Microsoft is putting a shiny new version in front of people's faces, with marketing about advanced AI features, security, etc, and then telling them their hardware isn't supported. Even if Windows 10 is still receiving security pa

The thing about secret voting is that you want to make it impossible to verify that a particular person voted for a particular party. Otherwise it becomes possible to threaten people with violence if they don't show confirmation that t
