    Microsoft blocks workaround that enabled users to create local accounts as part of the OOBE installer.

    20€ for a grey market key is not exactly a massive expense. That said, I already said that you can disable a lot of the stuff from group policies that people consider annoyance since Windows 10 where as Home is much more locked down. This alone already makes Pro worth it to me. Pendragon covered...

    I do not disagree with any of your points. We are just pointing out that if anyone is a "power user" they are doing a disservice for themselves if they get a Home version of Windows. But yes, Windows has become so user hostile that I am really wishing for Linux to get their shit together and get...

    Then this discussion doesn't concern you. But as Linux user you are familiar with having absolute freedom over your operating system, something Windows also used to have but is slowly being eroded. Pro version still has SOME semblance of user freedom and control but Home has none unless you...

    Microsoft blocks workaround that enabled users to create local accounts as part of the OOBE installer.

    You can install what ever version you think is profitable for your customers, but the question is what you (clearly a poweruser) use in your OWN system? If you use Home edition then you are at the mercy of Microsoft. Pro version atleast allows you to have local account without work arounds but...

    Google walks back AI search results

    DuckDuckGo, ChatGPT search and Microsoft Copilot down due to Bing API issue

    If Duckduckgo ever released a search engine that uses Google for their results instead of Bing, that would be a perfect name for it. 🤣

    DuckDuckGo, ChatGPT search and Microsoft Copilot down due to Bing API issue

    I was just an hour ago wondering why DDG was not working. I *gasp* had to use Google.

    LG C2 as a pc monitor...ycbcr444 or rgb?

    Ycbcr and RGB should look the practically the same and the image should not dramatically change when switching between the two. Technically RGB Full range is the best choice because you have the most color steps available to you but difference is slight. If your image is washed out and dull (or...

    Winamp's source code to be released publicly on September 24

    I hope someone adds Spotify and Tidal integration. I'd rather use nostalgic Winamp than their PC apps. 👍

    Wipes or special cloth for VR lenses?
