As long as they're moving forward faster than X% of the users blocking updates, it diminishes incentives to write malware for the OS

No matter how bad people like to pretend MS is making it by forcing people off the beaten path, its still a million times better than making it easy to disable updates.

Fact of the matter is, the 1% of users pitching a fit about this stuff just don't matter. All that matters is switching shit up often enough to keep that 1% from becoming the 10%.

I know that the whole threat of switching to Linux is tossed around a lot here, but DESU if all the people who were fucking around trying to bypass MS would just fucking switch to Linux instead of just threatening to, the OS landscape would be a lot better.

I cant imagine the massive amount of narcissism required to think you're smarter than a multi-billion dollar corporation, with all of their strategists and lawyers. General rule of thumb is, if you see MS do something and it takes you less than a week to find a flaw with the decision, its pretty much a guarantee that someone at MS has already weighed the pros and cons and decided you're wrong. If you're smarter than MS, then by all means start your own OS and rule the market.

There's been a huge upswing in disinformation in these threads, and in the community in general. At the end of the day, YOU are the one who loses if you take bad advice.

Is this the Microsoft endgame? Phones with full W10 instead of a "mobile OS" ?

Will Microsoft make PC's and Laptops obsolete?

Hi /g/, does anyone have recommendations for some good, intuitive video editing software? I need to edit some shit for my job, but don't really have much experience. Seems like most people are using Adobe Premier or Sony Vegas.

For anyone still in doubt Zeppelin does indeed support 10G Base.

There's also some neat stuff in the programmer reference manual for Zen.

Need a new tablet for a family member. She's still using the kindle fire version 1. Told her to wait for the new tablets to come out this year but she won't listen.

What is the best android tablet out just now for ~£250ish? She just watches shit on youtube so decent speakers would be appreciated
