>"Guys, I got a 64-bit computer!">came preinstalled with 32-bit Windows XP.Why did literally any distributor do this?
>>107826705> 2007 which is when XP was still relevant.2007 was still win2k era. XP era started in like 2010.
>>107823385Because there was no point to 64 bit XP unless you had over 4 GB RAM, which very few people did back then. Unless you had a need for it, all it did was cause incompatibilities with hardware that only had 32 bit drivers, and use more RAM.For a more egregious example, look at how long 386 PCs were sold with real mode DOS.
>>107829242Are you retarded and/or trolling?
>>107823750intel launched prescott based server chips, ~2004 , they have 64bit support, can take large amounts of memory, often forgotten though is that you dont actually need 64 bit support to use more than 4gb of memory, you just need PAE
>>107823832intels first generation 'core' processors were mobile chips and didnt have 64 bit extensions, apple used these in their first generation intel mackbooks and mac minis

This simple idea of having 2 USB-C ports CANNOT be done because it stops the zoomer from buying wireless ear buds(battery inside will always go to shit and unusable in ~3 years)and you would be stuck using extremely affordable, high quality audio headphones or in ear buds(that are a bit too green for the planet in 2026) also the 3.5mm headphone jack looks like a penis that goes inside a hole and basically why aren't you a wireless, constantly charging gay trans in 2026 right now.am i finally getting it /g?

people are starting to forget that Windows actually was good a long time ago, it has been 13 long years
>>107821888Well, that and the immense lack of driver support upon launch. It taught many an important lesson: never be an early adopter of any kind of tech unless you're just tinkering.

>>107825321>Were CRTs really that much better than the displays of today?in some ways they were. we did get to high definition crt (and that shit was amazing) but the tubes and electronics were so heavy it took two fit men to move the tv - and even then those two men would struggle.>>107825507>when you project your mental collapse on an image board: the postsad cringe>>107828151>no burn ins.>no bezelsfrom the land of fantasy and the make believe. crt had both, zoomy zoomzoom.

>>107825650>in 2 years it was Crysis.I get you man, I lived through the 90s and today? Imagine that Crysis is almost 20 years now and it still looks GOOD even by today's standards. Sure, vidya might not be a good benchmark of all technology progress, but it still shows that we have stalled in some aspects. Hardware is vastly more powerful than in 2007 (although it has stalled in its own way - essentially being just buffed up hardware from mid 2000s) but software didn't follow. Instead of utilizing that power for improvements, developers used it to allow themselves to be more sloppy in their work, releasing shitty code is apparently allowed now because the hardware can make up for it.
>>107825321for motion(games), absolutely.for black levels, until oled it was superior.for reading/creating text, never. a flickerfree lcd is far more comfortable on the eyes. though many use bad pulse width modulation which is worse than crt, you go from rolling scan to staring at a stroboscope. my favorite was the lg flatron 795+, one of the first with a completely flat screen and no annoying two trinitron lines.
When they are going to kick out this idiot out and find somebody normal as CEO ?Nobody has ever ruined reputation of Microsoft like this jeet. I know, i know REPUTATION hah... like they did have any yet in just this year they got lot of new names Microslop is the current one going on. Im not against AI i just hate having it on my PC and in every fucking program that's why im currently using Mint which isn't the best but you don't have the feeling that you are constantly being watched.

>>107825277The only acceptable way is to keep all xdg-compliant configurations in /etc/ or ~/.config/,placing all non-compliant configs in ~/.config/, as well, unless it's simply not an option, and keeping a directory in your ~/ where you cp -r all of your edited dotfiles and cp -rs the directories back in place. Then, root can take custody of the configuration files with trusted code.
>>107827232No it's not.Windows was widely regarded as a 16-bit DOS app. So they called the compatibility layer "Windows on Win32", shortened to WOW32.Fast forward 15 years, Windows was widely regarded as a 32-bit environment. So they called the compatibility layer "Windows on Win64", or WOW64.You need a System folder for the files used by the compatibility layer, and you might as well name it after the compatibility layer, so "System Folder for Windows on Win64", or SysWOW64.

>>107817990>frutiger aeroGod that sounds so gay. It's Aero! Just Aero! Always has been. Always will be.>>107819453I always hated macs UI from a usability standpoint. I swear to god steve jobs never wanted to move the window controls over to the right hand side to accommodate the majority right handed population because thats how microsoft does it. Same with the stupid ass dock and menu bar. The menu bar makes multitasking hard. Especially if you have multiple windows open of the same program like word or excel. And the dock feels like a half assed attempt at a windows task bar. Its funny how when microsoft ripped off the dock idea from apple they made it so much better. It feels like the entire macos was designed to give you tunnel vision. Where as windows was made for flexibility and easier switching between apps. Shit apple didnt even adopt a proper window tiling feature until recently. You had to hover over the green button and wait for the submenu to pop up.
