This should be yet another opportunity for Windows refugees to come to the Kingdom of Torvalds.
Ugh... I'm so tired of "microslop" and "AI slop".
I'm not defending Microsoft in any way, but they were releasing buggy updates long before the rise of AI.
They’ve earned that name at this point
I agree, but if microslop can be yhe downfall of microslop I will jump on the bang wagon. I think they should add more IA. Did they try live GenIA update of the user system yet ? Sound a money making idea.
Are you having a stroke?
What would happen if you trained an AI entirely and solely on Microslop's knowledge base?
Some slop for you.
Some slop for you.
Some slop for you.
Anyone else want slop?
As usual, the bug only affects a tiny subset of hardware and lemmy is pretending every windows computer got bricked
its not about the number of effected devices/people. Its about it demonstrating the bigger more structural problems getting more obvious every time one of these happen.
Install Linux. Problem Solved.
It’s hilarious that the issues people think Linux creates (like for example the disk deleting itself) are exactly what happens on Windows lol.
It's hilarious how far you had to jump to land on that conclusion.
There was a story going around back in September ago about the person whose wife used OneDrive on her phone. It had taken upon itself to copy 25+GB of data on the phone into OneDrive, despite only having the free account tier, and copying it to their Windows 11 PC. There it completely filled up its small SSD boot drive, putting it into a condition of extremely low disk space, which in made it impossible for Windows to boot. Here it is.
they are planning to roll out MS 12 eventually which is fully AI slop.
You mean Windows 12?
Calling it that won't be funny until 13 comes out.
Was false news.
But it could be true.
I'm sick of it. I had 4 different problems with it this year at work. And we are paying them money for it....
Microsoft should start scratch
*Microslop
that's a good starting point!
Bunch braindead vibe coders at fault I bet
Microsoft is a corporation that turns ...
*Microslop
So probably not a Microsoft issue, but a Samsung issue, since Samsung share is the culprit?
Huh?
- You buy a laptop and it works wonderfully and perfectly.
- Microslop pushes a sloppy update.
- Your laptop stops working.
Who's fault is it?
I like how, once AI is invented, there is never a problem that isn't AI related.
Microsoft made broken shit before AI, it isn't like they suddenly lost that capability once AI was invented.
*Microslop
Let's start calling it what it is
AI enables them to automate the generation of shitty code for broken systems even more efficiently
But there weren't that many bugs.
It's more like the old adage but extended: "To err is human, to really foul things up you need a computer, but to make an unbelievable mess you need an AI."

Huh, my computer doesn't seem to be affected.
I'm using Arch, btw.
Seems like your pc isn't affected because you don't have a C drive? Try create a C drive and see if there's an issue.
mount c:\windows /root
