00:00:00
Hello guys and gals. Me Mudahar. I know
00:00:03
there's going to be that one guy in the
00:00:04
comments. Blue polo analysis. Well, it's
00:00:07
pretty true. You know what I got the
00:00:09
best buy blue on? I'm about to crap all
00:00:11
over Microsoft like they're the nicest
00:00:14
street in existence. Ladies and
00:00:16
gentlemen, as you all know, Windows 10
00:00:18
is dying this year. I'm not shy about
00:00:20
making videos on this. I've actually
00:00:22
talked about this and I basically said
00:00:24
that, you know, Windows 10, all the
00:00:26
updates and the security stuff you're
00:00:27
getting. Well, that's basically going to
00:00:30
stop. Okay, Microsoft wants you to jump
00:00:32
all the way to Windows 11. Now, you
00:00:34
might be like, "But Muda, what if I
00:00:36
can't upgrade my computer because it
00:00:37
says it doesn't support it?" Well, tough
00:00:40
titt. Or you can use things like Rufus
00:00:42
and basically like uh cut out the parts
00:00:44
of Windows 11 like requirements that are
00:00:47
hampering you. But that's not to say
00:00:48
that kind of stuff is going to last
00:00:50
forever. Okay, let's just be completely
00:00:51
real now. I think it's kind of nonsense.
00:00:54
I really think like, you know, Windows
00:00:56
12 isn't even here. At least support
00:00:57
this. And uh you know what? Microsoft
00:00:59
kind of had to admit that uh you know,
00:01:01
they they're losing.
00:01:04
Microsoft has to admit that they're
00:01:06
actually losing. And uh you know, they
00:01:08
straight up just said, "Yeah, we're
00:01:10
we're gonna we're gonna at least give
00:01:12
you guys some actual updates for that
00:01:14
10." So, for instance, they released uh,
00:01:16
you know, this little follow-up just a
00:01:18
couple days ago, and I wanted to like
00:01:19
kind of cover it. So, here's what
00:01:21
happens when Windows 10 support dies.
00:01:25
Microsoft no longer provides any
00:01:27
security or feature updates or technical
00:01:29
support for any of those Windows 10
00:01:30
computers. So, while they're going to
00:01:32
continue to function, they're not going
00:01:34
to receive those regular security
00:01:36
updates. So, if you're a Windows 10
00:01:38
person and you're like, I just don't
00:01:39
want to go to 11. Okay. Uh, which again,
00:01:41
I don't really understand why not. if
00:01:43
you can upgrade like I upgraded to
00:01:45
Windows 11 as soon as it was like
00:01:46
officially available inside my VM and on
00:01:49
that computer back there and generally
00:01:52
speaking like it's uh it's an okay
00:01:55
experience like it's good for Windows
00:01:57
right but uh yeah uh if you want to
00:01:59
protect yourself from all the nasty
00:02:01
viruses that exist all over you're going
00:02:03
to you're going to probably want to
00:02:04
upgrade okay now of course any company
00:02:07
or organization that operates Windows 10
00:02:10
may find it challenging to maintain
00:02:13
regular regulatory compliance with
00:02:15
unsupported software, which actually is
00:02:18
a pretty important part towards the
00:02:19
latter half of this video, but I want to
00:02:21
kind of just like run through this. So,
00:02:23
applications running on Win10 may not be
00:02:24
supported. Those 365 apps, they'll
00:02:28
continue to receive any of those
00:02:29
security updates until October 10, 2028,
00:02:34
which again shows you that obviously for
00:02:36
a lot of people that aren't upgrading
00:02:38
and have been subscribers, Microsoft's a
00:02:41
little worried, right? like if all of a
00:02:42
sudden, you know, those th those
00:02:44
subscription services aren't able to use
00:02:46
their product, which I suspect a lot of
00:02:48
them are, they're going to start losing.
00:02:50
So, this is why they're like giving
00:02:51
those people feature updates and
00:02:53
security updates until, of course, 2028.
