  1. This is what Nadella wants on The End of the Desktop? (computerworld.com) · · Score: -1

    Cloud is the only thing Nadella the quitter can do so of course windows is heading to the cloud.

    Yeah mint is great for beginners but also great for advanced users, people sometimes complain that it's too dumbed down but an advanced user can set it up the way they like.

    Mint is good for beginners and people moving from windows because a lot of common software is already installed, it also has more visual cues than the standard debian/ubuntu which also helps windows users. Linux mint is more important now than ever before, with support for windows 7 coming to an end soon, and no realistic upgrade for windows 7 users available from Microsoft, linux mint is the next logical choice.

    And that's the beauty of linux, you prefer Cinnamon, others prefer KDE(including myself), you're able to use what you prefer but with windows you're forced to use what microsoft thinks you should be using.

    I hated Gimp at first, but after getting used to it I'll never use anything else.

    Obviously you've never used linux.

  8. This is why you shouldn't use the cloud for anything, you just can't trust it at all, if government can't even keep their own crap locked down then what priority do you think the consumer has? Reject the cloud, it's just not worth it.

    Meanwhile, youtube continues to allow violent leftist hate groups like ANTIFA and BLM on their services, unchecked and unchallenged.

    Realistically it will be 5 to 7 percent if history is any indicator.

  13. Re:End of personal computing on Microsoft Is Readying a Consumer Microsoft 365 Subscription Bundle (zdnet.com) · · Score: 2

    Take a look at the state of windows software today and compare it to 10 years ago, are the consumers better off today than they were back then?

  14. Re:Wrong, opposes regulation - not net neutrality on Trump's Pick To Be the Next Attorney General Has Opposed Net Neutrality Rules For Years (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You should really educate yourself about net neutrality, the reason it exists is to keep the ISP's in line, without it, the ISP's can literally do whatever they want to your service, charge whatever rates they want, fast lanes, exclusivity, spying, shove their ideology on you, block you from viewing sites etc etc. Government regulations were there to prevent that kind of bs from happening, without those regulations we're at the complete mercy of the ISP.

    Agreed, they can come up with a chip that blows the owner and lasts 9000 hours on one charge and it would still be a pile of shit because of windows 10.

    1. There are conspicuous mentions of Trump and his family. 2. Putin’s spokesman appears to have helped cover this up. 3. This ties the Trump family’s efforts to the Russian government. 4) The deal apparently died the day The Post broke a story about Russian hacking.

    Such a douche.

  21. Yeah because creating a shared folder is such a hassle, right? All that vm "overhead" gives you a de and the full environment to work in, much better than hoping the cross platform development guidelines will account for variations from one version of the de to the next.

  22. I wouldn't trust any developer that uses this half-baked Microsoft/Linux without a de monstrosity. If a developer is willing to place their trust in windows 10, with its built in keylogging and other various spying mechanisms, then I would question the privacy choices of their own products.

  23. They're well into the "extend" phase, and just look at all the Microsoft shills in the various forums denying it and attacking anyone who dares to point out the obvious.

    Funny thing is if Microsoft simply listened to their customers then windows would also be their money maker, but they're putting pride and arrogance ahead of that because they can afford to.
