  • What... are they even doing with this

  • I wonder how they figure the 0.6% if those systems aren't sending telemetry via the internet. Is there an organization that does a hardware census or something?

  • Whether you agree that it has been effective or not is another matter, but there is legislative precedent to try and limit the access and advertising of some addictive things to minors.

    I would personally argue that there should be firmer boundaries as to what's allowed to be sold to everyone, but I think it's a very unpopular opinion. Where social media is concerned I don't think it is definitively addictive, but I would rather see a stronger computer literacy curriculum in schools that actually teaches about the dangers and pitfalls of the Internet.

  • If it's any comfort (it might not be), a few hundred thousand out of like 8 billion is a pretty small percentage. It's troubling that it evaded the law for long enough to accumulate that many users in one place, though :/

  • At least on 10 it is relatively simple to disable Cortana and forget it exists. I can't believe Microsoft is trying to make Copilot key a thing.

  • That's... kind of how addictive things work. Willpower alone is not enough to avoid them for some people.

  • wish kamala's campaign would run some attack ads about how the Republican speaker is refusing to provide hurricane relief to Republican states

  • Yeah, so you probably meant boot lickers. What you wrote was boot kickers.

  • The joke is that thumbs typically aren't referred to as fingers (yes I know they technically are), implying that the OP only has 8 digits.

  • Probably more of a "Do x, y, and z and we agree not to sue you about it"

  • Was that your first time or had you been using edibles for a while before that? I'm just curious because 10 mg is a pretty huge dose if you didn't have prior experience with the stuff.

  • I tend to avoid games that have that sort of anticheat already, but that looks very useful. Thanks for sharing!

  • "You only have Obesity I? Get on my level noob I have Obesity III"

  • Very relatable. Unfortunately we just don't live in a world where that's currently possible right now.

    I'm planning to switch to some Linux or other at end of support for W10. I'm hoping Proton will take care of most of the games I want to play, and a single-purpose Windows VM will take care of the rest, if that's not too big of a security risk to the host OS.

  • Maybe it would help you to read in an "at least" to those stats

  • Fuck WordPress, but also it kinda sounds like WordPress is more in the right here.
