      Is it not disgraceful that you have to use a trick so some third party company doesn’t install software you don’t want on your hardware? I think that’s appalling!

      Aren’t these screens from the article specifically for unsupported devices, like those without TPM?

      It’s cool while it works. But these options are not going to be provided forever in newer hardware. Recent example I saw is the absense of AHCI option in new laptops (you now need additional drivers just to reinstall Windows manually). We need to keep developing software solutions to software problems.

      Sounds like a good idea to disable a security feature to not be reminded of the EOL of the software you’re using /s

      In the 90s this was hacker shit. You’d do this shit to, like, break into the pentagon or something.

      Fucking cringe cyberpunk; everybody’s a hacker, because theres no other way to see your fucking calendar.
