Yeah. Twitter has always been a shit show, under Mush it just gets more unhinged and right-winged.

That was quick.

You did not misremembered it. They tried to make it difficult, got backlashed, then took a step back. All of it before Win11 was widely distributed, so some people never had to deal with it.

With that said. MS still looking ways to try forcing you to use Edge. Recently, all of your Chrome tabs just got reopen into Edge, “due to a bug”.

They did not outright declined it. They policy is not to engage wt commercial entities. Therefore, there is no contract or agreement of any kind. Nevertheless, Solvo may just voluntary donate to the project, for the PR.

We are getting there.

Nevertheless, I will keep my expectation in check, as to see if companies will keep up will the spirit of the law and/or the state will be serious in enforcement it.

I feel sorry for anyone who had to sat through this event. It was the most boring and soulless presentation I have ever seen. It it the definition of “This could have just been an email”.

Microsoft’s game plan seems to be:

1. Sell a cool idea, halfheartedly.
2. Abandon the idea.
3. Wait until someone else done it right.
4. Ripe them off / play catch up.

It was exactly like that for Windows on ARM.

In other words, regardless of whether you like/hate Apple, if the Vision Pro does not success, then there probably won’t be any further investment in the space from MS either.

The 20 mins countdown in game was actually 20 mins irl. This episode is a pacing masterpiece.

Damn it. The UK is not in the EU. 😂

Yes. And, I bet this the ban would not be resumed until next version comes out.

Yeah, true… But, this case is not the best example of that, since Apple is getting punished quite serversly here. And, the fact they there was any punishment / lawsuit at all make the US looks like the fairer place to be. The Chinese big brothers would just swept it under rugs in favour of the bigger company from the get go.

This is the second times Apple got caught red-handed for stealing, and there is no doubt there were many more cases where they got away with it.

It must be an IOS / iPadOS thing then.

More specifically, I am on an iPad.

It is neat to see that materials in the same polymer family can have such a large difference in properties.

When though?

Wait, how are they going to finish the story with just 2 episodes?!

Technologically, Window is great. There is no denying that, and if anything some the dated (+ insecure) things on it is the result of its own success, i.e. the app installation and management process, as it is hard to convince billions of people to do anything different.

On the other hand, the management of the company is the biggest problem with everything in and around Window. First, there is no single business model; MS sells you a 1 time licence for the OS itself, but then constantly try to harvest and sell your data (with ads everywhere in Windows 11), and if you want to do any office work then you have to pay a subscription for MS 365. Last but not least, they keep breaking things every few updates, i.e. I actually failed one of my university course because OneDrive decided that my report don’t need to exist after an update (in 2018).

This is what SAO should have been.

Love it.
