Will joe biden end wars?

Will nancy pelosi stop insider trading???

It may be a naive thought, but can we see here that Microsoft is releasing more and more parts of Windows as open source?''

Microsoft is making small parts of their code open source because they fired all their OS testers 4 years ago.

No. Their entire company's profit model is based on things not being open source. In fact they rent out windows with a monthly fee now, you can't even just buy it

THEY still sell windows somewhere.

But will people pay that much for PublicOS? I dont think its worth a dollar.
