>Windows 11 is literally a dead end trainwreck that is burning the 30 year reputation and trust of windows with normies>Windows 10 is basically end of life supportSo, windows is fucked?Is this the year of linux?
>>107803325i was thinking yesterday : why do we care ? like isn't it possible to just make it still alive without windows corpo ? .net framework etc without microsoft ? after all it's software so you can duplicate as much as you want.React os didn't give a fuck and made their own way nah ?
normies don't "prefer" or "trust" anything, they are literally incapable of learning new things and questioning status quo.This is also the reason I laugh at any attempts at "conversion"
Just wait for windows 12, Satya will fix everything.
>>107803338>React os didn't give a fuckthey give a lot of fucks actually that's why it's so shit cause they can't just do whatever
>>107803340the average normie uses more android than windows, boomer.
>>107803325>Is this the year of linux?yes linux will be getting tons of new users but towards end of the year the market share of linux will drop once again, linux is still SHIT for desktop
runs all the software i use with no problems.
Seriously what went wrong with the gigajeet? He's been CEO since 2015 iirc, he's the one responsible for azure and microsoft jumping on the cloud bandwagon which was objectively a great decision With ai he did shit but keeps doubling down on it at every public appearance it seems. And it's not just windows, which probably doesn't bring a lot of revenue, they're ai slopping everything
>>107803325Loonix will never, ever, ever, EVER beat windows. If windows actively dispersed anthrax into the air it would still have a higher market share.
>>107803325It's the year of mac.....
>>107803379They will get rid of him if the Microslop meme doesn't die down
Normies don't care. Only nerds care about operating systems.Most normies don't even know what their "OS" is or that any update even happened.You're using a product targeted to and tailored for double digit IQ simpletons and you are complaining?"You can get away with nearly anything and your customer will probably not even realize what's up or they won't care" is the whole business model of any normie-facing product. It's a big reason why it's so stupidly profitable.
>>107803325Windows died with XP.
>>107803325thats what people said about windows 10, 8, vista, xp, 2000, and ME
>>107803379>keeps doubling down on itThat's because all bets are off now. He can't change his mind because that means he made a wrong decision in the past which doesn't play well with investors.
>>107803391Macos will never be popular because the majority of the world computers cost around 300 bucks and apple is not even a player in that field
>>107803927Nah, people loved 2000, I was there
>>107803325It's pointless to play bragging games at this point because EVERYTHING is a dead end trainwreck
>>107803340>I don't have sex therefore my opinion is somehow relevant or validAt this point, it really isn't. Maybe at one time in the early internet that was true, when there was a high bar of entry, but at this point " normies " as you call them, sex-havers, people who can get a smile on their face and have friends and family, do more active computing than you do, and you contribute and create nothing and offer no value to anyone. So acting like this somehow makes you "elite" like you have some kind of special skill no one else can attain because you squat all day in your filth shitposting on /g/, one the lowest-information tech boards/sites/forums on the planet, simply isn't an impressive resume checkbox anymore.tldr you missed out and basically you're the unwashed bread and circus masses. it's you.
>>107803997like twelve people even used 2000 and nine of them immediately went back to 98
>>107803987Not yet, but the Macbook releasing this year with an iPhone chip inside to compete with Chromebooks will change that.
>>107804162I used 2000 a lot. They were different branches. 2000 came from the NT line, it wasn't "the same" as 9x (and there were compatibility issues with a lot of software in those days). All furfaggots should kts
>>107803325it's literally as bad as Windows 10.7 was the last OS where they didn't try and shove ads and shitty services everywhere (until the end with the updates that would nag you to updoot)
>>107803325windows 7 last update this month. and i am continue to use it. next year or two maybe i will move to 10 and update 10 until 2035.
>>107803325linux won't ever catch on until OEMs or stores start bundling laptops with linux, normoids don't install an OS
>>107803375>RAD StudioJesus fucking christ man have some decency...
>>107804195is that some pedophile art package or something?
>>107804225It's a commercial IDE/Development env for Turbo Pascal and it's so fucking shitty. It's the worst IDE I've ever used. And it's a fucking skin on top of some version of visual studio...
>>107804234Sorry not turbo pascal but delphi I meant.. Delphi...
