Windows isn't bad enough
This one sentence is probably the best answer to the question "Why has linux not taken over yet?".

he's correct.
Also the most important reason as to why no one is using Linux:
Windows isn't bad enough. In most cases, it works well enough that no one even considers moving to a different OS. As long as I can run my games and browse the internet, why would I choose Linux?Also people just learned to deal with Windows problems.
If you switch to Linux you will run into different problems you may not know how to deal with because you don't even know what's causing them.
From my experience those are simple issues you can fix in 5min if you know exactly what's causing it or spend whole day tinkering because you don't even know where to start.

AMD has been quietly funding projects over the years, in an effort to get CUDA-based code running atop HIP/ROCm with as little developer intervention as possible. One of the more recent projects was ZLUDA:

As a Stable Diffusion user who pretty much has to rule out AMD GPUs for my next upgrade due to lacking CUDA (and Linux know-how, long story), really hope this is the major breakthrough in making AMD GPUs suck less in AI/machine learning. (And considering AMD again for GPU upgrades)
Better get to work on this open-source'd code!

We'll see if Apple and Google actually support Right to Repair. Something tells me they'll find a way to make any new implementations of it less effective than originally intended...

I've bought the last few iterations of the Patriot Rage series USB sticks.
Been very happy with them.

I feel as though I'm missing something...
What actual (technical/physical) problems would something like the HP Z rackmount workstation solve? When compared to a 2U or 4U server, the 1U Z workstations seem lacking If I were to provision high-performance VMs instead, I think I'd be able to achieve most of the capabilities of the Z workstation.
If I use a DL580 from the same CPU generation for comparison, what am I missing? Have enterprise hypervisors really fallen this far behind, in terms of supported workloads and features exposed to end users?
Or is this more about software licensing/seating issues, where vendors want to charge by socket/CPU/core count (on the physical host)? Just trying to wrap my head around this...

Remember this status update? Well, there's a "fix" for it now...
But Windows Update won't be able to automatically detect that it's been applied. So, there's a bit more work to do after applying the manual fix.
The important details are described in the article.
