I see a lot of people deny articles about “e-waste” calling them clickbait headlines and such. While I do agree there is a clickbait problem, I have to take it into consideration when I’m witnessing the company I work for right now tossing all the office computers in a pile to smash the hard drive. They just got all new computers a year and a half ago, and these are pretty good for an office workhorse. I thought it might be because of some weird HP contract or something, so I asked. But no, turns out some of them can’t upgrade to 11, and they must all go in the dumpster. “HP won’t take them back and it’s easier to just get all new ones.” I’ve heard similar reports from other companies in the area.

Again I do agree there is a clickbait problem, but I think we need to realize that Microsoft and companies like HP know exactly what they are doing to keep the money flowing in.

I wonder how long it will be until Windows is a subscription based desktop?

Just started getting into it with the Win11 bullshit. I come to find that I can customize KDE to pretty much replicate every single thing I like (or just used to) about the Windows experience and toss everything else out. Fedora KDE has me hooked. No plans on going back.
