- Comment on Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS 1 week ago:
It’s honestly impressive how many unattractive “features” they’re apparently packing into this.
Unfortunately, these are the only bright sides to this new OS. Microsoft’s Copilot, the AI assistant the company has been aggressively injecting across the ecosystem, will now be a core part of the next Windows iteration rather than a supplementary feature.
11 is bad enough, but it seems like 12 will be infected with copilot at every level of the OS rather than just shoehorned into every single app.
These AI features won’t come cheaply, with Windows 12 set to debut a new hardware requirement just as its predecessor did with the TPM 2.0 requirement. This time around, a dedicated NPU would be required, a specialized processor designed to handle AI tasks.
Oh, great. Yet another new hardware requirement, this time for unwanted AI, in a marketplace with runaway hardware prices caused by AI. On the plus side, this will make it easier for most people to not switch.
Some features of Windows 11 might also be locked away behind a subscription model that are expected to be “advanced AI services”, but the core OS will be a one-time purchase only.
Ok, so not only are you charging money for the OS, you’re also taking away existing features and making people pay a subscription?
The modular aspect of the OS is Microsoft’s CorePC architecture project that they’ve been working on for years. It will redefine the Windows experience by allowing the addition and removal of components. This will help customise the OS for each build, whether it’s a lighter-weight system, a gaming-prioritized build, etc.
Can we remove copilot, the subscription model, advertisements, and spyware?

- Comment on It would be so interesting if humans didn't have a gender assigned at birth and could choose who they want to be. 1 week ago:
“CIS” people (whatever that means, I genuinely don’t know, I don’t keep up with ideological abbreviations)
Cis is a prefix, not an abbreviation. It is the opposite of trans. In this context it’s obviously referencing cisgender va transgender.
Cis means “this side,” trans means “the reverse side.” You see them used in chemistry, for example cis/trans-isomerism. Even Julius Caesar’s writings reference cisalpine Gaul and transalpine Gaul (the part of Gaul on this side of the Alps vs the part on the other side of the Alps)
Hope that helps you “keep up” with the English language.

I saw enough headlines between 2016-2020 to learn not to trust these copium posts. No, his supporters aren’t turning on him. No, other Republicans are not secretly plotting to oust him. No, he’s still not going to suffer consequences.

“You’re absolutely right! Shaking the baby is incredibly dangerous and I told you to do it anyway! This was a major mistake on my end and I’ll do my best to avoid such errors going forward.
If you’d like, I can help provide resources on infant funeral planning or how to apologize to your wife when she comes home and sees what you did. Just let me know what you’d like hear more about.”

- Comment on Elon Musk, doing Elon Musk things. 2 months ago:
You can take any person who’s had sufficient coverage and find an unfortunately timed picture of them waving that kinda looks like a Nazi salute. That’s not what happened with Elon, though. The people falsely equivocating those pictures with Elon’s enthused Nazi salute know it, too.
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Remember when he was straight up having a stroke on live television back on 9/11 and nobody ever fucking talked about it? Biden’s well documented stutter that he’s had his whole life would pop up and every single media outlet questioned his mental faculties for the next week. Trump is in public looking like this and it’s just crickets:

If you were a cop and you weren’t a racist piece of shit who covers for other cops after they shoot people, you’d end up being discharged for some bullshit reason and then you’d be a mall security guard or something. Can’t have any apples in the bunch that refuse to rot.
