    I have one but never used it (probably since 20 years at this point), what is the diagnosis?

    I bought it back when I was a low rank in the forces as I imagined it could be useful for these single page instructions that you sometimes carry with you. However it was never really needed




  • unless you’re running one of the Enterprise/IoT SKUs…

    That is the whole point. They’re squeezing the users they don’t give a shit about. But personal users almost never buy Windows licenses from Microsoft I’d bet. So what if they switch away? And how are they or their kids going to play Fortnite or League after switching?

    The money for Windows non-Enterprise is made with OEM deals. They probably wouldn’t even notice if nobody bought personal licenses anymore. Might as well make actual money from selling data about them.

    Enterprise is a different story, once you squeeze too hard, companies will find ways to replace you; they are somewhat resilient to pain, but it does have limits.
