This time around there are hardware requirements. Corporations equipment is not usually the latest hardware, and windows 11 is pushing customers to buy new hardware.

I suppose for many corporations upgrading to windows 11 would also mean upgrading the computer, which is an increase cost.

I can't wait for massive security problems on corporations once they shut down W10 support and those corporation considering if keeping with windows is woth the risk and the cost anymore.

Genuine question.

How is been running for almost 20 years, most of them with very few ads?

I doubt they had been just sinking money for the kind of their hearts.

I do not know how much it cost to run a service like YouTube. Or how much money they make by ads or other ways. But they have been running for long enough to be a successful business.

And it's just the latest few years when they are pushing these aggressive techniques.

Finally I don't need my computer for working, they provided us with company laptops, so I don't need to worry about compatibility and windows only programs anymore.

So you know what I'm going to do once windows 10 reaches eol.

For my it will certainly be the year of desktop linux.

I really wish we had a service like this on Europe.

I know they ship to Europe. But shipping costs are prohibitive for small buys.

"We have the technology to revive him."

Reason number #99 to make the switch to linux.

NMS development is the best redemption arc story in a long time.

The laughing comes when you are so used to vim that you begin using :q in other programs and wonder why doesn't it exit.

Everytime I want a distro that just works I just roll with Linux Mint.

Being one of the most popular distro if something goes wrong is really easy to find how to fix it .

I had the amazing luck of being introduced to linux at such a young age that i don't remember the distro. I just remember the penguin.

But the first time I try linux for myself it was mint, of course.

Sad that antipiracy laws are in place.

But understandable that lemmy.world protect themselves against those unfair laws.

The sailing will continue, but, as always, we should be wary of the "navy" and sail with precaution.
