"In January, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told analysts that the company would make sales execution changes after the company delivered slower growth than expected in Azure cloud revenue that wasn’t tied to artificial intelligence. Performance in AI cloud growth outdid internal projections."
Translation: "No one gives a shit about Azure, except for the people we could hoodwink with AI."
Azure and AWS both have a pretty solid chunk of the data center market.
Like 1/4 and 1/3 respectively.
Can't wait for windows updates to get even buggier ! Seriously though I'm building an all amd gaming rig in november and never using windows again.
How is gaming on linux? I really don't want to "upgrade" to windows 11 but I also barely have any time to game in the first place let alone fool around with settings and drivers for several hours every time I install a new game or update and existing one.
I switched Windows our with Linux Zorin some weeks ago. Everything works perfect as well, I can play all the games I have on Steam
The only teal obstacle is some anti cheat software, mostly kernel level anti cheat.
So if you want to play shooters like fortnite, pubg, valorant or rainbow six siege, you are out of luck.
Otherwise, you probably won't have any issues.
Also mod support is hit or miss
Lutris and steam do most of the heavy lifting for you. Driver side should work with no fiddling required for AMD atleast, somebody with Nvidia can chime in if it's the same for them too.
You may need to add a couple Launch options for certain games on steam here and there or swap proton versions.
Games do sometimes break but then you wait a day or two and it's usually fixed.
Question is what games are you playing? If it's CoD and Fortnite I'd say stick with Windows, they won't work.
Thanks to Valve, Linux compatibility has become industry standard.
I work in games. Its fucking incredible looking at my linkedin. I would say about 80% of my coworkers throughout my career are out of work right now. I started my own company because I was sick of it.

I'm genuinely curious to hear how you've found it easier to land clients than employers. In my experience, you really need a good in with a bigger firm if you're going to have any hope of launching a business. Unless your old employer is jettisoning their contracts as quickly as they jettison their staff, that can be tricky.
I want to ask what company so I can see what you're making but I imagine you don't want to doxx yourself, especially not with that username lol
I hope they lay off the world of warcraft class balancing team those fuckers have no idea what they are doing
Probably working on windows 13 on a direct Elon special implant with autodoxing and auto migrant deport reporting of brown people.
