How does it work for games? And how easy is it to get rid of before I try it out?
>A: At the moment, VxKex is not intended for games, so you will probably have limited success. I hope to address this shortcoming in a future release.

Ancient GPU, though.
It's the fastest GPU that will work on Windows 7.
Sounds like it's time to start winning.
So much 11 hate would disappear if they went back to the Glass aero style. Why did they drop it? Why are they trying to emulate a really shitty looking knockoff of MacOS in 11?
Only if you are an intel/nvidia cuck.
7 GODS can't stop winning.
genuinely based, I hate tendies and nintendo. And hope emulation of their games continue forever. But this guy fricking over the yuzu devs is based 'cause they've always been cancerous trash. Frick them
>I hate tendies and nintendo
I like Nintendo games and I love pirating them but this was a good thing. The israeli behavior from the Yuzu team was disgusting and as someone who's an emulation enthusiast in general, I don't want to see that shit in the emulation scene
>The israeli behavior from the Yuzu team
How so? Never bothered with Yuzu or anything emulation in years so I dunno what's up.
>patreon where you have to pay for early access to newer versions
>Tears of the Kingdom leaks and nowhere near officially out yet
>make people PAY for a version of the emulator SPECIFICALLY patched to run the game BEFORE it's out
The Yuzu team was beyond moronic
Why don't people get it? If it's dubious but you don't make money of it then it's fine.
The same shit happened to someone who offered a paid pokemon mod for palword.
Incredible that autism is powerful and idiotic at the same time, god damn.
I mean they've more or less abandon their shitshow that is Citra emulator. I bought a real 3DS because piracy is an option on it.
They deserve it.
>people still lying about this
Does Nintendo pay you?
You're forgetting how israeliteed the legal system is.
Yuzu is a company; a front. The people can go do the exact same thing no fricks given under a new name.
>I hate tendies and nintendo.
based they should have their own containment board. Its brandhomosexualry nothing to do with games.
i agree, quarantine people that discuss video games away from you culture war twitter screencap posting filth
Good off you frick then cancer, you won't be missed or your cancerous trolling tendie brandhomosexualry
>/vc/ - Video Game Consoles

You hate and wish them to continue make games worth pirating forever instead of going bankrupt? Nice compliment.
They don't make games worth pirating, let's not kid ourselves here.
Same, never liked any of their franchises beyond Classics like SMB3 and SNES World.
Modern nintendo is for normies.
yes, this guy is definitely the reason nintendo knows about switch emulation lmao
>phukyuzu is the sole reason yuzu got sued
based....?

>emailing a bunch of randos in nintendo just to let them know yuzu exists, something that they would already be aware of just from using the fricking internet
this is the most moronic entitled fricking shithead of a person i have come across in a long ass while. i dont fricking care what paranoid excuse he has for windows, holding all the way back to windows fricking 7 is survivalist fallout bunker schizo bullshit. this person has not seen another human being in years. he really should have just used linux at this point if hes going to fricking commit but if course, he’s probably too moronic to

As a big FRICK YOU, it is absolutely BASED though.
It's not like they can track phukyuzu down unless he leaks his own identity
You mean like by paying them money online?
>this is the most moronic entitled fricking shithead of a person i have come across in a long ass while. i dont fricking care what paranoid excuse he has for windows, holding all the way back to windows fricking 7 is survivalist fallout bunker schizo bullshit.
truth although I have a few win 7 and even xp gaming laptops and they hold up fine for that they are, have win 2k desktops and win 10 laptops etc, all of them except win 8
>holding all the way back to windows fricking 7 is survivalist fallout bunker schizo bullshit
You make it sound like it's a bad thing just because some people don't choose to walk willingly into the mushroom cloud with you
Anyone who phrases things like they happened TO them (I was abandoned/You abandoned us) are professional victims. He wasn't left behind, he had several fricking years, and multiple pathways, to resolve his issue.

