This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Maybe stick to AM4 and processors for now that don't have AI feature? I have AM4, it works perfect and I haven't had to upgrade yet. I think there would be a way to disable all of the AI, like with app OOSU10 or tron. Second option would be to install Linux OS and use Wine for any Windows app and for anything buggy that wouldn't work well, using a vm for it.
Speaking of, there's VPNs or you could use PIHole to block Microsoft's telemetry and AI ips.

That game of cat and mouse would get very tiresome very fast and Microsoft would win in the end. Better to hope for new vwrsions of Tiny11 or one of those debloater scripts to disable the AI features entirely, but they'd probably be reinstated with every update. Maybe use a hook to re-run the script after every update? I don't even know if that's possible in Windows.
Thankfully I've been Microsoft free for years now so I don't have to know. Linux is a blessing.
I wonder if no one is left at Microsoft that knows enough about the core systems to actually improve those... So the best they can do is throw more shit on top
I have a brilliant friend who works there. However, only projects that integrate AI are really getting approved.
Iam even more happy to be using Linux 😎
Yeah the ones who went that path now can be super happy about it. We have the best desktop in the world.
Shit like this is why whenever companies say they’re “customer focused” I say they’re full of shit.
No one wants this but M$ has so much investment tied into this that they need to make people want this.
There must be some unaccounted for survivorship bias in the data for the MS to get it this wrong. Not even about agenda just PR they are operating on bad assumptions which is just bad for business.
I wiped my Windows SSD after over half a year of not booting into it at all. I do not miss it, but I do greatly appreciate a larger /home partition spanning an entire 1 TB SSD (for reasons of buying at various times for projects that didn't need a lot of storage, I have 3 1 TB SSDs lol). Now to figure out how to enlarge the / partition with btrfs.
Good, I hope it keep self destruct for the foreseeable future, you're doing good Microsoft keep doing what you're doing.
Here’s the thing - the same thing that Microsoft is being roasted for saying they’re going to implement is the thing that Apple are being roasted for not having implemented yet. The difference is -rightly or wrongly- people trust Apple in a way that they simply don’t Microsoft.
Apple zealots trust apple. The rest of us don't give a rat's ass what Apple does.
And it'll work half good in English but be completely crap in any other language.
Maybe Windows must just lose a massive share of the market to break his enshittification circle.
