Edge is built on Chromium

Civilian bills increase while corporate discounts abound? Ya’ll need to fuck someone up with the 2A.

I’m more impressed that the same hardware ran so many versions of Windows.

if you’ve got a 10-year-old Apple laptop, it’s harder to use normally than a 10-year-old Windows laptop.

Also, don’t use the Apple store for software on your laptop. Use a reasonable package manager like homebrew that doesn’t have the problems you describe. Or go find a mirror that hosts old MacOS packages and install it yourself.

Agree with both and able to do so cause I’m an IT professional and wo ked on all 4 major OSes in my past.

However, having to use an external package manager undercuts the advertising that they’re just plug and play.

Ever update an app and then be told that you need to update MacOS cause the new version need the latest MacOS? So you try to update MacOS but can’t cause your MBP can’t run the latest version. That’s okay, let’s go back to the older version of the app. Oh wait, now you can’t cause that version is no longer in the Apple Store. So you can’t update the app, can’t update MacOS and you can’t reinstall the older app version, which you may have paid for.

Apple’s enshittification was baked-in and normalised a long time ago. The rate it gets worse is slower compared to Win 11 in 2025 but the MacOS level of enshittification is already pretty fucking high.

Great for you. The motherboard on my 2011 MBP died after 5 years and then again after 5 years after the replacing it the first time. Decided to junk it then cause even if I placed the mobo, couldn’t install the latest OS or the latest software.

Time for Nadella to take responsibility for these fuck ups and resign already.

Civilization? Nah just the collapse of one empire. The rest of the world goes on.

All they have to do is to make it good enough and cheap enough to commodotize the product which will flood the market and push the most advanced but expensive tech to the side.

I mean if every headline about massive breakthroughs was the full truth all our appliances would be powered by tiny nuclear power plants and we would fly around with our jetpack. Cancer would be but a distant memory and world hunger a non issue because vertical farms would be literally in every home.

I’m from the school of “capitalism stops progress when there’s not profit to be made”.

So all these things could have come true if someone didn’t stop them because they were going to lose money.

Good point. Have to dig up the GPO settings now.

This is a machine running Win11 Home. No domain to login to.

So it’s a botched update not a desigbed feature.

Infosys is a shitty boss that would contract for 2 resources but only assign 1 to do the work. That’s why he wants 80 hours per headcount.

This is why I’m somewhat happy that AI would render extinct companies like Infosys, Wipro, etc.

Anything is better than the Guardians Of Pedophiles

Wow, I didn’t realize Anal Butt Pirates had 2000+ volumes. I’ve fallen behind, no pun in ten did.

Just fucking do it. Nothing says you MUST be on it.

In my experience, arm64 is nowhere close to x64 with heavy multi processing/threading loads.
