    Thats a good feature but it kind of reads like ai slop and allows windows to blame the users hardware for issues.

    That’s an easy answer. It’s because it’s running Windows 11. Install Linux on it and it won’t suck anymore.

    The answer is always going to be, “Because you’re running the incredibly bloated Windows operating system.”

      It’s already happening, not this aggressive. My kia vehicle for example, it will display a prompt screen on the dashboard. Telling me about how I have X days of service left. It is telling me, indirectly, that I need to change my oil or do something when I looked up what it was.

        That’s a pretty bog-standard feature though… My 2008 Toyota has a maintenance reminder light that pops on every 5000 miles.

          It’s supposed to do that though, just like any other vehicle notification. That’s why they install all of those light indicators. Check Engine. Low Fuel. All of those things.

          Not a screen that pops up telling you specifically that you have some days left to service your vehicle. Especially in all places, where you start up your vehicle, where your MPH is measured .etc

        Pretty narrow vision. Microsoft can suggest hardware for you and charge the seller for the advert.

        Wow your chrome is running really slow, try buying new Corsair ddr5 ram available now on amazon

    Windows taking a page out of Apple’s book. Apple’s way of forcing you to buy new products from them is when they make slightly more newer things of the same-ish specs, with minor tweaks and with massive marketing pushes. And support starts dropping quickly.

    Windows seems to be doing this, by passively telling you to do it. The biggest plus with PCs over Apple, is we decide when we want to upgrade. Until you make a better OS, which is unlikely Microsoft, I’ll upgrade my hardware when I want to and if push comes to shove, I’ll get Linux or I’ll pirate your damn OS like I have done for the past 5 Windows OSes.

    This existed briefly, but was quickly removed because big box retailers complained that people were looking at the real stats instead of big numbers in their ads.
