okay but can I install it without an internet connection
>>109582681>>109582683Gradual rollouts, you will get these by 2028.Small Taskbar is coming out next Month, guess what, Gradual Rollout, if you have bad RNG you get it by 2030.
What does windows 11 offer outside of the arbitrary proprietary stuff to force people to use it?
>>109582685yeah>without cmdoof, idk man, you kinda need that cmd to install without internet connection
>>109582685Yeah and unlike Troonix, you can also install applications offline.
>>109582696workarounds don't count
>>109582685>>109582696Do you niggas not use RUFUS for your .ISO's?
>>109582681>Microsoft is gonna spend 5 years making Windows 11 usable just for 12 to fuck it up again
so they fucked up the context menu and are patting themselves on the back by fixing it years later?
>>109582681I went back to win 10 specifically because of windows 11 file operations. Not even Opus and Everything could save it.Win10 is so zippy in comparison
>>109582761Yes. Then ill move from win10ltsc to win 11ltsc
>>109582683Please genuine responses only.why do they fucking do this?i get that it's for women & boomers and retards and infantalizing people and erasing their ability to actually use technology, and that gen alpha has been lobotomized by ipads since age 3 but just... wtf.seriously why
>>109582681how the FUCK does a trillion dollar worth company that makes operating systems for 50 years, NOT have figured it out yet?I mean WHAT?They are still doing R&D on such basic thing as a FILE MANAGER?FUCKING WHAT?
>>109583223not only that,>the largest software company by revenue>In 2018, Microsoft became the most valuable publicly traded company in the world>has also held the largest/majority OS market share at >50% in the world for over 30 years.i fucking hate bill gates. has probably set the world back literal decades because of his nepo baby bullshit.
>>109582681>make hundreds of things worse>after some time make one thing better"wtf I love Windows 11 now."lol
>>109583223this is what happens when your OS is 50% jeetcode and 50% vibecode
This annoyed me the most on 11. 10's was fine, it was an unnecessary change to begin with. I hate jeets.
I bet this will make it worse. Although it was getting really bad already.
Give me consistent Dark Mode already
>>109582683lol, win 7 can do that too anon
>>109582681And the wincuck cycle comes full circle.
>>109583212I fucking hate it too, bro
>>109582681How faster? It went from 3 second down to 2 seconds to open? Sry, the native version is still years ahead unless you install 50+ plugins
>>109582681Its still far slower than Windows 10.There's only so much you can CPU frequency boost to fake good performance.
>>109583973Open your curtains, orc.
>>109582681>>109582683i havent tested it, but does it still freeze when you have multiple hdd and you're running ssd mode (let hdd auto sleep to save power) and then run the Explorer? I fixed it with AI. lmao. 2 ways, 1) injection to bypass network scan timeout to 100ms 2) built a new custom file managerBoth options work and im using both.
>>109583212because it's a vibecoded react native webslop app
>>109582716WTF? You need a browser to install applications on Windows
>>1095826812lil2l8 i just switched to fedora
>>109583212Despise this too. Only reason I see is UI designers cater to touchscreens massively. Modern deves often mainly have web app/phone experience and apply design patterns without thinking much.Browsers were doing it for a long time. I've stopped using Firefox when they completely removed 'minimal' theme and right click menu extended to the bottom of the screen. Currently on Vivaldi and they've conformed to Win11 style as well recently, but at least I can still rearrange my shit and remove unnecessary buttons in it.
>>109582692you mean old one before they fucked it with the weird fucking dual right click menu?what about AI and random updates that install without consent
>>109582681My right-click menu is an absolute mess. Windows 11 has two layers and they're both packed with junk.
>>109582681I'm still not using saar11
>>109582681I stopped finally using Windows when my Windows 7 used 32 GB ram to SHOW A FUCKING EPUB TEXT FILE AND MY WHOLE PC OOM. Now in Linux, same epub text file uses 12 MB. Yes, 12 FUCKING MEGABYTES YOU FUCKING TRASH WINDOWS 7 FUCK YOU.Same with audio files I wanted to listen at the same time. 340 MB RAM usage and 35 % CPU in Windows 7 while Linux+MPV did this with 5 MB and 0.2 % CPU.Funniest thing is that all these recourses would be used for UI in Windows 10 and one right click menu in Windows 11.
>>109582681>>1095826832026 might be the year Windows 11 can leave the alpha stage
>>109583973win11 doesn't even have a consistent UI, using approx 5 different ui frameworks all over the systemconsistent dark mode? try again in 2040.
>>109582681I just removed windows11 ltsc from my dualboot.100% cachyos now after 4 weeks of dualbooting
>>109582716this is false actually, try again tho
>>109582716This, you also have to send pictures of your feet to the GNOME project and after a couple days they come back with "NHERRRR USE CASE?" and reject your request to install.
>>109582681Great stuff!Now there will be more system resources available for telemetry and other spyware.
>>109583223Backend people retired and now no one knows how to code that assembly shit.
>>109582692>still no Refresh optionyup, I'm sticking to W10
>>109586490assembly isn't that hardwhat's hard is the fact that nowadays the kernel is filled with a lot of compatibility bullshit that, although simple to differentiate and sort, still requires a lot of codingI am willing to do it, but I know that they won't trust some nobody with zero public projects available of any kindassembly isn't that hard or difficult to comprehend, it's extremely straight forwards, just has a lot of repetition; by a lot of repetition I meant A FUCKLOAD OF REPETITION HOLY FUCK THERE IS SO MUCH FOR A WELL OPTIMIZED AND SCALABLE PROGRAMthey should really stop hiring python and rust niggers and more ASM chads to rewrite basically everything, scrapping NT 11, if they even had one in the works, and having Windows 12 run on this based and properly coded NT 12, or go back with the naming scheme to NT 7.0 to make it like "sorry for being a bunch of micropenis pajeets, we'll give you want you want!"
How does this lil nigga do it?
>give devs tasks to make it worse, they add their own brand of worse by being bad>promote everyone for doing tasks that made it worse>people complain about it being worse>announce you are going to make it better>give devs tasks, adding "make no mistakes" and "make no slower" to their prompts this time>promote the same people again for fixing the shit they broke the first time>profit happens regardless of whatever that process is
>>109582748No, I use diskpart because I'm not a retard.
>>109587671by glowing
>>109583990It's showing that you can customize what options you get on right click
>>109586968There is a literal refresh button in the ribbon saar
>>109582748when you dont have a windows machine this becomes quite a kerfuffle.
>>109588109It looks all over the place.And a fuckload of empty spaceMicrosoft will keep trying to make Windows look like macOS until that minimalist style will go out of fashion then WIndows will look clunky againIt's their fate
>>109582683>have to open settings on windows for the context menu to work as I want it to>when it works OOTB on every Linux distro I've ever tried and even random meme projects like serenityholy fuck
>>109583212There's no reason.You can ask, and you'll get post facto bs like:- touch screens- readability- it's in style- multiple interfaces- framework- jeetsThat's all secondary, this shit happens because no one in charge at Microsoft has any taste. It's a shit company that doesn't care about its products. Simple as that.
>>109583212UNUSED SPACE IS WASTED SPACE
>>109583212Cnsolitis
>>109585227Not really. Since it will be full of new features expect the jeet coded shit to be full of bugs. Try 2027 in the best scenario.
>>109582681After 10 years of updates they will finally turn it back into Windows 10. Give it another 10 and we might achieve Windows 7 level of perfection.
Don't care. Still using old context menu. New one can suck my ass. File explorer performance improvements welcome though
