    @darkwind only if you don't configure the damn updater.

    @iiii people keep saying that but it's not true. Even though it's a bs use case you can just not update any Linux installation for two years (though major version update skipping is valid). Windows you can postpone the feature upgrades but at a certain point it will just install it. Only the LTSC version doesn't do this.

    @hjk101 not true. Feature updates can be blocked entirely with group policies even with non long term service version.

    @hjk101 nope. If you have an wsus you can postpone them indefinitly

    @iiii You can't configure the damn updater except in the enterprise version, and you can't buy the enterprise version yourself.

    @Fast-Nop I think pro and enterprise allow such configurations. But yeah, home (beggar) editions don't allow that. But why a developer would work with that version at all? It's for dumb fucks who know nothing about computers.

    @Fast-Nop also, "education" edition is equal to enterprise. It just has a different name.

    @iiii Pro doesn't (only postpone - unless Windows "forgets" the setting), and you can't buy the edu version either unless you're a student.

    @molaram lol, the reality of software storage space

    You can put an entire 3D shooter with proc gen in 28KB or an entire OS in 20MB, but you need some basic extra functionality aaaaaand there goes my microSD
