REDEEM SARSREDEEMFuck it im staying on win7, fuck your AI botnetAlso fuck linux
>>518881244for only 1 year?
>>518882020Fuck you too
I had a Windows 7 black edition or something like that. It would autoinstall from a USB stick and had everything tweaked. I can't find the download anymore.
>>518882642
>>518883197Stay mad.
>>518881244Windows 10 cost me $300 cdn. Windows 11 was free. (still is)
>>518881244>At no additional cost if you are syncing your PC settingsThat's a weird one.
>>518883872Why is it wierd?You have something to hide goy?ITS FREE
>>518883197Retards should not be allowed to criticize Linux without using it for a month, works just like Windows
>>518883197Both Linux Mint and Bazzite Linux are surprisingly easy to use.
>>518884263>just likePreposterous lie.
>>518884263>>518884326you linux fags are worst kind of retardsyou use linux as talking pointnormal people use windows for acutall worknot all of us use computers to only jerk off on hentai and watch animes while wearing fedoras and posting on both reddit and 4chanWhen you say>i use linuxeveryone with brain know you just use linux to talk about using linuxyou are doing nothing else with it apart doing self-flagellation daily to have most basic shit things work that any other OS does by defaultYou are fucking retards.Win11 users are lesser retards than you get out of my thread rats
>>518884704>normal people use windows for acutall workYes saaaar, retards use Windows for work.
>>518883693And why is that I wonder.
>>51888470499.5% of you don't need it for anything except spread sheets, text documents, e-mail, web and calendars.
>>518884704TRVKE
>>518884956>99.5% of you don't need it for anything except spread sheets, text documents, e-mail, web and calendars.Yep, and LibreOffice does all of that already for free without spying on you and selling your data to advertisers.
>>518883197I switched to PopOS on my gaming rig almost two years ago, works just like Win except you have to manually mount slave drives the first timeyou're just a retard
>>518884704have fun using proprietary software nigger, btw i installed linux server on 5 small business, not a single security instance, they were hit in the past with ransomware because their previous IT was a nigger installing windows server.
>>518881244saar this is extremely racist you bloody
Just instal w10 ltsc IoT if you can't let go.Even the w11 Ltsc Is customazable to the point that its basically just w10.I'd recommend learning to use linux though. You need to be a retard if you cannot figure out linux mint.

>>518884956When your rig has its own CPU power supply, what difference does throwing an extra hundred bucks at microsoft make
>>518881244Actually you should just use Linux. It's an actual gift to humanity.
>>518881244>redeemDO NOT REDEEM!!
>>518883197Had a chuckle but handling of audio in Linux is leagues above Windows, you can pull off some dark magic shit when you need to with either pulse audio or pipewire. I have had small issues but they are never as obscure to figure out as they are in Windows assuming you have equal familiarity with both systems. I can debug and fix audio problems almost instantly on Linux with my rather complex setup involving combined audio sinks.>>518884704>windows for actual workLMAO no, unless you do some paper pusher shit with Office suite that does not require any deeply technical things. Otherwise it's Unix or nothing because any use of CLI is vastly superior, meaning Mac is fine too to a degree besides lacking optionality in many areas. Windows has obstacles in it where there should be none.
>>518882794Just torrent a new one
>>518882642linux mint
>>518885857Solidworks alternative on LinuxGOThought so
>>518881244I would have paid them to fuck off with their updates when they rolled out.
>>518887536you dont have to pay them you can manually block all updates on win10not sure if you can roll them back but to stop them was non issue since win10 releaseyou can also kill or kill almost all telemetry on it.Not such case with win11
>>518886660Try running it in Bottles
>>518881244I just enrolled for free, wtf, I thought I had to pay for the extension?
>>518887822>Trythis is linux mantrafingers crossed professionals?windows mantra is just do the work in the tool that selfinstalls
>>518886660FreeCAD, OpenSCAD? Took me a second to look it up. OnShape is browser-based so it works either way. If you want a workflow and UX identical to a specific tool that's a (you) problem.
>>518883197Literally the only reason I stopped using Linux was because university (and later work) had people using shit like excel or docx files, and I didn't think their windows machines would handle any of the libre office formats. At this point I would jsut compromise and say we all use google sheets instead as a brownserless alternative. MS only has office, nothing else. My linux distro was ubuntu and it ran just fine. It's literally the popularity of windows that makes changing from windows a difficult thing to do.
>>518888543its like you told meuse paint instead of photoshop
>>518881244Wtf is Windows?
>>518889261linux that actually works apparently
>>518888543Oh and it turns out you can apparently run AutoCAD via browser.>>518888936That would be GIMP, which is pretty good. On the other hand, imagine having an OS and not having a decent shell or means to install software directly and instantly. Or even safely, due to inherent lack of verification, no wonder professional environment is plagued by malware wherever Windows is applied.>>518888717Libre can both open and save MS-specific formats, luckily.
>>518887804It would have been less work, and therefore less expensive, to just pau them a fee to fuck off.
>>518890152>Libre can both open and save MS-specific formats, luckily.Right. But then you need to send something back to someone who uses windows to assess it, and that effects either your grade or your job. It's just easier to stick with what the boomer knows and uses, since they unironucally matter more as they control your job/grade.
