I would think so.
It certainly got the longevity for it.
There's people who would still run it.
I mean, I'd still run it on stuff if you get security updates because it does 98% of what I need a Windows to do, but.
Personal preference or industry impact?
I don't know if it's a very apt description, but I think of it as crisp.
So it's not a lot of rough edges.
It does what it does.
It's snappy.
Well, I'm happy to ruin them for you.
Okay.
So it's ironic to me that I play slot machines because I know it's a losing bet overall, but there's a whole dopamine feast there of bright lights and high contrast colors that I enjoy.
So I do play them.
But what happens is internally, there's basically a black box mechanism that does nothing more than generate the next random number and what the outcome is in terms of probability and payout.
And then the game says, I got to make up a movie to go along with that.
And maybe it's three bars or whatever it is, but there's no correlation.
It's not spinning the reels, seeing where they land and looking that up to see what you won.
It's completely the other direction.
It determines whether or not, or if you won and then make something up to fit that scenario.
That indeed is ruining it for everybody.
