A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

And they’ll be unable to update or run current software in 10 years, yay

I’m mad that my wife’s imac from 2013 can’t update and Plex server won’t run on its old operating system.

My 6-year old PC can’t run Windows 11. Apple has some of the longest lasting software support in the industry.

If a 6 year old PC that cost as much as an Apple 6 years ago can't run Windows, you got ripped off.

I assembled it myself. It was more expensive than my M1 Air. It’s still a great machine. Microsoft just doesn’t support my CPU (i5 6600K) for some reason. It would probably run Windows very well if it was supported, I have no reason to think otherwise.
