well yeah, it surely is. win10 iot ltsc itself is defo getting support till 2032, but massgrave's hwid/tsforge may get blocked at some point, though most people highly doubt that since m$ doesn't really care at this point. (heck, the massgrave repos are hosted on m$ owned github) in addition to that, massgrave's hwid mode generates an hwid on microsoft's servers just like genuine windows licenses, so i'm pretty sure it'll remain working, even if the method to generate hwid gets blocked somehow..

i do believe switching to a gnu/linux distro is a much better choice, but this is also an option if your relatives really prefer using windows or need to.

i would do vnc through tailscale or reverse ssh

massgrave.dev

Gulim (default font for korean windows before vista, so similar to Tahoma) with font smoothing disabled :)

i'd rather spend time actually learning and doing things instead of being an LLM slopper lol

as a student, this is much more interesting than studying

not sure if it's very related but apparently spotify is killing their api. hopefully annas releases proper dumps that can replace it..

devuan is a solid distro that just works, not sure what's your problem with that

if you have the storage, just dump the whole drive. you can then boot that windows installation again, or even use it on a vm under linux.

it's generally a good idea to not have your home folder accessible to windows programs running under wine. other than that, i don't see the need for an antivirus. keep your system updated, and use virustotal for the occasional suspicious file

last commit 3yrs ago.. seems unmaintained

seems like they had a decent name 'revolt' but got some cease and desist and didn't resist and decided to switch.
