With two Boeing whistleblowers dead in one month, either Boeing is actively killing them, or there are enough whistleblowers that this rate of death is not statistically significant

  • Let me guess, suicide by 17 gunshots to the back of his head? In his car in a hotel parking lot?

    • Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our unshittified experience

    Jump

  • 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.

    • If you see me on street.... Please do not approach me

    Jump

  • 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?

    • Windows 10 is the last version of Windows

    Jump

  • The only reason I still have Windows are a few games that don't work properly on Linux (via Steam Proton) yet.

    I will keep Windows 10 until Steam no longer supports it or all my games run well on Linux (I check for that occasionally). IDGAF about no longer getting security updates as I have moved everything except for those few games to Linux years ago.

  • 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.

  • Claw-Yee!

    • Shitty digital door(ule)

    Jump

  • Any store installing that crap (it fortunately hasn't arrived in my country yet) will lose me as a customer. I know it won't hurt them, but I'm not dealing with shit like that.

    • Jrive in style

    Jump

  • I'm completely out of the Joop, what is going on with all those jeans themed posts?

    • Let them warm up for a minute

    Jump

  • Light a candle or smoke a cigarette for increased warmth.

    • For context, texas is a state roughly the size of texas

    Jump

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

    • AI discovers that not every fingerprint is unique

    Jump

  • DNA matching is the only forensic science that's worth a damn, and only if it's done correctly.

    And even that one is useless in case of identical twins.

    • It happens 🤷

    Jump

  • At that point I'd just get rid of Windows entirely. I used to have it on my laptop, and the updates it installed after booting for the first time in months broke networking. I never used that install so I decided to use the storage space for more sensible things.

    • It happens 🤷

    Jump

  • The same applies for the other way around when I need Windows for something.

    I apparently magically attract computers with a horribly slow UEFI so it takes a while to reboot regardless of the OS.

    • Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

    Jump

  • 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.

    • silent rule

    Jump

  • That looks easy enough even for me to play it

    • One OS to rule them all, one OS to find them, one OS to bring them all and in the light bind them.

    Jump

  • 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.

    • Reddit is removing ability to opt out of ad personalization based on your activity on the platform

    Jump

  • If their spying algorithm is as easy to fool as Instagram's, that wouldn't be a major concern if I still used that bad fediverse clone.

    • Even as an over-packer, it happens to me.

    Jump

  • I have one backpack I use for everything. I usually keep a 65W USB A+C charger and a 45W Powerbank with a small assortment of cables in there.

    Now of course I have multiple USB-PD chargers and powerbanks, however all of those mysteriously disappear when I need them, making it necessary to use the backpack ones at home and being the clumsy dork I am, I always forget them there reducing the backpack charger count to zero. And guess when I come into a situation where I desperately need to recharge \ on the go?

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

    • Twitter, Reddit, Unity, Blizzard... who else?

  • 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.
