For the corporate elites and us gov so you can be targeted by ads and jailed and stuff, surely.

Weird, I don’t feel angry, if anything you probably got an eye roll out of me lol

Good lord, you expect everything to just be free? To expect you get basic needs at zero cost is a tad out of touch with reality. I get it, nothing is fair, but you are looking at this all wrong.

For your information I’m senior level in IT in a large organization and also own my own IT related business, and I deal with this stuff every day. You seem too naive to understand why this is no good. It’s not just about the performance.

It’s alarming how triggered you got, I would encourage you to visit a therapist. And I’m not trying to attack you here.

You were complaining about paying for things needed to survive. It’s nobodies problem but your own that you love in an apartment. The cost of that type of dwelling. Speaking of, you don’t need to live there either and pay for a mortgage or rent. You have the option to build your own shelter in the woods. But it’s pretty nice to not have to do that right?

So many are also ignorant to ToS on even basic things like tvs and baby monitors. There’s some next level creep in these things. Convenience over privacy, it’s scary.

Just in case you wanted to give more of your personal data to an AI company…

I feel like many people don’t consider the data they’re collecting on you, the user.

You don’t need to pay for either. Collect and treat your own water from a stream. Go hunting or foraging.

At the end of the day you are paying for the convenience to not have to do that.

Because knowledge is power.

But also it depends. Learn on the job is a thing too in some industries, and in some people can do quite well for themselves here.

It also costs money to make money, if you have a lot of it you can make it work for you and make even more than someone who doesn’t have it. This is why kids of rich ass parents get it so easy.

Sure, but perfect?

Ones not IP?

Good lord. Wait till you open a couple web pages or outlook. Let alone co-pilot lol.

User buys computer from you, 7.6GB/8GB RAM consumption on fresh boot with nothing open.

User cries.

No system is perfect.

Hurricane?

Same boat but there’s some moves happening lately that aim to change those laws

There are DOZENS OF US!

That’s why I’m waiting to invest in VR. It’s too closed and immature for my liking at the moment.

That’s incredible. I used to have a hard drive I lost years ago with tons of obscure stuff and I was never able to find a lot of it again.

Edit:

Nobody is concerned about privacy? Seems to work a lot like bittorrent, exposing your IP

TIL. I’m picky but not that picky. I’ll have to give it another shot.
