main problem is.. it needs time and adoptionrate.

it's fucking boring to not being able to play with your personal friends because there is no game that builds on longevity like league of legends or WoW

Cloud computing.

Pretty much anything that comes from PR and liberal arts faggots.

>calling desktop programs "apps"

Why do freetards feel entitled to other people's source code?
Fuck off and write your own free implementation if you want it SO BAD.

It's his right. Should you be required to give up things built in your spare time just b/c someone like it?

>Open source automatically means GPL

It's microsoft trying to compete with apple at the apple price bracket.
Except it's actually worse and they're literally selling $2100 laptops that can't even run win32 applications, or dev tools or even other OSes.

I have a Surface that had Windows 10 installed and it was great for gayming using win32 applications but then I got tired of only playing games and not contributing at all to the wonderful world that is games so I downloaded dev tools to make my own games and they worked fine but then I got sick of the Win10 botnet and Cortana's stupid shit with candy and such so I wiped my drive and installed Ubuntu and now I comfortably write games on Ubuntu on a Surface.
Screw you.

I love how they always show the lockscreen in promo materials because that's literally the only somewhat aesthetic part of Windows.

This is really lovely, DSA have been way too expensive before.

>>60626802
It might work at short distances and low speeds if both device's tolerances are sufficient. You certainly couldn't rely on it.

>>60626802
I mean it COULD work, like >>60626824 says. Wires are simply wires, nothing more than what you connect at each end. You could even run a DC circuit with ethernet cables by manipulating the wiring; it doesn't have to be an internet connection going through the cable. As long as you line up the wiring correctly, it could easily act as a USB extension cable.

>>60626802
It probably wont. To go above the standard's limit you need really good and expensive cables or extenders. We buy some super expensive DVI cables at work to extend the max range some 5 meters. It works most of the time.

Sounds like you're home mate, unless you're surrounded by women and indians
