And survived another one :O) along with a mysterious 'TPM 2.0 firmware update'. Both labeled CRITICAL Mixing such updates with Bitlocker = suspense until sucessful boot. Got 100% trust in bitlocker itself, but way less in new firmwares' possible implications (and in own deads ...or misdeads lol). Of course got backups of contents and keys ready if anything should ever go overboard.

12\23 kb invited in. Nothing added or removed, nothing broke, nothing changed. As expected from the best OS on the planet :O) btw, anyone looking for ltsc (and nearly everything else), check out godeal, 'legal greymarket', has been offering keys (comes with working iso download link after purchase) for many, many years. Example https://eu.godeal24.com/windows-10-enterprise-ltsc-2021-1-pc.html?g24=g31205 (Please edit post if contrary to any forum rules. Thanks)

Am (very?) critical of many of Musk's whims (example twitter) and pseudopolitical-social derailments. ...but what he managed to create, like tesla & spacex ?? Profound and unending admiration. Especially the spacex tech, remember seeing the first successfull rocket return landing. What an achievement. Now, he surely did not design the inside and engines of the spaceships, but got that immense skill in gathering and inspiring the best brains available, and keep everyone working towards a goal. But for twitter seemed he did the opposite, best brains (and now best advertisers) left \ fired, ftm his behavior looks like he's aiming for, and would welcome, trouble and crashes instead of sucessful landing and prosperity.

"Elon Musk said the account of right-wing extremist Alex Jones would be reinstated on X -\- The move from the billionaire Musk, who has promoted conspiracy theories himself and elevated a number of extremist voices since taking over the platform, is likely to impact X even further as companies distance themselves from the troubled platform, which has seen hate speech and conspiracy theories surge in the wake of his decisions." Yeah, free speach!! Like in another time, Musk sure would have reinstated Heinrich Himmler. https://edition.cnn.com/2023/12/09/business/alex-jones-restored-x-elon-musk-poll/index.html

^^^ interesting viewpoints. Still satisfied with FF here. esr & normal, noscript + ublock origin (+ some firewall preventing FF's own background chat). But... was expecting to see changes in YT behavior, nothing so far. Seems ublock (+ noscript?) still does it's job. Anyone attacked by ads lately, remedy implemented ?

The guy reminds me of John McAfee, seems to share some similar psychological (psychiatric?) 'features and assets' 😃 McAfee did try a US presidential run, but still remained sane enough to not try to transfer humanity to mars (or whatever Musk is secretly dreaming of) 😃

It's winter here... so what's better than Insomnium - Winter's Gate (As always, sorry for the 'vocals', the rest (power, arrangements, production, musicians) is great. Am wishing more bands in this style would do instrumental versions of their albums :O)

"Don’t advertise. Go f*** yourself” The mad genius, seems madness steadily takes the upperhand. What next, run for president? 😆 Could be an interesting show (would be 2 ego-nutcases in the race, tearing each other apart). https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/11/elon-musk-on-x-antisemitism-controversy-dont-advertise-go-f-yourself/

Apart from potential hacking, this is the weakness of relying on having one's stuff out there somewhere. Whatever did happen, maybe not impacting many this time and may be fixed, still makes one think the days of personal backups on large HD's are not over (...should not be over).

Even after dozens and dozens of successful flashes on all kinds of machines, the fear of imminent catastrophy & destruction always surfaces from somewhere, maybe over the years ones genes \ DNA got mutated to include digital fear & anxiety as a most basic survival tool :O) And yes, all well this time too !

^^^ LTSC, I'd like to help but can be out of the normal scope of this forum + my recommendations may not be right for anyone else. Google for a while, be awake and realistic, everything can be found. iso, dig around here and see if anything fits the bill. Saw a 2021 iot. https://opendirectory.luzea.de/ edit: that immense repository (iso's from pre-xp up to 11, all languages) offline, perhaps moved to new address.

^^^ Hello, basics, with any old machinery it's pure chance if some recent OS works or not. Even if LTSC is lighter than regular windows, there will be no miracle with a weak processor, too little ram, lack of drivers, a hd. If for some reason determined to use ltsc, try the earlier 2019, or LTSB 2016, "could maybe perhaps" make a difference. Or get some regular win 10, if your driver \ program problems goes away then that's the os you should use, if still problems get a newer laptop :O) And yes, some apps \ programs may not like LTSC, that's the way it is. After one got os \ pc completely up and going, it'll be a matter of testing one's programs. Most will work, a few may not. My quite recent Dell Precision copes very well, ltsc 2019 for 2,5 years. For fun and experiments I put ltsc 2019 on an old HP desktop and a Lenovo T61. HP (I5 'real' processor, 8 GB ram, SSD) works very well. T61 (by some luck got wifi \ bluetooth \ graphics \ everything needed working) sloooow even with a ssd, extreme heat under load. Close to useless in every aspect, just fun to see it's still working at all :O)

New Fairphone: repairability, software support & more
6730b replied to 6730b's topic in Mobile Devices & Gadgets
Am higly appreciating the good intentions and was looking forward to reviews. But... "Other handsets in the same class offer superior performance, longer battery life, nicer displays, faster charging and far superior camera performance. After all, those are a smartphone's key selling points, and the Fairphone 5 seems to miss them all." https://www.gsmarena.com/fairphone_5-review-2614.php -
