A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I sincerely hope you're trolling.
I teach computer science and windows has been the biggest source of problems I've had in the last five years: I've seen defender delete their programs when compiling them, I've seen it delete gcc because it thought it was malware, I've seen it do forced updates in the middle of a test, I've seen updates break tools like compilers and servers that needed to be reinstalled on a daily basis, I've seen onedrive make some of their files inaccessible, I've seen updates break their wifi, I've seen it take upwards of 10 minutes to log into our AD domain, the list of problems goes on.
These days windows is a piece of shit, especially if you're a developer. I'm basically forced to have them either install linux or do all their development in wsl, and it fucking sucks.
He is, it's painfully obvious. If not from his original comment, then at the very least from his follow-ups to the replies he got
