A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Lots of people missing the point here.

What if you had a tablet device that could go weeks without charging? It could handle basic tasks on its own, or more intensive tasks when connected to the internet?

Office 365 is a good example. Basic tasks of word can be handled by a cached web client, but if you need to do something more advanced and need the full version of word to run, the ARM architecture can’t run it so spin up a virtual instance and stream it to your arm device.

Windows 11 will have this baked in. It’s not a forced replacement of a local OS.
