    What was the plan? Run Windows 10 unpatched?

      That’s my plan. We’re not raw dogging the internet any more, like when the Blaster virus went around and we all had to learn what firewalls and ports were.

      These days the main attack vector is going to be the browser or social engineering. The OS isn’t going to save you from either.

      ESU runs until Oct '26. So those that can’t or don’t want to leave windows have that option.

        You can activate three years of ESU via the Mass Grave

        Or have even longer by switching to the IoT LTSC version of Windows 10

          Yeah I will. Only really keeping it around for a few niche games, my daily driver is centos

            I’m curious how you ended up on CentOS, especially for a desktop/laptop? That distro effectively died when IBM bought Red Hat, but even before that it was afaik mostly used for server deployments due to RHEL compatibility.

              You’re on the money with compatibility. At work I have equipment with accompanied proprietary software designed to run on RHEL. All hosts on my network run it, about 60% desktop and the rest blades

              A bit niche. I wanted to be comfortable with the system both as a user and as an admin so I daily drive it. Not the best user experience, but I’ve learned how to work around most issues people encounter with it and it’s helped a lot

              My preference outside of that would be really mixed. My spare time is dedicated to virtualization and containers so I’m mostly using a hypervisor like proxmox. As a desktop interface I’d probably choose something with gnome. Fedora is good, I’ve used it in the past and liked it

      that is legitimately a better option than using Windows 11

    Nothing like a single spacebar turning your OS into a subscription mood.

    That first time you use the start menu after the upgrade is an ooof. I have no idea how did that make its way to release.
