the infuriating thing is that Windows genuinely desperately needs application sandboxing, except they tied it to their tablet app garbage that nobody wants
because the win32 ecosystem is full of lovely developers backwards compatibility so they can't touch it

remember how everything broke when vista actually started enforcing stuff

Old news, but I just realized that Windows 8.1 with Bing is not actually something the 'POS just came up with to be funny. they actually sell a product named that. somebody, somewhere was paid money to come up with that, and somebody was paid even more money to look at it and go "Yep, that¨s good. Lets ship this!".

Microsoft apparently does not trust businesses to patch their own poo poo but they trust enterprises? lol

I work with MSPs and they're so loving mad because it will be impossible to manage their clients' updates but they're also convinced it'll be changed before release

good to see microsoft still diligently working towards completely loving small MSPs

of course the long-term goal is to cut them out completely with their own services, why get an MSP when you can just buy a yearly subscription to Microsoft Azure with Bing! Windows for Computer Workgroups 10.11 (subscription includes office 365 pro, communicator lync skype for business and a gazillion terabytes on skydrive onedrive halo drive)

too bad no business is ever gonna go for that

even in the roughest drafts of poo poo I do I can at least manage some degree of alignment so it's readable to my own eyes, let alone a public beta that is going out to millions of potential customers
