  What if you really hate the fact that The RPi foundation is being hostile against people nowadays with telemetry, requiring a custom flash tool to get SSH and whatnot?

      Yes you can, but then without a display and keyboard you won’t be able to SSH into the thing right away. They’re pushing people into their tool and you’ll be seeing more of that crap in the future.

        Don’t you just touch SSH in the /boot dir after you flash, then you can SSH in as pi and password raspberry?
