It sounds like your entire premise is based on the article summary and the use of the colloquial "forever", rather than studies, science or investigation.

Scaling everything else is explicitly what the poster i replied to didn't want. He wants larger text but for all other UI elements to remain the same size, rather than for everything to be scaled.
If you just make the fonts bigger and don't scale other things too, then you end up throwing out assumptions made when UIs etc were developed. Often a button for instance will be just big enough to contain its label, if the font becomes bigger it no longer fits inside the space that has been reserved for the label. Things end up ugly or even broken.
It's a very hard problem to solve.
DPI is a separate thing, sizes are supposed to be based on real world lengths not numbers of pixels - so higher DPI should just result in more detail at the same physical size.
By the time the new devices from MS are available, it's likely that Apple will have moved on to the M4.
Most Mac software has already been ported to ARM so it runs natively, whereas very few Windows apps have native ARM versions. As fast as their emulation might be, it's going to be slower and more resource hungry than native code. And likely part of the reason why Apple have not made huge efforts to improve Rosetta is that for them it's a temporary migration aid that becomes less relevant over time.
When i got the first gen M1 air there were quite a lot of things using rosetta, today none of the apps i'm running are non-native.
Aren't most printer drivers running in userspace, so they can be emulated anyway?
There's also standards like Postscript, PCL etc which don't need printer specific drivers.
Leadership will maximise shareholder value because that's their job, and that's what will earn them bonuses. Long term will be someone else's problem because those who make such decisions will have collected their bonuses and left before there's any fallout.
The current system is set up to prioritise short term profit above all else, so there was never going to be any other outcome.
Sanders may be left of left, supporting public control of healthcare and prisons (gasp) but he's still a capitalist and believes in America. Trying to smear him as a threat to the American Wayâ is bullshit.
Comparing Trump's need for absolute loyalty and sycophants in his administration to what Biden or any normal president does is dishonest.
Inflation is due to bills passed by Congress and signed by both presidents in the aftermath of COVID.
Tech bubble during COVID is not related to presidential action.
Trump's quote is not out of context. He does not give a shit about loyalty to allies or maintaining a strong front against Russia.
Putin is the one person Trump has never directly insulted. Uncannily so. He defers to Putin against NATO and our own IC. He is a chump for so many reasons that shouldn't need said to someone with ears and eyes.
Trump is a much more destabilizing force for democracy, but also more amenable to any "deals" that make him look good to his jabroni base.
I'd bet America's ideological enemies are preferring Trump.
Spoken like a middle class straight white man without major health issues or a woman in their life who may get pregnant.
And who doesn't care about the US's role in the world.
And who doesn't care about US infrastructure.
Or democracy.
I doubt someone living in a slum has access to a laptop, or if they did it's likely to be an old one that would have trouble running modern games. It's also likely to be running out of date, unsupported, pirated and probably malware infested software - so even if they do start earning an income, someone will come along and steal it from them.
monopolies are good for business
there's a reason greedflation is a thing. insufficient competition.
There's an important difference between being serious about security, and making a big security theatre song and dance.
The latter is far more visible, but is often not very effective.
Ever since they released a firewall as part of a Windows XP service pack, I think Microsoft has taken security extremely seriously.
Having services running by default but inaccessible due to a firewall is pretty braindead, much more sensible to not have listening services running at all unless the user explicitly enables them.
Depends who you want privacy from.
An authority is a person who can tell you more about something than you really care to know.