00:02:55
And when that time comes, they're hoping
00:02:57
that hopefully these people have
00:02:59
switched over to 11 or maybe even
00:03:00
Windows 12 by that point, dude. You
00:03:02
never know. So, of course, Microsoft
00:03:04
will continue to provide security
00:03:08
intelligence updates for Windows
00:03:09
Defender Antivirus on Windows 10 through
00:03:12
October 2028. Now, you might be like,
00:03:14
doesn't that conflict with 0.1? And no,
00:03:17
it doesn't because in 0.1 they say like
00:03:19
regular security updates, yada yada
00:03:20
yada, but generally speaking, anytime
00:03:22
you install Windows, you have Windows
00:03:24
Defender. and they're going to give you
00:03:26
all of those updates till 2028 because I
00:03:29
very much doubt that Microsoft wants to
00:03:31
be in a situation where a whole bunch of
00:03:34
YouTubers, news people like are all
00:03:36
going to laugh at them when they find
00:03:38
out, "Holy [ __ ] guys, you're on Windows
00:03:40
10. Congratulations. You're not going to
00:03:41
get [ __ ] at end of life." Okay,
00:03:44
there's a reason why you can't connect
00:03:46
things like Windows XP to the internet
00:03:47
without any form of condoms on your
00:03:49
routers or your system. Because just by
00:03:52
connecting Windows XP or even older
00:03:54
versions of Windows right now, I made a
00:03:57
video on it. Plenty of other YouTubers
00:03:58
have made videos on it. Eric Parker made
00:04:00
a good video on it. He kind of broke the
00:04:02
news. Uh yeah, tons of like crazy botn
00:04:05
nets and hackers just look for Windows
00:04:06
systems at EOL and infect the [ __ ] out
00:04:09
of them and put them into botn nets and
00:04:11
use them for nefarious purposes, which
00:04:13
is something that could happen to even
00:04:15
Windows 10 or Windows 11 like 10 15
00:04:18
years later when it's EOL. You know,
00:04:21
some person with a really old computer
00:04:22
decides to connect it on the internet
00:04:24
and realizes, "Oh [ __ ] we're getting
00:04:27
taken advantage of." Now, uh, one of the
00:04:28
reasons why I guess sort of companies
00:04:31
kind of like got into how Microsoft lost
00:04:33
a little bit was also some so some
00:04:36
people are saying that Windows straight
00:04:38
up said that they're powering over a
00:04:40
billion monthly active devices. And you
00:04:43
might be like, why does that statement
00:04:45
really mean anything, Muda? Well,
00:04:46
according to some people who basically
00:04:48
cover Windows for a living, quietly
00:04:51
apparently implied that a lot of people
00:04:53
are actually abandoning Windows. Okay,
00:04:56
so they actually used to say that
00:04:58
Windows was running on 1.4 billion
00:05:00
devices. Now, the thing is for a lot of
00:05:03
these companies, and I'll just straight
00:05:04
up say it, that number is super
00:05:06
important to them. Okay? It's like it's
00:05:08
like the holy grail. All right? That is
00:05:10
like the biggest flex to all of their
00:05:12
competition. As long as any company can
00:05:14
say, "We support so- and so device. We
00:05:16
have so and so many users, it's the
00:05:18
ultimate dick swinging party to any of
00:05:20
these companies." So, I doubt that
00:05:22
Microsoft just like conveniently rounded
00:05:24
down. It's like talking about your dick
00:05:26
size, okay? You don't round down. If
00:05:28
anything, you round up if you can. So,
00:05:30
it's a it's a quiet wonder of like, is
00:05:33
Microsoft actually losing? But did they
00:05:35
lose like 400 million people? I'm going
00:05:38
to probably wager no. I don't think 400
00:05:40
million people have just stopped using
00:05:42
Windows out of nowhere. The thing about
00:05:44
Windows is it's entrenched. And one of
00:05:47
the reasons why this is important to me
00:05:49
is that obviously Windows is not top dog
00:05:51
anymore. I would say the best the last
00:05:54
good version of Windows in my opinion
00:05:56
was probably Windows 7. Okay. Anything
00:05:58
after that I has has felt like a fart in
00:06:01
the wind. You know, Windows 8 [ __ ]
00:06:03
sucked. Windows 10 was like, "All right,
00:06:05
you're giving me Windows 8 without all
00:06:06
the dog [ __ ] attached to it." And then
00:06:08
Windows 11 is just kind of um uh you
00:06:12
like AI, we like AI, we hope you like
00:06:14
AI, let's just shove as much AI [ __ ] as
00:06:17
we can into this system. And I really
00:06:19
feel like a lot of these big tech
00:06:20
companies like AI is just a sort of like
00:06:22
weird uh business that they're all just
00:06:24
running after. Okay, I'm not somebody
00:06:26
that's a lite. I think AI can be cool.
