Are the people running machines after EOL aware of the official EOL date, or even necessarily that there is one? Ridiculous idea, that people will just march out to the dumps with their still functioning computers.
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoNo, obviously people aren't gonna throw away their PCs after next year just because Win 10 won't get any more updates, the same way how they don't immediately throw away their Macs and Androids that stopped getting SW updates. People are just throwing hissy fits over nothing burgers. I wish editorialized click-bait garbage articles like this would stop ending up on HN frontpage. If I had a cookie for every FUD Windows 10 EOL article on HN frontpage I'd be diabetic already.
