I mean, it's supposed to be a dystopian world. You're not supposed to want the world they're giving you, hence the "punk" part. Too many people ignore that punk movements are meant to fight against an established system. That's what punk is. When you say something is solarpunk or steampunk you are implying a downside to the established order. If nobody is rebelling it's not punk.
Yeah, but the cables still have major standardization issues. It's almost impossible to reliably tell if a cable can be used for power and data or just power, leading to people either thinking a cable is broken or over-spending.
I'm at work so I can't do deep dive searching, and honestly I will probably forget about this by the time I get home, but there are other people I follow who report on this stuff, unfortunately only in podcast format, who have also talked to modders in person. All of them say mods are fine. Take that for what you will.
There are already people claiming this, but I have yet to see any actual proof of claim. Unfortunately the court of public opinion has already started to turn even without actual proof. Got to love a good witch hunt.
I think this is actually a good thing. In a perfect world exclusives wouldn't exist and you would buy things based on their own merits. Having to buy something you don't want because you fear missing out on a game is a horrible experience. In fact I stopped caring because I got so tired of possibly missing out on a game. It has worked out great for me this generation.
It doesn't help that cops are expected to do so much. Don't get me wrong, it's not an excuse to do fucked up things to people, but it is probably a contributing factor. Like mental health for being a police officer can't be good. This is part of the reason so many people want to defund the police; it isn't about giving them less money, it's about moving funding to programs that are more focused so police can focus on their job and not try to be a mental health counselor as well.
To be fair to Microsoft (I can't believe I actually typed that) it's not something they can just fix without splitting Windows into a consumer and business SKU that is significantly different from current Windows. Currently the only real difference is the amount of control the end user has over the platform, but the features are pretty much the same. To make a fully "modern" version you would basically have to build Windows from the ground up to eliminate all the cruft. There is no money for Microsoft in that. Better to focus on business and let the consumer complain.
I mean current version really doesn't mean anything because people aren't going to upgrade if the version they're using is fine. I submit that this is a perfect example of correlation != causation. I may have gotten the order wrong on the not equal symbology since I haven't used it in a while.
Also, are we talking Linux kernal versions? There are so many problems with this comparison.
In this scenario, solar energy is the establishment though.