00:06:28
Uh there's a lot of stuff that I was
00:06:30
reading where like you know people were
00:06:32
making these AIs like these students
00:06:33
that were like diagnosing people with
00:06:35
like uh I think it was malaria faster
00:06:38
than like doctors could inadvertently
00:06:40
saving a lot of lives. In a lot of
00:06:42
cases, I think in the medical field, AI
00:06:43
is pretty cool. But then again, I
00:06:45
remember that AI is also used to, you
00:06:47
know, target civilians and military
00:06:49
applications. I also really understand
00:06:52
that AI is used to steal from the artist
00:06:54
and then replace them without their
00:06:56
consent. Uh, just because that's how a
00:06:59
lot of AI models work, right? You know,
00:07:01
a lot of these big companies like
00:07:03
Anthropic, like Meta, like Microsoft,
00:07:05
you know, a lot of them allegedly will
00:07:07
just download pirated content. You know,
00:07:10
stuff that me and you would get a
00:07:12
[ __ ] nasty letter in the mail for,
00:07:14
maybe even civil like litigation. But
00:07:17
these companies can basically pirate,
00:07:19
use the pirated media as fair use
00:07:22
training material for AIS, and then when
00:07:25
they get pinned for the piracy, they're
00:07:27
really just paying a fine they knew they
00:07:29
had to pay anyways. Remember, piracy
00:07:31
really isn't a crime, I guess. Uh, as
00:07:33
long as you're rich enough, okay? Like,
00:07:35
as long as you can pay the [ __ ] civil
00:07:37
penalty. What does it even matter? You
00:07:40
know what I mean? Who gives a [ __ ] But
00:07:42
anyways, I'm getting a little bit too
00:07:43
ahead of myself. The thing with
00:07:45
Microsoft kind of admitting this failure
00:07:47
right now is is actually good because it
00:07:50
really shows that they're not the top
00:07:51
dog. Okay? It used to be back when XP,
00:07:53
Vista, 7, uh, all the way up to 10,
00:07:56
people used Windows because that's
00:07:58
really all that could have been used.
00:08:00
Microsoft was at an advantage. If you
00:08:02
were a PC gamer, if you were anybody
00:08:04
that wasn't using a Mac, Windows was the
00:08:06
only viable alternative. Linux existed
00:08:09
since the beginning, since the
00:08:11
inception, but it's never really been a
00:08:13
mature option up until very recently
00:08:16
where the average user can convert to it
00:08:18
and not feel the level of friction they
00:08:21
once did, right? That's the important
00:08:22
part about this, right? That's the
00:08:24
important part about this technological
00:08:26
like gap that we're having here. Now,
00:08:28
that gap is really tiny. Now, if you
00:08:30
want to use Windows or you want to use
00:08:32
Linux, aides from a few professionals
00:08:34
with certain specific applications, like
00:08:35
people that are locked into Adobe or,
00:08:38
you know, God, you have to use Microsoft
00:08:40
Office. Even though I really feel like
00:08:42
Microsoft Office is only pushed because
00:08:45
big companies pay for subscriptions and
00:08:47
they just force that onto the user. I
00:08:49
have never [ __ ] with Office since high
00:08:51
school, since my first job. Ever since,
00:08:55
I would say after 2010, 2011, we've just
00:08:58
been Google Doc users here. Okay. And
00:09:00
that's just pretty much the family we're
00:09:01
locked into. So, yeah, it's just it's
00:09:05
one of those things where obviously the
00:09:06
competition is here, the choice is here.
