This is the same false analogy people make as to why Americans drive giant trucks to shift blame… it’s not the manufacturers who are pushing these cars to circumvent taxes, it is the users for demanding it.

Very few people actually like these invasive shit Microsoft pulls, but the vast majority either do not know about them, understand them or feel they have another choice. For example, I hate MS, I understand what dog shit this Recall feature is, yet my job will provide a Windows machine with it and I have no choice but to use it.

I am a nerd so at home I do have everything running on Linux. But for the majority of people that would be a unknown option or just an unobtainable one

This is not a good deal. First of all I highly doubt this mobo and CPU will be Windows 11 compatible so you’re out of luck there.

That’s a feature lol

For $373 you can find an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and mobo combo deal that will vastly outperform this Chinese CPU

Really? I’m actually asking because I don’t think you can get the amd combo you mentioned at that price. Also, we’d need to confirm the specs and performance. So far it would be just speculation

Less than $400 for mobo, cpu and fan is not expensive even if it’s a couple of gens behind

Exactly… I have regular buds for running and I hate them because they inevitably shift around a bit and , when I try to get them back in place, they start misinterpreting my touch with whatever touch command they were preprogrammed

These ideas sound nice in the brainstorming room but, in my experience, have rarely panned out in practice

So it can get to the Supreme Court and be overturned there?

Lemmy advice for someone struggling who really needs therapy for a harsh problem can definitely be worse than nothing

You need professional therapy, not “advice” from Lemmy

People, this is what bravery looks like… Not walking around Walmart with an AK 15 and a Sons of Anarchy shirt

Yeap I’m just saying it’s sadly all too common

I’m actually degoogling at the moment precisely because of all this

Sadly, that’s what we do with phones, cars, tvs, etc

Thanks for the answer and the link. I was unaware the link between Black people and fried chicken was derogatory… I assumed it was more cultural like Polish people and Perogies or British people with fish and chips

Asking because I don’t know, please don’t read into it more than that…

What’s the problem with chicken and watermelon? Other than not been a fancy food, it seems a step up from the pizza lunches we normally get

I understand there is a link (not a negative one, as far as I know) between African American folks and fried chicken… But as a Venezuelan native I would not be offended if my work served me Arepas as a celebration of anything related to me or my culture

Yes, that’s what MS thinks… Yet that’s not the case as I can successfully get the files off SharePoint to my PC and then email them

The issue is MS doing this on its own accord and without proper warning or way to permanently override

Thanks for the informative reply kind stranger

Then it’s just useless…

The blackberry was the exact opposite, it was an unpolished piece of ugly hardware that was, at the time, incredibly useful

Pretty tech that accomplishes nothing is akin to the garbage toy lights they peddled to kids in Disney… Just landfill e-waste

Wow, it sounds like a worse decomacry than our first past the post shit in Canada

I mean, imaging getting the same hated head of state no matter who you vote for

I think the point is that “it isn’t” if people are clamoring on the streets for an election that never comes.

I guess we’ll see what happens next

Hey everybody, only this guy’s problems are the important ones … so forget what you are concerned about and just listen to this guy

Lol, you think MS is watching and will give a treat for being such a nice little follower?

It doesn’t make my life any better as those links never work.

If it works for you fine, don’t need to be offended like I insulted your girlfriend
