Use Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC until it lasts (~2027 iirc). And pray that Linux gets enough first-party support from hardware vendors till then, otherwise we’re properly fucked.
bluetooth works since like a decade
Lol no it doesn’t. It’s still entirely at the mercy of the OEM, many of who often don’t bother with Linux support. Acer is the biggest example.
Yes I do use HDR. Bluetooth too. Sorry Linux users, we exist.
Writers are people, not AI that improves its output quality the more money (hardware) you throw at it. The writers of the Halo TV show should have just been replaced with an entirely new team that actually understood the source.
there were several free antiviruses that were considered good back then
like?
No, it was the only free one. Freeware antiviruses weren’t common back then.
This being “smart” is entirely based on the assumption that the average user who’s actually trying to just get to their home screen won’t be pissed when the bloated chatbot pops up instead. And that assumption is wrong.
Why hasn’t Vimeo taken off? They look like they have the right idea of eschewing ads and letting creators paywall content behind subscriptions to make money.
No lie, I actually had to shift to Chrome from Firefox today. Some websites are straight-up broken on Firefox, while others load painfully slow (e.g. try arc.net on Firefox vs any Chromium-based browser). Not to mention the massive shame of Mozilla leadership treating its own flagship product as a second-class citizen in favour of “AI initiatives” or whatever the fuck those C-suites want to stud into their resumes.
It’s a genuine shame because Edge could very easily become the best browser on Windows if only MS played their cards right. Resource optimization of this browser is terrific and it leaves both Chrome and Firefox behind in terms of speed and snappiness. All MS needs to do is make it FOSS, strip down the unnecessary bloat and ensure firsthand content blocking support, and it will be straight-up unbeatable.
Microsoft Office and Adobe software are the main anchors to Windows currently. Anyone using them (as is professionally required) is stuck with Windows or MacOS.
I think it’s not that the significant amount of the population supports them, it’s rather that they detest the left and would side with anyone except the Dems.
You mean “couldn’t care less”. The way you’ve written it means that you do care a bit since you “could care less”.
Nonprofits are not “companies”, and no non-profit exists to make entertainment for you.
Facebook recently shutdown its AI Ethics division.
Meta is the only player that’s releasing its models to public. Ironically, it is the one being the most ethical in the AI space right now.
“AI Ethics” teams in the Silicon Valley are nothing but rent-seeking doomer cults that leech off on the effort of others and hold back progress with bullshit gatekeeping. There was not a single positive contribution Facebook’s AI “ethics” team ever made.
All the biggest tech/IT consulting firms that used to hire engineering college freshers by the millions each year have declared they either won’t be recruiting at all this month, or will only be recruiting for senior positions. If AI were to wipe out humanity it’ll probably be through unemployment-related poverty thanks to our incompetent policymakers.
I don’t think that has ever been the case. Hardware vendors are not very likely to listen to the whims of a tiny fraction of retail customers, especially the kind which don’t make them much money. Institutional clients are the only one who can have any such sway, and that too is a stretch in most cases.
Whatever push desktop Linux support may get, it will be coming from enterprise customers. So if you have any influence on your company’s IT dept get them to ask for it, especially since this is a golden opportunity as the dissatisfaction with Windows is at an all-time high.
