"Maybe Later" Intensifies.
I can already see that I'm going to regret having upgraded one of my machines to macOS 15. Has anyone figured out how to make this dark-pattern patronizing bullshit permanently take "yes" for an answer?

@jwz My $20 solution to that problem: https://www.g2a.com/microsoft-windows-10-pro-microsoft-key-global-i10000083916004?suid=a81688df-9016-420c-8709-4e6fc738b6a2
Seriously, though, I’ve been nauseous about this for weeks. No OS upgrades for me until this goes away or is fixed in a supportable way. Corollary: I may never buy another Mac.
@joshrivers @jwz oh come on. At least don't give money to dodgy companies
@joshrivers @jwz you can use the offline versions.
@falken Still requires an internet connection to activate, no?
@joshrivers that page says no, for the KMS38 method
Details agree @ https://massgrave.dev/kms38
@falken Very nice! I like seeing the manual/scratch methods as well.
@joshrivers it's certainly insightful
@falken @jwz super cool alternative. I worry about needing to complete those registrations online. I don’t know if that could hassle me later if MS decides to crack down.
