Why is Microsoft so based bros?

if DirectX is so dead then why aren't games on OpenGL and Vulkan?

Go to pcbg and get it activated for free

My favorite Windows update occurred when I walked away while I was compiling our project to distribute a build for testing.

all good though, and they help maintain legacy compatability
you need to use the server / enterprise versions

>PowerShell

fuck off Ballmar

Skype is a pure garbage.

powershell is far superior to bash

because most games are recycled from old versions when directx was dominant and devs are lazy fucks who dont want to port stuff

What's bad about it? I only used it to clean Windows 8.1 of Metro shit, and it just works.

there is an option to turn off the automatic updates, isn't it?

It's relatively useless as a CLI. You only ever use it because Microsoft has some "professional" feature they didn't expose as a gui so they can rationalize charging an extra 100$ for pro and server versions of their software... Simply because powershell is not available on home versions.

The fact that they're a megacorp as bad as apple and google

argument parsing in powershell vs. any other system scripting language.
go ahead, tell me how any other are better.
And by the way, powershell is available on linux

haha funny wojak

haha funny retard linux user whos github is full of 10 line python and bash scripts

no game actually performs better in DX12 mode even on latest hardware or super extream hardware. and the sadest thing people still shill DX12 as a example of how multicore matters yet you get less fps on it but it shows scaling on multicore lol... like wtf that's pointless. its a failed api it doesn't even look nicer and nividia isn't even using DXR (dx12 raytracing) for its raytracing patches its using volken and only used DXR for that stupid demo that was running on a RTX titian that's prob crazy fast.

dx12 is literally shit teir.

Microsoft software sucks, but lets be real: desktop Linux is a joke and it will probably continue to be a joke. If you don't have a business model that brings in lots of money you can't make a proper desktop OS.

>powershell is available on linux
Of course. That explains why it's so popular. All the linux admins are all overjoyed that they can finally use powershell, adoption is through the roof lel

desu powershell isn't bad as a .net shell. But why would you use a VM runtime shell for your system? It would be like using Groovysh as a main shell, or those weirdos who use an interactive Python prompt as their shell.
bash is better for interactive use, orders of magnitude faster, has a much larger ecosystem and has ssh instead of the MS way of coding remoting separately into every single command

>They gave us an operating system that just werks
obvious bait is obvious

no one uses Linux for special features it has people use it because its free and doesn't force updates.

people say you can pause updates on win10 but every one that says that has only done so for like 2-3months and they never come back and say they have stopped it longer and there is like as many methods to stop updates as forced ones that have happened so I think its bullshit.

they force updates even on enterprise and even with hardcore hacks. if you convinced you have found the best way to stop them in 6months it will be forced on you.

By Enterprise do you mean Pro? Actual Windows Enterprise and Server releases have a much more lax policy regarding updates.

sh-shut up

wtf are you on about? desktop linux is fine, better than MS even if you don't need autoCAD or PS.

>people say you can pause updates on win10 but every one that says that has only done so for like 2-3months and they never come back and say they have stopped it longer

Just a few days ago I updated a W10 Pro PC for the first time since May. Updates simply stayed off the whole time. So that's 4 months.
I hate W10, it's an abomination. But you need to find something else to complain about, there's plenty.

>no one uses Linux for special features it has
are you genuinely retarded?

I use enterprise and this is wrong I literally have all the update delay menus and gpedit settings set to max or off and I still got forced update 2weeks ago or some thing that deactivated my crack and had a forced update before that 3months ago that I managed to delay for 2months but it was still forced thru.

according to my settings and the literal documentation of enterprise I should have been able to delay that update for 6-12months depending on what you read and when.

I manged to stop it for 2months.

you cant stop them for long term unless you buy a subscription for invvuew or what ever that Microsoft app is to control it.

and LTSC 2018 just came out and doesn't have raytracing and wont for like 3years so that's not even a option really now >_

Direct X is a proprietary GPU api that was designed to help them corner the market for desktop gaming. Without games their shit OS would have died years ago. And im so glad that DXVK is bringing games to linux. Fuck MS and fuck their shitty overpriced adware OS.

