588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”

The Windows kernel issue seems like something that could easily be resolved by Microsoft being required to develop capabilities that you can hook into the Windows kernel from an external vendor point of view and do so in a way that doesn't require any internal kernel manipulation. And the way to prove that out? Microsoft cannot implement any security measures that would be considered competition to other anti-virus or similar products other than through this capability. Then if they want to provide a reasonable security product themselves, they are running through the same loops as any other company would, and this provides a more secure environment for its users.

I have a nearly four years old Huawei smartphone. The battery still lasts two full days, the camera is great and the form factor is just perfect. Unfortunately, it no longer receives Android updates. Being stuck on Android 10, apps like Slack started to nag me about the end of support in a few months. So what does it take for me to change my phone? Probably just a few more decisions by tech leads, about how much time they want to invest in old Android versions. It's a shame that we live in a world where software dictates when my phone is "broken" and not the actual state of the hardware.
