Fixed m$ brainwashing presentation
The truth is that it is open for Microsoft. They can view what users do. So they weren’t lying.
Getting ready to go back to Linux, just waiting to get some other stuff out of the way. Taskbar autohide on my Win10 box stopped working this morning. Minor annoyance, I looked it up and found a simple fix - restart the Windows Explorer process. Okay, did that, autohide started working. Bur srsly, the taskbar is almost 30 years old, low-level shit like this SHOULD JUST WORK. Now 12 hours later I just noticed it’s not working again. What the Actual Fuck, guys? Unbelievable.
Windows also throws my grub in a woodchipper >:(
I’m sure a lot of people started taking unnecessary code executed at low levels a lot more seriously after the Crowdstrike fiasco.
Well, Windows implemented kernel-level protection to prevent another Crowdstrike situation. lt actually makes kernel-level game anti-cheats to break.
Well thats good in terms of putting linux on an even playing field
SO.MANY.DEAD.CODES.
Have you seen old 80’s-90’s style C driver code? Lines of code is an even more terrible metric for this than it usually is.
I think the fact that any old code is being removed at all is a good thing. The point of the post (at least from my perspective) is that deleting old code is something necessary for prolonged support of a codebase and it’s not something Microsoft is or maybe even ever will prioritize.