>gave us
>just werks
Nope

>KMS

Probably the only bigass tech company that isn't going anywhere later, alongside amazon
Pretty diversified overall, and in recent years they're gaining/pulling more devs from the apple camp

I hate that Microsoft office is mandatory on every PC I deploy to business'

Its fucking stupid that people make their documents that in essence can be work $1000, 10k, 100k in a priority format locked to a $250 suite.

Really grinds my nipples.

daz' doesnt work for 8 and 10

They just want to complete with the voice to text, AI, and machine learning business. They need vast amounts of data for that.

>installed Windows 10 Pro N
>no bloatware, jsut standard Windows tooling

Maybe if you actually got the right OS version you'd fcking have no issue.

Just use Enterprise OS, they give you 180 days free, you can probably reuse it, but I'm not a pirate faggot.

>not using a build server

What a ghetto nigger office you work at.

Blame the government. They have an open check booklet with Microsoft's name on every check.
If I can help end the notion of supporting data imported from Excel or any other microshit product, I'll die a happy man.

No it isn't, I notice a 50 ms input lag on Ubuntu, which is not present on Windows.

You are free to develop better, just werks alternatives :^)

What did Microsoft mean by this?

The problem is Excel doesn't support input validation in any meaningful way and the barrier to entry is having enough brain function to fog a piece of glass held to your face.
Horribly structured data and help desks that have high turnover/alcohol problems is all you get.

who here windows server?

>powershell is far superior to bash
Until you have to SSH into a non-windows machine.
God help you if you want to use AWL, Perl, or any number of standard *nix utilities.

Cringe and blue pilled

There's a *nix layer on Windows

just run ubuntu.exe

There are good alternatives, but no good ways to move to those alternatives.

Libre office has pretty good importing of office docs but not perfect. When you're looking at moving company data from up to 18-20 years of office files over to a new suite pretty good doesn't cut it.

you have to be retarded to run the powershell on a nonwindows system

iWork is better in every way

All shit except Bing which is actually really good

Isn't Nier automata the first game that dxvk supported?

no, it's because all of you so called open source activists can't even make good open source drivers

Spoken like a true neet.

That is entirely your fault for not disabling updates.

heh, my win 10 can't even run Skyrim, and screws up valve games, visual c libraries always complain, never work
what a disappointment, so much for a major update
win 7 does it flawlessly

If you look at the lists of games using Vulkan vs the games using DX12 on Wikipedia, the Vulkan one will be about 10x as long.

And thank fuck for that. The last thing we need is more devs buying into the Micro$haft lock-in.

As someone who was actually conscious in the 90's, this makes me sick.

You forgot to mention Bing

This, except replace 'play some games' with 'get some urgent work done'

It's a productivity killer.

I say their C# is their greatest accomplishment. It is such a joy to use. Also gaming desu.

This man also seems to being doing good with Microsoft.

Ask me how I know you've never had a job.

Yeah, but he was good enough to Immigrate to America. There is a very strong filter on who we let in, so we are sucking up alot of talent from India. Alot of the shittier devs are stuck in india.

W10 works flawlessly for me. My only gripes are how my cpu goes apeshit with the telemetry and configurer every month or so. It really is a nice feeling, though, knowing any software will run on my machine.

and the data/privacy/keylogger harvesting

Telemetry you can't disable, spyware, virii, malware, overpriced, closed source; shall I continue?

The military still has to use pajeet/jew OS because it has more security updates.
Also us and UK still use XP... UK has an aircraft carrier running in XP.
Linuxnis used by military too but has nowhere near the level of updates patches

Silly namefag, we don't need to be giving the curry niggers visas so they can take jobs away from americans.

Nope.

I kinda wish they would add support for combatiably for older OS's all the way back

but other than that pretty based
