I suspect they'll all copy whatever Adobe does so they can say they're matching features. Only a matter of time.

I just went to their site: https://www.tungstenautomation...

"Do More with Power PDF: Introducing the world of Generative AI!
Discover the latest features used to simplify your everyday tasks with a PDF Editor"

Nope.

What about PDF forms?

What alternative PDF editor exists that isn't doing this same shit?

Stocks aren't rising so much as the value of the dollar is falling.

We're giving college degrees to people who can't even read and write now, that's why.

"1: Steal the tech first.. (People bitch at China, but the US started it by stealing everyone else's tech to grow its nacent industries)."

It's a good thing IP law didn't exist when that first caveman figured out how to start a fire or that other one who chiseled a wheel. What you describe is just an extension of natural evolution: someone comes up with a better way of doing something and others adopt it. You can't stop it.

Did you tip your fedora to yourself in a mirror after you typed that?

You'll understand when you grow up and get a job in the real world.

Now lets compare the global impact when a securty component is exploited? When your 5-figure new car shits the bed due to a mfgr defect vs. the hundreds of billions in damage when a Microsoft bug is exploited.

Do you even hear yourself? "Why don't you want to spend thousands of dollars unnecessarily? Microsoft wants you to! Are you poor or something?"

The Disposable Generation have been conditioned to accept planned obsolescence and the idea you're just supposed to throw away hundreds of dollars in gear every couple years and spend that money again unnecessarily.

LOL! Imagine saying that to a corporate client. You guys live in the world of make-believe.

You guys have been saying this for 30 years now. Give it up already, not happening. Be happy with the phone market.

I have a whole complex full of i5-7500/7600 PC's that are not Win11-compatible. These are perfectly good machines. For everyday business-use their performance is indistinguishable from your modern gaming rig especially with a cheap SSD. There is ZERO business case for replacing the whole fleet because of an unnecessary arbitrary requirement put on by Microsoft solely to boost OEM partner sales.

Even if they did give you an EOL date it would be meaningless. I remember Win10 being sold to us as "the last Windows operating system."
