Title: Bye, Wintel
Post by: Drastic on June 12, 2026, 02:13:51 PM
Getting away from windows except on media/sim pcs. I cannot believe win still has 2-3 different interfaces cobbled together. Mac is a much smoother and easier experience these days and that's what most want at the office.

On my simrig, I just upgraded to an AMD cpu, for the first time ever. Intel has really dropped the ball on innovation in chip tech the last several years.

I've been back on win for 3 years now after 5+ years on linux.  While I was mostly just using a browser I could have used just about any OS, but as I moved back into data-handling, programming, & de-enshitifying some of the best software was win only.
