could it be that i already lost the game?
Impossible to pirate. Money printingachine
This started a few months ago across the board. It's the dumbest realignment of their application stack ever ... With that being said, I think it's clear that the future of Microsoft is going to be them attempting to move the entire OS experience into the cloud no matter how misguided or unwarranted that approach may be.
Mainframe for the home user, with all files on their servers and, thus, controlled by them. That's always been their goal, but the tech just didn't exist until recently.
I don't use Microsoft....or apple
Windows 10 is my last windows, got 7 years til I go full Linux
At this point i'm pretty sure most windows users have a degradation fetish they're too ashamed to admit.
Capitalism's innovative creativity on full display.
Ever since Ford renamed all car components to car components it has been a total bitch to change a tire....
Me: hello jiffy lube, I have a flat car components.
JL: Well bring it right in, we'll fix that for you
Me: here's the car with the flat car components.
JL: oh I see, you've been in an accident. Yeah we don't fix that sort of flat car components. Go to Joe Shmow's Auto repair.
JSAR: yah, I looked everywhere for a fix to flat components and found nothing worth trying. Cat videos yeah. But maybe if we hammer a few more things.
Me: but that's the problem see this is supposed to be a dowel car component, but its flat. It used to be the thing a ma bob. But now its just another car components.
...the conversation would then drag on and included the economy, and politics.
Yep had this issue a while back now took a bunch of searching just to find it so crazy.
Are they doing this on purpose? Why would they even do something like that?
Having worked on products that are renamed to something equally ambiguous, I'd say they are trying to make it more difficult to find because they are trying to redirect customer attention to other places, and are deliberately making it difficult to talk about or search for. Unfortunately this is a very successful strategy. It's also very user hostile, and product engineer hostile. My heart goes out to any engineers that work in this product.
So they dont want people using remote desktop? What would they even get out of that, just making windows even worse to use. I guess its one less thing to maintain. Well, windows becoming worse is good for linux userbase so this is kind of good news in a way.
Yeah my dad's boss had this issue a couple weeks ago. His remote desktop app disappeared from his phone and he had no idea where. Figured out after looking for a whole day that they renamed it to this stupid bullshit.
Probably another case of too many bean counters (and marketing majors), and not enough software developers. Windows hasn't innovated in forever. Seems like they're the Walmart of operating systems, just cheaper and easier for most people.
I don’t want my OS to innovate. I just want it to be reliable. I can say this for MS, I haven’t seen a blue or any other color screen of death for, God, a decade? I’m pretty happy with Windows these days.
I've had the opposite happen since switching to Windows 11. Multiple BSODs a week on both machines. Super frustrating.
If you have the Pro or Enterprise variant of Win11 you can delay feature releases for a year. Makes it way more stable. Here is a link. The anchoring might be off a bit(it was for me). I had to scroll down a bit further. You still get security releases, it’s just all the ‘features’ that get delayed so you can figure out how to work around them.
Awesome thanks for the info on that.
So you need ChatGPT to get a helpful answer.
MS 1 : Google 0
It's been a while, i think, and yes, it was a pos move.
i usually press win+r and type 'calc' or 'cmd'. they could make that more efficient by assigning binary numbers to everything.
