That’s pretty amazing, credit to Microsoft. Modern-day weather models are pretty complex and running these kinds of simulations can be pretty demanding.

  Was /s missed or this is AI generated counterpoint?

    Every comment without an /s at the end is definitely 100% serious and unironic.
    • amtamt 2mo ago
      Ah... now I know that Microsoft is running full weather simulations on each user desktop... pretty neat.

        you sound sarcastic

          No /s so I wouldn't know.

            it's not as dead-pan with an /s imhho, I prefer the ambiguity, the increased hilarity, the increased mental work of considering whether a statement is in good faith or being sarcastic/sardonic, the opportunity to understand how people can be hurt and the motives of barbs and lashes and how to discern the distress and deeper needs of "violent" people, and eventually the remembered insights on how to better generate boundaries and equanimity in the way of Buddhist psychology, phenomenological bracketing, non-violent/compassionate communication, Brechtian principles, deconstruction, clowning, DBT, etc lol though I know this doesn't scale to situations without a boundary, where you can get abuse just for existing. I would use /s in a commons that expects a higher standard of good faith/well-being interactions (does thoroughly confusing or disrespecting people for a jape equate to an abuse? how much of memeing is not just legal but moral? these are rhetorical questions, you are allowed to save your mental labour on this for yourself, self-care is prime, though I hope you all have a appropriate levels of support) Stuart Lee is my favourite comedian, they are masterful in playing with this https://youtu.be/5S9QJXa5YP8 https://youtu.be/5S9QJXa5YP8 - Stewart Lee deals with audience latecomers (Basic Lee) https://youtu.be/EclpMn-mK5E https://youtu.be/EclpMn-mK5E - Stewart Lee HITS OUT At Audience Behaviour (Basic Lee) https://youtu.be/NtFJ1HT3gto https://youtu.be/NtFJ1HT3gto - Stewart Lee on Stewart Lee fans (Basic Lee) https://youtu.be/TrkPNwSRxtM https://youtu.be/TrkPNwSRxtM - Stewart Lee on his Audience (Content Provider) shout out to the somewhat similar subtitles use of: (!) p.s. as an alternative to Windows, I always recommend folk use KDE, and a distro based on Arch btw

        You missed the Clouding@Home announcement?

  I also like the compatibility telemetry that uses all my CPU. Seriously, this is a problem since late Windows 7 or early Windows 10 I believe and I have seen so many systems wasting resources and running hot in summer for no reason at all. Not only is this unwanted spyware, it is extremely inefficient spyware.

    They just recently fixed an issue where the start menu would render slowly. The solution was to let the CPU utilization and frequency spike immediately when opening the start menu instead of slowly ramping up. Of course, that means Microsoft just admitted that Windows 11 needs the full CPU speed of a modern processor to render the start menu, which, IMX, is something that they were able to do smoothly under Windows 95 running on a 133 MHz Pentium and 4 MB of main memory without any 3d acceleration.

  you would think the simulation this would be called via API and get a json response, not be running on the client consuming 1.6 GB of RAM....
