I’m fairly certain that war can’t stop elections in the US, from a constitutional standpoint.

Eh?

This is the opposite of good advice. “You could just trust them” on signing a legal contract with extreme differences between the stated terms and the written terms? Would you do the same for a divorce?

Best thing != best tasting thing

Sadly there are many users who are all in on the AI bullshit, so that likely won’t happen until after the bubble pops.

The Legend of Zelda was a game I absolutely loved as a kid. I could never get much past a certain point but never really knew why. I’d look everywhere, do everything I knew I could do, but always got stuck.

Years later I looked up a walkthrough out of curiosity. Turns out you can burn down bushes in the overworld with the candle. I don’t recall this ever being mentioned or even hinted at as a thing you could do. I was unable to progress because one of the dungeons was locked behind one of those bushes.

I feel the need to point out that water cooling has an upper limit as well. If you get things hot enough, the water is going to flash into steam, at which point it’s going to decimate whatever system it’s in.

You can add additives to prevent that, but at some point it’s no longer “water”.

Reading this back, I suppose this is pedantism. But still.

I mean, it definitely got Lemmy frothing at the mouth.

I knew this would be here…

Look, I’m normally not one to defend M$ but this just isn’t the case. One dude who was on stage for something else, who yes worked for M$ but isn’t PR or anything, made that statement as an offhand comment. The press ran with it, as they are wont to do.

Bottom line is, M$ never claimed W10 was their last os. It was “just some guy”.

Except that won’t be able to get over the main hurdle of “bad internet means bad OS”.

Lmao, no.

They don’t want users using this, it would be a mess. M$ would need to provide consumer facing OS support if they ever tried it, which is something they’ve vehemently refused to do for decades. It would also lead to their OS being blamed as the problem when the internet is having issues. Not to mention the consumer market isn’t really where they get their revenue from when it comes to OS sales.

They want enterprise subscriptions. End of story. Enterprise subs mean there’s an enterprise IT team involved, to at least a bare minimum extent.

They aren’t likely to want end users on this pretty much ever. It’s virtually all downside for them.

I appreciate you mentioning this.

The point miner specifically was of little use to me, but it had never occurred to me that an application could authenticate and then just pretend to watch things. This lead me to the twitch drop miner, which seems to be exactly what I’m looking for.