League of Legends :^)
damn installing windows 7 right now
I tried LoL on W7 like a couple years ago and it worked fine. What did they do to it since?
Can someone help?
i moved to linux just cuz i hate win 10.
How can I install inwdows 7 on new intel 12-13th gen and still get drivers too
I haven't found a driver for newer LAN drivers so USB or PCIe is your best choice.
Only other thing you need is USB drivers.
Wouldn't recommend using an NVMe drive but it can work.
If you have intel cpu with cuck core just use win11
Psyop to make people upgrade. Zero difference in core behaviour, render times, benchmark scores, ironically worse gaming fps (win11).
I'm going to use win 10 2016 LTSB thougheverbeit
windows 11 has so many bugs that its just not functional as windows 7 or even 10.
You have to constantly restart to fix bugs that freeze your files or crashes from loading image/video icons, lots of odd hang ups that crash your PC
windows 11 was also lead by a poojeet and israelite prostitute. It explains why nothing works and all their efforts are going to stupid shit desktop users don't even want or need. Lots of useful features were also removed like thumbnail icons over simplified garbage especially hiding context menu features with another context menu that requires you to regedit to fix.
They truly fricked it
Don't worry Windows 12 will fix everything sir
>They truly fricked it
Is there really no other way than IoT LTSC 2021 if you want the "just werks" wangblows option?
No, Win7 isn't just werks if you have modern hardware and an NVME drive
>Win7 isn't just werks if you have modern hardware and an NVME drive
why do people keep saying this shit? if you put the drivers on the install media and tell the installer about it it just werkz
no supported drivers for hardware, modded drivers (if exists) hit or miss 🙁
>no supported drivers for hardware
which hardware? you dont need to install cpu drivers matey
>you dont need to install cpu drivers matey
That's not how it works. Try running Windows XP on a 5600x and see what happens
I've seen it before. RAM overclockers cheat latency scores with it. Granted there's no working GPU, LAN driver etc. but you can buy era-dependant stuff.
primarily onboard graphics, wi-fi, and sound; the roadblocks that made me settle for IoT 2021
>onboard graphics
wont work on 7 even older ryzen APUs are incompatible
>wifi
not needed plug an ethernet cable in or get a usb wifi dongle
>sound
should just werk with the built in driver otherwise get a sound card
some mobo manufacturers just dont give a shit about microsoft and continue to publish win7 drivers for new hardware so check those out
>you don't need it
>buy different hardware
Win 7 babyducks are just like Loonixtards.
Alright, but how do I make Windows 7 run on my 14900K?
use a sata drive as the install media
or install the OS on an older system and just transplant the hard drive
>windows xp has no usb3 or nvme drivers
yeah no shit we're talking about windows 7 here though
I got my copy from piratebay, disabled all the bullshit over probably a week and the only issue I've had was with an external drive that was powered down being treated as an unassigned one and proceding to move 200k files into nowhere.
It's the single largest frick up I have seen from software in 40 years but I have not seen any systemic issues.
>windows ISO

>I got my copy from piratebay

>How can I install inwdows 7 on new intel 12-13th gen and still get drivers too
I couldn't on Zen 4 processor either.
not mine but it's possible.
have seen 14th gen intel.
all you need is LAN, AUDIO and NVMe drivers.
Audio is easy, just use USB audio for zero headches. If you have 13th gen Intel or newer, unless you can track down a new modified driver, PCIe is your best bet.
I wouldn't recommend NVMe but it's possible.
Mine stuck at starting Windows screen finishing installing. Canonkong himself said he only managed to get Zen 4 processor to work only on MSI AM5 motherboard.
Not that it matters either way since Ada lovelace/RDNA 3 don't support Win7 any longer.
You didn't apply the UEFI fix.
You mean this one?
https://github.com/manatails/uefiseven
I tried, but I get BSOD instead.
your a moron if you use linux and can't be helped
>How can I install inwdows 7 on new intel 12-13th gen and still get drivers too
anon you're essentially hitting your own dick with a hammer and then asking us what you can do to make the pain stop
holy ZASED
why the frick would i use it then
Do you know how hard it is to find shit on windows 11? There is no thumbnail previews you need to use a 3rd party program to use the file explorer that actually has previews
What does that have to do with anything? You need Icaros for windows 7 also. Then mkvtoolnix to add the covers to the files because scene groups never updated standards.
Works on my machine, but installing K-Lite Codec pack might help you with your problem
>that shitty poojeet made thumbnail preview
no
You whine and b***h about not getting to see file thumbnails but once someone gives you a solution you suddenly turn back and say that you don't want it? You genuinely cannot be helped and no one should interact with you because that would be a waste of their time.
>just eat shit, stop complaining
no i have standards
You're trying to pass "subpar" as "superb" and then act shocked when people refuse your two-bit solution? what is wrong with your kind ranjeesh? why are streetshitters so against having standards? that's not a solution, that's a compromise.
This is literally a skill issue. You can set folder icons to whatever you want.
Video files you need Icaros for, which comes with the codec pack as suggested.
Works for me too, by default.
What the frick im on windows 10 and have previews. Does 11 really have nothing? How could they regress so much. Just casually browsing my hentai collection would be impossible.
Anyone else just use Windows 10 LTSC + O&O Shutup 10? Pretty sure it's the best possible option right now all things considered.
Me, and I'll keep using it until I move to Linux.
I would, but sadly I play some goyslop with IRL friends, and that slop arbitrarily refuses to run on IoT 2021 and requires more recent "feature updates"
Why are windows 7 cultists like this?
Just get windows 11 and stop listening to memes.
i hate compositing

