People do not hate jews.
What people hate is Tribalist morons.
What people hate is smug jerks who say "We are the Morally Superior Chosen People, and we shalt inherit the Earth in order to lead humanity into a new enlightened Utopia".

Race, Culture, Nation or Religion has nothing to do with what people really hate, since ANY Race, Culture, Nation or Religion can do that tribalistic shit.

It does get a little irritating that anarchistic thinking is often called "right wing radicalisim".
Get off the duplicity model of government. It's very limited thinking.

I love the fact that people voted out Trump, thinking news will "go back to normal"

And then, the've got this in return.

It's pretty good so far...

But what kind of training did he go through?

Recently, they tried to ressurect it with stream of good movies, but I never even know they came out...

Not to mention, in what order... it is a mess. And they are soooooo close to doing it right.

@TheMadPirate @sjw@neckbeard.xyz
The entire DC animated universe was a miracle. Marvel movie universe is a trash in comparassion...

Sadly, the monetazitation didn't go as well.

When it comes to meaningless modern words, empowernment is the most ridiculous one.

I still have not been able to gasp any reasonable definition to be honest.

@matrix I remember seing a kid who unironically thought rolling is a good thing to do during a fight...

Well, it wasn't a hard fight. :pepelol:

We don't need giant robots... they said
The legs would not be stable... they said
They would be huge targets with no strategic advantage...

And now we have to wait for global economy to burn instead of letting a giant robot push once...

Windows 10 Setup 

Well, that was tiresome.

Not only did I have to compromise my principles to never install Windows 10, but it also took two days out of my free time.

In the end, it made little sense to install Windows 7 alongside Manjaro as a failsafe. What if Manjaro breaks only in several years and I have to suddenly use it? Running Windows 7 becomes riskier by the day.

The ideal version of Windows 10 is Enterprise LTSC. The "LTSC" stands for Long Term Servicing Channel and as I mentioned in an earlier status, it's intended for industry devices. It comes without any bloat (no Modern UI, no Cortana, etc.) and is supported for 10 years, with the last available version being supported until September 2029.

It gets only security updates, no feature updates at all.

By all accounts and purposes: Microsoft doesn't want this version to exist. It is a continuation of the old concept of Windows as a product, unlike their new internally called WaaS line (Windows as a Service). So it was only logical that they announced that the next release of LTSC will have its support reduced to 5 years.

And I have to say, Enterprise LTSC certainly feels like something that shouldn't exist, considering how hard Microsoft pushes the consumer versions of Windows 10. The Start Menu alone makes this apparent.

It's possible to "harden" Windows 10 quite well with additional tools, mainly Blackbird, but I also used W10Privacy and O&O ShutUp10 in conjunction. While they overlap in some aspects, I feel like each offers enough unique tuning options.

Blackbird is the essential one. It might need a few tries (don't be lazy, read the readme when something comes up, it doesn't take long), but in the end, it managed to deactivate all but three things for me that were related to Windows Defender which I disabled anyways. It offers creating a backup of the settings before modifying the OS.

W10Privacy offers its own privacy-related options, but of interest are mainly the Privacy, Telemetry and Firewall sections. It offers saving the modification settings, to be able to apply them easily on another machine.

O&O ShutUp10 has similar tweaks, although seemingly less, but the explanations are better than in W10Privacy. Just as with W10Privacy, you can save the modification settings.
