I’d have thought it would have yellowed more than that, did you have to treat it to make it look so good?

They’re constantly expanding the Active Directory schema and adding a lot of cool new features to Active Directory

you mean by letting it rot and become a security nightmare while trying to force everyone to move over to azureAD/entraID?

whatever the new architecture ends up being, at some point we will see x86 relegated to a daughter board in the machine while we transition, or x86 will live in a datacenter and you’ll buy time on a “cloud pc” like what microsoft will already sell you in azure

Microsoft is a cloud provider these days, Windows doesn’t make enough money, that’s why they are desperate to monetise already paying customers.

Azure/entra or whatever the fuck they call it this week is where the real money comes from

Oh yeah, Shit the photo was cropped how I viewed, I was optimistic that the under bed area was a work area or desk or something

Check out Distrobox or Toolbox

It looks like they will add a subscription edition, doesn’t necessarily mean current editions will go away. If they don’t offer free upgrade again, for a lot of people they will need to decide to either buy a full license or roll a subscription.

There is not a lot known here tho, will Windows be part of the existing 365 subscription? Will OEMs offer a full license any more? Or will it be a trial before adding a sub or license.

No one knows

Year of the Linux desktop for most users is always n+1

Good talk on the subject Benno is very engaging

without hashtags, I cant discover anything on bluesky, its made discoverability so much harder than mastodon imho

the money is drying up, gotta find new ways to monetise

Yes… Microsoft hearts Linux… When it runs in azure selling CPU cycles or maybe WSL

Totally not robots! Am I right fellow HUMANS!

how will I read the instructions a vendor sent me for a windows server that is a word doc because who knows? Oh no… Anyway

Really wish davinci had a flatpak or appimage