Yep, it's gaming time.
Only game that doesn't work is Elden Ring. Dark Souls 3 requires enabling paging file though.
Elden Ring works for DVRK or whatever it's called.
Actually, I found somebody using VxKek as well.
I've seen windows 3.1, 3.11, NT3.5.1, Win 95, Win95 OSR, Win 98 Win 98 SE, WIn NT4.0 Win ME, Windows 2K Pro, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 Windows 10 why the frick this this guy hung ip on win 7 anyway? All the control panels, filesystem controls are exactly the fricking same anything you don't like can be disabled..if it was win 8 or 8.1 I'd get it but win 10 is fine. I miss dos 5 anon. It was the best dos, better than 6.22 or 4.
>layers of bloat and other bullshit
>power saving efforts that frick with performance / latency
>security updates that frick with performance / latency
>telemetry out the ass
i don't know anon.
W10 LTSC fixes all of those problems except maybe:
>power saving efforts that frick with performance / latency
I've never heard about this before. I just choose high performance power plan and I don't get input lag in my games. Wanna elaborate?
I dunno about 7 but you can turn off telemetry and other privacy-risking settings with Group Policy Editor and O&O Shutup 10 for W10
>LTSC
lol
lmao even
IoT LTSC is the only option for people who want to keep using the same hardware until 2032, but without security vulnerabilities
A lot of low end mid 10s computers can still be used
True. But imagine having updates enabled.
Again, the point of IoT LTSC is that you don't get feature updates breaking your system and get security updates until 2032 (as opposed to 2025 for normal editions)
LTSC is made for devices that depend on updates never breaking stuff, like medical devices, etc
>he has updates enabled
Again, imagine having updated enabled.
Don't make me repeat myself.
saving efforts that frick with performance / latency
I just trun it off in the power contol panel which is the same as win 7
updates that frick with performance / latency
again only if you don't change it to download on demand whicg was also true in win 7
out the ass
been there since win xp for updates and regionalisation, turn it off in a group policy same as all the previous ones since win2kpro
of bloat and other bullshit
actually far less than vista/8 etc about the same as 7 except the anti virus and anti ransomeware is actually reasonable and useful
You literally can't turn off all the telemetry in 10. Not even in ltsc. Some of it is baked into the OS itself.
With older windows versions off meant off or you just uninstall telemetry updates.
>With older windows versions off meant off
do you have the snippet of the source code that proves this?
The power plan is half the story.
These things started in Windows 8 and are present in Windows 10 no matter what you do.
I don't care that much for telemetry, I use Windows 7 for performance and latency.
Enjoy your Windows Defender lmao. Even if you rip it out there are hundreds of calls to it and will destroy performance after a week.
I've worked in IT for 25 years. If anything the win10 kernel is faster than win 7. You are just wrong. All of the control panels you use are still in 10 and its probably easier to turn of the garbage in than 7. There is no equivalent in 7 to the ransomware protection either. You're not in the kewl gang, you are just a moron.
If it's faster, why do I get higher cinebench scores, up to 18% more FPS in older games than Windows 10?
Because you are a moron who never bothered to tune up win10 like you learned to tune up win 7 and now you are facing being two generations behind and fricked. Win10 is a good windows version (so was 7) win 8 was fricking cancer, agree but you've fricked up staying on 7 and not using 10.
>who never bothered to tune up Win10
moron.
I heard this idiocy last thread. Windows defender isn't scanning running processes. It doesn't even delete files automatically if you scan and detect something. It does what it should do.
>delete defender properly in NTLite
>DPC latency drops
>system calls significantly drops
>system feels far more responsive
>games feel far more responsive
ACK
saving efforts that frick with performance / latency
updates that frick with performance / latency
Literally not an issue if you aren't terminally moronic.
>cares about latency
>uses an OS that forces compositing on windowed applications
>NOOO I WON'T INSTALL WIN 10 CAUSE MUH PRIVACY N SHIT
>why yes I will let random internet users tinker with my win 7, why wouldn't I?
The absolute state
7 was developed post-PRISM so it's worthless on the privacy front, true privacy enthusiasts use Linux
7 is for brainlets who like to pretend they're very special and different
>who like to pretend they're very special and different
funny hearing this from a troonix user
there are plenty of reasons to use Linux distros, that's why it's frequently used in the tech industry
there are precisely zero reasons to use 7 in the current year which is why no one but terminally online Gankeroids still use it today, because you can get equivalent or even better functionality by spending 5 minutes playing with settings on 10 Education/LTSC
No one cares about your evangelism, Black person.
>Verification not required.
cared enough to reply LMAO

