Sounds like we're about to get a lot more Linux users!

Oh cool PCWorld just printed lies/slop I guess.

No, an AI-focused "Windows 12" is not coming this year — here's the plan

A new report has caught the internet's attention, claiming that Windows 12 is coming this year and will be a modular, AI-powered OS. Here's why that's wrong.

Windows Central (www.windowscentral.com)

@crackhappy @bweller @bmoreinis @mttaggart @catsalad Ubuntu said that's an open list discussion, not commentary from the developers or anything official. It's not instant anything, fortunately.

@mttaggart welp. Guess I get to remove them from ye olde RSS feed.

[mttaggart@infosec.exchange]

They've added a retraction/apology, but once bitten twice shy.

@mttaggart

wait they added AI to everything that nobody wanted, and made it so you can't move the taskbar?

what kind of sadistic dipshit clownsow is this

[pixelkeen@mastodon.art]

@mttaggart I'm in the same boat with Ars. It's a damned shame.

@mttaggart it’s reasonably interesting how it happened, but it doesn’t change that it shouldn’t have happened and should have been caught before it was published
So yeah, the chances of me taking anything from PC world seriously now are not zero but they’re not much above zero

@pl @mttaggart As if Linux distributions weren’t enshittified enough already. #systemd

[pl@cosocial.ca]

@tux0r what's wrong with systemd? *ducks*

[tux0r@layer8.space]

@pl No, nothing, it's fine. Everything that sucks in Linux is good advertising for alternatives... ...

(Yeah, my eye's always had a funny twitch, why do you ask?)
