Microsoft Is A Corporation That Turns Updates Into Chaos

The eternal toxic relationship between gamers and their GPUs. Left side: A stoic gamer professing love to his graphics card, only to be brutally rejected. Right side: The NVIDIA GTX 1080 begging for sweet release after being pushed to render yet another poorly optimized AAA title at max settings. That GPU is literally screaming "I was designed for Minecraft, not whatever ray-traced monstrosity you're trying to run at 4K." Meanwhile, the gamer keeps whispering "just one more frame" as the cooling fans hit jet engine decibels.

The idea is to get the GUID of the assembly that's executing and to create a GUID based on that, so now you can only run one copy of it. 2 17 20 M 650 1 foone Foone 15 Std. But it's wrong The GetTvpe0 part isn't supposed to be there. That gets the type of the assembly, not the assembly itself. And that type is System.Reflection.RuntimeAssembly, part of NET itself. 0 2 17 29 1.005 foone Foone 15 Std. So what happens is that both of them are creating a global mutex to ensure only one copy runs, but instead of basing the GUID on their own code, they're both using the GUID of a part of NET itself.

The duality of Windows 11 resistance! On the left, we have the principled gamer with their Intel i7-4790K processor, smugly refusing to upgrade because "the UI is garbage and AI is spyware." Meanwhile on the right, the exact same gamer is secretly thinking, "My 10-year-old CPU doesn't meet the TPM requirements, and I'm too broke to upgrade my entire rig." It's the classic tech enthusiast dilemma - publicly criticizing design choices while privately dealing with the harsh reality of obsolescence. Nothing says "I'm making a principled stand" quite like having absolutely no other choice.