>the pot calling the kettle a Black person

>for brainlets who like to pretend they're very special and different
Oh goy.
Only morons still use Windows 7 for "muh privacy". Everyone knows Linux is the go-to. However Linux is only one link in the long chain. Just using Linux alone won't make you private.
Real chads still use Windows 7 for performance.
>Linux is
garbage
I use Windows 7 because I'm afraid of anything new. I've played with different distros, they all work but still the familiarity and comfort is what made me stick with 7.
10, I only dualboot it if I want to play directx12 exclusive gaymes.
Bro if you're running any hardware from the past 30 years your privacy is not guaranteed.
well yeah if you use any type of connected hardware, your privacy is not guaranteed
at least I'm not using NSA-approved software and fooling myself into thinking pajeets aren't stealing my data
So you're just spouting various granulaties of cope, do you understand?
I'm not though, because I'm fully aware that complete privacy is a pipe dream
IMO there are two approaches to privacy, either you don't give a shit about it or you at least try to restrict the amount of data that big tech and ad companies steal from you
7tards belong in the former category while pretending to be part of the latter
>he thinks people use Windows 7 for "privacy" reasons
>those same morons are checking for updates every 2nd day
>telemetry and spyware were backported in 2015, to whatever spyware Win7 had in the first place
Oh please.
7tards can't stop gloating about "dodging" (lmao) the spyware on 10/11 so yeah they seem to care a lot about muh privacy
They are moronic.
The real chads continue to use Win7 for performance and latency reasons.
If performance is the reason then why not just use a Linux distro? Setting up Steam and Proton integration is quicker than installing a million programs from dubious sources to jury rig an OS that hasn't been maintained in years to work with newer software.
Linux was worse than Windows 10 from my testing. Granted I'm no expert but everyone says "Linux is good out of the box". Could be the games themselves. Could be that I'm using NVIDIA as well but AMD doesn't offer me the things I need on Windows 7.
When did you test? Proton has improved tremendously in the past few years.
>NVIDIA
I heard they have shitty Linux support but their recent driver versions didn't cause too many problems for me when I tested them.
CS:GO would stutter each time a new chunk of the map loaded in. This was in 2022 and is considered a "native" game. Was installed on an SSD + 32GB RAM, the system wasn't the issue.
Even just standing still, the fps was only 2/3rds of what even Windows 10 was.
Everything was stock, happened on both Linux Mint and Pop_OS (both recommended by people here).
Granted I have tested it since then, wasn't any better FPS wise. .
I have tested it since then
bro linux is as shit today as it was 20 years ago, never mind 2
Say that in the next 'Linux Gaming Thread' and the trannies will go down all avenues to prove you wrong, or just ignore you.
it's funny to see all these "modern linux is fine bro" when it's EXACTLY THE SAME as two god damn decades ago
Nah it's definitely better but still needs 10 years of work + needs to be more user friendly before anyone even considers switching.
the software hasn't improved, standards have just dropped
two decades ago you only needed one python runtime
Almost nobody used python 20 years ago, perl, vbscript etc but few used python. u are a liar
that python was still new then doesn't make the utter debacle of python 2/3 any less ridiculous, and nothing i said was false or even controversial which makes your accusation that i'm lying rather curious
you were not using python 20 years ago, don't lie to me, I know.
i never said i did. you seem unwell, seek help.

