@WindowsCentral The requirements aren't enforced. You can still run Ubuntu 26.04 comfortably on 3gb ram. I think they did this to lessen the complaining about underperforming systems and say oh well you don't have the minimum system and call it a day.

👀Windows 11 beats Ubuntu 26.04 LTS in system requirements? Windows 11 now requires less RAM and CPU than Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, and we're still processing that. For years, the narrative has been “Linux is lighter,” but the latest Ubuntu minimum specs flip that script completely. A 6GB RAM / 2GHz dual‑core requirement for Ubuntu vs. 4GB / 1GHz for Windows 11 is not the comparison we expected in 2026. Whether it’s a sign of Linux getting heavier or Windows getting leaner, it raises a bigger question: what does “lightweight OS” even mean anymore? (1/2)

@brave YouTube ad locking is bored in brave currently. Keep getting the experiencing interruption thing until I refresh the video a couple of times. This completely breaks Playlist.

Blocking ads in Brave is still $0 btw

@Itsfoss Currently running beta on a 4gb machine just fine

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS will require more RAM to run. itsfoss.com/news/ubuntu-26…

@shercsx @adxtyahq Looks like he uses fedora actually

never buy a 16GB RAM laptop in 2026. you’ll regret it within a week

@WindowsLatest Microsoft's knee jerk reaction to the macbook neo

BREAKING: Microsoft confirms a major Windows 11 release that focuses on performance, reliability, bug fixes, and bids goodbye to forced Windows Updates + unwanted Copilot integration! Microsoft is seriously and sincerely improving Windows 11 by listening to top feedbacks: - Movable taskbar confirmed. - You can now pause Windows Updates for as long as you want. No forced shutdown/reboot when updates paused. - Windows Update is moving PCs to a single monthly reboot. - Faster File Explorer, reduced memory footprint, faster Windows Search, better OS performance, and other bug fixes - Scaling back Copilot in Windows 11, start with apps like Notepad - Moving Windows core experience to WinUI (native framework), dropping WebView/React in features like the Start menu - Fewer notifications (disruptions), improved drivers, and more. How do you want Microsoft to improve Windows 11? 👇

@86BoxEmulator Can you please add Playstation 5 to 86box so we can play GTA6 on PC before GTA6 on PC?😆

will season 6 start before GTA 6

@PeteMitche26768 @DreamcoreGame There's more stuff added to each level than what was in the demo. I was a tad underwhelmed with the additions to eternal suburbia. The last new parts took me only an additional 20 minutes to complete. Still a good game though.

@DreamcoreGame But... the "release" is just the two demo levels. If there are THREE more levels to be released throughout this year, why release it at all? Why isn't the game tagged as Early Access, if what we're getting is by definition early access to an unfinished game?

DREAMCORE IS OUT NOW!!!! youtu.be/4R8axydXzX8?fe…

@mjdtweets You should see if you can put a desktop environment on that and use it like a pc.

New video! In 2005, Nokia released a tablet. Well... it's not really something you would call a tablet today. But it let you browse the web, check email, play media, and even install 3rd-party software. Also it ran Linux... so you know it must've been good. (link in replies)

@PunishedFredda This is absolutely hilarious to see since statistics will tell you that people living in red states, on average are less educated than those in blue states. More projection form the far right.🤣🤣

checking in on the guy who made the song about the diamond sword from minecraft in 2012

@wowstartsnow Fun fact: if you apply hot dog stand in windows NT 3.51 and upgrade to 2000 it sort of sticks.

Hotdog Stand was a colour scheme included in Windows 3.1 (1992). Its primary colours are red (symbolising ketchup) & yellow (mustard). Along with all 3.1 schemes, it was removed in Windows 95 (1995). It does, however, have a cult following. Because…who doesn’t love hotdogs? 🌭

@TlonIndustries @DreamcoreGame Do you have any footage of the game from this event?

We will be showcasing Dreamcore: Eternal Suburbia at #EVA2024 (Videogames Exhibition Argentina)!!! So if you're in Buenos Aires, swing by to the EVA Play sector on the 25th and 26th of this month to enjoy a taste of our new game!

@gigathnkchad480 @wowstartsnow Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2024

@wowstartsnow Sure would be nice if modern Windows had a light & trim version.

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs (2006) was a version of Windows XP designed & optimised for PCs with older hardware. Offered to business users as part of Microsoft’s Software Assurance program, it allowed older PCs to upgrade to Windows XP without necessitating new hardware.

@TheBobPony This build plus windows 8 release preview's scrapped Aero UI would be perfect.

To anyone that tried out the first Windows 10 Technical Preview release back in 2014, were you so excited to see the start menu brought back? 😄 Personally, still wished Microsoft froze this build and released it as "Windows 8.2", it was so perfect... 😔

@hakluke youtube gonna give us up gonna let us down and upset us.

After 1.5 BILLION views, YouTube took the rick roll song offline and now I'm not sure what to do with my life. youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9…

@wowstartsnow This should have become the default Vista basic theme. It looks so much better than what we got in the release

Windows Vista build 5231.2, a.k.a. the October 2005 Community Technology Preview, is a build of lasts: it was the last build of Windows to display the "Start" text on the Start button by default, the last with a Windows XP-style Start menu & the last to use Beta 1’s wallpaper. ⌛️

@MultimediaJay But not in his lifetime and that's all he cares about

Hey Dumbass. Mar-A-Lago and "The Free State Of Florida" will end up underwater if the ice caps completely melt. 😂

@TheBobPony I think winaero tweaker can accomplish this with a toggle called "aero lite"

Here's something cursed, Windows 8.1 theme in Windows 10 (RTM) by copying its files over. The theming almost exactly from Windows 8.1, such as the centered title bar text, except the window buttons. Also, the DWM animations such as opening a window and start menu is very buggy.

@JeffTutorials Pro tip: put in custom tip and add a negative number. This way they tip you

Why is a self order kiosk asking me to tip?

@wowstartsnow More like plug and "oh fck where did I put windows 95 setup disk 7"

Plug & Play, introduced in Windows 95 (1995), was a standard that allowed the automatic detection & installation of drivers for the system’s hardware on boot, or for peripherals when connected by the user. This negated the need for users to do so manually, saving time & know-how.

@elonmusk When it prompts you to sign in type "no@thankyou.com" and then just some random crap for the password. It will say something went wrong then you can sign in with a local account.

Just bought a new PC laptop and it won’t let me use it unless I create a Microsoft account, which also means giving their AI access to my computer! This is messed up. There used to be an option to skip signing into or creating a Microsoft account. Are you seeing this too?
