>purposely gimping your PC and denying yourself games because of a false sense of security
Why?
>>341263803
because you don't want anything to do with xbox.
I'll get it when Win 7 REALLY becomes obsolete, I guess.
>>341263803
everything will be avaiable to play on 7.
its going to be most likely changing some line in code.
>>341264224
The upgrade is only free for another month.
I'll get it when W7 stops recieving support.
I'm not going to upgrade on a pirated version and get myself tagged for microsoft to do anything to my pc
no way
>>341264595
Sureeeee it is..
with how hard they were pushing it, there's something important their gaining from it.
Theyl'l offer it as long as your willing to accept it because somehow your getting ripped off.

>>341264595

>>341263803
>>341265073
If you pirate 10 you dont get access to the winstore to get your games
>>341263803

>>341265137

Eh, I have W7 as my daily driver, and W10 on a separate HDD just for any games that come to it.
>>341263803
I'll upgrade when someone manages to pirate Windows Store games
>>341265453
>>341265529
enjoy never playing any multiplayer anything then
>>341264826
They can't really do anything but sue for copyright infringement and disable Windows 10 at a later date.
It's illegal for them to do any damage to your personal data or hardware or deny you access to it via something like encryption, e.g. ransomware, if that's what you are worried about. That would just be inviting a class action lawsuit they are guaranteed to lose and fines and compulsion to disengage such activity by the government too.
>>341264595
it means im not gonna get notified anymore? nice
But anon, Windows 10 IS gimping your PC
>>341265652
>What is hamachi, what is steamfix games
Holy shit what a underage faggot
I have over 200 hours of online SFIV playtime on a pirated copy
What games are exclusive to Windows store? I need to know so I can sour grapes or not.
>>341264595
Who the fuck cares?
I had a pirated Win 8 and got a free upgrade to a legit 10, I'll take it. I could still easily be using Win 7 but it really doesn't make that much of a difference.
>>341265774
What piece of shit program were you trying to run? Something not built properly? The only time I have seen that is when the files I installed were just fucking broken.
PCfriends, are you psyched for Crackdown 3?
I know you're not, but you should be. The first one was an open-world that was just fun. Adding tons of destruction and shit to it is a great idea.
I was absolutely not going to upgrade to Windows 10, but now I'm sort of considering it. This is one of those B-tier series that is actually great (like Red Faction Guerrilla).

It's not because of security, it's because of privacy. Just like I wouldn't instal cameras all around my house (bathroom bedroom included) and give access to them to random company, just like I won't instal Win10.
If they'll drop telemetry and ads, I'll use it.
If not, I'll just use Win7 ot Win8 without telemetry updates till I can, then switch to linux.
>>341266747

They can do it, its on the Eula, but so far, they haven't done shit.
They just uninstall incompatible software that use bad kernel drivers, but I have been using everyting pirated no problem, even quantum break.
If they didn't force it down my throat I'd consider it
I only feel bad about not being able to play Sea of Thieves. But it might be shit so we'll see.
Can Windows 10 actually:
>detect pirated games
>delete programs without my consent
>sense when I'm emulating and fuck shit up
>call the cops if I watch Yuru Yuri?
Wait wait wait, if you have a pirate W10 you can't access window store?

Any security expert will tell you it's a really, really bad idea to actually record passwords themselves. What you want to store is the result of encrypting the password using an encryption method which is designed to not be reversible.
Protip: If any any service or website you sign up to can actually tell you what your password is instead of only allowing you to reset it it means they store your password and are therefore incompetent when it comes to security.

I don't think that legal.
Well, when I did ethics as part of a software engineering course at uni many years ago they told us it's very illegal to do that. You cannot punish people just because you believe they did something wrong. Shit, you can't even do it if you KNOW they did something wrong.
That is purely the domain of the government and though they do grant that power under certain conditions, e.g. some private organizations can issues fines and the government will enforce them, I'm pretty sure software developers don't have that power yet.
But, I could be wrong...
The problem with Windows 10 is that you can't even turn off all the shit. Even if you do all the right settings, fixes and edit the registry. You STILL can't remove it all.
This thing is literally malware
>>341264595

>Fuck boss not everyone has updated yet, we're not making a maximal profit, wat do ?
>Just say you extended the offer, it'll make us look good in the process
Repeat after every few months.
Get it now ? If I want to upgrade I'll be able to do so until they release Windows 11, which will be the new free one after that
By the time DX12 becomes standard the next Windows will be out. Even then I highly doubt there will be large amount of games that are DX12 only.
>>341270751
It's just like whatsapp, just wait a few hours at most and it will extend your suscription. And to think some people pay for it..
>>341270515
mmmm. spend 300, get xbox
don't spend 300, games right there on pc anyways
how is it the same thing again? its not like the win10 machine is the only pc i have
I remember when they said you HAD to upgrade to Vista to use DX10
and everyone collectively said "no thanks"
then lo and behold some time later you miraculously didn't need Vista for DX10

Christ this thread is full of fucking autism. 10 is literally the best one to date. I bet you fags were the same fags that were screaming "Muh XP!" all the way up to Windows 7.

Why even upgrade if you don't have the answers to these questions yourself?
You're eventually going to run into a game that requires W10 with no workaround. When THAT happens, upgrade. Until then, upgrading is pointless in the literal sense for you.

>>341264595

>>341272869
I wonder who this is
Why would I? It threw out everything good with 7 into the trash in favor of touchscreen shit. Not to mention the only reason they're giving it out for free is because they can datamine you, releszse your information and target specific ads to you right to your desktop if they want.
>>341273283
I literally just said not to upgrade to Windows 10 unless you absolutely have to.
>>341271978
the second you upgrade to windows 10 you'll notice all the programs and services you're used to running just fine on older OS'es no longer work as intended and in some cases not at all.
then you'll do searches to fix the problem, then you'll find out that since it just came out the required apis that run your shit isn't out yet because MS are cunts, then you'll sit back and relax as you realise you've gimped yourself out of the stuff you ran just fine for no good reason and took a botnet up the ass while you wait for shit that ran fine 5 years ago to catch up
