this is not something people outside the us reflect on. it’s a common trope that us-americans go to europe to find their roots and whatever and nobody understands what they even mean by that.

i linked the junket in question.

everything after w2k is NT. by kernel version, its

• NT4: 4.0
• 2000: 5.0
• XP: 5.1
• Vista: 6.0
• 7: 6.1
• 8: 6.2
• 8.1: 6.3
• 10: 10.0

haven’t checked 11 but i bet you they bumped the major again.

you can melt your jaw off with’em, if that’s your jam

arrested development

it was from a press conference where they said they were done with version numbers and that windows 10 would basically be supported forever. that’s not mischaracterisation

that is exactly what hey said.

whoof. i still don’t understand what makes an npu different from a vector coprocessor (except the proprietary api) so if they’re smart about it they’ll fall back to gpu use. they will not be smart about it.

vista was great on compliant hardware. w11 is very much not.

god i hope they fuck this up

wasn’t advertised as such though

remember when windows 10 was supposed to be the last os they ever made

try to disprove me.

cool, then neither is my desktop pc. i get all my software on 5 1/4" floppies.

it is very interesting, but it’s also one of those topics that makes anything else in the conversation not matter.

also do note that i said nothing about thinking sensory inputs are illusory, just that belief is not required for things to exist.

surely if the universe has an infinite lifespan there could be an infinite number of humans? for whatever passes as a human at any given time. the two concepts may even overlap.

not that it matters for the day-to-day, anyway.
