So, you're telling us how to use this?

Who died and made you God?

Car insurance isn't efficient nor effective. It's a complete ripoff.

Go file a claim, see how much grief they put you through. Every claim I've ever made, I've had to file a complaint with the state insurance regulators to get my insurance company to reimburse me (and I've never been at fault).

Insurance is the problem for both cars and health. They artificially inflate pricing for both, because they get to determine what is paid and at what rates (especially for health care).

It's why you hear stories of things like tylenol at the hospital being $10 a pill. Since insurance may only reimburse the hospital at 10% of the filed claim, the hospital increases the cost 10x. (It's more complex that this, it's why medical coding is a specific job now, finding ways to code things to get sufficiently reimbursed).

Yea, fuck him - he's just an ass.

People who grew up with him can probably attest to this.

Yea, it's really shitty.

Enterprise folks don't have this problem because they use the WAIK (or whatever it's called now) to customize the installer.

Anyone can use it, and from what I've read, the Win10 generation of the kit is much easier to use than previous versions (which were pretty bad).

But yea, this stuff is awful.

Checkout things like WinDebloat, Privatezilla, Winaero Tweaker, and LoveWindowsAgain. There's some overlap between them (as they were built for different purposes), but they all pretty much kill telemetry at the service or installed level (as in remove the components providing telemetry).

Yea, it's BS you have to do this. And screw MS for this crap.

Hahahahaha

Unintended consequences - what are they going to do once 90% of connections are encrypted, include use of VPNs and encrypted DNS?

This is what they're promoting.

Host your own encrypted DNS on a VPS in a non-compliant location, use a VPN to connect to it.

So many ways these idiots are cutting their own throats.

Also, let's list the companies rather than say "Movie Industry". Or let that be a link to a Wiki article listing all the companies and their holdings.

Fuck em all at this point. I go to maybe 2 movies a year, at most. And I'm cutting subscription services, down to 2 at this point.

I have a dozen that run 12+ hours a day. I've had 1 fail in 5 years.

Don't buy cheap LEDs, and don't put them in enclosures that trap heat.

So let me get this straight. It replaces Calibri, but nowhere on the page is a visual comparison of the two.

It seems like something you'd put right at the top.

Streisand strikes again.

Roku has patented a way to ensure I will never own one of their devices, and I'll do my best to ensure no family or friends do either.

Every device booting from UEFI is vulnerable. It's neither a Windows nor Linux issue, it's UEFI.

Because UEFI has Code-execution capability before OS loads. In this case it's for the logo

"You're too dumb to understand so we make decisions for you"

Fuck that condescending prick with a pineapple.

Yea, pizza places have gotten out of hand in recent years.

Adding a delivery fee (which doesn't go to the driver) from locations that only do delivery.

How about fuck you and your delivery fee. Which is why I refuse to have pizza delivered any more. Plus they invariably get lost, though we're a few hundred yards from their store.

Little Seizures sells the same pizza for half the price, or less, than Papa John's, before those fees are tacked on.

The number of people who will leave windows over this stuff is trivial.

Apple has practically zero presence in enterprise (where one company can have 60,000 computers), and also practically zero in SMB.

Business software is written for windows. Even trying to use a Mac with the most basic office software is challenging - even if the exact same product exists in both.

People aren't flocking anywhere when their work machines are windows. Damn few people can be bothered with learning 2 ways to do things, especially when they're not interested in computing. I've been at this since before Mac existed, and while I can use OSX or iOS, I'm not wasting my limited learning time on something I rarely use, and can't really integrate with much of the rest I use.

Now let's look at some other arenas:

Legal - they all use a small set of document apps (which until recently was wordperfect), and some legal database apps. None of the database apps run on Mac as far as I've seen.

Engineering - there are practically no CAD apps for Mac. Some do exist, but again, even the ones that are on both Windows and Mac are problematic at best on Mac, typically unable to integrate with the back end.

Most people don't have the bandwidth to learn a new system just to avoid the shitty part of Windows (which only affects home users anyway). It takes less effort/time to figure out how to mitigate the Windows issues than to deal with a completely new system, that will also have issues integrating with other stuff they already have.

What gets me is when websites don't work on Safari. Really? Like a significant portion of traffic is to iOS, it's a single browser you have to target, on millions of devices. And you couldn't even make it work there.

Web dev today is a bunch of crap.

Yep.

I've already run into a few. I mentally thank them for preventing me from wasting my time and money with them.

Right?

To whom is this not obvious? Top talent has options.

And a supposed adult at 21...

What went wrong is anon never grew up - he's still 13

There's a check box in FF settings to block all third party cookies.

You should probably educate yourself before making inaccurate claims.

Oh, no, I can't use the McDonald's app!

Can't remember the last time I spent money on McDonald's over priced crap.

And get caught on everything.

I can't be bothered with the inconvenience of wires. Bluetooth quality is good enough for what I need it for, and the convenience of simply putting them on gives me sound is hard to beat.

I have a pair of noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones (not buds) from 2008 that still work. Battery life isn't what it was, but whatever - they work fine for how I use them (as one pair of several). I could replace the battery if I felt like it, just not worth the effort.

But I get that some people prefer the wired for their use-case.
