They demanded that they be allowed to create their own game app store but Apple won’t allow any competitors on their platform. If windows banned steam and demanded Microsoft get their cut through the windows app store people would be rightfully mad because it’s a monopolistic tactic. Apple allowing game streaming apps is a step in the right direction but still not enough

    Small correction for 6:30
    Europe doesnt have anything to do with it for once. Rather it's Euro NCAP (A private Independent company) who is changing their rating system to heavily disencourage the use of touchscreens. Basically any car that has the mentioned functions on a screen instead of using physical buttons has no chance of getting a 5 star rating.

      LOL, Microsoft is the main developer of Android Subsystem for Windows - if Microsoft requires usage data, they can just build telemetry into their own tech stack.
      More likely Microsoft is seeing that Windows 11 adaption is slow (by December 2023 Windows 10 still had approx. 2.5 times as many users as Windows 11) - much slower than the Windows 10 adoption - and they need to re-focus on different projects (have you heard about AI in Windows 11, it's all the buzz nowadays). Thus developers are re-assigned to different projects and less important projects that didn't convince people to switch to Windows 11 (such as Android Subsystem for Windows) get canceled.

    "New European safety rules will require..." Untrue. Euro NCAP is not a legislative body and can't mandate anything. It's a voluntary non-profit corporation, and certainly a high rating from them is often a big marketing boon, and definitely has demonstrably influenced sales performance.
    But they can't actually lay down rules that anyone is forced to follow, that's down to actual legislation. In their own words "legislation sets a minimum compulsory standard whilst Euro NCAP is concerned with best possible current practice."
    Many car companies don't appear at all on Euro NCAP's reports, for example Ferrari (mentioned in one of the articles shown during the segment), yet are completely legal to sell. So at best what Euro NCAP decides to demand for their ratings can dissuade manufacturers from straying from their demands, if they want to use a 5 star rating as a marketing point.

    • @MTGeomancer
      @MTGeomancer Před měsícem +13

      Sounds similar to the IIHS in the US. They test cars above and beyond the government standards, but can't force automakers to do anything.
      That said, many still comply because as you said, a maximum safety rating from them is a key differentiator with many shoppers. I'm one of them, I won't buy a car unless it has a "Good" rating in every category (which is the highest).

      Headlight regulations are fecking weird btw. For a while after the 90s, almost up until 2015 or so, headlights got _worse_. From what I've been able to gather from reading various sources, is that at some point regulations were set in that if your lights are powerful enough, they _must_ have headlight washers included. If they're dimmer, they don't. So as a cost saving measure even many theoretically capable of being powerful xenon systems were pegged back.
      And it makes no sense to me, because surely dim lights benefit _more_ from headlight washers?

      Physical buttons increase driving security.
      Physical buttons independently connected increase driver security.
      Regardless, just starting the engine or setting up the motor to work requires lots of checks and confirmations so the main computer needs to run. What should be separate is the OS stuff from the firmware stuff. Firmware is only updated very rarely and in a very controlled fashion. OS software that is just some extra fancy stuff that doesn't have to do with driving although it enhances it should be able to just update separately, even when driving, if the driver wants to.
      As long as all the features directly related to driving go through that tighter software (dub firmware), I think it's acceptable. Don't forget that there's no such thing since 2010 as a new car without gas-by-wire.

      I'm kinda tired of trying to explain things, I'm having a headache from another user already who is trying to tell me Linux is the best and why I should switch just because windows isn't fully controllable/open source and Microsoft decides if we get or lose certain features.

    If you want to run Android apps on Windows (or any OS) with Google Play store access, you only need the Android emulator, which comes with Android Studio. There are also several standalone options too.

      On Linux, Waydroid is the better option since Android apps run natively and can directly communicate with the kernel instead of an emulated kernel.

    It kind of makes sense that they're discontinuing WSA, it was a bit janky and not a great experience. But it was the only way to have a dedicated app for audible after they killed the desktop app to replace it with a WSA alternative.

    Obligatory “What you're referring to as Linux,
    is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
    Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component
    of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell
    utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.” 9:02

  • @MangoPanic
    @MangoPanic Před měsícem

    I did use the subsystem sometimes, because I'd used the work arounds to get the play store running.
    Eventually I uninstalled it because I didn't use it enough and it kept randomly booting up in the background and taking up a ton of system resources.
    I never wanted to bother opening the apps because it took a while, and then I'd have to go kill the subsystem processes after or it'd eat up my RAM.
    There also wasn't, to my knowledge, any way to use it to play games. Which kills off a good chunk of what I could've used it for.
    I honestly feel like it's kinda just easier to use an emulator :/
