  • Shooter guy was ... fairly skilled

    Lol, not really. Hitting a bullseye on an 8 inch target is stupid easy at that distance with a rifle.

    Either his sight was not properly set, or he was not very good with it. Or maybe both.

    Who knows. Glad he sucked. It's just a shame his missed shots hit people.

  • Well you don't understand what "net" means.

    It doesn't mean literally zero. It means colunm A and column B average out to zero.

    To acheive a real net zero, they have to save energy somewhere else that takes that column past 100% (Such as if their solar panels produce more energy than they use during certain times.)

    They probably just make some shit up to say their are saving extra somewhere they aren't (so to that point, yes...credits are bullshit.)

  • The GameCube absolutely spanked the Dreamcast and PS2 in terms of performance

    But the PS2 demolished the GameCube in sales. Thet outsold them about 8 to 1. So that just makes it another example of the high end hardware NOT helping their sales like the comment you replied to was saying.

  • Kagi isn't a competitor to Google because search engine isn't Google's product.

    Collecting user data and monetizing it is Google's business product, and they are far and away ahead of any other "competition".

    They don't even need the search engine anymore to collect user data. They have millions of people using Chrome, watching YouTube, using Gmail, using an Android phone...etc

  • I know exactly how it works. I use it every day. I never said it isnt easy. I said it's more steps to set it up.

    Rufus: run exe, pick iso, run it

    Ventoy: run exe to install it, run it to configure the drive, copy ISOs over to the drive

    For setting up a drive that's going to be used repeatedly and continually changing what's on it, Ventoy is the superior tool.

    For a one time use to quickly get a ISO over to a USB... Rufus is quicker and gets the job done.

    ...and again...OP already has Rufus in hand. There's no reason to get another piece of software that doesn't offer any advantage to OP's task.

  • Ventoy is great, but....

    1. It takes a few more steps to setup than Rufus, and you still have to set the right boot mode
    2. The tool OP already has should work so there's no need to send him to download another piece of software if he can complete the task with what he has.
  • UNetbootin stopped being useful a long time ago. Rufus is OK as long as you set it up right.

    Partition scheme: MBR

    Target system: BIOS or UEFI

    File system:FAT32

    Then in the BIOs setting on the HP go to advanced and set "Legacy Support Enabled". Save and exit.

    Smash the F9 key repeatedly during boot to pull up the boot menu. You should see your USB device listed to pick and boot from.

  • If this lets you monitor the patch status of the end clients in your org, then it's actually cheaper than existing solutions used for managing regular Windows updates.

    The only questionable part is how reliable, trustworthy, and secure is 0patch themselves?

    Allowing a third party access to patch system level files opens the risk of a rootkit install. (In fact their agent being able to access system would function much like a rootkit itself).

    They could easily backdoor something into thousands, or even tens of thousands of PC very quickly. Make a huge botnet, steal data, etc, etc.

    Assuming they are trustworthy themselves, if their security is compromised, either from hackers or even a rogue employee, the same results could happen and could take a long time to discover.
