In the latest Windows 11 preview build, Microsoft removed the “bypassnro” command, which let users skip signing into a Microsoft Account when installing Windows.

Didn't Microsoft do the same thing with Windows 10 and EU prevented that?

every passing day i feel increasingly gratified to have switched my previously win11 laptop to linux mint. aside from the sheer principle of microsoft being ass, i also fucking despise all of windows' AI bullshit. Fuck copilot for eternity.

Yeah, it’s just ridiculous. It doesn’t have to be this way!

Yup and this change will neither apply to the EU nor Enterprise 11 Customers. Guaranteed.

Just be sure to check support before buying any newish laptop. I really like my ASUS Duo Pro 2024, but ASUS adamantly refuses to lift a finger for proper Linux support for special features. Even the audio chipset which is standard somehow doesn't work with default kernels due to something they've done. Dual screen can be made to work with some scripting-fu, but the keyboard's multimedia keys just don't work at all.
Vote with your wallets and be noisy to those brands who don't support Linux well. Let them know if lack of Linux support was why you didn't buy.

Hey all what do you suggest for a school and game dev laptop with Linux for a ~$2k budget? I've been eyeballing framework but keep hearing mixed things

I feel like this won't stop anyone who was already refusing to use a Microsoft account for windows. Anyone who was already bypassing the account requirement will still do so, it just will be more difficult. They've accomplished nothing except further pissing off some of their most competent user base.

Well, if I've got no way to bypass it (when setting up for customers), I'll create an account specifically for this purpose.
And proceed to poison the hell out of any data it sends.
Does it still let you sign in locally if you disable network interfaces in BIOS?

Don't think so. The setup itself can't complete without internet.

I've got my first son or daughter on the way, I'm thinking they might be learning Linux as their first OS

Tbf Asus has been dogshit for at least a decade at this point.

Do they still make enterprise/ltsc/iot versions for 11? Because those are usually the ones that don't treat you like a child, and I expect them to retain that
