There's a bunch of media reporting - I don't know how accurate - that Windows 12 will require an NPU (a fake AI chip basically), which almost no PCs have, amongst other stupid features.

Requiring TPM in Windows 11 was stupid and created PC landfill during an economic, global and ecological crisis, to drive hardware profit margins and Microsoft Surface sales.
Requiring NPUs would do the same, during an additional cost of living crisis. If Microsoft go ahead with that, it's time to swap OS.

I've already decided to migrate to Linux for my home use. -

@GossiTheDog I don't remember it saying NPU but the 26H1 update will only be available on some ARM chips. (like the copilot laptops)

@GossiTheDog \o/ (i do hope that microsoft make that move, so that we can seriously work on alternatives solutions ^^ )

@GossiTheDog Linux or MacOS, never had MS above DOS core

@FreakyFwoof yeah I ninja edited, I typo'd 10
@GossiTheDog @FreakyFwoof This is one reason I was holding off buying any new machines at the moment. I really hope MS require this for an optional AI feature but I'm not buying anything now until we know minimum specs for sure. I was hoping my next machine was ARM based anyway.

@GossiTheDog looks like a great time to short Microsoft stock.

The tech bro oligarchs must be stopped.
These monopolists/cartels believe #enshitification is a divine right that demands feudal obedience from the powerless masses that owe them fealty and gratitude.
I don't understand why people put up with it

@GossiTheDog isn’t Windows 11 26H1 not the precursor to this?

@GossiTheDog I find it hard to believe so many people still use Microslop at all. As an enterprise user their software is garbage (endless broken promises and delayed roadmaps on critical infrastructure IDS software, for example) but at least it's expensive. Teams is a dumpster fire (but it's 30% vibe coded, YAY!) serious, Nadella should be fired and that's only the start. But yeah, anyway, use Linux, it's been desktop-daily-driverable for years now. PopOS! is quite normie friendly..
