… 100 dead CPUs is news?

That’s about how many Cybertrucks arent dead (yet) overall … tho that isn’t a fair comparison to begin with.

Don’t get me wrong, if there is something to fix they should, and ofc RMA, but those feel normal numbers (the AMD thing I mean).

Well, I only know of one and you’ll need 12 angry men to pull it out.

Yo, I heard you like ads so we put ads in your ads.

Maybe ‘the same way windows is’ IBM-DOS

Soon to be closed-software Linux??? /s

Or wireguard, depending where & how they want to implement it might be simpler or better/worse on hardware.

People don’t say “install Windows”, they just want their PC to work. And if that PC isn’t for Adobe or kernel-level intrusive anti-cheat money-sucking games, there is no difference (except the spying).

Also the amount of maintenance with Windows after each update isn’t small (software like Shut Up Windows helps with regedits tho).

And most people don’t know what their OS even is.

But no, I’m not giving an iPad to people that want Windows :P.

Two bricks would be made in that case. >!In that PC case.!<

Since I’ve installed openSUSE Tumbleweed to everyone about 5 years ago I’ve actually done literally 0 tech support on that front so I’m superbly happy about that.

With Windows (albeit 7) there was always shit going wrong (not to mention XP before that which I basically regularly reinstalled). With various distros (Ubuntu & Debian mostly, but others too) there were frequent fuckeries of various flavours when upgrading.

I always install openSUSE without removing my buttplug. Or any extra USB cables.

I’ve done it to my family and friends over a decade ago.

Free tech support is for foss!

By 0.1 inch?

Thank you.
I much prefer it to the crude ‘flying cocks’ one.

Rocket designs are worm(-with-diarrhea)-inspired!!

Yes, I agree, it’s perfectly fine - jamming the door is more of a phobic anxiety.

Then again, 95% of such locks are prob vulnerable to simpler attacks.

Old locks can be brutal to keys, it’s what grinds the steel keys down & at some point even new keys don’t last as long.

You are right.

They are also about data security, so nobody can just erase, modify, or destroy/lose data. And all that applies to data handling and access as well.

This jams the lock! :D

Anything that logs all the communication.

Govs have their own apps, email servers, various other web-based tools to exchange data, etc. Usually also gov hardware (ie can’t use/access such gov apps on non-gov phones).

It’s not “what’s better” it’s what is mandated/required/the law.
Much like when you get a regular average job you have to use whatever is permitted - company email is the usual, can’t just deal with company data over your private email account where the company has no oversight.

Yes, ofc, using Signal was intentional to not keep any records/evidence.