00:09:08
You know, it is what it is. Now, one of
00:09:11
the things that I kind of wanted to talk
00:09:12
a little bit about this stuff with
00:09:13
Microsoft is why has Windows basically
00:09:16
been the dominant operating system? You
00:09:19
know, for a while, if you went to the
00:09:20
store, you went to Best Buy, right?
00:09:23
Like, your only other option was picking
00:09:25
up a MacBook, which, you know, Apple's
00:09:26
been around forever. And you know, I was
00:09:28
somebody that made a Porsche Mac. If you
00:09:31
remember that video from like three
00:09:32
years ago, I built a Mac that was better
00:09:34
than I would say most of the Macs you
00:09:36
could buy uh for a fraction of the
00:09:37
price. And I used that through a virtual
00:09:39
machine hackintosh method. Now, ever
00:09:42
since Apple switched their processors to
00:09:44
Mrocessors, their own stuff that was
00:09:46
really good, everybody in the industry
00:09:48
is trying to slowly copy them. In fact,
00:09:50
they're so good that even me, a
00:09:52
dedicated Apple hater, actually ended up
00:09:54
buying one of these things because
00:09:56
they're just really good. And uh you
00:09:58
know, realistically, if you didn't want
00:10:00
to get an Apple, your only other option
00:10:02
was picking up a [ __ ] Chromebook.
00:10:04
Now, the thing is, Chromebooks aren't
00:10:06
even all that bad either. You know, if
00:10:08
you wanted to go to Best Buy and [ __ ]
00:10:10
you can pick up a Chromebook for 280
00:10:12
bucks. You could even install like
00:10:13
Linux. You can even install Proton and
00:10:15
play some Steam games on it. Not saying
00:10:18
the experience on this thing will
00:10:19
particularly be good, but uh you know,
00:10:22
it's an option that's available. And you
00:10:24
know, to no disrespect to the Chromebook
00:10:26
people, I'm pretty sure if you put a
00:10:28
Chromebook in front of some average
00:10:29
person and all they did was want to
00:10:31
browse the internet, you know, watch
00:10:33
some videos, they probably wouldn't give
00:10:34
a [ __ ] if it runs on Mac, if it runs on
00:10:37
Windows, if it runs on, as long as it
00:10:39
runs their browser, it's all that
00:10:41
matters, buddy. That's all they give a
00:10:43
[ __ ] about. Now, looking into
00:10:45
Microsoft's past, and this is where I
00:10:46
kind of wanted to like make this video
00:10:47
to like sort of showcase that Microsoft
00:10:49
has never been like a like a competitive
00:10:52
group, right? Microsoft has really
00:10:54
gained a lot of advantage back during
00:10:56
the days of MS DOS, the original
00:10:58
Windows, where they were the first ones
00:11:00
with a very general usable operating
00:11:02
system. But they weren't the ones with
00:11:04
the best operating system. What
00:11:06
Microsoft has always really done is
00:11:08
abuse their position to basically remain
00:11:11
dominant. Now, in capitalism, you might
00:11:13
be like, "Doesn't the best product win,
00:11:14
right? Like, doesn't the market decide
00:11:16
anything?" And you would hope for that,
00:11:18
but that's not how it works. What
00:11:20
Microsoft did before 1995 was they went
00:11:23
to the OEM. So, they went to the stores,
00:11:25
right? Like the people that would sell,
00:11:27
you know, Windows systems. Now, you
00:11:29
probably heard the concept of default.
