You don't need to connect it to the Internet or use the built in OS for anything else than just navigate to your box. I just use my NVIDIA Shield for everything.
When it was introduced Teams was pretty bad but these days it works just fine. I don't see that it being a decider really more than just historical preference.
>"It looks like the IT security world has hit a new low," Torvalds begins. "If you work in security, and think you have some morals, I think you might want to add the tag-line: "No, really, I'm not a whore. Pinky promise" to your business card. Because I thought the whole industry was corrupt before, but it's getting ridiculous," he continues. "At what point will security people admit they have an attention-whoring problem?"
Sweden is relatively good at creating innovative companies but is pretty friendly towards small companies especially.
Europe does lag behind though for many different reasons. One big is that the single market of EU is on paper large but in practice it is a lot of different countries with very different cultures and languages.
It is very possible but then that system is not for you. These systems are incredibly complex already and while there will always be some customization you should question yourself if this is where your competitive advantage is?
Is Lidl earning more money than their competitors because they base their inventory management system on purchase prices while others do not? Then build/buy a system that handles that and it could very well be worth it if you look at the business case
But if it is like that because that is how we started out and we cannot quantify how much better it is...then maybe you should just change your process.
I won't disagree with you when you say they are horrible but there is also a difference between lets say the user interface of something you rarely use and something that is your job. I've never worked in SAP myself but I've seen others do things very quickly in that ugly user interface just because they have learned how to jump around quickly and what fields to fill in.
It might still be bad but for them it works pretty well after they have learned it. As a counter they think my writing commands in a shell as an incredibly bad interface while I think it is very efficient because I've learned it.
There are options these days like the inReach that I would recommend for hikers that will be out in the wilderness for an extended period of time and/or might be away from easy access to help. Of course standard protocol still applies like telling someone what path you will take, when they should expect you back etc. but I would feel much safer with an inReach with me just in case.
You had a similar spectrum auction with 5G recently and that got very expensive as well. That seems to be a problem in a lot of Europe and something the hardware providers like Ericsson complains about as that hinders the service providers ability to buy things from them because they spend so much money on the auction.
I don't think that is how they come about. It is about recruitment and ideals and how they spread not about being banned on other platforms. If they could discuss saving the white race with violence on reddit or hackernews nothing would change more than they would have more potential recruits.
It is absolutely not complicated compared to running Kubernetes yourself. You don't have to use serverless and infinite scaling. For things like Azure App Services you don't autoscale to start with and if you want autoscaling it looks like this:
