What, Windows is charging for stuff, going to Linux right now, if they are not broken again...

"Microsoft decides to shaft people with perfectly capable hardware that they refuse to upgrade."

A much more accurate headline, but something tells me that their marketing department wouldn’t go for it.

"Microsoft decides to shaft people with perfectly capable software that they don't want to upgrade."
I haven't heard of new boot sector viruses for years. I think that the market for new virus signatures for Win95 viruses is rather small, too. So why don't you all switch to Win11, leaving me alone with Win10. Noone is going to develop a virus for my machine only!

Does anyone else see the irony in this?
To help prevent the scourge of ransomware in computers with Windows 10, Microsoft will now implement ransomware in the security updates and patch process.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
To put this in the perspective of "Lord of the Rings": Ransomware = Sauron; Microsoft = Saruman.

I'm trying to figure out why this is even news. Microsoft has done this for every NT based OS they've ever produced, all the way back to Windows NT 3.51.

?
I know they've had it for businesses, but this is the first time they're doing extended support for consumers (that I know of).

GPT-4 Turbo is on the way soon, alongside improvements to the DALL-E 3 model and deep search results for Bing. Now even more Co-CoPilot

Definitively, the guys of the marketing department must be enjoying the buzzword bingo party...

23andMe put a number to the millions of users affected by a recent data breach. Time to change your DNA, I guess

Yes! Time for a new shot! (I hear there's a new WiFi as well - they can combine them)

What's the opposite of OpenAI? IBM and Meta devise plan that includes 50 members. If you can't beat 'em, create a group and don't invite them

Isn't this a little monopolistic?

Oligopolistic, maybe. Or whatever the correct term is for a group of companies collaborating to control the market. (remembering words is hard these days)

I think the word you're looking for is cartel.

What lessons can we learn from the demise of 'mini' form factor, architectures and companies? It's hard to carry them to a LAN party

Because we have about as much computing power in the palm of our hands?
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

Quote: Windows 10 users may not get Copilot yet due to the same weird bug that’s plagued Windows 11 Mmmm... but they do not say anything about not getting the bug
Quote: The one where Copilot mischievously moves your icons around in multiple monitor setups I can imagine the managers at MS: YOU!!! Fix that outrageous bug NOW!!!... Icons are SACRED.
