zero moats for these fuckers as it should be.

Definitely not the same OS as Desktop windows 10. It might run all the same apps, however.

Anyone with a cursory knowledge of warren knows her lengthy history with advocating for consumer rights. I mean, you seem to be trolling and engaging in bad faith. A look at a Wiki…

Last time you used a service backed by a service run likely by oracle? Multitudes of times this week.

I’m gonna trust the multitudes if studies than someone telling the rest of his peers to be better.

What about a Goto within a switch statement that's within another switch statement in a function that's 3000 lines long?

Win+Tab opens up an overlay that allows you add a desktop as well.

Additionally, this was the biggest selling point of Windows Phone. It died, and so did the Security/privacy mindset.

Most of the initiatives Satya has gotten credit for were started under Ballmer. Some of the worst moves I've seen regarding current MSFT internal culture were direct results of Sat…

Starcraft on my dial-up!

Correct. I live in Renton, which is very far and terrible drive to redmond 6:15-10 am and from redmond 2pm-6:30pm. They might have a marketing area, but I haven't seen it in the do…

Agreed. I wish I could have spent more time with my parents when they were younger. At least they were able to retire early and we're making up for it in adventures nowadays.