Thanks moron zoomers thinking github is acceptable.

static linking literally does not work with glibc
>because they're moronic
Works on Windows.
>it's EXACTLY THE SAME as two god damn decades ago
it's far more fragmented and broken now
can't argue with that
they haven't even decided on a standard user config directory
No it isn't. Getting a billion dollar company to build and transform wine has changed the game.
because if i'm constantly pulling strings, it's not performing for me at all, i'm puppeting it
i know its hard for 10babs to comprehend, but win7 lets you choose to not install that shit if you don't want it, and uninstall things you don't want later and not nag you about it constantly or override your settings to do it anyway
well here's the thing, the lan has no internet connection, there is a seperate wifi and no link between them
protip: the NSA employs a hilarious amount of foss "contributors"
information wants to be free and programmers want to get paid. who's paying?
>why yes i trust the harvard MIT israelite and poetteringware

You don't understand anon. Muh personal computing is muh privacy and muh freedom. Now take the estrogen.
>Muh personal computing is muh privacy and muh freedom
That's never been true if you are on a IP network. If you care don't be on an IP network and don;t use wireless. I know someone who has a home lan setup with an Xbox 360 with a custom UI for each room and some sort of media server and more movies and music and games on voice activation than the internets (there is a box with five rows of 3 18 terabyte drives on a optic cable but I don't know where it plugs into)

Surely you dont think I... dont OWN my games? Anon, I play on PS5 and own my games, and do work/browse on Fedora Linux.
However, I did Linux gaming and pirating exclusively for two years without problems, actual skill issue.
>can't even disable mouse acceleration
yes you can? are you looking for troubleshooting
Every time Linux is mentioned, he spams his autism about supposedly not being able to turn off mouse acceleration, even though you can do it with xinput and several distros expose the option in a mouse settings GUI. When confronted with these facts, he claims that these things don't really disable mouse acceleration, because the acceleration profile which disables acceleration is called "flat" and he thinks that sounds like something else, but it's not. He has been proven wrong multiple times so at this point I think he has given up on trying to debate it and just wants to spam.
ah finally the windows 7 users who know nothing of tech or how to fix problems on their own got handholded a method to bandaid fix shit
bravo
Cool.
I haven't run into any software issues yet since I just use the same shit as always and never update it, but this will be useful eventually.
>Windows 7
Why not XP? It's the only good windows OS ever.
you surely meant windows 2000 professional the XP ui was ugly. The answer is kernel and driver support same as always but now with virtualisation i you really can't manage a new OS just fricking bring your old one as a virtual disk and virtualise it on newer hardware.
how do you even make win 7 safe to be onine anymore?
you don't, the morons on Ganker using it represent less than 1% of windows users at this point that are technologically illiterate and afraid to change. Or they live with their mom and dad and are still using a 2009 PC.
This, there are three sets of tech illiterates on Ganker
1)The faux linux users, linux is shit if you want a unix run unix and pay for it e.g Oracle Solaris,IBM AIX,HP-UX.
2)The Win 7 tards. Yeah.
3)Tendies. Tech illiterates that have never played or used anything but their brandhomosexualry
Prove it's dangerous outside of hypothetical from nerds
Most exploits will target current systems
thats not my aim. i went to the penguin because frick 10. i like 7 and want to use it
because new found exploits to the os wont get patched by MS. is running browser sec addons the only way they can get in? i can check up on 3rd PT SW opening and using ports, but im not sure about the ones 7 keeps open
I truly dont know, thats why im asking
Hacks target the most moronic group, ie phones. Nobody gives a frick about pcs. The biggest threats are Microsoft and Google.
By installing Avast 😉
By just doing what you've always been doing?
Why exactly would it be any less safe if you have the bare minimum essentials for browsing the internet? As in, ublock+a noscript addon.
I also have umatrix too but that's just personal preference.
Don't visit shady sites, don't download .jpg.bat, and if you have to download something unknown run it through virustotal. It really is that simple.
imagine thinking that microsoft abandoning it makes it unsafe.
microsoft's updates are a sweaty, fat, sleeping rent-a-cop. technically better than nothing, but is it really?
microsoft updates are the biggest threat to your PC.
Just the other day microsoft edge was used as an attack-vector to install bing's chat client stealthily on my system. Caught it in the act tho.

