So I’m trying to figure out a way to jip Microsoft. We’ve already got a way to activate windows for free, but LTSC images need to be available - because that’s where we get away from Microsoft’s bullshit.
Unless Microsoft removes access to DISM and gp, we’ll still be able to cut off that “always online” limb.
In some cases, that’s still not possible for m, although my personal laptop that I use daily runs Fedora Atomic.
But I also recently reinstalled another laptop with Windows 11, promptly stripped the whole thing of all kinds of apps and services, installed a bunch of audio software, libraries, etc, to prepare a machine to be show worthy.
When the day comes and Ableton ports Live to Linux proper is when I will forego a bulk of my VST’s, but running it under wine for real-time purposes is not reliable at all - so eh. There’s Bigwig, but I got like years of Max patches that I just can’t live without, and I don’t need just a DAW. In fact, if you ask me to leave Live, I’ll tell you to fly a kite.
Same issue it’s always been, unfortunately, that vendors do not support the Linux desktop. Go bother the vendors about platform supoort. I do, frequently. In fact, time for another ticket - and this one is going to be political.

You want to get rid of Microsoft’s BS while still using Microsoft? I think you already know the only answer is Linux.

Thanks for the reminder.

What the fuck are you talking about?
That sounds like an AI bot summarizing an average Lemmy user’s rant about FLOSS and Linux.

Do you think any of that makes any sense? If you read what you’ve written here, can you make sense of that yourself?
Dude are you okay?
