  • I’m not sure that Microsoft ever did halt going down that path. My wife recently bought a PC that came locked down by default and required some fiddling to allow running unsigned apps. This was Windows 10, not sure about 11.

    I think it could be more that broad compatibility with everything is their main selling point, and by doing so they were undermining their own ecosystem.

    However, this is mere speculation on my part.












  • No no, you have a point and I agree. We admit too many viewpoints as potentially valid when these points do not agree with facts. For example, it’s ridiculous to consider the question of the existence of climate change as a topic of debate. Instead, it’s a scientific fact that human-caused climate change is having an impact on our world. To seriously consider points of view that ignore facts (outside of perhaps artistic merit) is not a productive use of our limited time.

    I do think there is some flexibility in the interpretation of facts, but to discard objective truth entirely is to me a rejection of the scientific method, and that does not lead to a desirable future for humans. It is to discard the merits of human progress in general.

    Now, lately a concerning portion of my fellow citizens have expressed that they do not fundamentally believe in improvement, but that’s another topic entirely.
