Bill Gates: >We're ending support for Windows 10 but you can enroll in Extended Security Update plan for a price. >The price is 61$ (plus this and that) for the first year, double for the second year and double that for the third because Jewish magic so 61+122+244 = $427 (((at least)))EU consumer advocacy group:>So you're not ending the support, you're updating as usual but now you want to start charging for it?Gates: >Erm ... hehehe ... what do you mean ?It's just for a year now afaik but we'll see how it goes in the future, should actually be the same with this precedentMutts will, of course, pay and the money goes to Israel.The Articlehttps://www.pcmag.com/news/microsofts-windows-10-extension-is-now-absolutely-free-in-europeMicrosoft for Muttshttps://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/whats-new/extended-security-updates
Which linux version are you running anons
>>519371427I'm sticking with Win 10 now, I thought about switching before I found this out
>>519371329you can also enroll your shitty computer for free to get the ESU.>Click the Start Menu, type PowerShell, then open it.>type in "irm https://get.activated.win | iex" without the ">activate the ESU shit>takes like 1 minute and its FREEfor more info check out massgrave.dev
>>519371613Well imagine thatI used the standard method
>>519371865you paid jew gates money?kek
>>519371427https://massgrave.dev/windows10_eolWill answer in 2-3 years
>>519371427Fedora 42
>>519372040No you dumb fuck it's fucking free in EU did you even read the OP
>>519371329its free herejust turn on one drive to sync somethingit then enrollsthen you can disable one drive again
>>519371516Fedora
>>519372293So it's free for everybodyThe fuck is MS even doing
>>519371427I use Arch btw.Will be switching to Gentoo probably.
>>519372353Will keep in mindHow's compatibility with various apps that work on Windows
>>519371329It's communism
>>519372122>did you even read the OPof course not
>>519372589>How's compatibility with various apps that work on WindowsThat's not how computer work, you tard.
>>519372780Well I got it for free anyway>>519372792The fuck are you on about dumbass, you need Wine and even then some software wont work on Linux
>>519371329I just realized I have never once in my life paid for windows or office.
>>519372921good news then, I'm glad you didnt have to pay the jew.today was a good day.
>>519372921>The fuck are you on about dumbass, you need Wine and even then some software wont work on LinuxYou think windows programs are compatible with gnu/linux, it's not.Wine is shit and you shouldn't run proprietary shit either way.Have fun with your malware.
>>519372935I once asked a guy at the store when I bought the computer if pirated Windows void the warranty and he said "if you go to the repair shop with the paid Windows they'll laugh at you"
>>519371427Mint.I also have a pair of thumbdrives that boot on linux lite.Once i get ram for my gaming rig ill run steam on it, i think thats what its called.
>>519371427Mint and AVLinux.
>>519372419Adoption of W11 is abysmally low. They fucked up. They will provide an additional year of Windows 10 security updates because no one will purchase a new PC just for Windows 11 if they already have a perfectly functional Windows 10 PC that cannot be (((upgraded))) to Windows 11. I think W11 will soon die out like W8 and be replaced by W12.
>>519371427CachyOS
I never understood this: why update?It's not secure, it's hasn't done anything for security issues since Vista, it's more likely to brick your computer than fix anything. Why?
>>519371329>extra year of forced pajeetcode updates
>>519372122>it's fucking free in EUYou have to make a Microsoft account and keep logged into a Microsoft. No thank you, I'll keep to my local account.
>Windows 10 support for your computer has ended>Register your microsoft account to continue receiving support for Windows 10. You won't receive the support if you log out with your microsoft account after registering.How incredibly jewish.
>>519371427Using CachyOS right nowAll my games work just fine so I'm happy
>>519371329Last months news dipshit.
>>519373677So even with the EU intervening, Microsoft still wins. Destroying anonymity by forcing people to always be logged into their Jeetshit account is one of their goals. After that will come tying it with your government-assigned digital ID
>>519373677If you log in to any site, say Reddit or X but you kill the tab then you're logged on their end but you're not connected with them, right ? You didn't access the page.
>>519371613You dont need to do shit actuallyThey overplayed their hand massively and they will roll out security updates for all till 2035There is no other way around it.
>>519371329One of the few based things EU has done
bill gates' money doesn't go to israel, it goes to vaccinate africans. given that /pol/ believes vaccinations are tools of murder, and loathes africans, this is actually your chance to contribute to the depopulation of the continent. unless of course, your beliefs change based on how much money it costs you.
