@ellieraejaye I love it already, it sounds great! I'm so sad none of my hardware will ever be able to run it.
Also, don't you love that...
Chip makers: not enough chip production to fulfill consumption of datacenters + the rest of the world
MS: I'll need a third (after CPU and GPU) dedicated chip to run my OS.
Also MS: Perfect!

@ellieraejaye and come on! Don't you love another subscription?!

@AlexInBlue yeah, requiring the TPM chip for 11 was bad enough but requiring an NPU chip sounds like a ridiculous idea. And who would want to pay a subscription just to be able to use your computer? Stupid. I'm starting to think they want people to move to Linux now.

@ellieraejaye The TPM did and does have some good reasons tied to security.
The NPU chip is simply ridicolous but... it make sense if you look at their POV that AI must be everywhere, you need it just to breath, clearly we will need an NPU to poop soon, I look forward to this. Not to mention that it will generate another wagon load of tech wastes and prices of components will raise *even more*.
However... all together... in the end, it make sense: you enforce more consumption to fight against the consumer less/reuse trend, you enforce the enrichment of fews as the companies making hardware are a well known small group, you enforce AI in everywhere which is the dream of tech bros.
The subscription is on trend with "subscription everything" that sells so well, second only to AI, in the big tech bros circle, where you won't own anything but subscribe to everything because it's easier, safer and cheaper for the consumer. I think Amazon said it or some other idiot that they "see the world" as subscripe for a remote desktop somewhere in the cloud while paying a subscription for the cloud as much as for the minimal hardware needed to connect.

@ellieraejaye and their counting on companies and on the masses that are anestetized enough to follow and go over Win12.