00:11:30
I've talked about it. There's been an
00:11:32
entire lawsuit recently involving Apple
00:11:34
and Google where uh Google was paying
00:11:36
like Apple billions of dollars to be the
00:11:38
default search engine on their phone.
00:11:40
Now, I showed you in a video a couple
00:11:42
days ago with PewDiePie, you know,
00:11:44
self-hosting that you could run
00:11:45
something called Seer XNG locally on
00:11:48
your system and get a better Google
00:11:50
experience without the ads and the
00:11:51
tracking. Now, of course, what'll happen
00:11:54
right here is Microsoft was basically
00:11:56
the first progenitor of that. So before
00:11:58
1995, the OEMs, so your companies that
00:12:01
would build your laptop, so HP, Acer,
00:12:04
you know, uh, Asus, a lot of these
00:12:06
companies you went to to buy your
00:12:07
pre-builds, Microsoft would basically
00:12:09
charge them a license fee for every
00:12:12
computer that they would sell,
00:12:14
regardless if those systems even had
00:12:16
Windows installed on it or not. And what
00:12:18
that meant was if you were paying money
00:12:19
to Microsoft anyways as a fee, why the
00:12:22
[ __ ] would you install Linux for free or
00:12:24
you know other competitors at the time
00:12:26
would be like what OS/2 why would you do
00:12:29
it? You would have to pay Microsoft
00:12:30
anyways. And it wasn't until the United
00:12:33
States government and Microsoft went to
00:12:34
a court case in 1994 that that was
00:12:37
considered anti-competitive because you
00:12:39
were actually stifling the choice from
00:12:41
the user. you didn't even give your
00:12:43
competition a chance when you could use
00:12:45
your money to butt [ __ ] your way to the
00:12:48
top. Now, of course, after all this,
00:12:50
OEMs even were pressured by Microsoft to
00:12:53
just straight up install Windows and
00:12:56
sometimes exclusively in these systems
00:12:58
too, right? And what would happen is
00:12:59
like let's say you were an OEM and you
00:13:01
were like, "What if we want to give the
00:13:02
choice Microsoft? What if we want to
00:13:04
install like Abuntu or something?"
00:13:06
Microsoft would be like, "No, you have
00:13:08
one choice. You can either have us the
00:13:10
dominant platform or we can just walk
00:13:12
away, right? They wouldn't even allow
00:13:15
you to dual boot systems, right? So,
00:13:18
they wouldn't even sell you a two
00:13:19
operating system option. You know, they
00:13:21
wouldn't even give the user the chance
00:13:23
to even learn that competition existed,
00:13:26
right? Imagine if you fired up your
00:13:27
system and you saw Windows or Linux or a
00:13:30
flavor of it. You could have a choice
00:13:32
between which one you wanted to use. You
00:13:34
might actually give Linux a try back
00:13:36
then and you might be like, "Maybe I can
00:13:38
make this work. It's better. It just
00:13:40
works for me." But you never had the
00:13:42
chance. Now, one of the really [ __ ]
00:13:44
things that I saw in this situation was
00:13:46
like in my research was that back in the
00:13:49
I don't even know this, but during the
00:13:51
Windows 8 era, some of the OEM
00:13:53
agreements had it where like because of
00:13:55
secure boot, which was a part of the
00:13:57
UEFI motherboard, literally Microsoft
00:14:00
had mandated that to be enabled by
00:14:02
default, which basically meant that in
00:14:03
certain cases, if you were Linux or
00:14:05
another operating system that wasn't
00:14:06
secure boot capable, you weren't even
00:14:09
running. It wasn't straightforward to
00:14:10
even install your competition. So after
00:14:13
1994, Microsoft still decided to
00:14:16
actually stifle the competition. And
00:14:18
while it was, you know, outlawed or, you
00:14:20
know, it was regulated that they
00:14:21
couldn't do that per processor uh
00:14:23
licensing, what happened later was that
00:14:25
they had minimum commitment contracts.
