Congratulations, this announcement really does ticks all the boxes.
downright determined to develop the shittiest computation experience mankind has ever known
Well that sounds just fucking awful!
I think they know that they have a shitty product that nobody asked and everybody hates, but they also know that corporations and institutions have their workflows and custom software stacks built on top of windows and therefore them and their workers are not very easily going to jump ship. Only thing they need to make sure of that they don't break 40 years of backwards compatibility. Understanding that, why the fuck not just milk people? If it backfires, then it backfires, but even then Microsoft makes more money on Office 365 alone than they do from Windows.
Yes, by all means, make a new OS and paywall all the AI garbage on there. Please.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Just what nobody wanted!
This sound so horrible, I might finally "upgrade" to 11.
Win 11 was such a success, so it is of course absolutely logical Microslop will double down on going that way.
Subscription based. I missed that. So happy I switched.
If there was ever hope that Microslop would correct its ways, this is proof that there is no reason to hope
Bro we just wanna own the things we bought and paid for. You're not making a good argument here, Microslop.
That's because SaaS doesn't WANT you to own anything...
Affinity.
I just need Affinity.
And then I can dump Windows.