You should at least upgrade to 10 and not use an outdated os anon.
Cope.
Windows 7 is ironically still getting ESU updates. It's still both updated and secure. Bad faith argument.
My nvidia driver card Driver is 600MB ._.
The main thing I love about not upgrading from windows 7 is all the hoops and frickery I have to go through just to make it barely functional.
Truly it is the greatest operating system.

Gaben see you all
I'm not saying that windows 7 is still popular but this isn't an accurate gauge for the amount of people still sticking to that OS as majority who uses 7 pirate their game. Same with Linux, it's far more popular than you think but due to our philosophy with computing we would rather pirate games for free unless it's multiplayer.

>Q: Does it work for games???
>A: At the moment, VxKex is not intended for games, so you will probably have limited success. I hope to address this shortcoming in a future release.
Win 7 users are fricking morons. Worse than linux troons
ACK
And what else did you do, obviously this wasn't just VxKex since this doesn't work for video games.
>Worse than linux troons
the only thing worse than linux troons is ninpedos and appletards
Just screencap every 7igger post and make fun of them in a couple of years
They're the new XPee gays
Literally just install Ubuntu I don't understand the issue. It's a secure OS and will run 99.99% of the games you try to play on it.
Why are you morons so hard stuck on a 15 year old operating system when modern solutions exist that solve every problem you have?
The reason they wont move to ubuntu mint or fedora which will do everything they need to and more is because all of them play the 0.1% games that are borked aka LEAGUE
League works on Ubuntu.
Yes.
You have not used modern Linux. It just werks.
>You have not used modern Linux. It just werks.
but i have, many distros, different broken installers and dependencies abandoned open source garbageware only good for very limited and static builds for crude appliances and cheap bad web sites. it will never be a well supported or good choice for a desktop or laptop
>systemd
>secure
lol
>Literally just install Ubuntu
DO NOT DO THIS it is awful as if win 8 was a command line
No one wants to use command line.
So don't. It is not a requirement.
But somehow you will. in the same thread, argue that installing dodgy chinese spyware on your 4 year end of life OS is a better option.
The absolute mental gymnastics you go through astounds me.
>So don't. It is not a requirement.
It is. You cannot avoid the command line on Linux. And I'm not even talking about shitty GUI wrappers. He will not be able to fix a problem without tty when something eventually breaks. Linux without cli is just a cope.
I absolutely can and I do. I daily drive Ubuntu on my work laptop.
You can lie all you want but the only cope is you running your outdated OS jumping through moronic hoops to keep it on life support and barely functional.
>I absolutely can and I do. I daily drive Ubuntu on my work laptop.
you are not impressing anyone, I just think you are tarded for using such a mess, let alone thinking it is something to recommend.
You can think what you like, I KNOW you are tarded for using windows 7 in current year.
And a simple modern OS will solve 100% of the problems you have with it.
But you think you're some kind of freedom fighter sticking out the last bastion of the "last great operating system" it's absolutely fricking asinine.
>, I KNOW you are tarded for using windows 7 in current year.
i don't use win 7, well I'll rephrase that I have a bunch of machines going back to NT 4.0 including some laptops that were OEM win 7 but I actually am using Win 10 with my own exploit protection net. I also use solaris and have since the 90s. Did you mean to reply to me?
>freedom fighter
Is this what moronic schizo thinks whenever someone sticks with windows7? You could at least fling the insult of "stop living in your comfort zone" or "grow up man child". I would like to change my stance on the outdated OS that the only spergs are the ones who are anti-7.
protip: it's an NSA op to make people install the latest backdoors
>I absolutely can and I do.
Doubt. If you don't know how to interact with the bash shell at the very least you won't have a good time in the near future.
>You can lie all you want
I'm living in reality with my terminal emulator.
>running your outdated OS
Cope, you're the one on using the LTS kernel.
There are as many or more ransomware attacks against linux now fren, especially servers, hear me or suffer.
Yeah, if you're a moron that hasn't enabled automatic updates and doesn't exclusively use SSH keys to login.
>There are as many or more ransomware attacks against linux now fren, especially servers, hear me or suffer.
oh look a buffer overrun that allows a hook in a linux distro, its a regression, will i tell them? no they are insufferable troon cancer who will steal the credit.
you could always write a fix and then have the pull request rejected without comment
you do know linux servers are getting raped daily all over the Internets an are the major current attack vector in the current day? too many versions too badly maintained and installed by brainlets
i think you should reread that
Oh boy! All that access to an unprivileged user namespace with nothing in it! How useful.
It is useful if it lets you insert instructions in the execution queue, yes. Obviously. And virtually all linux users have to type SU so fricking often they may as well be running as root. But enough about that technological abortion and its troon users.
*disabled
Uh, no. That's a good way to get nailed.
Wrong, updates are the largest security vulnerability.
Ah yes, definitely much safer to run an OS that stopped getting support 4 years ago.
It is absolutely a requirement. Stop lying.
For what purpose? I'm not him so I don't care if you "win" your little debate, but whenever I use the command line on Linux Mint, it's always for something I could do without it (editing text files when I could use xed, installing programs when I could use Software Manager), or for some custom automation shit that I wouldn't know how to do on Windows without writing my own Python script or something (because I never learned Powershell), or for fun.
Actually, I do use one command line thing with no GUI, for changing my mouse LEDs. I would have preferred just to buy a mouse without rainbow lights if I could find any, but someone decided a mouse with 5+ buttons must have rainbow lights.
>privacy concerns
>using WINDOWS of all things
Clown world.

