So, if I type a "Y" in Comic Sans and use it as a logo, I will have a billion dollar company?

Did you know that X Corp. has a website for their hamster business as well?

To be fair, he may actually be a democrat, just a historic one. Their 'roles' were kind of reversed compared to today until somewhere in the last century if my outside knowledge of US political history serves right.

Especially not for such enragingly artificial hardware requirements. Any computer able to run 64-Bit Win XP would probably run Windows 11 just fine if Microsoft hadn't decided to build instructions that only work on recent CPUs into the kernel specifically to make it not run on older hardware.

Rain water? Seriously? God knows what's in there. I truly build my water from source by burning pure hydrogen with pure oxygen.

It's one of the reasons my next phone will be Android (with a non-spying custom ROM) instead of an iPhone. Although KDE Connect is already surprisingly powerful on the latter given the limitations of the platform.

How dare anyone call it data caps? Almost everyone has unlimited¹ data!

¹ High speed data available up to one nanobyte of traffic. Speeds reduced to 1 bit/year after the high speed volume is used up. Pictures of domesticated llamas do not use up high speed volume.

And now you've got carmakers looking to charge by the month for features.

When I reach the point at which I am forced to buy a car like that, I'd just find out from where the feature gets controlled and hack in my own controller and a good 'ol switch.

I suspect most people that only use their Windows computer for general stuff like web browsing, e-mail, multi media, office etc., which is probably the majority by far, will actually fall for the subscription scam.

The category filters of electronics distributors used to be good (some still are). But then they started letting business people categorize the products, and now finding stuff without having a part number is basically a lottery.

That looks easy enough even for me to play it

So we're gonna have to start using Tor against censorship in the so-called 'civilised' world as well.

Probably the natural law that every online community turns incredibly toxic eventually once enough people join it.

Wouldn't it be more like Android/Linux (or Android plus Linux) because it only has a small fraction of the GNU software / libraries but still uses the Linux kernel?

Serious question: Why do you use Chrome, a browser made by the world's largest advertising and spying company, when you give the slightest f* about privacy?

At least use Ungoogled Chromium if you're not gonna switch to something actually privacy-focused. Basically the same functionality, but without Google's spyware.

Couldn't M$ make corporations deal with it anyways? It's really not like they could just switch to Linux or Mac with their very specific BS piece of software of which every company has their own that runs on Windows only.

At some point, it will just be repost bots having conversations in the comments of posts "created" by other repost bots.

Das machen in letzter Zeit extrem viele, oft auch einfach mitten auf der Fahrbahn. Ist das die nächste Pandemie?

I've gone to use the internet basically only on real computers and throwing a whole arsenal of annoyance and tracking blocking measures at it. The 'vanilla' internet experience has just become utterly unusable. If I use it on mobile, I do so in Brave as it is the only iOS browser that lets you use uBO filter lists and is able to fool websites into thinking you're on desktop.

(4*baby elephant weight)/(washing machine weight) = (4 * 110 kg) / (70 kg) ≈ 6 washing machines
