I think that it’s absolutely fair to jump on Microsoft for this.
There is nothing wrong with this hardware. RAM and CPU clock speed plateaued a long time ago. The overwhelming majority of these systems being thrown away would run Linux flawlessly.
Microsoft has never given a damn about security before. These new security “features” do more to lock people in than they do to keep them safe.
If a candidate were foreign born, they’d be ineligible. If they were under 35, they’d be stricken as well.
We have rules regarding eligibility. If you break those rules, you’re no longer eligible.
If a state court removed a candidate because they discovered that they were actually a Canadian citizen, removing them from the ballot isn’t “deciding” who we’re allowed to vote for. It’s applying the rules.
Find yourself a partner who cares as much about your genitals as Evangelicals and you’ll never be lonely.
They make a good triple point.
«I’ll see myself out»
I stopped caring several years ago.
It’s like when Disney bought Star Wars. They homogenized it to make it more palatable and ended up making it dull and unappetizing. Neither franchise has a soul anymore. Just a formulaic plot with a set of waypoints in a dull 3 act format. Sprinkle in some in-humor, pedestrian jokes, and a special effects budget that would make the Pentagon blush and you have a recipe for dull tripe.
My off the cuff thought is that it may be used to change the content on the tags. Show it a specific QR code and it updates the content.
They cynical side of wants to believe that it’s being used to gather shopping analytics and correlate it to facial data.
Can I expect similar protections for The Satanic Verses, or is this another instance of religion being afforded a special status with the power to control non-adherents lives?
I always get the two mixed up.
An America-centric one. I’ve stopped tipping altogether. When the credit card reader at my grocery store deli suggested 15% I snapped.
I’m doing my part!
64Tib from the Tumblr and Reddit pornageddon. Most was legitimate cultural archiving, but a lot of other stuff got caught up as well.
Base 60 was good enough the Babylonians and it’s good enough for me!
From a human experience standpoint, Fahrenheit is more meaningful than Celsius.
0°F - Too damned cold 100°F - too damned hot
0°C - Jacket weather 100°C - He ded
Old archaeologist joke:
Q. Why are the Great Pyramids in Giza?
A. Because they wouldn’t fit in the British Museum.
In my CRV I’ll often initiate attack plan omega.
And this hits another topic…
Emotional expression is culturally derived.
A raised eyebrow can mean very different things to different groups. Giving a thumbs up in Turkey or an okay sign in northern Africa will have radically different messages.
I seriously hate emojis.
They tell me nothing except that the sender is too lazy to give me a hint.
They say that history is written by the victors.
But what the idiots in charge of Florida, Texas, et al. forget is that it can only be written by people who have the ability to write.
Ordered the iFleshlight. Looking forward to seeing the jealous looks I get at the coffee shop.
I’ll be reporting this to Ambassador Porthos! You can expect some urination on anything sacred you own.
The DLC was incredible.
Mayor Burt “fucking” Reynolds.
It’ll only affect 32bit systems with ancient operating systems storing dates in epoch time.
Not a small number. But nowhere remotely near what Y2K could have been.
Hopefully by the time we need to account for a 64bit rollover, I’ll be comfortably retired. But by that time, proton decay may be a more worrisome problem.