Shut the frick up troony
>JuST USe LiNux
Nice troony speak
>troony
but enough about windows users
trannies prefer linux because they think it will conceal their child pornography which is all they use the internets for aside from posting about zelda
Emailing a company and crying to get your way is a literal troony tactic.
frick valve and all the other corrupt rentseekers
call me when they make the same thing but for windows xp
How do you W7gays deal with the fact your video drivers are like 5 years out of date now? Nvidia stopped supporting W7 back in 2019.
Even when it says Windows 7 is unsupported they actually still support it. Nvidia lies.
really it just means "if there's a problem we'll tell you to frick off"
but if it works it works
Really? I've got a 1080ti but I'm still using 472.12 since the later drivers I tried didn't work at all.
Why do I need to update drivers if I don't play modern games?
Also they have huge spikes in DPC latency. Fixed in 536 to a degree but still not as good as the older drivers.
Better check if another driver update is available, homosexual. https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
>Why do I need to update drivers if I don't play modern games?
most driver updates fix either performance or security bugs while the device is in support
Well something happened after 289 because CS:GO lost 12% performance and never regained it.
DPC latency is much better on older drivers than the newer ones.
driver updates almost exclusively fix bugged features only used by the latest AAA-partnered games. if you run old stuff older drivers are often more stable, not less.
Programs that work do not need updates. Why do you imagine that they would?
Hex rot
See jpgs
cant they just make window 11 usable?
>cant they just make window 11 usable?
never use a new windows until it has been out for a couple of years. i am wise. listen to me.
OK now what?
ms is pajeet central now, its ogre
stick to 10 ltsc
>just use linux
do you seriously expect me to watch a tutorial for every little basic task i do in seconds in windows? And that won't cover all of them
if you're that computer illiterate it's a small miracle you ever got here
stop shilling linix cancer, its on the same level of tech moron as fricking switch buyers
i have issues, anon
seek help
Where can I download an .iso that works with new hardware? I'm curious why there are people who still have Windows 7, I want to try it
I REFUSE TO MOVE ON I REFUSE TO CHANGE IM FOREVER STUCK IN 2015 TARGETED BY EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE I AM STILL USING WINDOWS7
>giving a shit that you're being spied on
Oh no the israelites are going to invest more cash on monster girl rape hentai games to appeal me whatever shall I do
>I won't use Linux because it requires a million programs to work!
>proceeds to do the same to keep 7 working
8.1 is better btw
What does this mean? Explain it to me, but uh, pretend like I'm moronic
VxKex is a set of API extensions for Windows 7 that allow some Windows 8, 8.1 and 10-exclusive applications to run on Windows 7.
Such as, but not limited to, Blender, HandBrake, Kodi, MKVToolNix, MPV, Python, qBittorrent, Rufus, Yuzu, and according to this thread it allows Elden Ring to work too apparently as per
To elaborate; microsoft tries to force operating system updates by just setting a flag in their program that builds other programs to make them stop working.
Because microsoft controls the colleges, all the morons for the last 20 years are completely dependent on this system. You can see the vaxxie types in the thread thinking computers get aids if they aren't regular vaccinated.
What if I quadruple boot Fedora, windows 7, 10 and 11?
>Guy got an emulator shut down instead of downloading linux
Windows user will do ANYTHING to stay on Bill Gate's plantation, even when the old shack is abandoned and in disrepair, they will insist in sleeping in it.
7 is the opposite of the Gates plantation
7 is the one thing MS truly fears in the market and why they spent millions on propaganda and FUD campaigns to get people to switch to 10. Linux has and always wll be a non-factor.
>"Massa let's me sleep in the ol' Shack number 7! I get's all the potato skins i needs!"
You're too afraid to make decisions for yourself.

