Id disagree. Its not my responsibility to close all their doors that are accessible to the public. Microsoft provided all the tools to use their software without their involvement. As a US citizen, I’m liable for my own negligence and/or ignorance. Corporations are pegally protected under corporate personhood so the same liabilities affect them too.
Not disagreeing but this isnt a form of pirating. They didnt break shit, they didnt hack shit and they didnt exploit shit. Microsoft built their entire DRM software in a way that was able to be recerse engineered.
Again, not contradicting anything you recommended. I just wanted to point this out for any lurkers because I cant encourage this option enough for anyone forced into putting up with Windows. You are actually uaing the same activation codes that microsoft themselves generate and distribute to their customers.
I can confirm it works for Windows 10, 11, for any iteration of 23h or 24h, all Office applications, both individually and packaged, visual studio, and I wanna say Adobe but that one im not 100% on.
If your pirating which for end users is the only way to get LTSC, just run Windows Server.
Its been over a year and as I said above im going off memory but I think I went with IoT Enterprise because of how nominal the differences were from Windows Server but also wanted to check out the IoT Enterprise because my cousin was starting his own fabrication/manufacturing company at that time and it was a good opportunity to see what his options were for future scalability that came with IoT Enterprise.
I mean, not to be a dick but, if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and expires after the year like the trial activation method… it must be a free trial duck lol. /s
Aka im all out of ideas or recommendations.
Yeah but there were methods for activating it with a trial activation code that only lasted a year I think, a method for activating ut offline permanently, and also a method for activating it using an annual reactivating activation code that, again *******was set it and forget it for as long as windows 11 enterprise will be supported
Na there are a bunch of caveats and different types of Windows 10/11 Enterprise and specifically IoT Enterprise.
Go back to their wiki pages cuz you are guna have to re-do the activation process and should nake sure you are setting it up per the provided instructions. Ive had windows 11 Enterprise IoT running for over a year now and its the best exclusive to Windows/Microsoft decision I ever made.
Microsoft makes a relatively great product in its Enterprise line, stripping most of the spy/bloatware out and allowing simple user configuration settings changes to kill the rest, plus all the advertised tools/software that only comes with an Enterprise shit.
Then they strip all the useful tools out, facefuck as much bloatware as they can jizz into your PC while buttfucking even more spyware into your PC raw dog style with so much breaking of everything with every fuckin update they release and call that fucking bastard Windows 10/11 Home Edition.
Im sorry I forgot what this conversation was about buuuuutttt fuck Windows in their fucking fuckhole is the TLDR.
Edit: This is all going entirely off memory wirh a huge iirc asterisks on it. I definitely remember having to do the set up over and over again, tho, figuring out which version was the best option for my use. I got the bitch set up now with local account, zero microsoft account affiliation and dont update fuckall unless its severe severe severe security risk. Its the best and most consistent my PC has ever ran.
Homie, I hate to break it to you but you are only outsmarting the idiots who defined what the AI is blocking. Look at how many times Trump repeats the same fuckin buzz phrases. The same idiots prolly gave the AI engineers a list of fuckin phrases like “does trump have dementia?” And the engineers are prolly like, “well this is fuckin stupid so were guna comply… maliciously… mwhuhahaha” then they just define the AI parameters to ignore prompts verbatim to what was on the list and nothing more. Im definitely not one of those peeps but id fist bump them if thats what they did lol.
Thought the same thing too… until I learned how to use it lol
I killed the js to remove the pop up blocking the article but Im not sure if this is the entire article:
The AI bubble is 17 times the size of the dot-com frenzy — and four times the subprime bubble, analyst says
Artificially low interest rates have stimulated investment into AI that has hit scaling limits, says research firm

It’s not just a bubble but an epically sized one, an analyst argues. Photo: Getty Images
For good reason, it feels that the only major discussion in markets is whether AI is in a bubble or whether it’s actually the early innings of a revolutionary phrase.
So here’s another one, decidedly from the pessimistic camp. It’s a take from independent research firm the MacroStrategy Partnership, which advises 220 institutional clients, in a note written by analysts including Julien Garran, who previously led UBS’s commodities strategy team.
Am I missing the real article or is this the entirety of it?
To add to this point, kids and especially babies are dumb as fuck. They literally will try to do shit that will fucking kill them. You cant turn your head for a second without them trying to crawl out a window or lick the terminals of a car battery. Id panick if I stopped to play with baby in crib with charger in hand that I left in reach of baby when I left to take a quick piss only to come back to a scene where the baby got the cable wrapped around its blanket and neck and couldnt get it undone in time or knew cpr to save the baby.
I mean for all the bullshit he spews this is the one time in my book where it actually qualifies as a case of “politician said politically motivating shit to get elected and didnt do any of it once elected.” I guess at this point it just sounds more stat quo for politicians than his usual shit like “bleach cures covid”
I misread the article. So I removed the irrelevant comment.
Woooooosh
Im pretty sure the op you replied to is hoping for the five-oh to start taking GPT’s advice to commit suicide… meaning they want dead cops not for cops to intervene. Not the classiest comment you replied to, which is why I think it woooooshed right over your head.
Na. Used throwaway email tied to nothing. Selected the options that applied to me. Left them a cordial “fuck you and the horse you rode in on” feedback letter in the message box and submitted. No verification needed. The only chance for defense is giving them a number they can measure of people who will switch devices if they continue to pursue dev verification.
Serious question, what is wrong with the headline? The article is only 4 paragraphs long and the headline basically sums what is written in the article. Id get it if you thought the article itself was shitty but I stared at the headline long enough without seeing anything wrong so I gotta ask, what am I missing?
They should take it as a huge honor since the last dildo throwing fad was directed at Tom Brady, arguably the greatest athlete to dominate their sport in the history of sports. These dildos must be paying homage to the WNBA greats. /s
Dude is having a full blown mental breakdown at this point and recently talked about it.
How about having some compassion for what the dude is going thru and not trivialize it into some political/anti-cop rhetoric? Idk maybe bring attention to the mental health issues men are raised and taught to hide. Or atleast make a pit-stop there before making all the attention about cops being shitty. Just a thought.
The screen shot is what I see from the link provided. Where do you see B-tech distribution? Or what am I doing wrong to not see where you are getting that from?
Am I missing something? What does your link provide that supports your claim?
You’re picking up what im putting down lol. Didn’t mean to say I was disagreeing with what youre saying just in this case especially:
Where I’ve paid for each new pc build to just have a blank slate and not carry over my digital footprint for microsoft from one build to the next. Also, tho, im not taking what isnt already mine, im just using a work around for dealing with microsoft’s atrocious customer service.
Again, not saying this will hold up in a court of law, jist saying I dont lose any sleep over it.
Bonus rationalization: fuckin outlooks locked in and un-adjustable junk mail filters have auto filtered Microsoft own emails for upcoming annual Office invoices to my junk folder that I used to rarely check before getting slammed with over a $100 charge for Office eliminating my ability to use the email reminders as notification to cancel my subscription cuz even if you paid for a year of Office but wanna cancel a month into the year so you dont forget, microsoft says naaaaaaa you lose the remaining 11 months of paid software access.
