Do you think Windows would improve and maybe start respecting it's users if the government broke up Microsoft into several companies? My reasoning is that Windows has near monopoly, so many industries and users are dependent on Windows now that switching is not realistic. Microsoft's biggest competitor in the consumer space, Apple, has less than 10% market share and shrinking. So of course, Microsoft is changing their business model from making money off of each sale of a license of Windows/upgrades to new versions of Windows, to using Windows to collect and sell your data and advertise other Microsoft services since Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, so they'll no longer make any money off of upgrades. If Microsoft as a company was broken up into several different companies, they wouldn't be able to profit off of using Windows as a vehicle to sell you other Microsoft services like Office and OneDrive and Bing and Xbox games. They would pretty much have to revert to the business model they had when they put out Windows 7, which is making money by making you want to use Windows, not making money by having other companies want you to use Windows so they can use your data.

I am reading Silberschatz Operating System Concepts, and now, on the topic of virtual memory management,
this one fucking detail escapes me. I have without exaggerating been googling for hours with no luck.
It's like everyone describing this is just skipping this tiny detail in their explanation.

TL;DR: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ABSOLUTE AND A PHYSICAL MEMORY ADDRESS??

So, what I think I understand is this:
Every application has its own logical (virtual) address space, where each address reference is translated in the
MMU at run-time if run-time address binding is the scheme in use, which apparently is the case in most
multi-purpose operating systems.

According to the book, address-binding can in some instances (e.g. within drivers) need to be mapped to
absolute addresses at compile-time, or to relocatable or relative addresses at compile-time and then to
absolute addresses at the program’s load-time, in contrast to delaying the address binding to run-time with
aid of base/bounds registers.
The book gives the example of a relocatable address as: 8 bytes _from this point_ (so an address location
is defined by it's relative position to something else),
and an absolute address as: _At_ byte 1008.

The book says that if an application binds its symbolic (eg int var) addresses to absolute addresses at
compile-time, this process cannot be moved around in memory, as the absolute address is directly tied
to its position in main memory.

What then simply escapes me is the difference between a physical and absolute address. If an absolute
address refers to an absolute point in memory, is it not the same as a physical address, then? I have honestly
been searching for an answer for hours. Please help me understand this /g/, my autism is flaring up. I suppose
it's possible that the reason I'm struggling to understand this is because my understanding of some underlying
concepts are flawed.

pic related I guess I didn't know what to put.
