Brings back memories!
5.1 Calculations per second? Seems low.
Its running Windows. Once the corporations have taken their cut, there are 5.1 calculations left for the user.
Thats a good feature but it kind of reads like ai slop and allows windows to blame the users hardware for issues.
Imagine your car does this too: "Beep Bop. Too slow. Car needs a new engine and tire."
Not really even accurate though. It's more like "buy a new car".
It would be really nice if upgrading the engine was something the average person could just do. That's feasible on EVs, but I'm guessing manufacturers and regulators block it.
No, you can do it.
Can I take a Tesla Model 3 or Chevy Bolt and throw on a second motor? Can I add some additional battery capacity in the back?
In theory, yes, of course. It won't bolt right in, obviously.
It's already happening, not this aggressive. My kia vehicle for example, it will display a prompt screen on the dashboard. Telling me about how I have X days of service left. It is telling me, indirectly, that I need to change my oil or do something when I looked up what it was.
That's a pretty bog-standard feature though... My 2008 Toyota has a maintenance reminder light that pops on every 5000 miles.
It's supposed to do that though, just like any other vehicle notification. That's why they install all of those light indicators. Check Engine. Low Fuel. All of those things.
Not a screen that pops up telling you specifically that you have some days left to service your vehicle. Especially in all places, where you start up your vehicle, where your MPH is measured .etc
The answer is always going to be, "Because you're running the incredibly bloated Windows operating system."
That's an easy answer. It's because it's running Windows 11. Install Linux on it and it won't suck anymore.
Windows 11 will soon let you know why ~~your PC hardware~~ Windows 11 sucks.
Just download more RAM. I don’t see what the big deal is? /s
Unlock more RAM with a monthly subscription, starting at 10 €/month for every GB we disabled for you!
This existed briefly, but was quickly removed because big box retailers complained that people were looking at the real stats instead of big numbers in their ads.
Seems like a way to push hardware sales
MS doesn't really sell much hardware though...
Pretty narrow vision. Microsoft can suggest hardware for you and charge the seller for the advert.
Wow your chrome is running really slow, try buying new Corsair ddr5 ram available now on amazon
