Solution to get rid Windows 8 haters


Recommended Posts

let me get this straight:

You could say Windows XP sucked, or Windows 7 sucked (far from it), but if you say Windows 8 sucks on Neowin, you get maimed and trampled by a mob! It must be because Microsoft is putting their future on Windows 8 and if it fails, then it would be the end! People have the right to express their opinion on something! I like Windows 8, but I think Microsoft should have waited to release it so they could make it a more complete and finished OS! Windows 7 has a less chaotic and more consistant interface, on the other hand Windows 8 is speedier and more modern feeling.

A mob of what, three people? ;)

I do not hate Windows 8, as I am using it on my laptop. However if I could just boot to the desktop, I would be extremely. I always loved booting straight to the desktop and being on it so I can see all my folders, shortcuts, my computer and everything. It is a comforting feeling being on the desktop also. Enough with having to press win+d key or press the desktop tile, I want my pc go automatically go to the desktop by itself like it always has in the past.

You think i said nonsense and i'm a hater, but just give a look in this forum , here another example:

https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1149926-windows-8-groupedit-is-very-unfinished/

thread closed forever, you cant say bad things about windows 8 anymore!! well, ITS A FAILURE and neowin will FAIL WITH MICROSOFT IN THE END

Alot of the Windows 8 haters are those who used Windows for along time! I say Windows 8 is the most controversal Windows of all time!

I see that you were not here during the "I HATE UAC, THIS IS MY PC WHY CAN'T I DO XYZ WITHOUT PROMPT" Vista days.

I think we can all agree they way Metro has been implemented is the biggest lightning rod since UAC/Superbar.

*nix users never complained when entering password fields, that tells you something about the concern of security between both comparison groups for Windows users and *nix

False equivalence (and offtopic) but... The problem with UAC in Vista wasn't the idea of a superuser, or even one where you had to enter a password for root a la OS X/*nix - but the repeated, mind numbing and inconsistent amount of 'OKs' to hit that was 'fixed' in Win7.

Lets see, security and usability are conflicting forces, one OS is geared for users, the other for ops...hmmmm.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups by Paul Hill Fears that increasing government control of social media risks regulatory capture by the biggest social media firms were raised again recently. Bluesky’s chief operating officer said in an interview that social media bans for children and tighter regulations for social media firms risk creating a world where there are only a few social media platforms run by companies with the deepest pockets. Regulations on social media firms have been very lax since they appeared for mainstream users in the 2000’s. This gave Meta, Snapchat, and Google time to build up their user bases and get entrenched, with Meta being the most successful. Now that Meta has succeeded, it has been attempting regulatory capture. By pushing for more regulations of social media, Meta hopes to make it more difficult for rivals to challenge it. For its part, it doesn’t need to worry about the cost of regulation because it has a lot of money to spend, whereas startups do not. Speaking to CNBC, Rose Wang, Bluesky’s chief operating officer, said: “I support the protection and the safety of youth, the question that we have then is at what cost, because essentially what I’m scared of is in the long term, we’re headed to a world where there’s about three to five platforms, and extreme heavy regulation of those platforms, and basically the whole compliance teams of these platforms are 10 times the size of our entire team. So, basically, we’re living in a world where it’s almost impossible for smaller entrants to come in and build healthier spaces. These platforms have led to a place where the bottom line is the thing that drives what they do... so I understand why governments have to step in and regulate, because the platforms have done nothing right.” She said that while she is not against regulation, there needs to be more channels between the small to mid-sized players and regulators to help protect them. She says that big tech players, on the other hand, “who we know are circumventing regulation,” need to be regulated. Essentially, the Bluesky position is one of nuance, rather than absolutes. While Bluesky’s proposal may preserve competition in the social media space, it still doesn’t address the massive privacy implications these age verification measures introduce, such as handing over sensitive identity documents to access age-gated content.
