Remember the ol days when you had to nuke windows every year to keep them running smooth? Man gone are those days. A 7 year old installation, with a million installs and uninstalls, no antivirus ever, been to every filthy corner of the internet. Changed multiple graphics cards. No windows updates enabled for years. Still no issues. It took microshit their whole existence to make a no frills OS.
I'm kind of sorry to see my 7yo win 7 installation go. But i got a new MBO + CPU + RAM, and its time to enter the "current year" with win10. For free of course. Yarrrrrr.
Wish me luck.

There is a push from apple, microsoft and google to make it go away. Because they want unform aps across desktop and mobile. The idea is to make ARM or RISC-V processors as powerful as x86, and then use those on desktop. That would enable developers to only ever program one app, since both desktop and mobile would be using compatible hardware.

No, no one actually writes applications in Assembly. The compiler takes the higher level languages, C++ for example, and does it for you.

When did i say stuff is written in assembler?! All i'm saying is: you cant install apps made for phones on PC and vice versa. Every developer wants that to change.