>>519371329>GatesIt's a fucking pajeet now, retard.
>>519371613>>519372051Did your windows update notification change or is it still saying end of support?
>>519374457>unless of course, your beliefs change based on how much money it costs you.Yes.
>>519374672Did you try it
>>519371427Windows 7
>>519371329>Bill Gates:>>519374579This. Chuds like to get mad at him because vaccines and poo water and whatever but he hasn't been with the company for years now.
>>519371427Mint xfce
>>519374457>given that /pol/ believesI doubt anything you have to say following this disingenuous and out-group wording.
>>519371329>owning a computer The more you feed it the more it wants
>>519374672It doesn't say "end of support" and it's currently updating.You probably didn't select the ESU option like a FAGGOT.
>>519373945They're supposedly getting rid of the forced login soon(TM) since the EU threw a hissy fit.They're just taking their sweet-ass time so they can get as many people as possible to register.
>>519371427Endeavour
>>519371329>Mutts will, of course, pay and the money goes to Israel.It really do be like that
>>519375759Man Windows 7 was the best. Didn't you lose Firefox and other apps?
>>519376603Does it say "Your PC is enrolled to get Extended Security Updates"
already didsanctions my a$$
>>519371427debian 12 XFCE
>>519371427Arch for the last 13 years or so.
>>519375956>xfceGenuinely lobotomized.You can't even turn off mouse acceleration without xinput scripts.
>>519371329Well, the bigger news imo is that they have to provide windows 11 support for "manually" updated machines with old processors. They're not doing that in US.
>>519373945>>519376861Your account is local unless you access it. Just tell them to fuck off with adds to your email
I LOVE EU!
>>519378238Oh no, anyways.
>>519377610It says the opposite, but it's a bug.https://massgrave.dev/faq#why-is-the-windows-update-page-in-windows-10-enterprise-ltsc-2021-showing-your-device-is-no-longer-receiving-security-updates
>>519377610(it didn't show for me earlier but it appeared after I rebooted my PC)
>>519371329How much did microsoft pay this knob jockey to appear on national news to shill for win11?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN-vAGDPV3w
>>519378703Just noticed your flag.Carry on, XFCE does have that brazillian vibe of a fifty year old patchworked Ford Fiesta.
>>519372419they made windows 11 look more like apple shit because jeets think people want that
>>519379011Good. So you just put that command into the Power Shell, no accounts no nothing and it shows the proper message ?
>>519378556the eu is mad you wont let in floods of niggers and muslims
>>519371329The EU is the best thing that happened to the US tech sector being regulated at least a tiny bit.
I'm in EU and still had to use a MS account to get "free" updates so it wasnt free as they got my data.
>>519371427Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021
I don't care, I've been running LTSC since 2016 and I will switch (back) to Linux if it ever stops working. I use Windows 11 at work and that shit will never enter my home.
>>519374147i figured this would happenu cant play hardball when u don't have the advantage or anything close to itall it takes is one big company to get pissed and microlib will run for their lives, as they historically have demonstratedthere's probably still companies running windows 3.1 that microlib has to suck off
>>519379378they still spy on everyone and basically do what they want, it changes nothing.. what would be better is if you actually built your own alternatives, but the EU is too anti-business to actually do that
>>519371427Manjaro, it's Arch for CIS males
>>519371329>Why yes I do love it when governments can fuck private companies up the ass! This could totally never happen to a company that's not Microsoft btw
>>519371329>>519371516win 11 is exactly the same shit, with more bloat on top
>>519379747Hi Bill
>>519379084kek
>>519378238>filtered by xfceyikes
>>519371427Windows 11 because a single program I use is not compatible with Linux and I don’t have enough space for VMware.I recommend bazzite and steamOS, cachyOS if you want to nuke your PC
>>519371427Omarchy, the future of computing
>>519371427I'm running Arch Linux.
>>519371329naw tell EU to go fuck itself. pay up europoors
>>519379747>companies should only be able to fuck ME up the ass!
>>519375956.....that's not how you make mints... right?
>>519379977I'll probably use mouseless and some kind of tiling wm when I switch over to fulltime Linux.Fuck, I wanted to avoid systemd but it has become inevitable, I guess. No way in hell that I'll do my main system based on anything that isn't mainstream.
