Microsoft Activation Scripts has a method to activate three years of extended security updates on Windows 10 for free.

Bonus: Microsoft tech support has been repeatedly caught using these scripts to resolve support tickets for license issues. (https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/microsoft-support-cracks-windows-for-customer-after-activation-fails/)

Edit: If you go this route, please also see the FAQ entry here. There is currently a glitch with commercial ESU keys (which this uses) and Windows Update will continue to claim that your device will no longer receive security updates. This is also effecting W10 LTSC systems. However, you can verify that the license key is active through Command Prompt and instructions are given in the FAQ.

Yes, but that top layer isn't square. There's one more row towards the top left. Some Qs need to be removed or added to bring balance to the qube.

Board rooms, not class rooms.

Counterargument: no.

E: To elaborate, the terms of service say:

"**We do not tolerate threats of and calls for violence in any form against any living creature.**"

Merely expressing glee is not calling for violence or threatening a living creature. Banning someone for a rule they didn't break, for any duration, is overreach.

That boogie-board enthusiast, who happened to be born in 1988, is going to be pretty pissed if they try changing their license plate.

It's a blue 1992 Mazda Miata with a hardtop. I've owned it for about 7 years. No mods besides basics like a bluetooth radio and a short fixed antenna (instead of the factory retracting whip antenna). Maintenance is easy and replacement parts are dirt cheap. Recently replaced the clutch master/slave cylinders for about $40 worth of parts. A set of four tires can easily be found under $400. It averages around 26.5 miles per gallon in combined city/highway driving and I got 32 on my last long distance highway trip.

I'm daily driving a 32-year old car. I have no interest in something newer. AMA.

Yeah, this does not align with my experience.

Voyager and Jerboa are both good options if this bothers you. I didn't have to agree to any permissions when I installed both as no data is collected. No ads too!

I didn't know the Air Force and FAA had jurisdiction over the entire Earth.
