reason to use anything other than Mac OS™ and Windows™(10®). Why, the poorfag asks? Allow me to explain-

You use Mac for-
>showing cute videos to your friends
>sniggling up with your gf
>going hiking and casting to reddit
>just being a super relient go-to machine that'll have your back in a pinch

Windows you use for
>playing video games
>making expensive machines
>school computers

Linux, on the other hand, exists only for these principle reasons
>watching adult cartoons

>Xfce is lightweight
9 replies and 2 images omitted. Click here to view.
>>
I don't much care about lightweight in terms of memory usage (which is what I assume your shitty unlabeled chart depicts), I care about lightweight in terms of lacking obnoxious visual tinsel like animations and transparency. And yeah, sure, a bare window manager would give me that too, for less memory. But then I'd have to build my own DE around it, and I don't want the inconvenience. Xfce is fully-featured without being too loaded down with shit that annoys me.

As someone who uses XFCE and Cinnamon this makes sense. At startup while running Pulse Effects, CopyQ and Flameshot my machine uses 990mb/1gig. Now its at 1.81gb with two mpv windows, Htop on Xxterm and Terminator.

Still much lower then Windows 11s idle 3.5-4gigs

XFCE is the perfect blend of modern DE features and minimalism. It is both featureful and relatively lightweight

I've got an interview in two days with a company that previously denied me after making it to the final round of interviews. The recruiter told me that they might skip the technical interview due to me doing well the last time I interviewed with them.
Upcoming interview is with 3 people whose roles are:
Senior Quality Analyst
Senior Quality Analyst
Senior Analyst I

Wtf is a "Quality Analyst" and am I correct in assuming that this is going to be more of a behavioral interview vs technical?

its something i've been doing lately. It feels pretty clean & it saves a lot of vertical space which is nice but is also feels a bit taboo.
It becomes slighly niggerlicious when you have many statements in the body like
if(x){++x; y = 3; if(x%2) coninue; break;}
but i still think its elegant-ish and if it isn't then you can always break it up into multiple lines at that point.

Also since im making a whole thread feel free to post other taboo coding styles that are actually nice.

>blows the fuck out of you're kernel level anti cheat
this is fucking hilarious. doesn't matter if apex, valorant, rust, cs2 faceit or any other league. any FPS is currently unplayable because kids run color/ML aimbots on their second pc and forward inputs to their gayming pc with this 40$ passthrough device. and all the jeet AC devs are too stupid to write an aimbot detection algo that doesn't result in 6 million false positive bans. (the valorant jeets literally used their RAT malware anticheat to check&ban players that stream a centered screen region which is smaller than 512x512 pixels).

Jokes aside, What's the difference between a closet cheater and a good player?

The only argument I've gotten is that they don't "deserve" to win but I suspect only shitters with no aim and gamesense consider winning in a game some kind of a reward

Maybe it's because I don't play AAA DEI vibe coded shovelware where you have some useless number go up when you win, but I'm really just happy to frag and don't care if the other guy is cheating as long as he's not flying and shooting through walls or something

I don't get it, why aren't people upgrading your RIG now if you know you'll need to replace it within the next 5 years? Even consoles are going up in price, steam machine is looking to be near $1k and PS5 Pro is $700 for console and prob another $150 for peripherals.

Generational leaps in graphics aren't really gonna happen anymore and the 5090/4090 might last for a decade.

Alright well since firefox is doubling down on implementing ai in their browser and theyre completely ignoring their user base professing how they dont want it. Which is the better fork of firefox to flee to? Im considering waterfox or librewolf since both are likely not to implement the new aislop bloat. Recently heard about this floorp browser too but its new to me and idk anything about it. Plus the name sounds gay as fuck which is the only reason im suspicious of it, the name alone already sounds like its begging to be abandoned but thats just my surface level take

I have a multi-GPU setup where I have 4 displays, both GPUs are 700XTXes.

- GPU1: HDMI/DP
- GPU2: HDMI/DP

The HDMI monitors are 4k120, the DP monitors are 4k60. When I try and set the 4k120 monitor on GPU2 to 120Hz the monitor starts turning on and off. If I set this to 60Hz I don't have an issue.
I've disabled VRR on all of the monitors. I've trued KDE, GNOME, and Niri and all of them have the same issues. Wayland BTW.
