Windows 10 Anniversary Update To Roll Out On August 2
Windows 10's first major update -- dubbed Anniversary Update -- will be released to users on August 2, according to a blog post published by Microsoft (Archive link). The company presumably posted the blog post ahead of the original publication plans, and as a result, quickly pulled the story. Windows 10 Anniversary Update will bring with it a number of major changes including extensions to Edge, and improvements to Cortana and Hello biometric feature. It will also mark the end of the one-year free Windows 10 update offer for Windows 7 and Windows 8.x users.
When ISIL detonated bombs in the Brussels airport, Slashdot posted a story within a few hours. The same thing happened in Istanbul and Slashdot still hasn't posted a story. If a white country in western or central Europe gets attacked, Slashdot is all over it. When it happens to Muslims and people of color, Slashdot doesn't care. It's damn bigoted, for sure. And to those of you who have replied to this comment on a prior story to say that Muslims committing acts of violence against other Muslims is normal, that is also bigoted. Muslims have as much right to live in peace and safety as anyone else in the world.
No, but repeating your false pro-Linux propaganda over and over won't make it true, either.
Which part is false: the part about the spyware (which even Microsoft admits is true, albeit in an indirect way, because they've documented that you cannot turn off any of the surveillance without the Enterprise edition), the part that Windows has malware and Linux does not, or the part that it is my advocacy that people should boycott Windows and use Linux instead?
A year later and Windows 10 is still buggy as shit
You either don't use it, don't know how to update your drivers or have hardware as old as Windows XP. If my grand parents, uncles and ants can install and use the OS successfully, I have to assume you either fall in the minority of users who had a bad experiences or you are less skilled with technology than the baby boomers I spoke off.
At the end of the day I believe in numbers and the numbers are showing 350 million devices running Windows 10 and according to surveys, Windows 10 has a majority of satisfied users.
