Yet his Swasticars strip every ounce of data from it owners…
Political relevance be damned, anyway…
You can press SHIFT+F10 keys to open Command Prompt.
Execute OOBE\BYPASSNRO command then.
After this, setup will reboot the computer and after reboot, you’ll get a new option I don’t have Internet or Continue with limited setup to skip the Internet requirement.
This helps me remember:
OOBE - Out-Of-Box Experience
NRO - Network Restriction OfflineYou don’t even have to do all that. Just do the install offline.
I did this when installing Windows 11 for a friend, was also my first experience installing Windows 11 as well. Having to open a command line during the installation process really nullifies the “Windows easy” and “linux hard” stereotype.
Yes you do have to live in capitalist hellscape too, asshat. Maybe you should have thought about that a little sooner. >:(
One of the biggest capitalist complaining about capitalism
Remember when it was possible to browse Twitter unrestricted without having to sign up with an account? Those were good times.
I am pretty sure he uses Linux because he said something once that seemed linuxy. I forget what. Does he seriously use Windows or is this more “edgy humor”?
With Linux so easy to use, it’s hard to understand why someone would use Windows unless they had a really low intelligence and struggled to learn anything new (like they had a brain disease, developmental issues, etc.) or if they were using it it in an enterprise or virtual setting.
It must be a joke.
If only someone would reply to him with the screen Twitter displays when you try to read a post while not signed in…
the world’s richest man, de facto president, head of the tech oligarchy, is complaining about corporations irritating him.
This supposed genius still uses Windows?
linux isnt popular enough for him to claim to be an expert on it
Also the Linux people would’ve destroyed him
And then he would have cried like a little bitch and go to GNU and tell them he is going to buy Linux for a jillion dollars and then get Pikachu face when he finds out that he can’t control the kernel.
Is this real? I’m having a hard time believing he posted this.
Turn on airplane mode
WHO THE FUCK SAYS “PC LAPTOP”??
Did he type that from his laptop phone? Maybe speech-to-text from his cell phone smartwatch?
People who know about Mac laptops.
In that case it would be a Windows laptop. PC stands for Personal Computer. It has nothing to do with the OS.
The Mac vs PC ads back in the day influenced language a bit
If you want to eat up Apple’s marketing then yeah.
A good chunk of the population did.
Even if that were true, does that mean that we should all accept it and drink the Apple Kool-Aid? A PC was, is and will always be a Personal Computer.
Kinda? Whether you like it not that’s just how society functions. You either acknowledge what society decides or you end up becoming the guy who argues that drawing swastikas doesn’t make you a nazi because it’s a symbol of luck.
And if you want to go down the rabbit hole of “PC is personal computer” good luck defining what a computer is without defaulting to what society thinks a computer is, because technically your phone is a computer that is for your personal use. Your phone is a PC. In a sense so is your TV and your gaming console and the steam deck and possibly even your fridge. Maybe even your car.
Save yourself the headache and use PC as you understand it while accepting that others have a different meaning for PC.
Okay, this was a year ago. Still, why is anyone at that level setting up there own computer? I would pay someone to do it.
For anyone reading this that has to install Windows, when you get to the point where it asks you to log into a Microsoft account, hit shift+F10, type oobe\bypassnro into the command prompt and after it reboots select “I don’t have an account”…
I would still maintain that Linux is a better option though.
Wasn’t that method patched out of the installer?
Nope, it still there
No. Still needed in smaller business environments if you’re onboarding a new machine.
So the “tech genius” doesn’t know how to install windows without a Microsoft account and doesn’t know how to Google it?
May I introduce the man who wants you to think he is a genius!
Thanks Elon for being so transparently incompetent.
Yes it’s just you. There is still a local account option in windows 11.
There are enough other things to hate Microsoft for but this is not one of them.