>>518883872They want everyone to stop using local user accounts so their data is uploaded for training. I've got win11 on a newer machine for lack of supported alternatives and it is fucking incessant about logging in to jeetsoft online account
>>518890152Nonothis is what you didI asked for solidworks on linuxyou gave me options that are on linuxthose option compared to solidowrks are the same as if i asked you what is unpaid alternative to photoshop on windows and you came here and said its paint.As shitty nothing paint is compared to photoshop, the alternative you recommended are same shit compared to solid-works.Hope its clearer now
>>518881244>buying winblowsonly is the west
>>518890474Read your own post, you specifically asked for ALTERNATIVES. Also I'm pretty sure there's plenty of people preferring GIMP over Photoshop, doubt it makes sense to be smug here. No one wants to suck Adobe dick if they can avoid it in year 20 fucking 25.>>518890441How does it affect your evaluation if the result of your work is the same and the formats you create are compatible? Sounds like some boomer bullshit indeed.
>>518881244I'm still on 7.Fuck niggers and fuck Shill gates.
>>518881244You can get free windows and office for life with a single command btw
>>518881244Don't redeem any updates. Stay with whatever os you have. Make Microsoft collapse from their own hubris. Simple as.
>>518891553do you understand that alternatives for solidworks for linux that you reccomended are as bad as if you reccomended paint as replacement for photoshop?
>>518883197lmaoafter 20 years you still have to do all that shit to just get it running at all
>>518892125Now that you worded it like this, yes I do, thank you. Well then it sucks if even something like AutoCAD doesn't cut it, remember touching it years ago and it felt alright. sounds very odd to have only one piece of software good enough for the whole big realm. With that being said, if I was locked to a particular proprietary toolset I would still pick Mac over Windows, especially for things like graphical design, audio work or video editing.
>>518892914Thats the thing.When you have all encompasing monster of a software you do not need alternatives. Everything works for everyone and nobody is complaining.Thats why windows have like 3 versions of windows in use and you have 50 new daily distributions
>>518893408Not to imply CAD specifically, but when you have a piece of software that has too many responsibilities, getting one broken feature can mean downtime in many areas instead of one. Plus if you let someone have means to grab you by the balls via excessive centralization, they absolutely will do it- again have Adobe as an example. At least smaller companies learn the hard way once they start bleeding money for bullshit extra expenses.
>>518885857I want to fuck this horse so bad, you wouldn't believe it
>>518889945Turkroaaaaach
>>518881244Extended support is free for me. I'll stay on windows 10 until genshin is EOS, or until z-brush works well on linux.
I got a mac yesterday. It's great. I still use gnu/linux and I have VMs but I love mac hardware.
>>518894134you pirate it and what is there to beak?You got so used to everything catching fire every day you think this happens on windows all the time as well NoYou install Solidworks and work, nothing can break in it, it is what it is, always, today tommorow everyday.
>>518883693I think both copies were $8.99 from cd key place. Just need to get off the resellers who get them "to bring into china" and then turn around and resale.
>>518894873OEM keys were always dirt cheap.i had like 20 of them from buddy that builds computers, just gave them all away, they have like thousands of keys every year
>>518884704Enjoy your Shitdows 11 then.
Also if you want to have security updates till 2030, install windows 10 LTSC, and activate it with some MAS scripts
>>518894981what is that?
>>518885612It's not about the money.
>>518886660Haven't found a good one. I have an airgapped W10 CAD workstation just for this reason.
>>518894278Mmmm
>paying for windows literally eversurely nobody... does that right?
Why not just use a custom Win11 without telemetry?
>>518895122The entire LibreOffice suite available on a default instalation of the most barebones version of Mint tha could run on a machine from 2010.
>>518895644you understand that flexing with office is like boomers flexing with pressing power button?
Why not just run a custom Win11 without telemetry?
>>518887804Browsers will eventually obsolete you if you don't have the security upgrades when they update browser security features
>>518895565>>518895992you cant shut it down like on win10>>518895335looks so its not just solidworks, linux is graveyard of good programstheir makeshift replaceemnts are like playing bootlegged chinese nuantendos
>>518888335You can receive my extension little lady
>>518895740Oh man if only you could just open the software manager and download any flatpak you wanted oh man oh fuck it's too hard :((((((((((
>>518896000i will just run VM with windows11 on laptop or some shit
>>518896211unpack solidworks and you got 1 more linuxtard in your army
>>518896149so what isnt shut down in custom versions like ghostspectre or Tiny? They have all the slop disabled
>>518896287You're willing to use a VM so you can clearly use that or a wine/proton layer to run it.Problem solved.
I stuck with win7 years ago when i saw how on my normie friends PC the troondows 10 had downloaded a tranny flag to the start menu during tranny month. Also the candy crush ads felt like another gross violation.... god normies are disgusting how they put up with this. im sure 99% of them wont hesitate updoooting. gotta protect from those hekkin virusinos afterall. Same type of people that wear the masks.
