  1. I posted on Reboot.pro about it, but since Xper doesn't post anywhere, there isn't really a place to get reliable info relating to the server. There just are places we can congregate temporarily if need be.
  2. BTW it seems that page is now deleted entirely.
  3. I went to Texas one time, spent a month in Chase which is outside of Houston. Looking at that town on a map is one thing but in person it is completely different. It had the same amount of stuff as other towns as you'd expect but everything is just spread out. Not having a car meant I had to walk everywhere. Not a great experience really.
  4. That is not a shell in the way that Explorer is and is not an Explorer replacement. See the instructions on that site about how to use it: (3) Hide your Explorer desktop icons (i.e. right click on the Explorer desktop -> View -> Deselect "Show desktop icons"). (4) If you so wish, hide your Explorer taskbar (nb. you can always quickly bring it up from hidden when needed by hitting the Win key), and maybe also disable "Show taskbar on all displays" (on multi-monitor systems). (5) Doubleclick on Blackbox.exe in the previously selected folder to start xoblite. It is using Explorer to run this program.
  5. Does this mean that nLite is an OS too?
  6. That last migration I worked on (2 years ago) at a medical device manufacturer, there were still a handful of XP systems there. They were used to operate some laser systems. The older models used software that worked with XP and the newer models had software that worked with Windows 7, and the even newer models supported Windows 10. These laser systems cost more than a house, so I am sure there is some financial reason why they had to use different versions. Maybe the manufacturer is at fault there, who knows.
  7. Atlas isn't an OS and currently doesn't appear to have any warez in it. The way the site talks about ISOs and what-not, it makes it seem like perhaps it used to host or link to an OS ISO before. While these projects are nice, I am surprised that there still isn't any group of people making Shells for OSes. After all, Explorer is 99% of the problem with Windows 10 (or 8 or 11) and running a custom shell solves all of those issues.
  8. Change it back to AHCI, then boot with F8 and choose the option to disable automatic restart on system failure. Now if it is getting a Bugcheck, you can see what it is.
  9. It was dead for 9 years until you bumped it.
  10. Title edited from "PC" If this is not the question, edit the title to something else.
  11. No, this is not acceptable. Don't bring it up again.
  12. Win7 will never be abandonware as long as Microsoft exists. Abandonware is to be products that have an abandoned license or copyright, and has nothing to do with whether a product is actively being sold or supported. I personally don't care about the Thorium website, or the developer, or the browser, or warez, or whatever else. The forum has rules about what can be posted about and what is directly linked to, and this is only because in the past we have received complains and nasty letters from lawyers about things. So we don't allow those types of posts as a measure to protect the forum from disappearing entirely. And sure, you don't need to point out the gray area that exists with the rules, with regards to extended kernels or updates (updates are the big thing really) so let's hope MS continues to not care about those things so we can still talk about them here.
  13. Do not post a link to that website and do not mention the types of things that are on that website. Even mentioning the names will cause those terms to be indexed by search engines and leading to here. So don't do it, use a generic term. I edited some posts to remove the specific terms and replace them with warez.
  14. It won't work forever. It will only work until Steam changes something on their backend that uses a web tech that isn't supported in whatever their internal browser uses.
  15. At the time I had posted before, I was beyond "build from last week" as my Steam had updated on Wednesday night. It updated again on Friday and then the red message appeared.
  16. I haven't seen this message yet.
  17. Windows 10 is EoL (End of License) and there has been no guidance to indicate that Windows 11 will cease from using the Feature Update method.
  18. Interesting how late Opera shows up in that animation. I knew of people using it in the 90s.
  19. This is a last warning to anyone who wants to take up this trend of using MSFN as some sort of news aggregate. You cannot continue to copy/paste large portions of articles from other sites into posts. Either paste no text and leave the link, or if you want to paste text you need to use the Quote function. And that is the quote button on the reply textbox and not just the quotation marks on the keyboard.
  20. The current offerings are severely lacking in comparison to XP/7/8.1 Standard due to the lack of full componentized builds using ICE and IBW. The reason why those tools seem to be good is likely due to Microsoft deciding to make additional SKUs for those types of builds rather than just letting the EPs build it for themselves. Then again, there are no clients that seem to have any real requirement for smaller footprints considering the state of the storage market, where outside of NVME, you can't readily buy a disk with less than 1 TB space. DOMs still exist but I haven't seen anyone use them for their primary OS installation.
  21. Removed the other OSes from title and first post.
  22. I can't believe I just realised why there is an X in SpaceX.
  23. Windows 11 21H2 does not have the TPM requirement.
