I mean, there wasn’t an incredibly well documented, active genocide happening 8 years ago.

That has a lot of sway on public opinion.

Number pairs where the 1st and 3rd digit match or where the 2nd and 4th digit match.

Eg: 1315 or 4676

This will rely on having an executive team that can predict trends beyond the next quarter.

Doubling down on advertising, telemetry, and AI in an overly bloated OS looks really good if you only care about the profits that brings for the next 3 months, rather than how much your userbase resents it. MS is fully capable of turning this around immediately by just making LTSC available to the public without needing to buy a MAK through an enterprise channel, but that means throwing away some recurring revenue in favor of claiming a lost userbase

Basically any sitcom made for TV and not a streaming service.

The best way is to just backup to multiple locations and actively manage it. RAID at the backup destination is nice because it means that if a disk fails, you don’t immediately lose everything there. But if you have multiple places where that data lives then it’s not the end of the world to just re-create the backup.

If you want to get into true archival solutions(way more expensive than setting up a RAID) then you’re looking at things like M-Disc and LTO tape
