bfg9k@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?English4·6 days agoI work at a national IT support company talking to hundreds of windows users every week, and the general sentiment is that Windows 11 is unnecessary, new outlook is literally the Antichrist and people are sick of being charged more and more every year for crap they don’t want or need.
Just l8ke I still see 2012R2 servers in the wild, Windows 10 isn’t going away anytime soon.

Everyone I know that uses Windows/M365 hate it more with every passing day and is looking to leave.
I really don’t want to be in tech support in 2029 when they kill off old outlook. There will be blood on that day.

I just want my games to work man. I have a huge library of weird and old games that I have spent years tinkering with to get them to run reliably on modern windows, I honestly cannot be arsed having to re-fix everything on Linux. WINE is not perfect and Proton doesn’t support everything.

Yes, this site is very left-leaning. I have seem plenty of moderate opinions downvoted because they are centrist or centre-right, and the anti-Trump, anti-Elon and anti-USA sentiment is deservedly heavy right now.
Keep that in mind when reading comments, this place is a bit of an echo chamber at the moment.
I’m not your guy, fwend!
God I hope there’s some engineer somewhere at X quietly sabotaging all of their services.
Should plant a timed zip bomb on the servers that autoruns on reboot
bfg9k@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the dumbest thing you've done to fix a tech issue?33·2 months agoNeeded to get a server back online when it’s CPU cooler had failed
Found some random cooler for a totally different CPU, smeared thermal paste on it and zip-tied the cooler to the mobo and case as best I could.
That thing ran like a champ for almost 6 months till I got around to replacing it

Took today off work because I can’t deal with it
Needed to see this, thank you
Went to work in the mines
Apparently had a kid and is now a deadbeat dad
Honestly couldn’t care less, I haven’t thought about them in years
I hope they’re removed from the gene pool
I also ove how Archer keeps track of how many shots he’s fired and they accurately depict how important ammo management is, like how Lana only carries 2 magazines for her tec-9s and it gets her in trouble cause she’s not a great shot lol
