Who isnt going to go along with it?
Gotta be like 90% of people have never installed an OS because Windows was already on their PC when they bought it.
To them, its part of buying a PC. They don't consider the OS a separate purchase.
If they make this move they're banking on people not noticing until after they've bought a shiny new PC. After that most people will suffer the cost because they already own the PC and its just "easier."
That's really well done! Love the photos.
I get that, but Windows/Powershell isn't case-sensitive, so you can type it all lowercase if you want (I do).
Linux on the other hand is case sensitive despite most GNU tools defaulting to all lower case. There's definitely a bunch of case-sensitive switches in Linux CLI applications.
There has been optional case-insensitive file system support in Linux for a few years now, though.
It feels like lemmy users are too shy because of reddit popularity.
I see you've never heard of the 90%/9%/1% rule of social media users.
90% are lurkers. 9% are intermittent posters. 1% are heavy use posters.
It's not that people are shy, it's that literally with a fraction of the userbase Reddit has, that 10% that actually makes posts is just a smaller number of people.
I would rag on Google here, but if you read this entire ~~mastadon~~ nitter thread, other people have already done a golden ass job of taking Google to task for this propaganda.
Nah, not dickish at all. None of us can know everything. I'd rather be informed that I'm wrong than continue walking around being wrong.

Google's rejection of web standards and attempts to put in their own standards is half of what breaks shit anyway.
I'm glad they're working with the G Workspace team, but Holy Hell, it's been clear for a long time that Google, the company, isn't a friend to Firefox, even if individual developers are.
They mainly pay for top search spot in Firefox as a bulwark against claims of monopolization.
Haven’t tried since but it’s a deal breaker for me. So I stay with Chrome.
"Google broke functionality in other browsers because of their near monopoly status, so I stick with their near monopoly because its easier."
I mean, I'm sure Google is real glad you've chosen their ~~browser~~ spyware.
True, but if your repetitive, boring task can be replaced by a well-put-together Excel spreadsheet or a few simple scripts, you're looking at replacing yourself at your own job.
I've definitely seen people replaced by the work-saving scripts they wrote. Corporate doesn't care about pesky things like "maintenance" or "security updates" or even "that command we used in the script is now deprecated." It works well enough now, and now they consider you "redundant."
Some folks keep doing it the repetitive boring way to keep their bosses from shitcanning them for creating something their bosses are absolutely too dimwitted to do themselves. It's never nice to do something that saves you effort and the response is your boss shitcanning you and then saying "I made this."
Anyone who is anyone has fancy driving gloves, cap, and goggles!
Oop can't forget the scarf!
I think you're missing their point.
Indy was always "it belongs in a museum" when its an intricate part of some foreign nations history. That museum always seemed to be British or US.
The point being they're just stealing their history back. A reverse Indy.
"It belongs to the culture it came from. Allow them to choose what to do with it. Perhaps they even have their own museums."
