Isn't ReFS their newest file system, meant to replace NTFS?
Elijah Foster
SCREENSAVERS ARE REMOVED I REPEAT 3D PIPES IS DEAD.
Eli Williams
Also removed is TCP offloading. Now *Every* NIC is a Realtek NIC!
Thanks Microsoft!
William Johnson
Yep, I pray they finally fucking implement ext/btrfs/fucking anything that's a quarter competent file system and fucking kill ntfs
Samuel Gomez
You shouldn't be using ReFS on a normal desktop machine anyway so it totally makes sense to remove the formatting option from install on home and pro versions, it's very much a workstation (actual workstation, not "desktop" and server FS.
Parker Watson
AHAHAHAHA
WHAT
Nicholas Martin
Highly underrated Now I feel sad
Jaxon Cook
google kills entire services with the announcement being 2 lines in a blog post

Are you posting creators update features like it was something new?
Jayden Brooks
I simply can't believe MS is using a file system that is over 24 years old, and that their replacement was a "specialty" replacement.

Nobody uses TCP offloading because it fucks with a bunch of newer RFCs. Linux has never supported full offloading for example (only simple stuff like segmenting and checksum calculation).
Liam Sanchez
Besides actual good Intel/Broadcom NICs that aren't 1GbE consumershit
Asher Morgan
this is what i hate about Windows 10
You don't know if your shit is gonna be removed of deprecated in the """""""feature updates"""""".
I want to go back to Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 days, where if something worked in Windows 7 on relelease day, it would work for the remainder of Windows 7's lifetime. Maybe it would get removed in Windows 8.1 but you weren't forced to update to Windows 8.1 now were you?

Welcome to an OS as a service, rather than as an OS.
Charles Clark
The problem is that you end up with having to support two parallel stacks, and the NIC one is often even proprietary. This is the main reason why Linux never included support for full offloading. I don't know why Microsoft is removing their support if they had it in the first place, but I guess it's the hassle of having to deal with two separate stacks.
Ryder Garcia
TCP offloading is 99% all in the NIC's firmware, the only thing the OS needs is the driver to enable it.
Caleb Hall
No, because it fucks with IPsec and TCP SYN cookies, so even with it enabled you end up with a parallel stack where some connections (or most) are offloaded but a few aren't. This is a pain to deal with.
Wyatt Allen
How is this any different from any other hardware accelerated software stack? I know TCP is a mess as a standard but I see plenty of point in offloading it since high speed networking can choke some CPUs with pure bandwidth and interrupts.
Aaron Jenkins
In addition, there's also the issue with resources (RAM is usually a lot bigger than the the on-board memory of a NIC) and every NIC vendor implementing their stuff differently.
Hell, Microsoft wants to push DCTCP pretty hard for servers as well, and since DCTCP uses ECN congestion marking in a different way than originally, you need to have DCTCP support in your offloading engine.
Modern NICs don't issue per-packet interrupts anymore, they are able to aggregate packets. This is basically what large segment offloading (LSO) and receive segment offloading (RSO) is meant for, which are still -- I would assume -- supported in Windows (and has always been supported by Linux).
Hunter Jackson
LRO, not RSO.
Lucas Morales
If microsoft engineers and executors decide its not the best of special practice to make it to the next versioning of their system of supreme qualitat youre not herby granted the opportunity to lay harsh critisism on thy engineers take HEED so noone can see what youre saying with light grace because they read it all eventually so i hope you get it by now CAUTIOUS is emportent
Nolan Sullivan
This confirms it.
Windows 10 Pro Workstation is the real Pro and '''''''Pro''''''' Is the real home. I assume they did this so upgraders did not get the "Professional" version for free.

Who the fuck actually uses windows these days? Are you computer illiterate?
Brandon Peterson
tbqh refs is shit for desktop. no compression encryption or any modern features that exist in ntfs.
All it's good for is resiliency, and even then its still missing basic storage functions like dedup
