    In my opinion if we would see significant improves Microsoft would have pointed that out at the keynote. Since they didn't the safe bet is to assume it will roughly stay the same. We will see.

    My dad still uses an iPhone 8 and my mother has still an iPhone 5S as her private phone . So yes, they are some people out there in the wild that do.

    Worst change so far. At least the cheerful blue could cheer you up a bit over the software demise of your system.

    Wouldn't that be problematic longterm for AMD if they aren't able to get bleeding edge manufacturing? Doesn't sound like something you want to have happen.

    If it is a shit free to play game whatever, don't care. If it is a paid game I will avoid it like the plague.

    I don't know about Switzerland specifically, but a lot of civil law countries also have "Judge law" especially in the civil law space. There is just no way to avoid it, because no legislator is capable or willing to keep everything updated. The difference is that in common law countries this "power" is formally integrated into the system.

    When I press Alt +TAB on W10 21H1 it also doesn't show the desktop. Don't know if you could change it in settings though.

    It's complicated. Formally the decisions by the higher courts are not binding. The German constitution clearly states that the deciding judge is indepent and only bound by the law. That means that on paper whatever decision had been made in the past don't matter and the judge can freely disregard them. However since that isn't practical (the higher court would just anull your decision anyways unless they for some reason changed their minds) in the vast majority of cases you just follow the precedent.

    I mean in practice it's never that bad since you have had smart people going through that stuff and cataloging it. So you never truly start at zero. Otherwise it would indeed just be madness.

    Highly unlikely. However this law is not going to give Windows Phone owners any hope I am afraid

    There's a big difference between being officially supported and being able to run the OS. Worst case scenario you are stuck on W10 and get support until 2025. I don't see how this is a huge deal either way.
  12. NeuesTestament
    This was passed, so I guess we will see now whether it will make a difference

    Am I one of the few people that actually doesn't hate the new UI? I don't think it looks bad at all. Android apps on Windows also sounds very useful provided it actually works.

    I never understood why it was okay for Apple to lockdown their mobile platform completely. If that were done by 1990 Microsoft they would have been fucked. I guess Apple has the better lobbyist.

    We should also keep in mind that from the phrasing of the law, it wouldn't necessairly require a full OS update. The thing is a lot of Android phones run fine even with older versions of the OS, so apart from security updates the impact itself might be indeed low.
  16. NeuesTestament
    Going by the phrasing I doubt this law would make a big difference for update support in the Android world (iOS has long enough update support anyways). It will likely be tied to the price of the product and since the more premium devices already get longer updates, I think it will only affect budget phones that get none or just one OS update. That's at least what I am suspecting.
  17. NeuesTestament
    It does specify what these updates need to do. Just read the draft in the first post.

    Doesn't seem to be an unreasonable amount considiring it's a country of 65 million people and that would result in them moving quite a lot of inventory.

    As far as I am concerned this might give me 2 more years using my RX570. That's nice I guess.

    I don't know why YouTube asked me for my age verification, in my bio it cleary states I was born in 1871. I am not that good at math, but I think that means I am above 18 years old.

    I hope this is accurate. The last thing we want is another iteration of the pre Ryzen era where CPU technology mostly stalled out.

    In a couple of decades we will be the old folks sitting by the fire and telling our grandchildren that there used to be a time where not everything was funded by Ads
  23. NeuesTestament
    I actually disagree with that. The "supporting" stuff is just marketing to sell more products. That's what companies do. While you can obvioulsy mock them for it, I don't think it is an unreasonable thing to do for a company.
  24. NeuesTestament
    Yes, I am sure. There will be no extreme shortage over several years. Just not going to happen. And I am very doubtful cloud streaming will retain those customers since it is just not that good.
  25. NeuesTestament
    The shortage will be solved by 2022 though. And then the question is whether streaming services are good enough for people not to switch back to classic hardware. I am not sure that is the case.