I can't wait to see Microsoft raped to death by the plague horde of jeets it's injected into its veins
I had to stop using Linux because Xorg couldn't handle multi-GPU super resolutions at the time and from what I understand, Wayland is even worse.
>>519381120Arcan will fix everything, if it ever does come out.Until then, you can either run an outdated relic or a system created with the attention to detail of your average neobroker app.
>>519379159>just put that command into the Power ShellYes, it downloads then runs a script before opening a menu. Select the "ESU" option and go from there.
>>519371329>>519371516>>519372122>>519372293>>519372419>enroll in extended security update plan for freeBut you still have to provide and setup a microsoft account to enroll in the extended security update plan.
>>519380999omarchy comes with everything preinstalled and it;s mouseless. Its different than anything else outthere but not a steep learning curve especially whjen the AI can help you with everything.
>>519371427I'm a macos fag but mostly because I develop apps for ios/android
>>519381363Nah I already did it the normie way>>519381492Oh no now they know my Suckmydick@gmail.com kek
>>519381604>omarchyWhat the fuck is that website? It has download links and changelog, but absolutely no information about what this shit even is.What the fuck is a DHH?>especially whjen the AI can help you with everythingNigger, I want to do less maintenance than at my day job, not become an AI's digital roomba.
>>519381661 Initial enrollment requires a Microsoft account: To enroll in the Windows 10 consumer ESU program, you must be logged into a Microsoft account on the device. This is how the ESU license is tied to your hardware. The system must periodically check your account: Even after the initial setup, you must sign in with that same Microsoft account at least once every 60 days to maintain your ESU eligibility. Switching invalidates your ESU: If you remove the Microsoft account and rely solely on a local account for an extended period, the ESU updates will cease. Microsoft will stop providing you with security and reliability fixes. Re-enrollment is necessary to restart ESU: To restore your ESU benefits, you would need to sign back into the same Microsoft account to re-enroll. Microsoft is trying to advertise and use PR to make the ESU program a win but it is really just like Windows 11.
>>519371329well I updated already so I missed out. I took over 8 hours. I don't get it if I do a distro update on linux its 2h at most and they tell all the shit thats being updated and changing while on windows it was a lagging piece of shit and constantly shitting itself. If only my parents didn't need excel I would have moved that pc to linux as well.
Ok, how do I make the ESU option appear?
BullshitIt's only free for companies.I've checked mine again and it still says support ended anr no option to extent
>>519381869You do understand that they were downloading updates to your computer for the past 10 years without the account ?
>>519371427Zuttbuntu
>>519371329Does it work with the trial version? No way i'm paying money fo rthis dead OS even if it's just a few bucks.
>>519382057Either go to settings > update and there's the enroll optionRequires local account. Give fake gmail, reject ads and don't sync when asked (if you don't want) or do that Power Shell thing that anon linkedI did the account thing idgaf
>>519382121What's a "trial version" ? Just check if it offers "enroll", see >>519382342
>>519373554Windows11 is more like a service pack to Windows 10. Windows11 has already been out for 3 or 4 years to boot. We probably will see Win12 soon-ish, but I bet it'll be going even harder on the AI shoved in to all the programs.
So why is MS demanding you sign in with a MS account to use the ESU? Like, what's the purpose?
>>519382582Like fucking kill yourself already I explained 5 times
>>519381661>>519382342>Requires local accountIt is no longer a local account. Your PC is tied to the microsoft account and will be required to be tied to the microsoft account to receive updates.>>519382582see my post here >>519381869It is PR rebranding. Think of extended support windows 10 as windows 11 with dressing.
>>519371427mint something i'm not computer minded enough to run the less user friendly versions. that said i will never go back to windows no matter what.
>>519371329Who even pays for shartcrosoft's OS? LolI pirate it since 2002.
>>519382689Your PC is already linked to MS because you are already receiving updates and your PC sends crash reports and shit to MS. You're just too stupid because you think giving them some fake mail will magically do something and you'll end up in a Jewish gulagWhen you go on internet your PC communicates with google and MS and all>It is no longer a local account. It's local unless you go to your account on their server. Disconnect internet and your account is still on your PC
>>519371329I use pirated windows and will never update. Their "security" spyware can suck my cock.
>>519371427Arch Linux
>>519371427gentoo ftw
>>519382070Updated your computer?
