I installed Windows 10 IoT LTSC on a laptop that previously had Linux Mint (because I installed Mint on a new laptop) and it feels like such a downgrade. Might bite the bullet and install Windows 11, did they really patch the method of signing in with a local account by evoking command prompt?

KDE plasma looked familiar enough to me as a former windows user to be able to quickly find my way around. The switch wasn't painful at all. In fact the UI is vastly more comfortable to use than the constantly crashing slow ad riddled AI slop garbage that is the modern windows UI. Even despite the occasional krash.

Normalfags don't want to or know how to rice their krash machine to look like that.
Also normalfags don't even know that's a possibility, they think linux is just a terminal screen and are scared of white letters of a black background. You can't convince them otherwise.

Office software is the bottleneck.
You're gonna need word and excel for most anything you work with and everyone uses MS word. MS is actively going out of their way to break compatibility as much as they can, sure most any fork of OpenOffice can open their files but it will break formatting, fonts, images, formulas... Anything MS can make break.
So even if you're interested in fully switching, you're still fucked because normalfags have sold their soul to the MS jeet and will happily use their 365 copilot app till the heat death of the universe. Ask me how I know.

GEG if you only knew how bad it is
At work I was literally put on duty of going through every optiplex and setting up windows for typical joe office worker. Due to security, local account was insisted on.
90% of time was wasted on trying to trick OOB to fuck off with the cmd tricks. We didn't have ms-cxh:localonly at the time (either was not there or just uknown,I don't remember) so had to use the older command that is now removed from latest releases. I did try to bypass OOTB with the sysprep mode and registry tricks, but then seemingly this would prevent some software from being updated (keep in mind, for both techniques I had my internet cable pulled)
Due to the boomers that ran the place, I was not allowed to use MS server WDS or anything like that, in fact they expected me to not even use scripts caues muh viruses and muh warranty, though scripts were allowed after I showed them to the higherup (he admitted he didnt understand it anyways)
After I was at least able to get in local account, I had to run a debloat script and set up a bunch of stuff like pcname, update, etc
I got through 70 units in 4 days, 8h a day, about 4 stations at the time, largely wasted on waiting for OS to debloat itself. Last time the higherups that did this apparently didn't use scripts, and therefore it would take them 2 weeks+ of manual work.
Keep in mind that I am an autist who is willing to read into random user guides on how to foce windows to do what I want. If not people who maintain altas, id not know about a decent amount of best practices. Everything is obtuse and shittly documented
The sysprep mode would allow me to cut down on time by solid 5 min per machie, but because of it refusing to install some things like the default suite of modern apps, I could not use it. I bet its possible, but do you think I got the time to research why and how this happens? LMAO

Wtf are you on about? Ryzen cpus are barely on par with intel cpus and only in games, in productivity tasks intels crushes ryzens. Also intel cpus often go on sales with very good prices, meanwhile x3d gayming garbage is always overpriced and prone to go up in flames.
And Nvidia makes way better GPUs, Radeons are utter trash abandonware compaed to geforce cards, even in games.
You sound as if you have been reading ayymd shill propaganda on /pcbg/. Even redditors on /r/radeon came to terms and admitted that Radeons are garbage at this point.

Well depends where you look
Gaming consoles? None of them use Intel or Nvidia!

But AMD has advantages which is why they have 100% of console market share

Is shader code really that precious so we need all that shit? Can't developers (especially game developers) just distribute their shader in the form of source code that would be compiled for the end user GPU when he installs software/game?

How is it different from any other kind of code? Not everyone wants to share the secret sauce for their game's graphical effects.
>>
>>107849591
Well, available source for games could cause direct damage for example in multiplayer games where cheat devs could use sources to design more sophisticated cheats or analyze client-server interaction code to find holes and attack game server directly. But what damage could graphical effects code cause?
And a lot of games have most of their game logic in scripting language formats that are human-readable where binary game engine only implements some low level operations that don't have much of a value most of the times.

If you move to it from linux then it's similar levels of suck, slightly worse in some ways, slightly better in others.
If you move from windows it's a big downgrade.
I've had 2 attempts in my life to use that shit and ended up selling my macs, the last one was 2 years ago.

There's many issues to talk about, but some I remember as really annoying are:
1. Full screen doesn't exist, when you fullscreen something it creates another virtual desktop and moves the app to it. This is beyond dumb, and slow as hell when you want to alt tab constantly between something that is fullscreened and something that isn't because you are moving virtual desktops.
2. The file manager is worthless, it can't even align files on its own, if you right click inbetween 4 files to create a folder then it will literally create it there overlapping them, you can rearrange it later with an option, but it's so stupid. it has other problems as well that you can only understand after experiencing the shit yourself.
3. It does bs color grading, when you play a video with mpv it will look off, downloading color profiles that supposedly match the macos one don't truly fix the issue either, the colors will be off, I was only able to fix this by buying one of those garbage macos only video players that are missing most functionality you need. This doesn't even happen with youtube videos so idk wtf is going on with that OS.
4. Many small problems, interface designed for mobile users, it will be hard to find or disable so much dumb shit like mouse acceleration, it's a similar experience with linux and its garbage defaults.
5. If you think you can just emulate windows games then give up on the idea, it's more miss than hit, don't bet on anything working decently.
Overall if you don't do video or music editting I see no point to this OS.
>>
>>107849481
Also I'm wrong about the 300 cycle part.
apple's batteries keeps 80% charge at 1000 cycles.
So that matches up with your battery health perfectly.
(assuming that the health % is accurate, and not a number that is calculated purely from the cycle count, 80% of 80% is 64% so technically your battery is slightly better than expected?).
