I have never received one of these screens with this One Neat Trick:
I disabled the TPM in UEFI settings.
Beautiful.
Aww your poor wittle pc is unhealthy! It just needs some rest and some fluids.
It's cool while it works. But these options are not going to be provided forever in newer hardware. Recent example I saw is the absense of AHCI option in new laptops (you now need additional drivers just to reinstall Windows manually). We need to keep developing software solutions to software problems.
This is the fucking way
In the 90s this was hacker shit. You'd do this shit to, like, break into the pentagon or something.
Fucking cringe cyberpunk; everybody's a hacker, because theres no other way to see your fucking calendar.
Aren't you using the TPM for full disk encryption, though? Or are you entering your BitLocker Password at every boot?
I use full-disk encryption on my Debian, and I honestly don't see what's wrong with entering your passphrase on boot.
There doesn't have to be anything wrong with it, though I seem to remember that BitLocker isn't all that difficult to break if your passphrase isn't long enough. I just found it a bit weird because unlocking via TPM very much feels like the standard solution under Windows.
also windows 10 requires tpm for passkeys
Is it not disgraceful that you have to use a trick so some third party company doesn't install software you don't want on your hardware? I think that's appalling!
Aren't these screens from the article specifically for unsupported devices, like those without TPM?
Oh it looks like your PC is not supported because you turned off single option in UEFI. Go to this link and buy your new Windows 11 PC today!
Sounds like a good idea to disable a security feature to not be reminded of the EOL of the software you’re using /s
