@FuturisticRobert @fuchsiii I think that's the fundamental unfixable problem of publicly traded corporations because they are legally mandated to maximize ROI for shareholders at an exponential rate they'll inevitably hit a ceiling.
Per contrast, #Valve (which is owned predominantly by #GabeN and only has marginal amounts of (non-traded!) stocks with it's employees) is also doing great without #enshittifiying #Steam.
Which makes Gaben propably the only publicly known #billionaire that isn't hated.

I wonder what's it like to have a 120 hz monitor and a tablet pen...

@mrmasterkeyboard generally, #StanLePard made some legendary tune that sounds good at any speed and tuning...

@reiddragon @afriendlykittycat or have to deal with #embedded stuff of the #Vortex86 variety...
But maybe that's me who believes in #FrugalComputing and that any box that could run #WindowsXP should still be useable for basic browsing and stuff.
But maybe that's me who thinks that shit should be accessible even if the user:
(Edited because I found a better article that doesn't use a summarised version via translation and also has more details.)
Apparently, I am not the only one who wants to return to an earlier version of Windows! These modified versions include all updates to the present day, which certainly saves a lot of time once they are installed.
Enthusiast Releases Up‑to‑Date ISOs for Windows 7 and Vista

This is the site of the man in question, since I couldn't find it on the above page.

For those who worry about security, , these two browsers are updated regularly. Both work with XP and 7. Supermium also allows you to connect to your Google account and is built off of Chrome. Serpent is updated weekly. In both cases, you must manually check on the websites for updates. Serpent is based off of Firefox, but it cannot connect to a Firefox account. It does, however, use its own servers. Both of these are also accessible with NVDA, whereas several other such browsers that work with older systems are not. You may need to search down the page for Serpent, though. Note that Icedove (like Thunderbird) is also accessible.

Here is a list of legacy programs that work with 7 and XP, though versions may differ i.e. not all may work with XP but all should work with 7. Note that some programs on the main page of this site still work on XP and 7, but since they never dropped support for those systems, there is no need for a legacy version. Among the ones I use in this category are Balabolka, Clamwin, Cook Timer, DFG and JKDefrag (only used on regular hard drives, not solid state), File Optimizer, Free Alarm Clock, HWiNFO, Jarte, KCleaner, MPCHC (Media Player Classic), MSS (Microsoft Safety Scanner), Opal (haven't tried on XP but works on 7), and Revo Uninstaller (not current/inaccessible with NVDA even on 11, must use version 1.49). Reddit for Blind (not on below site) also works on Windows 7 64-bit and Thunderbird 102 works on 7, all versions. I use it even on 11. Auto Hotkey 1 and 2 work on XP and 7.

If you use NVDA, note that, along with the latest version, those that work with XP and 7 (2017.3 and 2023.3, respectively) are available on their site. If you wish to install 7, it is important to have either talking Windows PE or a disk, usb stick (or iso if working on a virtual machine) with NVDA installed, since unlike 10 and 11, you cannot use Narrator during installation. I have never been able to install XP on my own, so unfortunately, I can't help you there.
