I get the feeling Microsoft often starts modernization projects and abandons them halfway through. That’s why we still have the modern and the classic control panel. Even their web apps have this problem - there is an old version of the Exchange administration panel and a new one. And it’s been like that for a decade.

They’re just piling new junk on top of old junk and it shows.

I’ll just block you here too.

Oh no, don’t threaten him with a good time.

The Steam machine would’ve been amazing if it was affordable. You can hardly blame Valve for the AI bubble and current RAM pricing though.

You’re trusting unsigned, reverse engineered, and amateur developed drivers in ring 0

Up until 2025 most of the software for controlling your periphery like mice and RGB controllers used a driver called WinRing0 which had been discontinued for years. Its author even actively discouraged people from using it, but due to convenience and cost cutting it was bundled with software left and right.

I rather trust a Linux kernel developer developing a WiFi driver than some shady manufacturer selling cheap mice and bundling it with closed-source software that never gets an update.

A bicycle will transport me in the same manner every time I use it. A calculator will always give me the correct result of 2+2.

What was your point about AI again?
