Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC is launched.

Gotta digest (no time right now) and see if I can find an install image through Visual Studio.  Looks like they are supporting ARM64 as well.

[Aaron44126]

Installed the ARM64 version of Windows 11 LTSC in a VM on my Mac. No problem “upgrading” from “regular” Win11 using the method described in the OP.

@Mr. FoxThe way all Windows versions should have worked. Optional options. Microsoft force the gamer-kids and aunt mary Secure boot and whatever. But corps that need more security can do whatever they want. Disgusting?

 

 

Windows 11 LTSC 2024 arrives making TPM and Secure Boot optional — lower storage requirements, too

In other words, the only way to get an acceptable version of Windows is to find an ISO that consumers are not supposed to have access to and use that instead of the mainstream trash. This shows us how little respect they have for ordinary people. We already knew that, but it shows us again as a reminder.

  

Just now, Mr. Fox said:

  

Newer is seldom better. And, some things never change. Windows 11 LTSC will be a slightly better version of a product that is worse than the one before it.

Also for Windows 10

Yep. I didn't expect many consumers wanted pay for this idocy. 

 

“We are continuing to evaluate our strategy for consumer Copilot extensibility and are prioritizing core product experiences, while remaining committed to developer opportunities,” Microsoft said. “To this end, we are shifting our focus on GPTs to Commercial and Enterprise scenarios and are stopping GPT efforts in consumer Copilot.”

 

Microsoft’s decision, however, undercuts one of the only reasons to subscribe to Microsoft Copilot Pro, a $20/mo subscription for consumers that Microsoft announced in January. Copilot Pro offered three benefits above the basic Copilot offering: priority access to new LLMs; Copilot in Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote), and the Custom GPT Builder. Now, only the first two remain.

 

Microsoft is killing a huge AI feature in Copilot Pro You will miss it bro @Mr. Fox?😁

The Real Problem With Recall Microsoft: People Don't Trust Microsoft

 

If people trust Microsoft they are idiots. And if they trust any tech company they are equal idiots as well. @Mr. Fox Enjoy. A very good article.

 

While I’m talking about Microsoft here, the reality is that many people don’t trust tech companies in general. That's spot on. And not a understatement. You can't have trust in greed and stupidity.

Very true. Also very accurate that it is a problem that reflects the industry as a whole. Not just the Redmond Mafia.

💯 you can't and shouldn't trust any tech company to do the right thing(s) for the people that purchase and/or use their products. The only thing you can trust about them is that they will do what is best for them, even when it makes their products and services less desirable, and even when it is harmful to the users of those products. They are self-absorbed scum that feel a sense of entitlement and prey on the stupidity of consumers.

A lot have been better if the younger gen computer users have stopped use much of the trash out there. Buy less trash.... Use less trash. Tech companies can't throw out trash if no one buy or use it.

Unfortunately, I think they lack the ability to discern the difference between good and bad. Those sad creatures have only known rubbish and most have been brainwashed to the point of becoming perma-stupid. It affects all areas of life. Tech is just the tip of their feces iceberg.

And this month's ltsc update report:
nothing to write about. Just a perfect OS.

[Papusan]

For those that don't run any of the Win 10 LTSC versions. Great that we still have some options bro @Mr. Fox

 

Windows 10 will get five years of additional support thanks to 0patch neowin.com

 

 

And I'm 100% sure they thinking the same for all your data they grabbed from "your PC" and "your M$ cloud account". Microsoft are pure thieves.

Microsoft AI Chief Says It’s OK To Scrape And Steal Content On The Web

Public opinion is turning against AI on certain topics. Some people have been dubious about the practical benefits of all the power and money spent on developing and operating AI for some time, but recently, leadership at multiple companies has gone completely "mask off" with regard to how they feel about the impact...

Latetst ltsc kb install report: .....am always 'hoping' for something to write about, this or that breaking, good things removed, stupid things added, but, as always, ...nothing.

[Papusan]

Windows 11 is a must nowadays. Can't be better than this. 

 

Windows 11 strikes again with annoying pop-up that can't be disabled

It's enough that we have to deal with Microsoft's pop-ups. But when they can't be turned off? That's just unacceptable.
