which then just gets reverted
there is potential financial damages this move from meritocracy could incur.
very *very* minor damages
unless the whole IT department is on crack
like MS released a fucked update just like... this year?
this shit happens fairly often
yes, but that is not a forced migration to an entirely new os
just revert and wait for ms to fix itself
you can just use an old version of an OS
like most companies already do with windows
the ones not concerned with security yes
not really. Not all machines need to be win10 for security purposes lol
plus if the new update is fucked, that's a bigger security issue
well if thats how you want to look at things, then i hate to break it to you but everything is a security loophole
as for the code they want to revoke, this will mean that the os itself would be crippled
prior versions are still available
if they do take back their code they help contribute, it wont just open up security holes, it would also make certain things what we generally depend upon upright mia
this dispute is whether or not CoCLinux can keep the shit
well heres the dilema for older versions
not whether or not every version of Linux gets taken apart
certain distros will need certain variants of certain dependencies
if they dont have what its looking for, it wont work
you can possibly patch it to work with a newer variant but thats just not feasible
yes, and you just revert to a prior version of the already functioning distro
the new version will be fucked, old version is fine
um
no
all versions are fucked for a different reason
how long will it take for a perfectly functioning older build to be fucked?
wut, companies *already installed them*
you can revert *in linux* to an older build ez
if the new one is buggered
or at all
you have to reinstall the whole damn thing
>you might have to reinstall the whole thing because something happened outside of your PC
wot
listen shithead, you need to see it how we represented it to you, not how you want things to be
comform to our ideas and keep your ass backwards ideas out of it
"you need to see it in this very specific way that doesnt make sense, or I'll insult you"
que?
>Microsoft releases new FUCKED PATCH
>Everyone installs it
>Oh no, this is fucked
>Everyone reverts back to prior patch, which was already installed, which backups exist for
>someone makes fucked Linux commit
>everyone installs it
>oh no, this is fucked
>apparently we have to reinstall the whole thing now
I dont understand
Are we talking past each other here? Is there a separate issue you're trying to describe
dont talk again about this until you can go do your fucking research before spewing more of your bs out of your ass
