thinking of buying windows 10...
am i making a horrible horrible mistake?
>>52961325
fucking torrent off a respectable private tracker, you dumb mongoloid, and run it on a shitbox you don't care about.
for what purpose?
>>52961351
>promoting piracy
>>52961351
i am not part of a private tracker though...
>>52961325
If you need to buy it, just buy it for $20 off one of the legit websites selling keys, they arent hard to find, if you cant find one, dont come back.
I you play lots of video games I guess not.
Also if you use the adobe stuff.
>>52961364
I am having an existential crisis... why am I using GNU / Linux, when Windows can do everything and more. I can still support FOSS by submitting bug reports and donating money.
But I can use the proprietary stuff as well.
That's why.
Just torrent a cracked copy of w7 and then upgrade. It's the easiest way in my experience.
>>52961387
i dont
>>52961391
Unless vidya gayms there is no purpose
Otherwise pirate it
>>52961366
Fuck off to Reddit.
Giving Microsoft free money is indirectly destroying technology hobbyism.
The evaluation copy is free for 90 days I believe.
>>52961371
the torrents listed here look less shady than most from the public trackers: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15048420/
try 'em out. good luck.
>>52961398
Microsoft told that this way you won't get valid license for Win10. When they stop supporting free changeover you will get screwed and your key will be invalid.
>>52961464
>http://paste.ubuntu.com/15048420/
thanks friend :)
>>52961444
this and trips.
>>52961464
But hese are Win10 not Win7 onii-chan.
>>52961325
If you want spyware on your computer then I can provide you that for half the price.

>>52961617
I can disable them though right.. It's not open source, but I can disable the botnet by clicking checkboxes right?

You made a mistake making this bait thread because I just doxxed you. You'll be receiving about 10 boxes of elephant shit, 30 orders of pizza from surrounding area, and a horse dildo from amazon.
>>52961659
no you have to do reg edits after any update
>>52961659
Of course. Just go to Settigns, and unckeck everything. /g/ ALWAYS overreacts. Always!
>>52961725
>unckeck everything.
You can an official Windows 10 ISO using their tool. Then activate with something like KMSpico or KMSAuto Net Portable
>>52961325
No son, you are making the right choice
>>52961718
what's a reg edit? Is it the configuration similar to about:config of Firefox?
Should not be too much of a problem if that's the case.
>>52961756
wtf - why would they turn it back on?
>>52961817
Because fuck your choice and freedom - Satya Nadella
>>52961325
yes u are
>>52961653
But pirated Win10 = double botnet
So it would be better to get pirated Win7, then obtain free Win10 and reinstall.
Thsiw ay you have only one botnet on your PC.
>>52961920
Yeah, I would never ever install a pirated version of windows - it could have a bootkit and you would never know.
Go away
>>52961962
rude - this is a technology board, and I have a genuine question - even if it's not of interest to everyone.
>>52961325
yee
I want to get Windows 10 Pro on my MacBook Pro but would rather not pay for shit they are giving everyone else.
>>52961325
If you really want botnet10, then just buy a win7 key for $10 and upgrade it for free.
>>52961981
Get. the. fuck. out.
>Paying for spying you
>>52962098
No. You are infringing on my freedoms. You get the fuck out.
>>52962076
True OEM keys doesn't work.
keys sold as OEM later in their pipeline work but might get blocked.
I use it. Install Anti-Beacon to disable privacy settings. The only downside is that you aren't able to choose what updates get installed and they never even warn you. Could be in the middle of work or something and it will just randomly restart for updates. Doesn't even bother waiting to 1AM or whatever it used to be before. But yeah, don't buy it. I would personally stick to Windows 8.1 if you are buying a new OS. If you don't need Adobe, .NET software (NinjaTrader), etc. then go with Xubuntu or Linux Mint instead.
>>52962106
Underrated
>>52962197
>Anti-Beacon
does this work?
>>52962197
>hen go with Xubuntu or Linux Mint instead.
have been using Ubuntu for 8 - 10 years - various "flavors". It's fucking annoying that I can't get Intellij to have a stupid desktop icon - it's annoying that I can't auto-update atom.
>>52962106
>>52962228
if the spying can be disabled - I'm okay walking the line
its only 105 burger dollars on newegg m8
>>52962238
It's just a quick tool that automatically disables everything in the settings that sends data to Microsoft. It's one of the few trustworthy tools that does this. Most "disable privacy in Windows 10" tools install a bunch of spyware themselves. Ironic.

That blog doesn't even understand how websites work. Made me chuckle.
>>52962355
you serious nigga?
why the fuck should windows transmit http requests to an msn property?
Not excusing them, but whats the difference between sending everything to apple/google vs microsoft?
All are faceless giants at this point.
>>52962317
You are really dumb, aren't you?
>>52962395
but i don't send anything to apple or google

Wasn't talking about that. Was talking about the website the article is on. That blog is so full of agenda and misinformation it isn't funny.

>>52961325
No, Windows⢠10 is more secure and more safe.
>>52962489
>You know that the computer still functions without a key, right?
Yea, with warning on your desktop and then stops working after 2 weeks.
Been there done that.

Everyone cna crack Winblows in a matter of seconds.
... but we want a legit copy, a legal one.
>>52961325
Yes, Windows 10 PRO is much better than Home.
Atleast you can use hyper-v.
>>52961391
Which thing do you want to run? I bet it's a game, even if you say Photoshop.
>>52964484
>home
>no hyper-v
Are you shitting me?... it's 2016, home vesions fo OSs should have support for virtalization.
That's just tryign to squize more money from customers, judaism at its finest..
>>52964702
Yup, I bought a laptop a few weeks back that came with Home by default and when I went to try and use hyper-v i found out it's a Pro+ feature only now.
For now I use virtualbox since $100 isn't worth it right now.
>>52961325
I too want to get my hand on some windows.
I heard Windows ME is a good choice but last time I ordered a CD-ROM on the information highway, it took several weeks till it arrived. Maybe if I stroke my penis for a while I can upload a new service pack for my UEFI if you know what I mean ;)
>>52961464
anyone got some trustworthy Windows 7 cracked torrents? I'd like to try that scam with getting free winblows 10.
>>52964729
To be honest, Virtual Box does an excellent job. Enable VT-x or the AMD counterpart on your mobo and enjoy it.
>>52964484
>>52964702
what's the deal with Hyper-V? I've used it twice and found it to suck. Virtualbox is much better and (pirated) VMWare is far better than both.
Am I missing something about Hyper-V?

Does this even work?
>>52966172
How do i run windows loader without having windows already?
why not stick with win7?
>>52966172
Can i do it on virtual machine? It says it modfiies bios, will it brick my PC?
>He wants to pay to be the product!
>>52966261
It modifies the bootloader to inject an OEM key into memory. That is not your BIOS. The bootloader is located on your boot disk. It should work in a VM.
