Absolutely, yes, I’ve had it disabled since the first W10 feature update. It gets harder with every new release, but it is doable.

You need to manually disable these services with Regedit

-Update Orchestrator (UsoSvc)

-Windows Update Medic Service (WaaSMedicSvc)

-Windows Update (wuauserv)

-Microsoft Edge Update Service (edgeupdate + edgeupdatem)

-Microsoft Edge Elevation Service (MicrosoftEdgeElevationService)

Then you need to go into Task Scheduler and disable all the tasks under the services listed above. I’d also suggest not using Edge, as it will now aggressively repair Windows Update, even with all this stuff disabled.

Microsoft Intellimouse Optical gets my vote.

Windows 10 Enterprise IoT LTSC specifically

They need to go back to making manual updating a thing, plus separating out critical security patches, from their stupid feature fluff.

I’ve had my system broken by Windows Update way more times than I’ve ever been hacked or caught a virus/worm.

Shareholders are the customers now. People are livestock to be milked dry, worked to the bone, and chopped up and served to corporations.

I’m not surprised at all, the westerners supporting Hamas and HezzyB are dumb as fuck.

a production line for corporate slaves.

Someone should tell NYC that it is unconstitutional to infringe upon a person’s right to bear arms.

I feel like I’m the only person who never signed up for Twitter.

LaserDisc Database

Extremely useful website for collectors of dead media formats (LD, D-VHS, HD-DVD, CED, VHD, etc.) Still has an old style interface with priority given to function and utility over styling. Also has a storefront where you can buy and sell discs.

MPC-BE + MadVR + LAVFilters kicks the cone.

They need to just ban this technolgy from cars and semis entirely.

Camelizer, will give you price history for anything on amazon.

Honestly if there’s one union I’d opt-out of it’s UFCW. They’re either in bed with the corporations or so inept at what they do, that you’re better off at a non-union job.

Foobar is still the best there is, although the classic style interface might not appeal to younger people.

I’m averaging 200gb a day to frame.io and other cloud services uploading raw video files. If I was on Comcast I’d be over my limit in a week.

Losing what.cd was like having a Music Library of Alexandria burn down. Such an amazing resource for rare, out of print, obscure, and or otherwise unobtainable media.

And Communism does so much “better”:

Nothing would ever get delivered.

I’m already avoiding buying newer SSDs because the durability is dropping off a cliff.
