1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Cool man, you're still saying two completely different things. You either know what you're doing or you spin your wheels installing windows fresh for an ENTIRE WORK DAY. There is no both.

    Here, since you don't know how to do it efficiently, let me learn you some. I configure my installer using a 3rd party program more often than not but that doesn't make the biggest time difference to me. I use Rufus which gives you the option to preconfigure a local admin profile as well as skip the various check boxes about tracking info. You can also skip use the Rufus app to set up an installer that will work on unsupported CPUs. Easy and fast. Lastly, when you get into the OOBE, before you click anything, shift + f10 pulls up an admin CMD where you can run OOBE/BYPASSNRO to skip the network requirement.

    Windows 11 is virtually the same installation as windows 10 at that point

    By the way, you have not been in IT since before I was born. Come on down off your high horse. 25 years is long enough to be stuck in the old ways. There is still room to learn and plenty of time to choose not to be angry at strangers on the internet.
