#bloatware

Discussione continua

Talking with the folks in the local #vintage / #retrocomputing community, they clued me in that the #ThinkPad #RAID is a steaming pile of 💩 and not worth the trouble.

🤷 Oh well. Thanks for cluing me in

So I swapped out the two testing #NVMe drives I was using and reinstalled the original sticks - to have #windoz10 demanding for the #bitlocker recovery key. 🤦‍♂️

Well, time to wipe & install #windoz11 then.

Install went fine, only 4 rando #drivers to find for all #devices to be recognized and working.

Using my #CTT scripts to install the majority of applications, then to remove the #spyware #bloatware and other garbage #micro$oft added to #windows11

Then migrate my #data from my other ThinkPad. Welcome to my #sunday #funday

@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill @tomiahonen @fuchsiii obviously, that would've been a good standard for everyone, given that almost all non-#Gaming #Apps these days are #WebApps and at that point we'd not have 100+ MB #bloatware that essentially just loads a #Website and can't even cache shit!

Personally I believe the @europarl_en & @EUCommission could do that and establish as well as enforce an #EC #norm, just as they did with #USBc, #CCS2 and #GDPR!

#Android needs to be better as in being more than just the "lesser evil" compared to iOS!

My #Hisense TV has updated and now I don't have the browser app on the list nor can I add it, unless I create a shortcut for an specific URL, which cannot be 'about:blank'

I hate the way companies use technology.
I'm fed up with stupid #smartTVs thinking they know better.

Bitch, I grew up in the times BEFORE Winamp, believe me when I say you DO NOT know better.

PillowfortSnugglyBun: SnugglyBun's blog and ramblings againHi, I hope you're all okay.So I just wanna ramble about random shit again, like for example how I love customization in tech and all that. For example I made my Windows 10 LTSC install look and somewhat behave like Windows 7 without Windowblinds :3. There's a transformation pack made by ImSwordQueen that's really amazing and quite impressive, and that among many other things (disabling the spyware and telemetry, removing a lot of the bloatware, etc) has made using Windows a lot more bearableA screenshot of my Windows 10 LTSC desktop, made to look like Windows 7.I unfortunately can't daily drive Linux yet because of relying on music software that doesn't work well with WINE, among other things. So this is the next best option for now.Below are more screenshots of the funny Windows install :3Another screenshot of said install, showing the File Explorer and winver programScreenshot showing the Control Panel, the Videos folder and the Windows 7 calculator.BTW, i really love how more flexible the formatting is in Pillowfort, considering it's more of a Tumblr-inspired blogging platform than a microblogging one.I found the microblogging aspect in many places like Fediverse and Bluesky really limiting, even if the earlier has the ability to have way longer character limits and markup depending on the software implementation.