I can Cancel my updates, and pick when to apply them.
I can also pick any distro i want.
You keep enjoying those windows 10/11 potatoskins. enjoy customizing your colors as your only customization. We both know you'll stay there.
>I can Cancel my updates, and pick when to apply them.
Ever heard of group policies?
>I can also pick any distro i want.
Doubt because you're probably using the boilerplate Linux OS just like everyone else.
>You keep enjoying those windows 10/11 potatoskins.
Why would i do that when I can just kill explorer? I ain't dealing with anything other than the classic theme if I'm using Windows.
>enjoy customizing your colors as your only customization.
Enjoy customizing your genitals, and I'll be on vanilla dwm.
>We both know you'll stay there.
Yeah, I'll just stay on Arch and updoot every day.
Just make a linux as usable as Windows 7 and they'll move. No one uses linux because no one wants to look up what shit they have to type into the command line every time they want to do basic shit that takes >5 clicks in windows 7 (>9 in windows 10/11).
enjoy your spyware
enjoy yours, 11gger
>just install malware bro
lmao the absolute state
Paranoid morons ITT
explain to me like i'm 10
what is it, what does it do and why is that a victory
When two computer programs interact with each other (for instance your operating system OS and a video game) you need a format for them to communicate, this is called an API. APIs are added to over time allowing them to interact in new ways. Windows 7 stopped receiving API updates so newer programs no longer work. This is an API extender for Window 7, allowing some newer programs (and games) to work on Windows 7.
When it starts working for games then I'll go back to 7 otherwise I'm sticking with 10
Does Windows 7 have Vulkan 1.3?
No?
It's getting dropped ASAP.
Look, I understand anyone not wanting to switch to 8, 10 or 11.
Microsoft has taken a piss on its users.
Then why not switch to a Linux distro? I did so in 2015 after Microsoft making clear with 10, that they had completely lost it. (I installed and used each 8 and 10 for a while at the time.)
I don't feel like complaining about my personal computing experience in the last 10 years.
I have to deal with Windows in my day-to-day job and when doing helpline for family and friends, and I don't understand how anyone could still use that shit on his own volition. It's total madness.
Neato
If you're going to use a compatibility layer, you might as well switch to linux. This is a completely nonsensical run around.
