  • different devices, some running locked Windows

    That unforgettable moment, when you stand before that machine where you should be able to self-manage that value-card for some prepaid money for some special purpose, and that machine shows you nothing but a good old bluescreen, and it is a bluescreen from a 15 year old Windows...

  • Mifrosoft now requires TPM on windows 11,

    ...and it is a preparation step for even mightier lockdown scenarios than smartphones.

    For your best, of course /s

    could they make "Secure Boot" mandatory for windows 12? (Thereby preventing a linux install)

    They have tried it in win11 already.

  • Each individual human would have been relatively quiet, but because there are a lot of them (potentially hundreds), they end up being, as a whole, loud enough

    This might happen because of "resonance" - but I don't know your specific scene.

    the noise of the quietest server seems to disappear whenever the loudest is running, so it kind of does blow my mind how our perception of noise works...

    The effect with the servers is called "sound masking" (and some other commenters have written about it), and how our peception works here is called "auditory masking" (nobody has mentioned this one so far).

  • First I tell them the proof to Fermat's theorem.

    (For those who aren't familiar with it: it originates from 1637, but nobody in the world was able to prove it until 1994. Therefore it was known among scientists and scholars in all the world during these centuries as one of the greatest riddles in history)

    I get world famous, instantly, with newspaper headlines everywhere.

    Mathematicians in all countries are able to verify my words, so I gain endless credibility, and I can travel to all kinds of places where they want to hear me speak etc.

    A little bit later they will find out that I am not that good at math. Well, not bad, but not good enough by far to find that proof. So there is the next riddle about me.

    Then I can tell that I am from the future. And since I have gained credibility before, they are going to listen now.

  • some risk left. Especially for cheap Chinese power blocks.

    You can leave away the "cheap Chinese". I have tried to find some of high quality once, and that was a super hard task. They are all the same as the cheap Chinese, whether it's written somewhere or not.

  • Its been a week, and I feel better, Im not sleeping as much, I look forward to exercise, I am much more physically active than before, but I dont feel like I look any different.

    One week and you already feel it. Keep that in mind. It is something.

    Five weeks here, about the same.

    I heard that it takes as long as for building it up as for tearing it down. I have also heard: the older the longer. So: not sure :)

  • but does that mean it's only when pointing at the LIDAR, and everything went back to normal when pointed somewhere else?

    No. It is written badly. They say after zooming out it was good.

    I can only imagine that this phone had several camera sensors, one of them got damaged, and with zooming out it switched to another one.

  • Edit: Given the previous rules that you must maintain a very modest lifestyle in a low-cost-of-living area,

    It said that I get money for such a lifestyle.

    But now you add that I must actually move before I even get that little money.

    You definitely want to clarify your "Question".

    would you rather choose to opt out and not have the money at all?

    No, I would still play that game, but maybe my way of spending would concentrate even more on those where I expect something back.

    you can continue to work full time and a half

    I don't have that.

    your basic ass lifestyle while not helping anyone.

    I don't have that either.
