Windows 12 will just be chrome serving a windows-looking webpage
>Windows 10>actually Windows 6.4 but they changed it to 10 for consistency
remember the windows 10 nag message?>windows 10, the last windows you'll ever need
>>101584324and immediately fucked it up for some reason
>>101584329>Windows 12 is in development as we speakWhoops! I guess Microsoft's expert software developers did a fucky wucky. Never underestimate the cycle of improvement.
>>101584733>I guess Microsoft's expert software developers did a fucky wuckythey've been doing for 40 years, surely they can't be that retarded...
>>101584758I'm sure they are, given that one forgotten incident with CrowdStrike not too long ago.

>>101584774They're trying to use that as an excuse to lock down kernal access for programs, for better or worse. Wonder what'll happen to anticheats
Its just a build number, it could be whatever the fuck they want but developers insist on querying that specific variable to be able to identify the OS they are running on instead of using the APIs
>>101584875>Wonder what'll happen to anticheatsgood riddance
>>101584774Bashing Microsoft is fun,but that mass BSOD thing can't be blamed on them.It is 100% CrowdStrike's fault.

>>101584300heh i was wondering why I wasn't seeing any windows 11 on my webserver's logs referersnow it makes sense
>>101584300What happened to NT 7, 8 and 9
>>101584779EPBP
>>1015868669 was terrified of 7 and ran away7 got locked up
>>101585393stupid benchmark, even if you allocated 1 core max to each VM, the OS scheduler can still interleave work from all 3 on the same core.
>>101586919No 8 got terrified and ran away

>>101587444why is microsoft unable to name their products coherently?
>>101584300Because many developers are regarded.There was a ton of code out there which checked whether the OS name starts with 9x (to avoid Win 95, 98, etc.), and as a consequence would not support Windows 9 or anything with a version 9.Microsoft just said fuck it and skipped a bunch of numbers.
>>101584875anticheats are made by large corporations. They will get exceptions of course. Only you, the user, will lose access/control. That is the purpose of trusted computing- it's not _your_ trust being protected.
>>101587696lazy faggots coded OS support checks to look for "windows 9*" back on windows 95 and 98
