How to Actually Clean Install Windows 11
  • You can have a preference without being passionate or evangelical about the thing you prefer.

    I feel an operating system is a really weird thing to be passionate about anyway. And judging others for their personal preference in OS says more about the person doing the judging if you ask me...

    I find merit in each of the major operating systems I use: Windows 11, Mac OS 13, Ubuntu, Debian, Manjaro, Raspbian/Raspberry Pi OS, and Alpine Linux - and those are just the ones I run currently. In the past I used OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris, HPUX, Slackware, SUSE, Fedora, Redhat, Windows 3.11/95/98Se/2000/XP/7/10, and Mac OS 9 through 12 (with the exception of Cheetah and Mavericks).

    But to act like you're better than someone else, and make it clear you think less of them, because of your choice in operating system is telling. As mentioned else where ITT it's like the console vs PC master race crap you get in gaming communities - it says more about the insecurity of the person trying to elevate themselves than anything else.

  • I think it is still called PowerShell, but to differentiate the installation source, Microsoft seem to be referring to the cross-platform version you can download from GitHub or via WinGet as PowerShell Core and the version that ships with Windows as Windows PowerShell

  • It has been ages since I installed Windows 11. Does it require (as in, you can't continue without) an internet connection be enabled at an earlier stage in the installation process?

    If not, then MS can patch all they want, if you have the installer on a USB drive already, they can't force you to update it and the installer won't fetch a patched OOBE installer with the internet disabled.

  • If you really need to use Windows

    What if I want to use Windows for many reasons? I mean in cases where Linux could work, but it is a personal preference?

    I get you're trying to help with your suggestion, but the way you started that comment isn't needed at all - it stinks of elitism.

    You could have just said:

    Another way to get Windows without all the bloat is to install it using a Windows long-term service channel release.

    FOSS Android Keyboard that supports password manager auto-fill like Gboard does?
  • I am using OpenBoard with bitwarden, and while it doesn't offer the autofill in the autocomplete section it does work as a dropdown in the input field

    Source: Google Pixel 8 will get more Android OS updates - 9to5google
  • You get that analogies exist right?

    The original commenter used the term "DLC" to paint a pretty precise mental picture. And you got hung up on the semantics.

  • You realise DLC was originally referred to an expansion that was released a while after a game's initial release. But now game developers are pulling half the features from a game, with those features being put in a DLC instead.

    So the original comment labeling the practice of a feature being pulled from the original product and put into a separate product is apt and valid.

    Any love for Kubernetes here?
  • The one exception to this is if you're using your homelab to learn kubernetes.

    That was the only time I used K8s and k3s on my homelab.

    And for anything that I do want to set up in a HA/cattle kind of way, I use Docker Swarm, as it feels like a more comfortable extension of docker compose.
