Split screen gaming or gtfo

Not going to happen unfortunately. There have been so many challengers that have failed to usurp. And the bundling and ecosystem with sharepoint is a) exceptionally useful amd b) anticompetitive. It will take a serious legal case to dislodge excel

Companies care about Windows for sure

Exactly, both are under performing. New CEO should be fixing that

I dunno. Windows 11 sales have been crap. People aren’t buying new machines due to it. Relaunch 12 as privacy focussed, AI enabled (but optional), and they could see a bounce. Double down on Office, keep a steady improvement on Azure, and see Xbox as a growth opportunity. Microsoft could avoid the AI slump

Notice how Apple have not jumped all in. They are anticipating the storm and are well prepared to weather it out

With no successor, no backwards compatibility for next gen. Why would any new gamer opt for it!

Just testing

No. I don’t. Fingers crossed for arch supporting for many years

580xx on arch forever I presume then. Gonna be rough in a few years

Thanks, really well hidden feature here for someone I’m sure

Ooh, got any links on how Leap does this? My searching isn’t yielding much

Yeah, totally is. There’s a reason nobody publishes diffs

Patching means rebuilding. And packagers don’t really publish diffs. So it’s use all your bandwidth instead!

Ankle socks for you

That’s why I have a 65" and sit barely 2m from it. Stick on a 4k Dolby Vision encoded file through Jellyfin. Looks fucking great!

And it will fuck up around half of even the simple formulas. This is really bad, and the idiots in charge should feel bad. Excel basically runs the world and they are about to fuck it up

LLMs lose context over a short session. They all have input limits. Very small input limits usually. Best it can probably do is suggest formulas for you based on your natural language, maybe some copy/paste. Which means it can beat a 9 year old, great news everyone! Or show a help article on pivot tables (which the help function already does!)

Excel is very simple to work with, hence its ubiquity. LLMs also get shit wrong about half the time, way more than half with difficult things ime. Meaning they cost experienced operators time, a few studies are showing this now with coding. And are expensive as fuck. And slow as fuck. And reduce capacity for learning. Meaning they actually cap what excel can achieve, as the user won’t grow at the same rate, renoving the one advantage excel actually has: the learning rate is phenomenal

The C-Suite which insisted on this integration is basically an subservient idiot themselves at this stage who doesn’t understand their product, their market fit, or their userbase. They should replace thenselves with an LLM

LLMs can’t count. Can’t add. Can’t deal with actually large datasets

How is excel a good fit for vibe-coding?

Nowhere close to any junior ime. Grads learn very quickly. Interns only job is to understand. Code academy career switchers understand requirements and will ask questions. Subservient AI does fuck all of any of those things

They are more akin to yet another Rapid Application Development wave imo. Go see how the previous iterations have done. Lots are still with us (rails ftw!). I’ll bet most will outlive LLMs
