HCW.net - For gaming performance, frames per second is not sufficient to portray actual gaming performance. This article looks at frame delivery times, in milliseconds, and shows pretty significant results depending on system configuration.
For office applications, trace based benchmarks were used to show overall responsiveness using real workloads and real data. This gives a better indication of overall performance compared to existing benchmarks that are hardware limited
And, for once, some of what it can do looks genuinely useful.
Microsoft is laying off more employees, a new round after they cut thousands last year. It seems like many big tech companies are doing the same.
Amidst the AI frenzy of 2023, major players like Google, Microsoft, and Meta are in the spotlight, launching their own generative AI systems.

With the new management methods Microsoft is forcing upgrades. How, by making the latest direct-x and .net only function on the newest Microsoft OS's.
For instance even though support for XP and Vista haven't been discontinued both products can't get .net 4.5 installed because MS didn't make those versions compatible with it. A lot of developers must either tell their clients you have to upgrade or we must hold ourselves back to old code.
The same deal is going on with direct-x 11.1 unless you have the Windows 8 you can't run the new games that will require it. So the PC game developers will either be forced to use old direct-x holding back features to keep customers or develop for the bleeding edge customers and abandon everyone without the latest OS installed.
Either way the windows OS is a monopoly and is pretty much in control of subscribing people to upgrade more then needed. Apparently by doing this they can directly influence the markets shift for the newest available product without directly saying we're discontinuing support for older OSs.
So all new software shud be free under your business model. That's an awesome communist model you got there. Im sure every business will be on board will never making a profit. Everything shud be free, the world can then just run on love.
Wow your dumb, so dumb.
