Yeah Android is n't continuing to treat us like a frog in boiling water by allowing side loading but restricting it ever so slightly each year. This year they're getting ridiculous with it forcing people to respond with like a million different permissions every single time they download any app. Fire OS is also going to stop using Android on their TVs so they'll be no side loading on fire TVs.

[@bjoernusw5195]

The reason the "@" wasn't working probably is that despite the printed layout of the keyboard being QWERTZ, Windows was set to English and the default keyboard layout to QWERTY. So pressing "SHIFT" + "2" probably would have worked.

[@whohan779]

Even though that might be true, I've had [Alt Gr]+[ Q ] not work on some older Windows versions that 10. In such cases you've gotta resort to [Strg]+[ Alt ]+Q or [ Alt ] + 64 (which is a way to type most unicode by its codepoint value).

[@agactual2]

All of the Windows RT servers and the app store were shut down by Microsoft about a year and a half ago, so very little on these tablets actually work anymore. There are versions of Linux that can be installed on these to make them slightly more usable but these are so underpowered by modern standards that you might as well not. The RT tablets are little more than e-waste. If you had to have a tablet like this, the Surface Pro 1 and 2 are an infinitely better option, although still probably a poor investment.

@@Caleblovingking1 It was Microsoft's first attempt at a tablet. I think the iPad came out a while before, but Windows on ARM just really wasn't a ready product by then.

It's crazy how technology is so disposable that a perfectly working tablet from 10 years ago is completely useless today. The same goes for notebooks and PCs, although these last a few more years before becoming obsolete. To understand how ridiculous this is, imagine if your stereo suddenly stops playing CDs, the radio doesn't work, etc. Not because it's broken, but because it can no longer do the things it was designed to do.

[@gabekreider-letterman6528]

Not a real solution for most people, but I just installed Linux on an old surface I had lying around and now it is a workable tablet (fedora plasma mobile). At least with windows you can do that, the old iPad I have lying around is completely useless

[@EVPaddy]

the x86 vs ersion is still usable... the rt never really was.

It's easy. In order to force create disposable product do these simple steps: 1. create hardware which locks you out from bios 2. lock boot partition 3. install shitty os 4. wait 5. stop support 6. turn off servers. Happy customer will come back again.

Windows 8 is a classic case of a company not listening to its customers.

[@antred11]

That's pretty much the entire history of MS (save for a few exceptions). They keep making useless changes no one asked for while stubbornly refusing to fix ancient bugs / implement much needed QoL improvements.

[@CaptainCaveman1170]

I feel sick to my stomach that I am going to defend Microsoft, but you have to put yourself in their shoes, at that moment in time. The iPad was wow-ing everyone and taking over mindshare so they felt they needed to compete directly with it. But they were a desktop-only company. Regardless, they thought that they could one up Apple by making a touch-first tablet that ALSO could convert into a full productivity laptop-esque thing whenever someone needed the full desktop experience. The problem was, you had be a certain type of nerd to appreciate that jack of no trades approach. And I was one of them, but I always understood that the mainstream consumer was never going to be into that approach. The other big problem Microsoft had was that Windows was designed to run on battery-hogging x86 architecture, so in order to make a tablet with decent battery life, they literally had to rewrite Windows to work on the ARM architecture. This was quite a programming feat, but ultimately a disaster because if someone needed any "normal/traditional/exe" applications they were going to be incompatible (no translation layer available at that time...a really tall order that would have taken too long and destroyed performance). So no, it wasn't "really" Microsoft not listening to their customers, it was them trying to combat Apple by ushering in a hybrid future that 1. No one (normal) wanted and 2. Wasn't ready to be ushered in at that moment anyway. Most of the ideas used in Windows 8/RT have already made their way back, just in different, more palatable, and more complete ways. Just as with Windows Pocket PC/Windows Mobile, Microsoft wasn't too late, they were too early.

[@TheDavo6233]

Windows 8 was last good windows. Fast, fluent, not buggy, and the best 2v1/hybrid and tablet OS ever. 10 buggy and slow, and 11 not good for tablets or pc with touchscreen. and still buggy

[@AchtungEnglander]

@@CaptainCaveman1170 very good analysis

[@ShatteredRubies]

honestly they should have upgraded all 8.1 devices to windows 10 build 9785 lol (Essentially 8.1 but with a start menu but it still had the normal start screen in the Taskbar properties)

[@AzureLupine]

At least they didn't double down on all the terrible parts of 8 when they made 8.1. With 11 they seem to actively try to make things worse.

[@myoutuber77]

That is expected, Microsoft has been consistent with their O/S (un)usability for the past 30 years now -- exactly every other release of Windows is a winner: Windows 95 (was good in its day), Windows 98 (bad), W98 SE (good), Me (bad), XP (good), Vista (bad), 7 (good), 8.x (bad), 10 (good), 11 (bad). There is a good chance Windows 12 will be a good O/S.

@@какойтошизик You might look back at it through rose tinted glasses, but when it was actually out and new it lagged like crazy on most hardware. Sure, a high-end PC at the time was fine running it, but this was a time when most people were running single core CPUs and integrated Intel graphics, and a lot of people/institutions/schools were on old P3/4 hardware with VIA or SIS craphics. People hated it because you had to put in time and effort to make it run acceptably. This was also at the time netbooks with Atom were introduced, and as the first cheap laptops at the time it was the first computer for a lot of people, and Vista was not good on those. Sometimes the problem is not the software but the time it was released at. OS/2 was a great OS but 3 years too late to become relevant, Crysis is not that hard to run today, but at the time it was ridiculous (much like how Cyberpunk 2077 was an indicator you have a high-end PC not long ago, but today you are expected to be able to run it smoothly).
