i see a lot of complaining about the login part of Win11, and i dont like it either, but i have not seen anyone mention that you can build an autounattend.xml file (generator here: https://schneegans.de/windows/unattend-generator/) that allows you to bypass all this. I have a USB Key with the file and the latest copy of the 11 Pro download, and when setting up a new machine, i run a fresh install. Then once booted, i run the developer config (https://github.com/microsoft/WindowsDeveloperConfig/) and it gets everything i need installed. No Microsoft Login, no Candy Crush, WSL installed and all the tools i need.

Interesting. Only thing that worries me is the unlimited for free... How? Looking at this for a business case... Is it still free for that? What about server limits? How many requests can I send to your server? 50/s requests is what I would be seeing on one of our apps... Suppose using caching would reduce the calls but still....

Hmmm.... Wondering if this could be eventually used to emulate a PCIe card using another device, like a RaspberryPi or something more powerful... Thinking the idea of a card you could stick in a machine, anything from a 1x to 16x slot, that emulates a network card (you could run VPN or other stuff on the card and offload it from the host) or storage (running something with enough power to run ZFS and a few disks, and show to the host as a single disk, allowing ZFS on devices that would not support it). but this is probably not something easy...

Any more details on how it works?
i think the main reason is that 99% of users, even most businesses, dont require more than 1Gb... Yea, if you are moving massive amounts of data around, 10Gb is handy, but 99 times out of 10, 1Gb will do. And its a chicken/egg situation. Since most people don't necessarily need it, manufactures wont make them in bulk... With the advent of larger games and faster consoles, maybe going to 10Gb will happen soon...
Re:MinIO is now in maintenance-mode

Is this not the best thing that could happen? Like now its in maintenance, it can be forked without any potential license change in the future, or any new features that are in that license change... This allows anyone to continue working on this, right? Or did i miss something?
