I will cancel the orders as I have no agents running. And then I will cancel VISA. Fortunately, we currently get more options in Europe.

With the mess their code-base is, I consider it quite possible that they can now only increase the number of problems. Maybe LLMs will be what finally puts Microsoft on the trash-heap of tech history. Obviously, LLMs only find a small faction of the vulnerabilities in code, but they may find enough in MS code to just keep going and going.

To be fair, it works. We even get complete nil wits here that cheer for them, even when their sheer incapability is on display like never.

Yep. They still have not caught up to what was the state-of-the-art 30 years ago. And they probably never will because they cannot. They do not understand the technology well enough and are sitting on a sky-high mountain of technological debt.

We can always depend on you to deliver the most stupid, deranged and disconnected comments. Nice to see at least some things do not change.

MS has stacked tech debt on tech debt and never even tried to make a good product. I doubt they even have any real idea what a good product would look like. That they are crooks is just the icing on the cake.

As it is now, not only Windows is fundamentally broken and cannot be fixed. Their cloud got hacked several times. AD is always vulnerable in some way. They went "all in" on the crappy LLM-type AI. They are done for. They cannot really fix anything, their products just will get worse and worse until total collapse. The best thing for the world would be if they die soon.

Stack tech-debt sky-high, build a house of cards, never really fix or simplify anything and that is what you get: A ruin that can only be torn down. That this is what they did is becoming more and more obvious at the moment. Windows very likely cannot be fixed anymore. Mindless greed does things like that.

My country is banning ICE passenger cars. Soon it will be 'all people whose ICE has died'.

Let me rephrase that. An hour of charging per night may be doable. But I don't want to ever be more than 15-20 minutes away from full.

We have a problem in Canada where the least populated places where you need cellphone reception the most actually have the least reception. This is because the way cellphone companies calculate the benefits of erecting a tower is to put them where there are the most customers. I fear that electric chargers will follow the same pattern. There will be a glut of chargers along highly traveled roads but the more desolate roads in the middle of nowhere will have nothing, so it is questionable whether you will even be able to travel with an EV on those.

But then don't you end up having to install multiple apps on your phone? I may be willing to install a Tesla app if I'm a Tesla customer but installing multiple apps for one car is very distasteful to me.

Trump didn't just threaten, he did it for a large percentage of oil.

"Do you want to go for a drive today? Tap your card for the first 100km!"

The whole EV industry just seems like a huge money grab. Chargers are being placed where you have nothing to do unless you spend money.

Corporations are made of people who are laser focused on making more money. They are the worst kind of people, which makes corporations worse than the average person.