00:14:27
So let's say that you were a OEM and
00:14:30
Microsoft would just be like, "All
00:14:31
right, you have to purchase a certain
00:14:32
amount of Windows licenses." And it
00:14:34
wasn't like, "Hey, we're making, you
00:14:36
know, 400 computers. We're selling 400
00:14:38
computers. Can we only have 400?" No,
00:14:40
you have to buy like 800 licenses or
00:14:42
some insane amount so that you were just
00:14:44
basically pushing this license on as
00:14:46
many systems that you were selling as
00:14:48
possible. Again, if you were a
00:14:49
competitor like Linux or any competitor,
00:14:52
you never had a chance, especially at
00:14:55
the store where most of the normies
00:14:57
would go and buy their systems. Of
00:14:59
course, even beyond all of it, you would
00:15:01
end up having like this all or nothing
00:15:03
model where Microsoft would basically
00:15:05
say for your entire lineup of computers.
00:15:07
You have to sell Windows, not just a
00:15:10
specific set, all of your systems. Look,
00:15:13
the point is Microsoft never succeeded
00:15:15
anywhere because they generally made the
00:15:18
best product. Um, they won because they
00:15:20
were able to use their capital and their
00:15:22
connections to basically force
00:15:24
themselves into your computer, right?
00:15:26
they were able to force the system to
00:15:29
only provide you this option, right?
00:15:31
Because that's just the reality. This
00:15:33
was never a situation where the best
00:15:34
product always won. Microsoft has always
00:15:37
used its power and leverage in history
00:15:39
to force itself onto the user base.
00:15:41
Except now things are a little bit
00:15:43
different. I feel like there's a wave of
00:15:45
people that are building their own
00:15:46
systems. And even if you go to big
00:15:47
vendors like Lenovo who sell ThinkPads,
00:15:50
which are probably after MacBooks, some
00:15:52
of the most common laptops that I see
00:15:54
out in the world have options for you to
00:15:56
buy Linux systems. And we looked at
00:15:58
their pricing models, right? Like when
00:16:00
you remove Windows, you end up having an
00:16:02
extra like what $200 to $300 that you
00:16:04
could then put towards better hardware.
00:16:06
So you can get a better laptop as
00:16:09
opposed to paying $200 to $300 for a
00:16:12
Windows license that if you really
00:16:14
wanted Windows, you could just download
00:16:16
it from their storefront and just deal
00:16:17
with a watermark or just go on GitHub
00:16:20
and find a script or something that
00:16:21
could get rid of that for you. But I'm
00:16:23
going to leave that for a different
00:16:24
video. And that would just be how things
00:16:27
work. I think what I've kind of learned
00:16:29
about this too is like in the last year
00:16:31
or two, right? Like talking about Linux
00:16:33
has kind of been like, you know, just me
00:16:35
being like a prepper just screaming into
00:16:36
the heavens about this competition that
00:16:39
exists. But, you know, ever since like
00:16:40
Steam OS has become a thing, the Steam
00:16:42
Deck has been one of the best pieces of
00:16:44
hardware you can buy in gaming, right?
00:16:46
Like to me, it's either you know, you
00:16:48
pick up this or you get like a Nintendo
00:16:49
Switch. There are other options, but
00:16:51
generally speaking, even if you don't
00:16:53
want the deck, you can buy any of these
00:16:55
other handheld devices and install Steam
00:16:57
OS and seemingly get a better
00:16:59
experience. And just for Linux users,
00:17:01
there's so many more advancements that
00:17:03
have happened in just like the last few
00:17:05
weeks alone that have made it a viable
00:17:07
alternative for gamers. And I'm sure
00:17:09
with the amount of effort that's
00:17:11
happened into gaming, there's going to
00:17:12
be enough effort put into getting other
00:17:14
software and other things to run
00:17:16
eventually making that gap between
00:17:17
Windows and Linux completely like you
00:17:21
know completely invisible at that point.
