"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Congrats! When I first installed Mint it was like being reminded of how computers are supposed to work.

I've been on it since December. Absolutely love it. Everything about it has been an improvement over the Windows experience, even things (like my OG Vive and VKB/STECS HOTAS) that I was sure were going to be a pain.

if you must use microslop then theres already a version like that called LTSC.

I doubt the realization substantively changes their course of action.

In light of this here’s how to turn your shitty win11 into a modern win7 with these steps:

  1. Win11 Debloat Script
  2. ShutUp10++
  3. StartisBack/StartallBack

Optional 4 (if you have win11 pro or enterprise): Take command by going through all of your group policies in the GP Editor

Optional 5: Tron Script

… And then turn off automatic updates

Or just install linux. Preferably one that doesn’t use systemd.

[–] waz@feddit.uk 4 points 2 hours ago

Install any distro and ignore the systemd/wayland/x11 debates

Good for those who need Microslop compatibility, but seems like more effort than just loading up linux.

I’m unfortunately a person who has to deal with kernel level anti cheat due to my preference in games, this was the top level route I took to try medicate my hardware.

who has to... due to my preference

Re-read what you wrote.

Nobody "has to" play those games. When doing so comes at the cost of property rights and self-respect (let alone the increasing time wasted on workarounds), is it really worth it?

And be skeptical of the programs you use to debloat as it is a known vector to injecting malware.

[–] Bwaz@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

and I don't totally trust the value of setting turned-off updates. MS has demonstrated long ago who they think is the true owner of your computer

[–] rndmdsplyname@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

I recommend blocking all MS at the firewall level, there’s just nothing there for any of us.

[–] rndmdsplyname@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 hours ago

Absolutely. If you execute a script without reviewing it, you do so at your own risk! But, operating from a mindeet that the win11 debloat and tron scrips haven’t undergone supply chain attack or their creators haven’t gone rogue, these scripts help you deslop
