My Theory: Windows 12 Is Coming In The Form Of Selenium/25H2.


eventually windows will be SaaS only. Current SaaS and Office 365 builds are just tests for the future implementations.
You think, they won't allow corperations to make there own domain/cloud, and connect there clients to it? Instead to the MS cloud? I think they will keep those options.

Never said that. I’m sure entities such as the Govt will have their own hosting means.

Solid-state oscilloscope? Sounds like something intrusive used at an airport.

Too many close matches in Google search, the above was my favourite result.
All I will say r/Swooosh... and that also applies to Google. It can't solve this "riddle/joke". Either you get it or you don't. :wink:

All this AI/Copilot stuff is eventually going to flop real bad.
Don't see the AI flop happening. People are using AI for all kinds of everything. I have several friends who discovered how powerful and helpful ChatGPT was and are now both paying for subscriptions to it. Tons of enterprises are using AI for loads of workloads.

I use a site called songsterr for guitar tabs to learn to play songs. Recently discovered that they have the ability now using AI to listen to a song on YouTube and have it create the tabs for you for the various instruments and then privately publish it to you, so you can review and tweak and then publish on their site.

Something is definately up there at Microsoft HQ.
Windows Insider has gone radio silent on Twitter/X.
We haven't had a new Canary channel build for 2 weeks straight already, Dev Channel is also late.

They didn't even tweet there are no Canary or Dev builds this week, Very strange.

There are gubmint clouds, GCC and GCC High, for example, so not that far-fetched for governments either.

40 years from now, you may see ms: Soylent Green version?

Nope, it will be “Microsoft Make Room! Make Room!” Which is the name of the book Soylent Green was made from. Also, it was actually supposed to be set in 1999. So we’ve past that junction. People taste good, it should be encouraged. And maybe different colours, not just green?

    ...Where's my horse?
It is interesting that the Dev channel builds have moved to Beta channel, so Dev can be focussed on newer builds.
Forecasting what Ms does or doesn't do is about as accurate as the UK govt economic agencies (OBR, ONS, Bank of E etc) in predicting the state of the UK economy where a typical horse racing tipster has a far better record in predicting winners.

Hmmm. Zac Bowden said something on his latest podcast that sort of confirms what I said in this post.
At one point he said that Microsoft would only raise system requirements when they have a "new version of Windows that they are ready to ship".

He knows Msft does not intend to keep Win11 eternally. And he knows Windows vNext is in the works inside the company.
