If you going to run it in a VM with 1024x768 resolution, obviously it will look like shit you cum guzzlers.

Looks like shit. But the scaling works great with the "retina" displays, can't disagree with that.

>font rendering
That's because you need to purchase a Surface with HiDPI, goy!
Meanwhile GNU/Linux allows you to tweak the font rendering to your liking. Feels good to use a vastly superior OS that does not treat its users as idiots.
>>51439479
I don't know what you are talkink about.
>>51439528
How come only idiots use it?
>>51439528
Okay granted Linux renders fonts better. That alone is not enough to attract mainstream users with vast software demands and proprietary drivers that actually work.
>>51439165
that's nasty
>>51439436
Pf, that's really the true test of a rendering engine. Everything can look good when you got a 1000k resolution because hinting etc becomes completely irrelevant
>>51439524
actually you can, albeit with other ivy bridge cpus.
you could get an ivy mobile i7 in there, since the "M" cpus are socketed, not BGA
>>51439561

Prove me wrong
>>51439561
I don't care about mainstream users desu, I care about me. Things like font rendering are important to me because I spent a lot of time in front of a screen and good font rendering makes it much easier. And I don't want to get presbyopia in my 30s.

The new minimize, maximize and close button fucking trigger me. Why are they all different sizes / out of align with each other?
>>51439640
Waste of money.
>>51439533
So smudgy.
>>51439668
it just appears smudgy because the letters are fuller than with your rendering. the truth is, though, they look closer to what they're SUPPOSED to look (by the creator of the font).
you've just had hard-edged pixelated crap punch holes into your retina for a little too long.
look at this
>>51439495
beautiful.
Migrating from win7, what are some essential things I should do to disable the botnet?
>>51439749
Install gentoo
>>51439749
winstall bentoo
>>51439754
I'm dualbooting
>>51439749
if youre really that concerned, install tinywall and whitelist everything one by one
>>51439770
clean wipe then install bentoo as your sole OS
>>51439724
With a high PPI your font-rendering is probably better. But I think WIndows is best for low PPI.
Macs looks horrible with low PPI, but fantastic with HIGH.
>>51439790
Nah Ubuntu looks much better on low ppi displays than Windows does.
>>51439790
yeah no
>>51439749
nothing will for sure disable the botnet, you can do some placebo stuff though
>>51439813
This hurts my eyes. It's smudge heaven.
>>51439814
Will installing a tin-foil hat on my head make it better?
>>51439823
as i said, it being smudgier is you misinterpreting what it looks like. its just fuller. here's a close up
>>51439749
1. set group policy to disable one drive
2. set feedback to basic
3. disable Cortana and online search
4. adjust privacy settings to your needs
5. use a local account instead of MS account
rest are memes and tin foil conspiracies.

how do I check which update I'm on?
it says I'm on the latest version but nothing's different, and I haven't updated in a month or so
>>51439956
And it won't prevent me from pirating shit?
>>51439165
OS X does actually but thanks
>>51439981
What do you think anon? I would not even torrent shit on Linux, it ain't safe like the old days.
>>51440005
b-but I'm not even in freedom land
Rules here don't regulate that kind of stuff man.
I'm just concerned about microshaft telling me I can't use program X or listen to music Y because it hasn't been purchased from an authorized vendor™
>>51440026
No one can guarantee the outcome of torrents on any OS, that depends on how proactive you are, vpn usage, encryption and ip filter lists.
I am starting to think that torrent clients like uTorrent are actually being developed by these movie studios to trick people into downloading shit.
>>51439981
How would it provent you from pirating shit, you mongoloid? You can use torrent just like you always could on any OS. Just don't upload your torrented shit to onedrive (you shouldn't upload pirated stuff to any cloud service, regardless of what OS you use).
>>51440067
uTorrent is an actual confirmed botnet. i mean it was used to mine bitcoins for the company. how do people still not know that
don't use fucking utorrent it's not even a good program

Yes. ClearType is beautiful, isn't it? Well, now with Windows 10 you CAN'T FUCKING USE IT ON ABOUT HALF YOUR SYSTEM. That's right, everything that uses Metro renders using anti-aliased but not subpixel rendered fonts. You know, like in Win98.
>>51447275

>>51447275
Greyscale rendering is better. Your post just proves you know nothing.
>>51449056
Evidence for this? Objectively, subpixel rendering triples the horizontal resolution it can use on an LCD at native resolution, if it's set to use the correct RGB subpixel order. Subjectively, subpixel rendered text looks less jaggy than grayscale smoothed text.
>>51449105
ClearType can't handle screen rotation. And greyscale rendering makes text on high DPI beautiful.
>>51438680

>>51449140
>ClearType can't handle screen rotation.
I'm gonna call bullshit on this, based on this picture of a Word 2007 textbox with ClearTyped vertical text. What is screen rotation basically but vertical text? Sure it would take a bit of framework stuff to make it work, but the technology is clearly there in ClearType itself.
>And greyscale rendering makes text on high DPI beautiful.
As would subpixel rendering. Large ClearType text is just as pretty as large grayscale, though the advantage of ClearType is far less visible.
>>51449205
ufkcing kill yourself you god damn autist
>>51449213
Just admit you're wrong, man. Only pussies resort to ad hominems like that.
How do I get the update? Still stuck on 10240 here.
>>51449236
You're replying to a different anon. ClearType is unsuitable for mobile devices and devices with dynamically rotating screens.
>>51449237
Settings, update and recovery, update, check now, etc.

>>51449213
>>51449236
>>51449249
oh am i laffin
>>51449254
Been doing that for the last few days, nothing.
I'm on Enterprise edition, does that change anything?
>>51449270
LTSB? If so the update isn't out for that version.
>>51449283
Regular enterprise, cracked with MTK.
Do I need to opt into the insider program?
>>51449249
How is it unsuitable for rotatable screens if it can handle both vertical and horizontal? It can simply disable itself if the pixel order is unknown or something other than the usual, or DPI is high.
Even if it's not worth much on mobile, not everything is a mobile device. ClearType is still great on desktops and laptops. Especially laptops, what with 1366x768 screens being so common.

>>51447275

Wrong. In Win98 fonts at least looked good. In Win10 fonts look blurry and ugly.
>>51449249
>ClearType is unsuitable for mobile devices and devices with dynamically rotating screens.
Assumming this is true, which probably isn't, why doesn't Microsoft at least allow me to set if I want a fucking mobile phone font rendering or good old ClearType on a normal LCD screen? There's no reason besides treating its users as idiots. Feels good to have switched to GNU/Linux, where at least I can adjust the font rendering, instead of using the one size fits all proprietary model.
>>51450273
Greyscale rendering works fine on all screens.
>>51449787
Mang r u retarted? sb-e has never been implemented in laptops why would you care abouy battery life
>>51450822
It "works" on all screens, it looks awful on any non-HiDPI displays.
how do i get the best font rendering on windows 8
gdipp seems pretty useless
>>51451517
You use the OS font rendering. You buy a high-PPI screen and scale the DPI accordingly.
>>51438680
Update still doesnt show up for me. epic.
