A few weeks passed: bank accounts not emptied, websites does not display upside-down and filled with p**n ads, drives not encrypted by ransomware, email not hacked etc. So, 8.1 is safe and well 😀! btw, Defender still getting regular updates, all that's needed. Otherwise, I'd install some other av.

8 perfect years with 8.1 on a Dell Latitude E7440 (perfect as well, refuses to die). Open Shell & removal of useless apps. Still my daily laptop for email, browsing, youtube, music stream, basic image editing etc. Original os install 02.2015 (+ updates) still running flawlessly, never seen a bluescreen or any other problem (...apart from my own doing, always fixed with Reflect images). Only bad experience came from the period when MS was hammering in their "update to 10" attacks, but that plague was not the OS's fault. What a great OS (8.1) this is (was). It's W7 MK2 imo. Will keep it on the Latitude for the time being. Edit: forgot to mention original 8, what a disgusting, ridiculous contraption (the user interface, the os behind was probably ok). From systeminfo:

IMO one comes a long way (on any phone\brand\android version\OS flavor) by just using these 2: https://adbappcontrol.com/ to uninstall\disable anything one does not want\use\like. https://netguard.me/ to control all app's data activity. Navigation\driving alternative to Google, am using https://wego.here.com If one wishes, becomes just a GPS > all needed maps downloaded to phone, data off (or netguard killing eventual connection attempts).

Just to mention those superb programs (sorry, "apps"). Been using them for years, troublefree. App disable, uninstall, save snapshots (presets) of phone's current app state (uninstalled, active, disabled), uninstalling any app has option to save it to pc for later direct reinstallation, lots more. Goobye to cumbersome command line adb. https://adbappcontrol.com/en/ Netguard, stop \ allow all \ any app (system & user) from wifi \ cellular data activity. Toggle \ set permissions according to one's exact needs > zero data behind one's back, https://netguard.me/ ps, if you like\use them, donate to the deserving developpers.

Musk's deranged conception of 'free speach' in action, probably views & beliefs he more or less adheres to personally, thus allowing back anything and everything.

Installed 10 ltsc on a 10y old HP desktop (was saved from the trash, initially w8), works great. Everything smooth, light and fast. A few, minimal tweaks + O&O shutup, ready. The perfect OS for older hardware. Edit: testing 2021 IOT, so far did not discover anything special, behaved exactly like the non-iot (activation, ram, disk, user experience, updates, speed etc). Apart from longer lifecycle & security-only updates, are there any useful gains in using IOT (that I missed) ?

😀😀 😀 "58 percent say the world’s no-longer-richest man should quit his job running Twitter" https://www.theverge.com/2022/12/18/23515764/elon-musk-head-twit-poll-tesla-doxxing-moderation

Just read this, please check if correct, but even if only 1\2 of that = ridiculous disaster: "Tesla stocks has lost nearly 47% since Elon Musk unveiled his intentions to acquire the social network" 47% or so probably right: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-lost-almost-700-billion-121558314.html

Ain't it funny when companies providing security \ privacy services etc gets hacked. "We recently detected unusual activity within a third-party cloud storage service -\- We have determined that an unauthorized party, using information obtained in the August 2022 incident, was able to gain access to certain elements of our customers' information." Seen from their customer's side, must be the LastStraw. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/lastpass-says-hackers-accessed-customer-data-in-new-breach/