>>107804239same shit, different brand name.
>>107804234oh ickalso can't believe people actually have excel installedi mean not that anything else is betteri have libreoffice on my linux hobby machine and if i leave a window open it always crashes within 12 hours
>>107803325this is the year of windows 7, never using linuzz
>>107803325Windows will be fine. Linux will never have a shot with people who have shit to do on their computer.
>>107803325>Is this the year of linux?No. They will keep using windows or switch to mac.
>>107803363The average normalfag worldwide is a Chinese man named Zhangwei who has 1 testicle and half a set of ovaries.
I want to install Windows 10 but with no spyware and no Copilot/AI. How do I do this in 2026?
>>107804162>like twelve people even used 2000 and nine of them immediately went back to 98Mostly because 2000 had much higher system requirements (esp. RAM) and wasn't even usable for basic tasks in their shitboxes w/ 32 or 64MB ram. Windows 2000 Professional needs a minimum 64MB ram to be usable for basic tasks, and preferably 128MB or more to run well.It also needed a few tweaks and customization for optimal usage as a desktop OS (which most people didn't do), and had poor compatibility with bing bing wahoo, this also drove off many people.>>107804173>there were compatibility issues with a lot of software in those daysNot really. Other than bing bing wahoo, almost every software made for Win9x and even many programs made for Win3.x, worked without issues in Windows 2000 Professional (I was there too).
>>107803379you think anyone still cares about "consumers"?
>>107804432Yes really. Maybe not for your baby consumer toy programs, but it was a major conversion problem for those of us who were working with NT kernel then
>>107803325>Is this the year of linux?
>>107803325windows is not that bad under that horrible jeet UI. Strip all the recent pajeetware and bake win2k gui on top of it and it and it would be diamond.
>>107804760See >>107804379 - is there any advice/guide on how to do this exactly? I just want whatever corporate edition there is that will protect trade secrets from being stolen by Indians.
>>107804779maybe this, I use it as "server" under proxmox, no obvious drawbacks for now, everything works.
>>107804035>do more active computingMost people don't use computers at all.
Protip: You can just keep using Windows 10 indefinitely.It's not like it stopped working because it went out of support (i.e. stopped receiving buggy jeeted updates).
>>107803325No, most people don't want to think when using their technology and look for convenience. While Linux is getting closer, you still have to be willing to troubleshoot if things go wrong and to tinker to get things how you like it.So with that, I think they will either switch to MacOS or stick with Windows out of pure convenience and laziness
>>107805143>actually recommending a deprecated OS>in a tech forumRetard detected
>must updoot or else it stops working
>>107803325I've been hearing this for 40 years now. it still hasn't happened.
>>107803325>kills your tranny desktop in its crib
>>107805321lol like redditors shaking in fear when their phone stops receiving security updates.
>>107803391Only if they stop charging the apple tax.
>>107803927I didn't mind xp but I survived me so just about anything is better than that train wreak.
>>107803325power users use linuxsheep use windows and macit's as simple as that
>>107806460Macs are for people who have sex and power.Linux are for people who have neither, or as I've recently taken to calling them, lincels.By the way, linux has flatlined for decades, literally no one is switching to linux. Every user Windows loses is going Mac, don't kid yourself with your tranny delusions.
>>107803325>Win10 gets updates and "support">it's broken as shit every other week>Win10 "support" ends>it works fine>Win11 has "support">it's broken as shitHuh, funny how that works. Maybe "support" in the form of constant forced updates is actually a bad thing? Maybe an "unsupported" product is actually just a finished product, and its lack of changes actually makes it easier to support? Really makes you think.
>>107803325how long is this gif
>>107803325>Is this the year of linux?No, it never will be. You cry about windows every major release and everytime you loonix retards lose.
>>107807562I watched 'till the end, pretty funny.
>>107807492I think you might just actually be retarded
>>107803325Normies will never switch to Linux, if they have to look at a command prompt even once their brains will short out.
>>107806722This.
>>107805143>Protip: You can just keep using Windows 10 indefinitely.How without Copilot?
>>107803325>>Windows 10 is basically end of life support2032>Is this the year of linux?No it's still shit, go back to work tinkertranny i want it ready by 2032
