I mean, it definitely got Lemmy frothing at the mouth.
I knew this would be here…
Look, I’m normally not one to defend M$ but this just isn’t the case. One dude who was on stage for something else, who yes worked for M$ but isn’t PR or anything, made that statement as an offhand comment. The press ran with it, as they are wont to do.
Bottom line is, M$ never claimed W10 was their last os. It was “just some guy”.
Except that won’t be able to get over the main hurdle of “bad internet means bad OS”.
Lmao, no.
They don’t want users using this, it would be a mess. M$ would need to provide consumer facing OS support if they ever tried it, which is something they’ve vehemently refused to do for decades. It would also lead to their OS being blamed as the problem when the internet is having issues. Not to mention the consumer market isn’t really where they get their revenue from when it comes to OS sales.
They want enterprise subscriptions. End of story. Enterprise subs mean there’s an enterprise IT team involved, to at least a bare minimum extent.
They aren’t likely to want end users on this pretty much ever. It’s virtually all downside for them.
I appreciate you mentioning this.
The point miner specifically was of little use to me, but it had never occurred to me that an application could authenticate and then just pretend to watch things. This lead me to the twitch drop miner, which seems to be exactly what I’m looking for.
I know my neighbors.
- One of them went no contact when my wife asked how they could possibly support trump when he is so clearly against their religious ideals.
- A fraction I would rely on for general help but nothing major.
- Half I would rely on to shoot me for inconveniencing them.
- The rest won’t answer the door if I knock.
I feel attacked.
It’s also difficult for other Canadians visiting from other providences.
Hell, it’s difficult for other Canadians when they visit us. One of my rudest interactions in the service industry was interacting with a Quebecker couple in Ontario. They were outraged that I didn’t understand French.
Outlandish is the idea of them using their turn signal.
They still do, after multiple DUI’s.
I feel the need to point out that water cooling has an upper limit as well. If you get things hot enough, the water is going to flash into steam, at which point it’s going to decimate whatever system it’s in.
You can add additives to prevent that, but at some point it’s no longer “water”.
Reading this back, I suppose this is pedantism. But still.