>>518891553I use photoshop cs5 look at me
>>518896710i could as well type this with 5 meter stick from another room but its much more convenient to just sit infront keyboardif we are talking about running solidworks under emulators
>>518894681>pirating the software used commerciallyThat can be a very expensive mistake, but I can accept that your country might still count as the wild west in this regard.And anyway, I'm not talking about stability of OS around the tool when responding to you, but tools themselves specifically. But have at it, what you say makes no sense when people get buttraped with Windows updates regularly or MS accounts brick things while Linux distro close to desktop specifications is fit for server environments and can have years of uptime until a security patch requires a reboot. Not even a remotely close comparison in terms of reliability until you introduce the bleeding edge approach.
>>518896892local programs are not live servivce, i think you are missing the point, i can go and install solidwoks on no internet computer, it just works, will work 1:1 same as it did on any other computer, nothing can break
>>518881244I can't imagine still being a Windowscuck in 2025. Linux is actually good and easy to use now. I don't even remember the last time I had a major issue on my Fedora desktop.>b-but Red Hat is bad too!Yes, but at least they aren't as powerful as Microjeet.
>>518886660BRL-CADif it's good enough for the US military it's good enough for you, too.
>>518896211Cheer up
>>518884263>works just like windowsYou still can't even properly install most distros on a lot of laptops without being hardwired in - due to the distros never shipping with wifi drivers pre installed for some god-forsaken reason. Way too many mandatory drivers still need to be installed manually. Linux has gotten better, but distribution managers are still way too autistic to make it "simply usable".
Unironically the SteamOS is pretty good for people switching over from windows. Only thing I can't get to work is streaming services (for my gf), but I can just plug my phone into the TV and use samsung DeX. I haven't tried any banking through linux but again, I can do that on my phone
>>518897109just checked the site...kinda explains state of US army recentlyalso consider thisarmy uses subpar free shit to charge who knows what amount for declaring paid software packeges in finanscial reports
>>518890441>But then you need to send something back to someone who uses windows to assess it, and that effects either your grade or your job.I never had any compatibility issues with libreoffice and the xml-zip type of msoffice document files (like docx).
>>518897109nigga wtf>its good for the armyITS WAS GOOD FOR THE ARMY IN 1980s why are you linux fags this faggy i dont understand
>>518897502>kinda explains state of US army recentlyit's good enough to keep us under occupation via (((nato)))
>>518897395>but again, I can do that on my phoneif it's an android phone then it's also linux :)
>>518897715don't @ me until you tried it
>>518897000Large sprawling programs in general do have lots of connectivity and interlinked dependencies involved, that was my point. And speaking of Solidworks, I wouldn't count on it staying the same if there is monopoly at play.>installed software will work the same way each timeJust wanted to say Windows is really worse at this than Mac or Linux due to the way it optimizes for performance, it just doesn't like dealing with heavy programs. And then throw .NET menace and registry fuckery on top of it.
>>518898143gtfo out of my thread you lying piece of nigger shit
>>518881244or just use tsforge and unlock it via the mas activator exploit
>>518881244How serious are virus threats these days? Can't you just install a 3rd party protection software?
>>518898245or what? :)
>>518881244Replacing Win10 on my main laptop with Linux Mint as we speak. Fuck corporate bullshit
>>518883693>he paid for WindowsLmao I'm currently enrolled in the ESU for free nigga. Get your shit together.
>>518898440if you stay i wont fuck your mother
>>518881244>Serb>too stupid to use LinuxThis pretty much confirms that Balkanoids aren't white
>>518885515These babies need their VIDYA GAYMAN and thus get hard-filtered by Linux.
>>518899183Video games are like masturbation,the solution is in your hand.
>>518894278>tf>tpNah, I believe you>>518899342>the solution is in your handCorrect
>>518897813well there ya go, I was already a user without knowing it
>>518886660try one of the wine overlays like bottles or lutris. yes it can be a bitch to set up but i'll do anything to get away from pajeets at this point
>>518899621win10 for no for a while. when i get some time for tinkering will see what i can setupthanks anyhow
>>518884704lil bro started a OS thread then cried people brought up better OSs lol
>>518901594Sure unc
>>518881244>pay to opt out of a service
>>518901710brown coded
>>518886660>add solid works as a game in steam>run it
>>518884263except better, because I don't have spyware taking screenshots of my PC for no reason
>>518902034calling people brown coded while reccomending this >>518902034
>>518897715>git has been around since the 60's what a piece of shit
>>518902154>NOOOO I DONT WANT SOLUTIONS I JUST WANT TO COMPLAAAAAAAIN!1!1!1!11!11!
>>518902274make webm of it running on linux like thatyou are just full of shit
>>518883197Sometimes Linux works out-of-the-box with hardware. When I tried it on my desktop PC, all of my hardware worked.Linux can be difficult when you have to do certain things on it though. Sometimes it will cost you hours of your time.
>>518883197Usecase for sound?
>>518881244You can also just install W10 Enterprise IoT LTSC 2021. It's still supported until January 13, 2032.
I just want to play videogames
>>518904142too bad, trannies and jews have forced everyone into their stupid game
>>518881244Use NiggerBSD then
