As Windows 10 end of life approaches, analysts are concerned that millions of devices will be scrapped due to incompatibility
Analysts have warned Windows 10 end of life plans could spark a global torrent of e-waste, with millions of devices expected to be scrapped in the coming years.
Research from Canalys shows that up to 240 million PCs globally could be terminated as a result of the shift over to Windows 11, raising critical questions about device refreshes and the responsibility of vendors to extend life cycles.
I’m called the vast majority. I can’t use my software on wine because it’s not supported by my vendors. It’s nice that you use things, but try working in architecture, civil engineering and construction and let me know how that works for you.
Let me be even more condescending - I use things I need to do my work. I don’t jerk off to linux or windows. If there was an option to move to mac I would do it. That’s using a thing like normal person, you use thing get money
I guess most of the world is stuck jerking off to oss instead of working whatever their professions are. Anyway, we get windows 10 support until 2028 I guess? So nobody cares about all of this shit anyway. Oh, and for the dudes with the idea of sending western used crap to poor kids… wow
I don’t know, I keep replying to things. It’s about linux not being this magical solution and everybody in the world stupid for not using it? It’s about people not being able to drop their shit and move their work where it can’t be moved, to an os that’s radically different?

This is a hilarious take considering you’re using Lemmy right now
Lemmy works, you just open a browser. I don’t see how it compares?

The point is that we need things that work to keep working. Not pass the shit to the poors, keep using what works

Wow, I didn’t know poor children were allowed to be civil engineers, that’s so progressive! /s
I disagree, the vast majority just need a browser, your use case may be quite common, but definitely not the majority.
