another key I can map to something useful in linux!
Finally an extra key to toggle between screenshot and screen capture, Ctrl is already the toggle for saving vs copying, alt for only choosing the current window and shift for making a selection.
I just set up an HP Laptop for someone and Windows setup is horrendous. Fuck you Microsoft.
There’s no way around using a Microsoft account, but when you enter an invalid login, you can proceed setting up a local account anyway. Then all the shit is set up to my disliking. And of course, Microsoft installs its own services adware and additional third-party adware you can’t uninstall, and then, HP does the same, installing more scamware. Disgusting.
Use no@thankyou.com as the email anything as the password and it’ll let you setup a local account.
aworked - apparently doesn’t even need to be a valid/web email addressBefore using any potentially valid domain name I try to use example.com, which is guaranteed to not be in use or claimable.
Dunno if this still works: when setup your local account, while NOT CONNECTED to the internet login and edit the Start Menu tiles. Delete any blank or empty ones. Those are for the ads!
This laptop has no way to disable wifi. I at least did not find anything - no such function key. And the Windows setup required you to connect to a wiki, with no way to proceed otherwise. Like, wtf?
Just what no one was asking for: a Clippy key. So by the looks of that keyboard, I can just Fn-lock that useless key back to the context menu, right?
And maybe put a dickbutt sticker or something on it.
Who would have thought, a key cap like that already exists.
That looks like cake
Maybe add a Solopilot key too so I can use a local Windows account, and not have to uninstall adware or disable online-search when I search my PC.
