Hello everyone, I have an old desktop PC sitting right there doing nothing. I'm trying to give it a reason to exist and evaluating the idea to install Windows 7 on it.So, can you use Windows 7 in these days? How much do you have to debloat it and uninstall things? And, more important, there's a way to not have it becoming a SECURITY NIGHTMARE?
>>107657082Niggas are trying to use based built 7600 past the point of usefulness and they're getting dunked on for being schizophrenic.
normies get away from my windows 7
>>107658108Relax anon, no one's coming for your outdated operating system.
this thread doesn't automatically pwn a windows 7 machine therefore it's all fearmongering.
>>107658691I don't buy into this idea of Windows 7 users getting pwned, mainly because there's so few people using it, but I think it's just a retarded thing to do because it's so old and unspported, that while you're computer will still be able to do stuff it currently does, it can't do anything more in the future, and like I said before Windows 7 users are kinda stuck with as new of a computer they can get drivers for... Meanwhile, you can call Linux users trannies, whatever, but this is a non issue, they can get a new computer, they don't worry about their fork of a browser being "mostly up to date", it's fully up to date, Linux has a future, that is pretty good, Windows 7 has no future, and I liked 7 when I could web browse on it supported but it is what it is, Windows is kill unless you're gonna use 11.They're getting pwned in the sense that get left behind more than anything.

>>107658268There's no reason why you'd lose speed, the SO-DIMM form factor is already the bottleneck. The adapter is basically just straight wiring. You just won't find SO-DIMM kits as good as DIMM ones.

>>107657687fuck yeah I did and I'll do it again if it makes liberals seethe and rope.
>>107657858Some of us don't use a sledge hammer to install RAM.
>>107657858That'd add US$0,05. Think of the shareholders, anon.

>>1076557801 year of being on aither here, I don't have a huge seedsize and I don't seed much popular but I have an organic 300ish gb upload, and that's with an actual fast remote seedbox and a slow big home seedbox. 100TB would be ezpz on filelist. But not on aither.
>>107658631I don't have a huge seedsize but i do have a sizeable penis...
>>107658631It would've been easier if all you did was download Kitsune for web, but i don't think that's doable anymore since they won't be as active anymore or the one doing most mainstream stuff. You will either upload shit no one wants or race with cross-seeders
>>107657953you can't trust people. files, stats, uploads, seedsize, seedtime are forever.
>>107658698girls don't care about thatit's all about seedsize and ratio
>Just arch but without systemdAny reason to use this over arch besides cool points? I use my computer to get work done so that is my priority
>>107655190>I use my computer to get work done so that is my priorityThen just do it? systemd not being there shouldn't have any effect on your daily use. Also, Artix has many different install options, many of them use the Calamares installer and even pre-install some stuff for you, so ironically it's more noob friendly than regular Arch kek.
>>107656068Why bother with Debian when I got janny Dimitry Vodkanov updating the niche AUR packages 3 people use daily for the low cost of free?
>>107655190shartix did indeed won
>>107655190There isn't a real practical reason to use Artix over Arch

Rust in peace, Windows. You're a good OS, but in the wrong hands. ReactOS will take your place now.
>>107657364might help push pc sales + new licenses too
>>107656852It's to create artificial work for programmers and managers that would otherwise be fired since new operating system versions generally don't require complete rewrites.
>>107656797Windows 8 was a downgrade, Windows 10 was terrible, Windows 11 is a massive fucking turd. If they actually start creating proper Rust tooling for Windows, we might actually start seeing fast applications that are light on RAM use. This is a real chance for things to improve.It's clear that the Jeets in charge of MS code now can't deal with 30 year old legact C++ shit and it's not even their fault. It's C++, if you weren't there when it was written, you have no idea what insane invariants the code implicitly has.
>translate C++/C code to Rust>with AII hope the next Windows is so bad that it breaks Microjeet.
>>107657077everyone uses the core 10% and another 1% that's specific to their use case. those 1%s add up. and you use office because your particular problem WILL be covered and there won't be some faggot clown telling you "use case? code it yourself so we can reject the PR"

https://mashable.com/article/google-takes-on-android-for-pc-called-aluminium-osFinally, somebody will make a good Linux desktop. No more of these shitty hobbyist distros like CachyOS, Mint, and MX Linux. We will leave Windows and even some of those Linux distros for Google's desktop OS in 2026. You know it's true.
>>107656697I think its unlikely that zero arm laptops will let you install linux on it. At the very least framework and system76 laptops should. And Fedora and Ubuntu already have arm64 isos.
>>107656742There's the PineBook Pro that is an ARM Linux Laptop. I used it for a while until I broke the keyboard.

Mini-LED is a meme name for dimmable backlight zones designed to confuse people. Where the fuck is Micro-LED?
I currently have had a PG32UQX for 4 years now. I feel like nothing comes close to really. I don't want an OLED. Sure I usually only use it at 5-30 brightness depending on the time of day. But the option of the 1400nits is really nice when I want it. Is there anything that is already out or coming soon that could "dethrone" it?

Do you help your family members with their technology?
>>107657192I've helped my parents. No other family is nearby.
>>107658551Dawg I would want to see that shit. I'm finna be giving my dad elite comms while he's gooning. No cap.

The only time I have been asked for help is 70yo+ people who can't get their Roku working but otherwise have no issue with ipads and iphones.
>>107657192So this feminized cuck made a program to collect his sisters nudes which she sent to every boy in town over the course of her highschool years?
>>107657192No. I hate technology. I'm only a programmer because it is the least objectionable job I could find.
What would speak against me just using windows 10 until the end of times?
Windows 10 will absolutely be my last Windows version. Microsoft is just too jeeted now. I'll switch to Linux when 10 is no longer viable.
>>107655116>dude it's just retardednesswinbabies do be like that frfr no cap
>>107654575The tide is turning. Microsoft just announced they are going to turn their OS into AI slop in order to rewrite everything.Valve is about to entrench Linux as a solid choice for gaming with their upcoming Steam machine.ARM, Android, and even simple hobbyist Linux devices like the raspberry pi have been chipping away at Windows + x86 dominance for many years now. Many people who don't currently use Linux are familiar with it enough now and could tolerate using it if they had to.Valve is going to usher in the next era. Laptops and even custom desktop PCs will be built without x86. Apple is promoting the processor transition right now. Consumers want efficient, low power, low heat processors that don't drain battery life. Have you used a new MacBook lately?Windows only games will be made for a little longer but Linux compatibility through Wine will be made increasingly official and reliable. Finally, the end result is going to be a Unix future. Tech illiterates will own a Mac. Serious PC gamers will run Linux. This future will be made possible by Valve and Apple enabling consumers to walk away from Microsoft without turning back.
>>107655116I updated to macOS, windows 11 is SHIT
>Nvidia plans to start its cuts by targeting its RTX 5060 Ti 16GB and RTX 5070 Ti. Targeting the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB makes sense, as this GPU has the same amount of memory as an RTX 5080, a much more expensive GPU. The same is true for the RTX 5070 Ti. It’s memory could also be used for more profitable RTX 5080 GPUs.
