You choice of language already has a great impact on uniqueness. You can't (practically) become less unique than browser wanting stuff in English.
Resolution? Might be really bad, if say you use a smartphone with 20.5:9 aspect ratio or something. Speaking of: Performance is also a factor. If your device uses a rare SoC with measurably different speed than others, that's some uniqueness right there.
Now, you (presumably) have very strict privacy settings. That alone makes you more unique, because who really cares, right? And for example blocking region specific ads can be really, really bad in terms of uniqueness.
EFF's website explains a bit about what they use. Refer to that to get a better idea about what makes you unique.
EU demands are the easy part. It's rather obvious what they would be. Something along the lines of: 'The UK can rejoin at any time, but without all the special treatment it has been receiving.'
Try to convince the people that's good. Will another referendum still be in favour of rejoining, if you have to accept the Euro, new immigration laws, maybe the metric system and other standards?
I don't hate Windows for work. On the clock, I am balls deep in their ecosystem and I can't say that it's not working. However, that's probably because I get it mostly set-up by IT!
Casual reminder that on Windows, it's the norm to go fetch packages from the fucking internet using a web browser and give them root access to your system, including drivers...
A lot of settings are still scattered as well, with stuff randomly hidden away, completely
unconfigurable or named so it's not at all clear what it even does.
For everyday stuff like browsing, I totally do not see why people would want to use Windows.
If it wasn't for (some) ((multiplayer)) games and other Windows-only software, I wouldn't recommend this OS to anyone at this point.
You know, the answer to captions like that is to 99.9%:
Yes*
*Under laboratory conditions and for a very specific use case / a whole lot of money, once.
The reality is that billions are poured into developing faster computers and change is happening gradually, because low-hanging fruits are gathered even before they are ripe.
I think overall they are not better or worse than other tech giants. They try to be the platform for blank and thus to push competitors out of the marked, or lock it down so they can't enter. They try to extract as much money from their customers as they can, even if it makes the user experience worse. They push the boundaries of what the can legally do. They charge you, but you don't own anything.
What really grinds my gears is how they try to force stuff on me that I don't fucking want. I feel like they are completely different in that regard than for example Google. I use Google Maps because I want to. I don't use Chrome because I don't want to. It's that easy. They don't ask me to reconsider, they don't make it super complicated to switch, nothing. I can disable any Google App and forget about it.
To stick with the Google comparison, I also feel like Google informs me better and gives me more control regarding my data. This feels much more hidden on convoluted in MS products in general. For example I had no idea Office is basically spyware before reading about it elsewhere. In Google-land, they seem much more upfront about what they use and what I can opt out from (or in to).
You know, comparing people to God is basically blasphemy already. Not that I trust people who genuinely support Trump to understand anything about their own religion - or anything really.
I wonder what's the strategy here. If I had to guess I'd say he wants to see them fail miserably, so they lose support as quickly as they got it. I'm not sure that's a good idea tho.
I have to, for work - which is why I am happy whenever they do stuff right. That said, there is also a lot of schadenfreude whenever they think something along the lines of "let's tell people we will screenshot everything".
