It could happen to you.

MS would be wild to expect people to buy a new machine before 2036. Consumer prices aren’t going to magically fall.

Either this is incorrect info, a huge flop, or MS really doesn’t care if home users switch to Linux from all the cash flowing in from businesses.

Oh boy.

Wow they must have really taken a sales dive. Nice.

This sounds like leasing renamed. Not unusual in the enterprise space.

I don’t think a newcomer could do it, but a company like Intel is posed to be in a good position. They don’t have much market share but they have a good product.

Someone is going to make bank by catering to consumers. Will the market accept nvidia back with open arms if/when the ai investments fall through?

Wait Cuba is a threat? Is it from the decades of economic depression enforced by the US?

Yikes.

They will still have 99.9% availability with no maintenance windows.

Stock rpi released in December.

I just set up a raspberry pi and i couldn’t figure out if it would automatically update, there wasn’t any gui option for it.

I found a few websites all with different methods to set up auto update. One of the most accepted was some cli that was encouraged to copy/paste. It installed something, but it then needed additional config to work on rpi.

30 mins from the time I powered on it was ready. In windows, it’s enabled out of the box and searching for “updates” on the task bar finds it for you.

Which of these OS’s was easier?

Stop calling it green and start calling it cheap/free if you want to make some progress.

Nope. The jump in battery life is impressive.

I’ve known two people that sleep very little. One was a guy from google that managed a team and also taught and did other stuff.

I was doing the math and it didn’t make sense so I asked him about it and he said that he only slept 5 hours a day and it’s stressful on his family life, and that his dr keeps telling him it’s not healthy.

The other person was someone that ran the company I worked for. I could tell by the remote access logs that he was going inactive around 2am and then would be back on by 6am. It didn’t seem possible and as a security concern I talked to him about it. He said that he barely sleeps. I verified it by talking to his assistants.

Both of these people were extremely successful in their careers. I think it’s some sort of OCD that they’ve harnessed.

Probably not AWS directly, just services on AWS that are also tied into azure. Quite the impressive failure domain.

No, but their uptime is a lot better than most. A lot of companies would have monthly outages just for patching before they moved to massively scaled hosted services.

Remember when BlackBerry would have an outage maybe once a year and everyone complained?

Love this. I don’t know much about risc-v but I’d love to see it disrupt the market a bit.
