Nothing has changed. Microsoft has had this type of licensing in place for Enterprise before now. Adding a subscription to Home and Pro would be a major change. But if they threw it into O365 it would actually be a good change, just as long as they still a purchasable copy that doesn't have a recurring fee.
Why? Because you can't deal with the outcome of a democratic vote? Tell me honestly, do you actually want to replace democracy with something else? And if so, what?
A dictatorship of course. All of these super intelligent people know far better than anyone else. Get around that pesky voting thing and just let them have their way.
That's the biggest lose with Microsoft dropping their home server OS. It's still available in Windows Server, but it's several hundred dollars versus $100-150 for home server.
It provided automatic daily backups in a way that didn't have a user accessible mounted share. Restores were provided by a read-only network share that would become mounted, as well as a boot able USB key for full restores.
File history included with Windows 8 & 10 does give an automated time machine style backup system. But it backs up to a user writable network share or external drive.
Real world performance of SATA III is around 600MB/s. My several years old Samsung EVO4 hits 520MB/reads. There are even faster drives that do make out the full bandwidth provided by SATA III.
There are PCI-E SATA drives that were made to go over the SATA 3.0 bandwidth limitation. And there is also the SATA 3.2 spec that goes up to 16Gb/s.
Needing to swap in a second battery in the middle of the day isn't the issue. The problem is that batteries lose their capacity after a year or two. Being able to swap in a new battery and have the same battery life from when you first got the phone can put off that upgrade for another year or two. I can see why manufacturers don't want user replaceable batteries though.
I'm sure it had more to do with taxes than anything else. The European version of the PS2 came with a BASIC disk which was something completely different from the PS2 Linux kit.
This allowed them to sell it as a general purpose computer which had a lower import tax than a game console.
Yes, those drivers were top tier. I was able to score a Plextor that was rebranded as an IOMEGA drive for much cheaper than a normal Plextor cost. That drive was a tank and never gave me issues.
It includes all the bribes you have to pay for dumping of toxic waste into streams and rivers which is created during the manufacturing process. The bribes are much cheaper in China.
Is it really that bad is a new version comes out every three years, but each model still supports all of the older games and gets new games going forward for 6-8 years?
You could skip every other release and still play everything. This will also help PC games, as newer hardware will drive developers to actually support new graphic capabilities. Unlike in the PS3/360 generation which went on way to long and held the PC back.
Actually, it would be really cool if K-12 had taught piloting and surgery. I would have loved that.
You didn't have a frog in biology? It's not healing surgery, but it does teach some basics. With 3d printers the kids might be able to start making cyborg frogs.
Ya, then you just have the overhead of paying some service provider to calculate it for your small online shop you being in a few hundred a month on. Hopefully they will also collect and distribute the tax payments for you so don't need to deal with sending $0.03 to bumkiss nowhere when someone buys a $3 item from you.
Microsoft's Outlook for Android is also another option, and it's free.
I prefer its calendar to the default Google Calendar app. It was originally a 3rd party Calendar that Microsoft bought and merged it into Outlook. I think it was originally called Sunrise or something like that.

I'd be fine my phone leaking my location as long as the GPS didn't keep dropping signal every time I try using it for navigation.
As Enzo Ferrari said, "Aerodynamics are for people who can't build engines".
Office was, and still is available as a one time purchase. You're more than welcome to buy it outright and skip O365 if you want.
She never said it was her heart breaking. Just your's.

You have minute allowances? In the US the trend is unlimited minutes and unlimited text with some amount of data.
If you actually used all of the data you'd end up paying more with fi's 1cent/MB. 2GB is $40 with fi but $35 with Verizon.

Did you also need to update to play Bluray movies that were released after the update came out?
Yes, those drivers were top tier. I was able to score a Plextor that was rebranded as an IOMEGA drive for much cheaper than a normal Plextor cost. That drive was a tank and never gave me issues.
That was Fred Flintstone. Yogi said "Hey Boo Boo".

Could we stop for ice cream on the way back?
Looking at Vancouver and Toronto, I thought the Chinese were already buying up Canada even without the bottling.

That depends. Not if it was active radar. But for passive, just switching off the transponder would cause it to immediately drop off.
That could be intentional due to suicide. Or unintentional like some problem taking out the electrical systems.

They need to spread out like that. It's to have them available for any car chase that might pop up.
Why not a knuckle? It's much easier to use than needing to take your shoe off all the time.
