    They don’t get updates? Or how would that help, genuinely curious for the three times a year I use windows.

      The pro versions of windows don’t get as disrupted as windows home (the version everyone complains about because they don’t know there’s a difference). And the pirate ones I’m mentioning usually are iso images that have been preemptively unshitified as to not have most of the unnecessary bullshit out of the box but still get the security updates.

      Used to be you had to pick and choose updates or get your system gimped for not being a legal copy but Microsoft kinda gave up on that when they went freemium
