This might be relevant to those who wish / have to use Windows 11:

This week, Microsoft made it very clear that it wants to block the popular BYPASSNRO workaround, used to skip the internet and Microsoft Account requirement checks during the Windows 11 installation OOBE (initial setup), although thankfully, the script can still be created using Registry edits.

    I want to live in your fantasy land.

    Its not hard. Just have a production Linux desktop and a production windows laptop, and it becomes pretty clear what you can do. Basic memos and emails are no problem through the web, and thats a huge number of people.

    Why do I want even more shit in the cloud? Some stuff I want on-prem and don’t need it in the cloud.

    Why buy cloud shit and then not use cloud shit?

    Just don’t buy cloud shit and join to a local domain.

    Plus, it’s now Entra ID.

    Let me know when I need to type that at the CLI and I’ll stop calling it aad.
