  • Graduating and marriage at 21 is crazy

    Normal graduation is around 21 to 23, assuming you went immediately from high school to college (at least in the states)

    So that means they basically got married during college, which sounds crazy to me, and somehow can afford a house at less than a year’s worth of a normal job schedule, assuming they started right when they graduated.






  • Not true. Look at how they handled their anti-gambling lawsuit. They essentially did away with cases and keys, and now you can “open a terminal”. You aren’t gambling according to steam anymore, since you can decline the offer, but because this decline accept mechanic is baked into a dynamic pricing, you are now required to pay steam an average of 1700 usd for a pair of digital gloves, if you even get the offer.

    They got rid of “gambling” for something much worse





  • The thing is that there are real measurements of the market share of windows dropping. The only reason why adoption of w11 overtook w10 user size is because they made w10 end of life (although there are still ways around)

    Unfortunately, some business idiot mathed up that losing users is fine as long as the others get forced onto w11

    Windows could have done so much differently. More seamless integration with xbox and cross platform for gaming. Different, easily swappable profiles (windows) for different tasks (basically overhauling desktops, like for art, dev work, etc). Optimizing microsofts enterprise software suite without all the bloat. Not deprecating the idea of android support.

    But like all big tech companies, they only see money now
