wow… OS Subcription-Based with AI?
you’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy
I’m glad I already moved to Linux for 2 years
For all the people on here quick to mock others for being gullible enough to fall for AI-generated slop, this is embarrassing.
I’m genuinely looking forward to it. It’s going to be hilarious.
I’m curious on what they mean by “fully modular”. Coming from Linux I think I have a different definition of “fully modular” than they do.
Moved everything to Linux last year, so far I have no reason to consider going back. Unfortunately I’ll still likely end up using this slop at work.
Fun thing:
My laptop (from 2020) somehow skipped last year’s update and only recently decided to update to the most recent Windows 11 release. And my first thought was “oh shit, is it going to install that Recall nonsense?” …good news: not only is Recall not installed by default but the laptop is officially too shitty to run Recall. (…it’s perfectly adequate for running everything else though!)
Which got me thinking:
Remember how mad everyone was when Windows 11 came out, requiring TPM 2.0, and how people were asked to buy new hardware?
Gee golly gosh, I hope Microsoft isn’t seriously going to say “yeah, you’re going to need to buy a new computer - so you can utilise all these awesome new AI features, you see.” Because people just love buying new hardware. Again. In this economy.
Not doing a subscription based OS.
Just throwing that out there.
God fucking dammit. I just know I’ll have to use that shit at work too.
Fuck does fully modular mean?
I’ll go against the grain and say I like this. Maybe the AI, data collection, and enshittification will be something you have to subscribe to but the base bare bones OS will be free… /s
I know the Epstein files revealed that all the last Windows versions have been named after Microsoft leaderships’ preferred rape victim ages but I still don’t think I’m ready to switch to Linux.
Finally the year of linux desktop!
Absofuckinglutely not.
And I say this as a dedicated Windows user who spent a year on Ubuntu Linux a decade ago and hated it. Windows does this, and sign me up for penguin lessons.
Wtf is a “fully-modular” OS
Hahahahaha, get fucked Microslop
