Glad I could help.
I have to agree, I can’t say I like or want to use Windows but my experiences of random, unexplainable glitches, numerous hours of forum spelunking and the ever-present arrogant smarminess of a sizeable portion of the Linux userbase tell me which flavor of pain I prefer.
LTSC is extremely feasible for gaming and productivity. As Codilingus already said, you can get the ISO and activation from MASSGRAVE’s site.
Depending on your requirements, you’ll probably quickly figure out you need MS Store for one thing or another (the inconvenience of having pretty much everything removed) so you’ll need a tool like this to install the store and, you can use Chris Titus’ Wintool to turn off the spyware. It also has a program downloader built in with a long list of useful software to help speed up your initial setup process.
There’s a lot of bloat in the commercial versions of Windows, both 10 and 11. It’s easy to install the MS store on LTSC and for those who don’t need/want the features, the bloat is entirely pointless.
That’s not what was asked.
MS Store can be installed on LTSC quite easily so it’s very possible to still have the bloat-free version.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution though. OP has asked specifically for information regarding Windows and even specifically mentions Linux in the post so it’s fair to say they’re aware of it and choose to stay on Windows.
Surprised Reddit’s holding out at all.
And under the category of ‘That’s what she said’ we’ve got “Holy shit, that’s one hell of a tool!”
Street answer: Hellz yiih
Likely a contraction from a lack of activity while sleeping. Similar to how singers need to do vocal exercises to achieve the full range of what their voice can achieve wbich, in my experience, means being able to reach higher notes than lower notes.
Longer answer: easily yes.
It was actually the dQw4 I recognised but I’ll have to remember that one. Much easier.
Is that the Rick Roll link?
Even if specifically so it doesn’t make it to their legal department.
They’ll never stop us. That’s just a circle jerk fantasy of the corpos. May the seas be fair, the wind breezy and the grog plentiful 🏴☠️
Godzirraaaa
Fair enough. Hard to argue with that logic.
I have but one question: why?
We’ll see. Game development still generally has a lot of advancements it has yet to leverage so I’m comfortable with the choice I’ve made. I know about the tools to gut regular Windows but I assessed it would take me more effort to weed through than start with bare bones and add what little I wanted in. I’ve also tended to find every feature and minor update has inevitably messed with an object that is supposed to belong to me so I’m all aboard for not having to deal with that as often thanks to the long-term strategy of LTSC.
