"We should clarify that this won’t force a Windows 11 upgrade on a
Windows 10 PC which isn’t compatible with the stricter requirements
for the newest OS – but it’ll likely continue to nag you about
upgrading (for your own good, Microsoft would obviously argue)."
So, uh, just disable TPM, if your computer is eligible, but you don't
want the forced upgrade? Did TechRadar's staff already forget that
fiasco in 2021, when they teased Win11 with a borked utility that told
me, having a *brand new* Win10 PC, that I couldn't upgrade, not
bothering to say if I turned on TPM, that'd resolve it? Just unreal,
how stupid the Winblows world is.

You mean like ...
I Stand With Israel!
... people who stand with Israel (!)? Go fuck yourself, kike.
So, I have a question: will 24H2 magically be less bloated, by the
time you agree to install it? Heh.

I don't know about the others, but you certainly are a fuckhead. A dumb
fuckhead at that.
Unlike Netanyahu, bombing women and children to hell? Idiot.
I certainly don't think your views on middle east issues has anything to
do with windows news groups, or Linux for that matter. I don't feel the
need to discuss this issue here. Neither do I see a need to compare you
to anyone else. You're in a fuckhead class all your own, as you
continue to prove.
Yeah, caring about Arab lives is like caring about nigger lives, in
America, let's just elect TrumpHitler president, never mind that*he*
killed 6 million Jews, in the past, now he's buddies with the kikes in killing sand niggers, FUCK THAT.
Welcome to WWIII, mother fuckers.

Or, in BIOS, disable the Intel PTT (Platform Trust Technology) which is
built into the BIOS firmware to emulate a hardware TPM module. Intel
PTT is an integrate TPM in the BIOS versus using a descete TPM module.
AMD also has their own version of PTT (aka fTPM) in BIOS. If you do
have a discrete TPM module, you probably can disable its access in the
BIOS settings. I did that long ago, and Windows Update on Windows 10
never offers Windows 11.

I hate to rain on Joel's (et al) parade, but the alleged 'nag' is even
less intrusive - but also less useful - than the previous one (which
also was just informational, not a nag).
My (wife's) Windows 10 system is set to Dutch, so I don't have an
exact cite, but the notification on the main Windows Update screen says something like:
"(i) Prepare yourself for Windows 11 Check hardware X
If you want to check if on this PC Windows 11 requirements
can be run, check the
hardware requiremments or go to the website
of the manufacturer of your PC."
Where 'Check hardware requirements' is a link to check the hardware requirements' and the 'X' will close the 'nag'.
Bottom line: Much Ado About Nothing
The last time I tried Linux which was about 1.5 years ago it sucked
monkey balls.
even Apple's crap has Unix components.

Ken Thompson, one of the original Bell Labs crew that created Unix in the
first place, and an Apple fan for many years, has given up on them and
switched to Linux.
That tells you all you need to know.
You're a fucktard of a nerd, dipshit. I already said that, in my
post. Eat shit.

I'm no Apple fan, but macOS isn't just *nix, i.e. 'unix'/'Unix', but actually UNIX.

Didn't it have some relationship to Carnegie Melon "Mach" ?
Maybe it's just a microkernel.

"Mach's derivatives are the basis of the operating system kernel
in GNU Hurd and of Apple's XNU kernel used in macOS, iOS, iPadOS,
tvOS, and watchOS."
All remarkable projects, to be sure. And yet nothing in existence has
bested Linus Torvalds' ingenious kernel. Linux is the king of
kernels.

There are quite a few different RPC mechanisms around. There seems to be
no “ideal” one. Was yours high-level or low-level? That’s the first major division between them (roughly).
If you remember your history, the legacy MacOS used cooperative
multitasking, which made it an unstable piece of crap.
Preemptive multitasking was the solution.
