That’s ageist. I maintain my god given right to lie about being the oldest person on earth.

Correction the ghosts are AI and based on how many times they killed me clearly a step above anything mainstream today (º ﾛ º๑).

Even more reason for me to not go back to this dump.

I mean buying a usb, installing imaging software, not messing up the drive your try to create the installer on. That’s already a lot harder than most tech illiterate people that just need to buy a computer.

Gen-z will technically be entering its thirties soon :P

Fake news. We’re still in the year 2018 and I’m stayin 18 forever. Σ(’ ε 'oﾉ)ﾉ

Well installing it. That alone requires a challenge most folks probably couldn’t overcome easily. People are accustomed to just getting a computer with a working os on it. Changing that os would be pretty hard for them.

I kinda wish we could go back to the world of people hosting their own servers and having subsets of their homedirs on ftp urls. Of course none of that is really approachable to a lot of a people :-(.

Hah, you clean your clothes. What a low socio economic peasant. I just throw them away when they get old. /s

I hate ads but their designed to be shown to people and intentionally using bots to inflate ad views is very clearly fraud. Silicon valley had something similar with bot farms to fake user engagement to take in VC funding. You take money in exchange for some kinda engagement metric which you’re faking.

I imagine quite a few folks have done this. You don’t hear about everyone that got away with it but you definitely hear about those that get caught.

Out of curiosity this wouldn’t be automatically supported right? Like you’d need the os or dependent libraries to know about these special chips and take advantage of them for things like encryption for example. Is it common to define tailored hardware for this kind of functionality or is this intel trying to setup a very tailored mass market appeal product for laptops.

I couldn’t find any clarification in the article but in guessing these are still x86_64 and from the description it seems like they’ve stacked a lot of different components into a single CPU core. Normally both those things would make it a big powerhouse so I’m not sure how it’s going to beat arm on baterry which competes by having a smaller simpler ISA that doesn’t need as much resources or complexity to process.

The key point here was 18.5 million in unpaid fines. If you wanna move the goal posts to liquidating related assets that’s fine, but you said due process has been skipped when very clearly due process was followed, musk ignored it and pretended to be above the law like he normally does, musk got his company banned.

Elon just wouldn’t pay and sueing generally ends in a fine which Elon would again not pay. Eventually a blanket ban is the only effective solution if a company refuses to get along.

Nevermind the decades of these sites compensating for studios just not giving a sh*t about making their content accessible to the rest of the world.

Didn’t 5h3y just release an update that bricked dual boot installs. Something tells me someone else should be organising this. Someone that actually cares.

Ports? Hah, they’ll send it straight through https if they want. To the base Microsoft domain so you can’t block without basically disconnecting your install. Objectively that’s what any security conscious user should do.

Heroic also makes it effortless, but I agree with all your points.
