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?

>So, can you use Windows 7 in these days?
Yes, though some software from the last few years may not work on it
>How much do you have to debloat it and uninstall things?
Zero debloating required. It's windows 7.
>there's a way to not have it becoming a SECURITY NIGHTMARE?
Disconnect it from the internet.

theres extended security updates, it's still getting security updates until next year. look on mydigitallife to find the patches necessary to get it.

i still use windowss 7 as my daily computer. its fantastic. i mostly just daytrade on it, youtube is a bit slow, but its yet to blue screen once.

for security, i run tinywall and set it to deny everything. if a program needs access to the internet, i approve it. once you start using all your programs, it never bothers you again unless its some weird program or a windows update tool. if youre smart theres no risk, unless some zero day gets release that can compromise a computer with zero user interaction.

>>107647565
>SECURITY NIGHTMARE
That is a meme
Your problem is to get over the compatibility issues as you have to use old versions of many programs. Also no DX12
Besides that, W7 is still the best windows up to date
>>
>>107655924
Not how this works. Actual security researchers publish findings of vulnerabilities in windows. Unless you show a device coming up as clean against established proof-of-concept attacks or a vulnerability scanner, all you’re doing is shilling for an OS that is already proven insecure.

Decades ago Asrock released this. This is the AM2CPU board that you could put on certain Asrock Socket 754 and Socket 939 motherboards that included the Asrock Future CPU port. You could then upgrade those motherboards into AM2 motherboards with this add in card that has the new AM2 cpu socket and new ddr2 slots.

Imagine if we had an AM4 motherboard like this. And then once AM5 came out you would just put in your AM5 add in card and now your AM4 motherboard supports AM5.

There were lots of interesting upgrade paths in the past. Pic related is one Microsoft made for the Apple MacIntosh.
>The MacEnhancer came out in 1985 and was a small beige box that connected to the Apple Macintosh 128K's modem or printer ports, expanding the computer's connectivity with an IBM PC-compatible parallel and serial ports. This, as contemporary magazines reported at the time, allowed Macintosh owners to create graphics and then send the images to be printed on IBM PC-compatible printers. Why was this necessary? Apple essentially only had one printer out at the time, the LaserWriter, while PC users had a ton to choose from.
>MacEnhancer owners could also connect to modems and other serial or parallel port accessories designed for the IBM PC, opening up a whole world of peripherals that would otherwise have been closed off to Mac owners. In fact, you could say that the MacEnhancer was a very early predecessor to all the MacBook docking stations available on the market now. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Most of the revenue comes from companies paying, so it's actually the opposite - companies can think that they are getting closer to filling a position but they actually just have 5000 slop resumes to go through.

You are retarded. If you are a capitalist it's better to do dual license, with the opensource one being viral like GPL. BSD is capitalism for the others. Later they will donate you 5US$ to humiliate you further.
>>107653159
It's the most useful of all BSDs due to the rump kernel. It has the possibility of benefiting ALL future independent OSes.

>Microsoft plans to eliminate every line of C and C++ from the company by 2030.
>Microsoft plans to translate the largest C and C++ systems to Rust.

The rise of Rust and the downward trend of code quality are directly correlated. As populations become less intelligent, they rely more on the crutches built by previous generations. Using Rust is basically admitting that you are incapable of writing memory safe code without a crutch.

This applies to pretty much all rewrites, not just Rust.
Busybox doesn't have the best compatibility with coreutils for example.

You forgot to mention the CEO was an Indian Hindu rape rat, but then the Hindu rape rat jannies would immediately censor the thread whenever you bring up their Hindu pedophile cult destroying tech company after tech company. And yes, that is what it is. It's not Muslims, Chinese, Buddhists, Shintos, etc. destroying our tech companies. It's 100% entirely Indian Hindu rape rat invaders, the same ones who infest and destroy all forms of civilization.

It was so clean, fast and elegant. I miss it. No Microsoft One drive constantly trying to steal and save your data in a data center, no integrated AI, it was a pure new Windows experience, and we need to go back.

Oh stop. Windows 8 was aesthetically challenged ass. 8.1 might have performed better but it was ass too. We need Microsoft to make Windows 12 like they made 7, but they won’t. They’re emptying their cache all over AI and forgot what a flop Cortana was. We need fewer autistic people in tech.

Then 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.
