You don't even have to pirate Windows. Without activation everything will work besides some customization (I think you could not change wallpaper) which you can easily bypass if you would really wish to.

I couldn't switch to dark theme before it recognised my laptop's activation key. I'm sorry to be petty, but I'm not going to sit here being flashbanged

Using a system where they won't even let you change the wallpaper is some special form of perversion.
