LastOS

Though the Advanced Startmenu stuff started getting a bit messy with Windows 10 and higher. (But that feature can be disabled)

These days (in hindsight), I wish I had added some sort of progress bar (and escape mechanism) to the Fader(tainer) as some of the larger packages can get pretty time-consuming.

Oh yeah, and I would replace MD5 with BLAKE3. In comparison, MD5 is so slooooow (and broken) and BLAKE3 is incredibly fast and secure.

FYI, I've updated the ssApp for "HashCheck Shell Extension" that now supports BLAKE3 plus multithreading.

Everyone read , how much do I believe fakebook , not much but THIS does make since = https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1FG2xfv2YS/

@The Freezer - I have a right click CRC SHA flyout that does 4 different hash checks and a astrik * that does all in 1 shot , possibly part of 7zip I can not remember I have not re-installed in well over a year .

BTW, KAZZ was NOT Tilanuz, Kazz was from UK, he did the artwork for me, so if Kazz had the same ID then Til took his account when he stepped back, because Kazz disappeared and Til did not. Then Kazz came over to LastOS for a visit and that was the last time I saw him.

Til went away when Alchemist went offline when his friends gave it up. Corona also did artwork for LastOS v13 and v14, Kazz took it over and then he also did some ssWPI themes.

Ah. Thanks

The CRC SHA right-click sounds like the 7-Zip context-menu:

Here's some info about BLAKE3 -- it is perhaps less complicated than the Wikipedia entry (BLAKE3 (wiki)).

@Steve:

If I label all my files as "Epstein files" they will leave me alone.

LOL

Tilanuz actual name was Kass he was Dutch based , I spelled it wrong , no relation the the Kazz start menu , I just caught that as @Glenn pointed out .

I thought back in that time it was related and I asked Tilanuz and he said no it was after someone else in the forum , team , group .

Is anyone working on an update to date Win10 one which could be more suited towards gaming?

No because the LTSC IoT has already dropped support for certain games and will not allow them to run, the non IoT runs out next year "the final end date to October 12, 2027", So I personally wouldn't use it for a fresh install as I can't really sell a PC or Laptop that wont last a whole year, Microsoft may extend it again, but at this point I am not going to risk it. So I am only putting IoT on my PC's where Linux can not suit the end user. Even the IoT on older hardware is bogged down to taking over 40 minutes to do the smaller Win 10 IoT updates, so there is no way I'd force the even larger Windows 11 Bypassed OS on it as the updates on that are often twice as big, so a PC out of action for over an hour is NOT something I would be comfortable offering anyone.

I don't play games, I don't own a gaming PC, it's a Ryzen 7 with a RTX 3060Ti... it does have 96GB of ram and about 40TB of HDD space, it's not really for gaming. The best choice is for the end user to install the base version of the OS they need and run ssWPI or LLStore to install the tweaks, addons and apps/games from that to make the OS they need. as I don't want to pretend I can offer a better OS for every person. When my goal is a optimised OS that works very well with low specs and older hardware.

I am unable to predict how the future will go, at this stage I am hoping Microsoft collapse and Linux takes over, then the users will get their choice and freedoms back. To be forced to subscribe (paid or otherwise) and forced to accept their changes isn't something I want anymore. My OS should leave me alone to do what I want to do, not keep pushing things at me because it's profitable to them.
