Windows 11 won’t let me know anything. Ever since I was able to get Final Fantasy XIV to run on my Debian laptop, I have not had Windows on any of my computers.
This existed briefly, but was quickly removed because big box retailers complained that people were looking at the real stats instead of big numbers in their ads.
fuck windows 11
fuck Microsoft
Oh you mean like Windows 7 did
Wasn’it even introduced in Vista?
Windows 11 will soon let you know why
your PC hardwareWindows 11 sucks.Brings back memories!
5.1 Calculations per second? Seems low.
Its running Windows. Once the corporations have taken their cut, there are 5.1 calculations left for the user.
Simpler times, when 0.0000000051 GHz was enough to get by!
Depends on what is calculated. Calculating all digits of pi 5.1 times per second seeems pretty fast.
Didn’t it also max out at something ridiculous like 8.6? To “keep room for better hardware in the future”?
it maxed out at 5.9 at first, then it was raised to 7.9 for Win7 and 9.9 for the rest. TIL it’s still a thing, I thought it started and ended with Vista: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_System_Assessment_Tool
The answer is always going to be, “Because you’re running the incredibly bloated Windows operating system.”
Honestly, not a bad feature for once. I have seen people build (or get others to build for them) the weirdest fucking systems.
Can it tell why the currently running OS sucks tho?
Seems like a way to push hardware sales
MS doesn’t really sell much hardware though…
Pretty narrow vision. Microsoft can suggest hardware for you and charge the seller for the advert.
Wow your chrome is running really slow, try buying new Corsair ddr5 ram available now on amazon
Can. Are they?
Just discussing potential.
They sell bogus certification for others hardware though.They used to, not relevant today. Sorry.
Do they? This is the first I’m hearing about this.
Looks like my info is pretty out of date, they stopped charging a long time ago.
Imagine your car does this too: “Beep Bop. Too slow. Car needs a new engine and tire.”
It’s already happening, not this aggressive. My kia vehicle for example, it will display a prompt screen on the dashboard. Telling me about how I have X days of service left. It is telling me, indirectly, that I need to change my oil or do something when I looked up what it was.
That’s a pretty bog-standard feature though… My 2008 Toyota has a maintenance reminder light that pops on every 5000 miles.
Not really even accurate though. It’s more like “buy a new car”.
Just install UBUNTU, it will make your 10 year old machine run like it’s brand new because the OS doesn’t suck and isn’t Windows 98 with code piled on top of it.
Ubuntu has been in quite its own mess and having an identity crisis now.
That’s unfair. It’s Windows NT with code piled on top. Also, Linux Mint may be an easier transition for Windows users.
But it can’t even give me a descriptive error message as to why it won’t accept my password change. Huh.
(Minimum password age, really?)
Or any error issue.
I wonder if it’ll handle e-cores better than Task Manager.
Overall, it’s reporting 20% CPU usage. But all P-cores are pinned at 100%. E-cores idle. Of course I’m not CPU bound, I don’t need a better laptop, don’t be silly! And that’s just a Teams call. Fuck teams.
Ugh I hate this. It could be a list but they’ve got AI or somebody that writes like AI expand each bullet into a useless paragraph.
