I wish 2025 was the last time I will have had to strategically vote, but it won't be.

MS did a shift like that already. The shift from MS-DOS to NT was transparent to the vast majority of people to the point that most people didn't realize they were two different OSes.

I don't see why they couldn't do it again. NTVDM was similar in concept to what wine does. Imagine if MS actively contributed to wine, or a wine like project.

I wouldn't. You could catch something from them.

I was warned for posting threats when I said Smith should stand on her head to get some blood to her brain.

I received a 3 day ban for calling for violence when I said Vance will be President of the US after an arterial blockage takes out Trump.

Because you are not the customer. It doesn't score for you, it scores the potential a lender can make money off of you.

Let's give them credit. Maybe their first experience was installing Gentoo, which is when Windows is better.

100%

I took some code and scripts I wrote and passed them through AI. A lot of it was tightened up, and even better, it added comments and turned some things into functions so they were reusable.

I parsed everything it did to sanity check it. Really, use it like a junior developer. "Hey helper, write me a piece of code that does X." You always double check the junior.

I think you're on to something. I have a 10 year old laptop with linux, 4 cores, 8gb of ram, a mechanical drive, and a win10 vm on it and it runs fine for it's purpose.

You speak too highly of him.

My wife and I bought to get on the ladder. You can never save enough, at some point you need to hop in.

We're 2 years in on a house that doesn't suit our needs because if we didn't buy, we would keep getting priced out. If prices drop, we'll be stuck in this house. It wasn't an investment, it was building equity for when it's time to move.

At least we have a house, so many others aren't as lucky.
