Holy mother of Adblock. Can’t even see. I’ll check this at home on my laptop.

You’re thinking of republican jesus.

One of many gifts given from billionaires, to billionaires, paid for by you! Thank you for your generosity. I’m sure they deserve it.

The biggest failure of the US is ultimately its educational system.

So far!

South Carolina

I had an internship 15 years ago where I was forced to write C++ with no internet access. I had to use a programming manual and man pages.

As a remedy, the NHSTA’s recall report notes, Nissan and Infiniti dealers will inspect the engine pan of these-now recalled cars — and repair or replace the engine if necessary.

But your shit quality process already admits that failure is progressive. What are you going to do for customers who get a failure years later because of your bad manufacturing?

Answer: nothing!

I love how in this timeline you can’t say it wasn’t ICE.

It’s just easier to be openly corrupt in this brave new country.

US dollar to zero speed run.

They didn’t care about them before either. It was just an excuse to perform horrible cruelty all along.

A VPN is fast becoming essential internet isn’t it?

A mere formality. He can just go ask the Supreme Court to declare that he’s not a felon or something. Does it make any sense? No, but does any of it?

Unironically, yes. That’s not nearly as common sense as you may think. There’s no such thing as idiot-proof steps. To some you may very well be a pro from that alone.

This makes sense. I have a friend from way back in HS who interned there while he was working on his degree who said that cloud services was the priority at the time, and Windows was more just a vehicle that they continued to maintain. That continues to be the approximate temperature of the product and is in line with my expectations.

I never understand this mindset because a person who is technically skilled like this is exactly the kind of person who wouldn’t struggle with Linux.

They’re already the kind of person who would be an excellent Linux user. I can only imagine that, for whatever reason, they’ve grown emotionally attached and are simply too stubborn to consider anything else.

Until the next re-bloating update where your settings get reverted and services re-installed.

Being good at de-bloating (as you may very well be to do that in a few minutes!) is an anti-skill that shouldn’t have to exist.

I could imagine a future where Windows is just a proprietary DE over a Linux system. I don’t think it’s coming anytime soon because of the development cost it would impose, but I don’t see why they would go to such efforts maintaining a system they could get for free if the desktop user base keeps shrinking. They’re just too greedy not to do that. Even the backwards compatibility with Windows software is becoming a solved problem.

Aside from my above rant, the PC is definitely fast becoming an enthusiast/business platform. I opened a retirement account the other day through my smart phone!

Precisely. Windows is a side project for Microsoft now.