00:17:23
And the thing with like Linux is like
00:17:25
obviously it's an open- source platform
00:17:27
and you know you don't have to deal with
00:17:28
like end of life nonsense. As long as
00:17:30
you have capable hardware and Linux
00:17:32
supports a broad set of hardware, you
00:17:35
should basically be fine. And the thing
00:17:37
about it is it's like obviously
00:17:38
something that is open- source and
00:17:39
something that is freeing should be
00:17:41
endorsed by I think a majority of
00:17:43
people. You know, Microsoft Windows is
00:17:46
fine and it used to be the only choice
00:17:48
we had. But the world runs on open
00:17:50
source. Even without Linux, Microsoft's
00:17:53
own money-making services wouldn't be
00:17:56
existing. Okay? And that's the thing.
00:17:58
The world being run by open- source
00:18:00
technologies is not a new concept.
00:18:02
You're watching this video on YouTube.
00:18:04
guaranteed this is running on a Linux
00:18:06
instance on a server powered entirely by
00:18:09
Linux. And the thing is it used to be
00:18:11
the only option for servers and still
00:18:13
is. But for the desktop user, for you
00:18:16
and I, you know, we finally have an
00:18:18
option to have something that decouples
00:18:20
us from Microsoft's predatory licensing,
00:18:22
Microsoft's operating system. And for
00:18:25
the first time, because they actually
00:18:26
have had competition, they've had to
00:18:28
publicly state, "Yeah, we're going we're
00:18:30
going to have to readjust the way we do
00:18:32
Windows. we're going to have to like
00:18:33
debloat Windows. I mean, for [ __ ]
00:18:35
sake, when it comes to gaming, they
00:18:37
finally admitted because of Steam OS,
00:18:39
because of the advancements in Linux
00:18:41
that they're not top dog. In fact, if
00:18:43
anything, Microsoft is actually the
00:18:45
worst option for certain games. And uh
00:18:48
because of that, they had to actually
00:18:50
deal with the competition and attempt at
00:18:53
this point to create a better product.
00:18:54
Now, will they do that? I don't know.
00:18:57
I'm excited to see what they do. But uh
00:18:59
yeah, going forward, you finally have an
00:19:01
option. And it's just it's it's actually
00:19:04
vindicating as a Linux user to see like
00:19:07
Microsoft squirm and actually admit
00:19:09
losses and not only admit losses, but
00:19:11
also admit that people aren't just
00:19:13
switching over to 11. You know, there's
00:19:15
there's a lot of people that are
00:19:16
actually looking at this like upgrade as
00:19:19
the final like fork in the road for them
00:19:21
to actually switch over to the Penguin
00:19:23
or even switch over to Apple, right?
00:19:25
like there's a lot of people that would
00:19:26
be willing to switch just there.
00:19:28
Microsoft has genuinely ruined their
00:19:31
system over the course of several years.
00:19:33
And maybe a lot of that has had to do
00:19:35
with like them chasing AI or them
00:19:37
chasing like a whole bunch of different
00:19:39
things. But you know, they've ignored
00:19:42
the actual core Windows experience. And
00:19:45
it's because of that that uh you know
00:19:47
because your competition has finally
00:19:48
caught up because you've got big
00:19:50
companies like Valve, Apple, really any
00:19:52
company that's pushing you know Linux
00:19:54
further than it used to be.
00:19:57
it times be a change. And I wanted to
00:20:01
talk about it because I feel like the
00:20:02
more you guys learn about the history of
00:20:04
Microsoft, the more you realize why it's
00:20:05
here. You know that it's not a
00:20:07
merit-based win. It's just Microsoft
00:20:10
abusing the legal like system and
00:20:12
abusing their relationship with OEMs
00:20:14
that has got them where they're at. It's
00:20:16
not because they're good. It's because
00:20:18
they just had more money to play with.
00:20:20
Ladies and gentlemen, this is mear. And
00:20:22

00:20:24
dislike it. I am out.
