At the same time more people have never been more ready to move on from windows, I don’t want A.I. jammed into every nook and crany just the sake of raising stock prices. I want to use A.I. When I want and not have it constantly pushed in my face.
That might be true, but judging from desktop OS market share, what the competition is doing, sucks more.
MacOS is gaining ground, but because their hardware is legitimately superior. I imagine commodity laptops to be a dying breed in a few more years.
Gaming on a windows PC is the last bastion that macs tend not to compete in at all, and on that front there's SteamOS.
Microsoft signed their own OS death warrant when they switched from being backward-compatibility oriented way back in the Vista days. It might take another 2 decades for it all to play out, but from what i can see, it's one straight road down to obsoletion.
I still believe that was the peak of their UX.
I think you need to get out of tech if you think every large enterprise runs on mac
At the same time I find categories like “god” and “evil” difficult when used in the context of corporates.
Maybe Apple can be described as more honest.
They sell you extremely expensive hardware so that they don’t need your data to be monetized.
I think that’s a fair deal.
But it will have consequences.
That being said, I would hate an always on AI always watching my actions and phoning back home to Microsoft.
I haven't felt the need to use Windows for years now thanks to this.
It's not exactly there yet (especially that you need some technical knowledge to troubleshoot stuff). But I am getting similar performance playing games on Linux that I would be getting on Windows.
