minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-29 months agoNah, won’t happen. Microsoft is generally very reasonable when it comes to GPOs no regulator is going to crack down; their market share is too big. The bigger a company’s market share is the more likely regulation is. Hell, the EU has already done this but for internet explorer. Microsoft won’t depreciate GPOs in many many years, at least. Has anyone else noticed that MS switched their search engine? I have never heard of that. Sounds like a bug or something.

minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·edit-29 months agoI said that they won’t mess with the GPOs. I doubt that MS switched anyone’s search engine purposefully. But that’s more likely than them messing with the GPOs. Them switching search engine hasn’t ever happened to me at least.
minus-squaremelpomenesclevage@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoWhat would you bet that it will never happen?
minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months ago10 EUR that it won’t happen in at least 10 years. Longer than that I won’t make a bet for anything.
minus-squaremelpomenesclevage@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoI’d honestly take that. Uh, is there a remind function? If I assume this will be here and I’ll have an account in ten years?
