How can anyone upgrade to a new PC when there is no Ram or hard disks available? This is a crazy time to try to push that.

    I think this highlights Microsoft's inability to connect with its customers even more than the AI and shit.

    They really just do not give a shit about the consumer, at all.

    Its insane people put up with it on their own personal machines I get for work or whatever.

    Microsoft is absolutely fucking deranged just like that freak who’s leading them. Dealing with them as an enterprise customer is a fucking nightmare, their docs suck, their support, which you pay for btw, is adversarial just like their OS. I fucking hate Microsoft in my bones, so I love when I see them doing submental shit like this to themselves

    SharePoint is the bane of my existence. Sorry, I can't find the file you're looking for because all the files are saved in one folder and fuck you for expecting the filter function to work. I hope you remember the exact filename and enjoy scrolling for 5 minutes.

    The truth is that you and I are not their customer. The business to business sales are their primary concern, and many companies would be fine forking over a little extra cash for the "AI operating system".

    The average home user is an afterthought.

    Agreed. I think it has gotten worse over time. Operating systems for consumer PCs are a mature market and they don't really have commercial rivals. It's Mac, Windows, or Linux and most people never really consider Linux. So, they use Windows to push their other products and not so much as a product in itself.
