lol corporate isn’t a stronghold. It’s a big part were the erosion is coming from. So many businesses don’t need x86 and windows any more. Low power arm is the current hotness and ai is an expensive joke

Kernel level access is to stop access plain and simple. That includes user access rights absolutely.

For those who can’t see the writing on the wall.

Privileged access will include admin access and eventually the ability to make changes to Windows is coming to an end.

The distribution will be enshitified from the install to the updates and you wont be able to do a thing. Exactly like android, ios ect.

Microsoft are doing the opposite of what customers want. The ONLY way this changes is with real competition. If you are only familiar with Microsoft as a professional. It’s no time like the present to step outside the rent seekers and see what the rest of the industry is doing.

Meh

Pure copium.

They are both handheld gaming devices. Consumers do not care about anything else, just wait until the xbox handheld eats even more of those sales.

Lol what comical copium.

They are both handheld gaming devices. To claim otherwise is nothing more than an ideological feature that only matters to 2% of thr market.

Remember kids, now is the time to slowly edit your old posts and comments replace them with AI gibberish and then after a while slowly delete them.

Less workplace rights and employee protections

Of course it does, microsoft are building themselves out of business.

Had a subscription, unsubscribed 6 months ago. Simplistically:

1. They create bad code,
2. You stop learnng. You want to program? Learn.

Leave it, tos 8 covers my point and yes its a case of my butthurt but its a recent pattern across communities in lemmy atm that seems to have started a nasty attempt thats trying to grow a grassroots campaign, this may not be one. Just reporting for your sake and others to raise awareness based on some social controversy in the distro. We should be lifting distros (and people) up not burning them for fake reasons

Recent research study I read that looked reasonable, it was posted here on lemmy. I’ll try and find it when I have time and edit this post.

Yes, it is.

Read the first line of my post above.

Nice astroturfing attempt

Doubt, highly doubt it.

I use nixos btw

Complete with home manager, flakes, build server and automated deployments, the whole lot on machines from compute stick, gaming rig, hell even a surface. I have never had more free time than compared to arch. updates & config drift are no longer anything I worry about. Save so much time on rebuilds & customisations.

Nixos users never recommend it for new users. I always recommend mint or Ubuntu depending on the person and what they are used to. Seasoned Linux users i don’t even recommend it unless they have basic programming skills.

After that, bring it on, stick through the learning curve, you dont need the documentation. I only needed it at the start for a short period until it clicked and I figured it out. the repo and search has more than enough. In the repo you will find community builds and configs for a wide variety of hardware.

It is amazing, the power of a mature immutable OS, is amazing. Frankly though Ive found the reality of nix the exact opposite: because everything is configured in the one place, updates, and changes in general are so easy and risk free (rollbacks a breeeeze). So i save more time than lose tbh.

Modules and flakes are next level.

Configure ALL THE THINGS!

No, that is not ROI, that would be growth above the normal growth for products and services. Problem being that they are just spinning normal growth as AI growth. Internally, they will not be seeing the growth realised. Billions spent and for what? A word predictor that is benchmarked at halucinating 80-90% of the time. Its simply appauling value when the content users get is wrong 80-90% of time, realised or otherwise. Utilization will be starting out high and falling off a cliff risking deepening reputational damage on the back of the thriving open source community.

Absolutely, Natella (intentional) has commented about the valueless hype for one. The stock value has little to do with short term returns especially considering they have more than 1 income stream. I would expect a correction in 12-24months as openai cash starts running dry and it begins reflecting in their stock value first and foremost.

Right now their stock value is pretty much flat. US market instability may put some serious pressure on the US tech stocks in the coming year, those 10 year bonds are not looking good.

Jesus why did discord ever get popular in the first place.

Because its more than a bunch of posts, its voice comms and thats more useful. So find a platform that does both and maybe people change, maybe. More likely we will have to wait for IPO and enshitification before that happens.
