The 2021 LTSC is available in the plain vanilla version, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, with end of mainstream support scheduled January 12, 2027, and Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021, with an extended end date of January 13, 2032. They are not quite the same as the ordinary consumer editions of Windows 10. They don't include the Windows Store or any "modern" apps. Apart from the Edge browser, they have almost nothing else: no OneDrive, no Weather or Contacts apps, and no Windows Mail or whatever it's called this week.

...no OneDrive, Copilot AI, or all of the other useless crapware cluttering up the Start menu? AND patches/support through 2032??

Don't threaten me with a good time, Microsoft.

Youko Nakajima is THE protagonist of all time. She's an icon. She's everything. She got yeeted to another world by a gorgeous long haired blonde dude to be the empress of a kingdom at 16. Her sword tells her to kill herself 24/7. She almost starves to death like 5 times. She's getting attacked by man-eating monsters left and right. She befriends a child-sized rat and then abandons him while fighting giant birds like a lunatic. She almost got sold to a brothel. She has to unlearn the patriarchal standards placed upon her back home. Her next door neighbor and friend is a 500yo playboy. Her other next door neighbor is a bigoted old man trying to kill her. She rescues herself and the gorgeous tall blonde dude who's actually her heaven-assigned secretary. She lies to her ladies-in-waiting so she wouldn't have to have her ears pierced. She joins an uprising against herself. Her other two friends are 40 and 100 years older than her but consider themselves the same age as her. Both have contemplated ruining her life. She gets confused for a guy sometimes. She considered banning sighing because everyone was doing it around her when she became empress. She's illiterate.

If it isn’t ai, the rigging on the models is shit, and that’s concerning

I wish it wasn’t a hot take that a story in which two characters of any gender prioritize their purely platonic relationship over any other romantic or sexual interests they might have is a textually queer story
