how would we be?
i'm gonna list a few things:
edit:
i am not surprised
Global warming is kind of a big one to not list...
No no no, our pocket computers becoming too much like another company's pocket computers definitely is a bigger issue! Get your priorities straight!
thats just part of a general trend of everything we care about enshittifying.
i dont blame them, i used to love tech and now i despise most of it.
you're right, i did forget that one.
don't forget all the layoffs happening despite already being overworked, understaffed, and bombarded with RTO propaganda
I promise that people who are "not ok" are literally not even thinking about how Windows is getting worse. I'm a sysadmin and if windows was perfect my life would still be equal levels of shit, it's such a non issue that I'm amused you brought it up
computers are a big part of my life, i guess my priorities are just set differently.
i definetely consider it a factor in my mental health.
I literally maintain computers for a living and it's quite low on my list of things that make me sad, yeah way different priorities I guess
It's the factor that's easiest to do something about, though. Just switch to Linux.
I'm a server admin, look after hundreds of redhat servers and windows servers. So I can't just delete windows from my life. Some reason I've just become completely indifferent to how shitty windows is
not very easy if you play multiplayer games, do sim racing, or play VR games.
Fusion360 is finnicky, and yes i have tried using freecad.
just not that viable for my use case yet.
You forgot "on track for a 10c rise by the end of the century"
And social media completely destroyed the fabric of society
Well damn, Windows gets invasive and I am DONE
Welcome to Linux. Pick a flavor.
Or all the flavors.
Yeah, I was joking. I have used Linux as my primary desktop since 1999… I didn’t trust Windows XP.
I grew up on red hat…. I remember XP being the weird thing with the funny buttons I used for games.
Holy first world problems, batman!
