This time around there are hardware requirements. Corporations equipment is not usually the latest hardware, and windows 11 is pushing customers to buy new hardware.

I suppose for many corporations upgrading to windows 11 would also mean upgrading the computer, which is an increase cost.

I can't wait for massive security problems on corporations once they shut down W10 support and those corporation considering if keeping with windows is woth the risk and the cost anymore.

I feel like I would need to see their accounting books to fully believe that narrative.

The lack of accounting transparency makes all a tale of "trust me I need this money to make this work".

Genuine question.

How is been running for almost 20 years, most of them with very few ads?

I doubt they had been just sinking money for the kind of their hearts.

I do not know how much it cost to run a service like YouTube. Or how much money they make by ads or other ways. But they have been running for long enough to be a successful business.

And it's just the latest few years when they are pushing these aggressive techniques.

Finally I don't need my computer for working, they provided us with company laptops, so I don't need to worry about compatibility and windows only programs anymore.

So you know what I'm going to do once windows 10 reaches eol.

For my it will certainly be the year of desktop linux.

More things used to be free on internet 10-20 years ago.

Also the rich used to be less rich, and the poor less poor.

So clearly paying overpriced services for everything is not making anything better.

If buying is not owning, pirating is not stealing.

NMS development is the best redemption arc story in a long time.

The laughing comes when you are so used to vim that you begin using :q in other programs and wonder why doesn't it exit.

Is there any mod you know for making the world larger/infinite?

I was a big fan of just traveling in Minecraft and finding new areas along the way. But minetest space constrains seems not to fit that playstyle unless there's a mod I don't know of.

I'm Spanish. And really, that judge is just in the pocket of the spanish media corporations. Telegram is used by 8 million spanish users daily for lots of different things.

Recently the UE forced WhatsApp to open a protocol so it can be compatible precisely with Telegram to avoid a monopoly.

If telegram elevates to the european court due to abuse of the spanish authorities they should win.

Everytime I want a distro that just works I just roll with Linux Mint.

Being one of the most popular distro if something goes wrong is really easy to find how to fix it .
