Reminder that you should install Windows Embedded POS Ready 7 on your PC if you haven't already. It will give those of you who aren't comfortable with making an impromptu switch to another OS more time before SHTF. On another note, RIP XP for real for real this time, as POS 2009 dies in only a few days.
POS Ready 7 EOL October 12th 2021 vs Win 7 EOL January 14th 2020

Piece of shit ready ftw
It even has aero
Ryder Gomez
Install Gentoo
Benjamin Cooper
Isn't LTSC better?
Mason Bailey
>Using Windows 10 ever
Aiden Ross
What is the difference between Win7 and POS Win7
Jeremiah Perry
POS still receives security updates for the next few years.
Kayden Jenkins
It's basically the same shit, but intended for cash registers and stuff. It's still a fully functional desktop OS with most of the needless bloat and malicious "features" stripped out (that are easily added back if you need them.)
Henry Jones
>impromptu switch to another OS more time
How much fucking MORE time do you people need? Your ship has already sunk, stop trying to plug the leak.
Eli Allen
OP here. I've used Linux for 11 years as my primary OS. There are things in the Linux world which are getting better, but not perfect yet. The death of Windows 7 is a rude awakening for some. POS Ready 7 will allow more time for people to t think things over before completely changing their workflow. That's why I made this thread. Please don't be rude, and instead try and politely tell people why they would benefit from switching to Linux sooner rather than later.
Lincoln Turner
>fully functional
No, it doesn't have GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Josiah Sullivan
I'll keep using win7 fuck you
Kayden Foster
Your shitposting is going to put more people off form Linux than it is going to win. You know what I meant by that. It's fully functional from the perspective of someone who already uses something like Windows 7 as their daily driver.
Wyatt Murphy
Sure, you can ride car without car stereo unit, but it is not a car, as defined by POSIX
Brody Murphy
Thanks, always need a few more people for my botnet.
Liam Clark
>why they would benefit from switching to Linux sooner rather than later.
I never mentioned Linux, but whatever they switch to the biggest reason would be as you said, "switching sooner rather than later."
W7 EOL is only a rude awakening if you let it be. People are going to remain the cucks they are and switch to 7 Piece of Shit for as long as they can and never solve the actual problem. Maybe I am the wrong one, everyone should stay on 7 so I can reap their tears for years to come.
Hunter Barnes
Ok? Why do I need updates and continued development? What if I just continue using 7 anyway?
Jeremiah Walker
Yeah sure, I've seen win 2003 few months back still running with no botnet on it. Apparently it never been compromised and fully accessible to internet. It's running on core 2 duo
Kevin Johnson
but of course i installed it already, user
Angel Hall
does wes7 have this extended support too?
Jace Thompson
Based. I don't know why people often ignore the existence of POSReady, on this board too. W7 EOL is nothing to worry about, not as much as M$ wants you to know.
Liam Watson
It's one of 2 things: either people just are not aware of it or it's assumed that POSReady is completely unrelated to Windows 7, when in reality both are basically the same OS and continued updates to POSReady means more updates for Windows 7
Sebastian Wilson
If you're using 7 why install 7POS when you could just make a few registry changes? Sounds stupid, OP.
Gavin Gomez
Proof that Linux shills are ones constantly spamming these threads as part of a recruitment campaign, fucking cult subhuman trash.
Caleb Lee
How fucking pitiful that the only way Linux can get headway is by MS fucking up with 10 and Windows 7 losing support, it's not that Linux has gotten any better in regards to desktop
Sebastian Jenkins
>windows POS
That's a pleonasm, user
Parker Hill
no.

how do you know how well will they play together?
in XP's case some updates needed changes in their config files, and other ones straight up binary patches.
Joshua Mitchell
>on windows 7 atm
>will have absolutely zero problem switching to based ubuntu KDE, leaving the dead world of warcraft behind as the only game i cant play if i switch
>zero problem leaving c# behind with it's plethora of failure nuget packages
>zero problem leaving msvc behind with it's horrible IDE and zero package manager support
Based cmake/systemwide package manager here I come
Mason Ortiz
>>Having a stereo makes it a car
Imagine being this delusional
Christopher Collins
It's "GNU/Linux".
gnu.org
Benjamin Barnes
It's Go/Fuckyourself because I only responded with the wording he used.
Connor Hall
Nah, fuck you and fuck Stallman.
Jordan Stewart
Everything is a conspiracy with you faggots. Have you ever considered that many Linux users just hate Windows 10, and sympathise with 7 users who don't wanna use that shit. Using an alternative is inevitable, but there are many options out there besides just Linux such as the various BSDs.
