    I was going to do this with the kids’ laptop until the internet connection became too unstable.

    I’d like to learn Docker and even Kubernetes on top of that. Having a computer I’m using for something specific will help with that a lot.

    And fuck Microsoft for only allowing remote desktop on enterprise versions of windows. I want to set up a remote connection so I can leave this laptop behind the TV and not need to touch it unless absolutely necessary. Any version of linux would let me do so

      MAS has a change windows edition feature, which I believe also lists the enterprise editions. I’m not sure if it works, or if there’s any catches, but I used it to upgrade from normal windows to pro and it worked well

      Also has IoT enterprise and education edition

        I heard it’s easy to change versions and even get free copies of windows. I ran this other tool I read about that I think edits the DLL files and just turns it on. If that doesn’t workI’ll try this

          I’ve only ever used MAS because it’s a fairly simple single PowerShell script, it works for activating office as well, which is nice. I wish I could actually buy a copy of modern office, without any of the annoying subscription BS
