Influencer says she was offered lots of money to endorse Trump. There, saved everyone the click.

Clerks was made for $37k, including Kevin Smith maxing out his parents credit cards, and earned $4.4M.

In Australia we have 95% vaccination rates and we haven’t had quarantine, testing etc rules in place for like 2+ years now. Everything is fine.

The US is sitting at around 80% vaccination rate. Therein lies the problem.

So, not so much “humans” as “some humans”.

“I loved Brokeback Mountain but find these John Wayne movies not to my taste”

Sounds like you like the setting - post apocalyptic - not necessarily the premise. Fallout is about the offbeat humour and violence. Silo is completely different (I loved Silo too).

I know pllllllllenty of people who don’t like Andor. They found it either “too Star Wars-y” or “not Star Wars-y enough”.

The world would be a boring place if we all liked the same things.

Yes MBFC is Extremely American in its definitions of left and right. A less US-centric rating would be much preferred.

I generally like the idea otherwise.

I’m thinking it’s “centre left” from an American perspective.

You’re thinking of Intel vPro. I imagine some of the Crowdstrike victims customers have this and a bunch of poor level 1 techs are slowly griding their way through every workstation on their networks. But yeah, OP is deluded and/or very inexperienced if they think this could have been mitigated on workstations through some magical “hygiene”.

If this were the case then “I fucked your dad” would be just as common an insult, with all the same connotations.

Australia uses kilopascals rather than PSI. Our standard is 500kPa which works out at around 72 PSI.

Go look at all the Windows PCs announced in the last few months and you will see they have NPUs. So again, why would we wait until it is too late to try to stop this nonsense?

Also the “AI” may run locally but it saves the info into an easily accessible and readable SQLite database in the users AppData. It will be trivial for malicious actors to access.

Do you think it would be a better idea to wait until it’s installed and active on every Windows computer before we start a discussion on how bad Copilot is?

I follow Kevin on Mastodon. He’s the real deal and is absolutely not interested in the clicks or outrage. He’s trying to make it accessible.

I am astounded at how easily you are flummoxed. Life must be a constant struggle for you. I’m glad you found a way to respond to a remark that was not made to you, nor about you, and that you did so with such aplomb. If I wore a hat, I would tip it.

Now, as an exercise, go and read it the way I did and tell me, honestly, knowing that the internet is full of barely coherent attempts at humour, could you, in any way, despite your mind bogglingly deep knowledge into the art forms of comics and memes, have read it the wrong way around and, for just a moment, a tiny moment, the tiniest of moments, have thought the joke made no sense? And now, look at the comment I replied to, and see if you can see the subtle context in which my reply was made. Well done, maybe you just learned something new today.

All they had to do was reverse the image so Bones’ question is obviously first. I genuinely thought Kirk’s statement came first. In what alternate reality is English read from right to left?

So along with all those positives you listed, the big negative being it’s a death trap.

This Fiat? https://www.euroncap.com/en/results/fiat/punto/15461

They are just being clear and accurate with their comms. No need to over think it.

I can’t tell if you’re being downvoted by dorks who don’t realise you’re joking or by dorks who DO realise you’re joking and feel attacked. Either way, sad, silly down voters.

The OP is re-tooting a toot of a screenshot of a tweet. My (mild) criticism isn’t aimed at OP, nor the OP of the OP, just the original Twitter OP. No one was “blasted” but even if they were, the Twitter OP is not likely to see my comments and have a bad case of the sads from it.

It wouldn’t have been installed at all if the OP did their job properly and had set the one config option. Microsoft doing shady things is hardly news. That’s why a good Windows sysadmin keeps and eye out for this sort of stuff.
