    Yeah-yeah, very bad. Such a tragedy.

    Why not to copy-paste the main thesis from the article here? The title is so ridiculous that I doubt anyone would try to jump by the link.

        Like any sane person would. Why would anyone want to watch a 20-minute mumbling of a 2-paragraph worth of text, especially if the title suggests that the author is crazy?

          I don’t know how you got to “the author is crazy” but he’s making the well-trodden and I would have thought uncontroversial environmental impact argument, so yes windows 10 dying is bad for everyone.

        Some people did as they didn’t meet that min specs, but it wasn’t for something silly like the TPM requirement. Locking 11 behind a non-serviceable upgrade is artificially creating e-waste, and they should be forced to pay for it all to be properly recycled, but capitalism cares more about making the graph go up than becoming the earth from Wall-E

          Sure but back then you could simply upgrade your PC.

            If they were a “computer person” enough to know how, or willing to let the Geek Squad over charge them for something as simple as installing more RAM or HD upgrade. But yes, it’s not like a TPM that would require a motherboard swap, which isn’t a thing for laptops outside of Framework (and then only just recently).
