Oh hi there person who I've upset by expressing my opinion who is now wanting to go back through my post history to find something to use against me! If you're reading this, it's because you've already lost the argument :)

  • Report: Microsoft quietly kills official way to activate Windows 11/10 without internet

    Jump

  • Windows doesn't need to be activated during the OS installation, so that's not relevant.

    Also Windows doesn't need to be activated at all for 99% of people's uses of it.

  • I don't think you understand what freedom is. Freedom doesn't mean you can just do whatever you want with everything you want.

    It's 2026. The internet is a core part of the world and pretty much everyone's life. It's not going away. Everyone who is buying a windows 11 computer has internet access almost all of the time, everywhere they go. Complaining about needing internet to activate a software license for digital software is pathetic - especially for Windows that doesn't even need to be activated for most people.

  • ‘A nation of rich cowards’: Australia needs its dreamers but the arts are underfunded, undervalued and despised

    Jump

  • "The arts" really just..........aren't very important. Definitely not important enough to be supplemented with taxpayer money. If artists can't make enough money to support themselves, that should be a sign.

  • Meta says it shut down nearly 550K accounts in Australia to comply with its under-16 social media ban, including 330,639 Instagram and 173,497 Facebook accounts

  • They must figure that's enough to get the government off their backs, cause that's absolutely nowhere near all of them.

    1. Why shouldn’t you have to? Because you say so?
    2. Companies use the internet to manage their devices and communicate, so it’s not an issue.

    There are many simple and easy solutions to your problem, you just don’t want it to be solved because you want to complain.

    lol PCs and laptops don’t need to be “dragged” anywhere. They’re not bookshelves, they’re tiny and light.

    So when you buy a new computer you set it up for the first time in your house instead of your shed. You only have to activate it once. Correction - you don't even need to activate Windows.

  • But “phone records”, whatever that means, won’t show telegram/imessage/signal/fb messenger/etc messages.

  • 'No one verified the evidence': Woman says AI-generated deepfake text sent her to jail

    Jump

  • “Text” is almost always used no matter what actual messaging service was used.

    Also how would AI have sent a SMS to his phone from her? It was likely an ai generated screenshot of messages.

    There’s no such thing as child porn

    There definitely is, and it falls under CSAM. Pornographic material isn’t by definition only adults.

  • Punish people that spread pornographic deepfakes, don’t try and censor the product that people used to make them.

    Should photoshop be banned?

  • It’s 2026, when are people going to stop whining about things requiring the internet? Who on earth would this change actually negatively affect? Who is buying Windows 11 but doesn’t have the internet? No one.

  • Pebble Round 2 Announced

    Jump

  • The price is absurd as well, especially with that warranty.

    I’m going to sit and watch how they do for a year before considering buying one. My Apple watch is nearing EOL with the crowns push button only working like 25% of the time, so will be on the lookout for a replacement.

  • oi mates wtf is going on over there

  • Solar is highly unreliable, requires endless mining of non renewable materials, takes up insane amounts of space to make the same power as any other method, requires endless manufacturing (and disposal) of batteries that are also made with mined non renewable, toxic materials that end up in landfill, and the cost of transmission infrastructure needed are in the trillions.

    Nuclear as the backbone, topped up with solar, is the only realistic way to the fabled “net zero”.

  • Leaked plan to limit blocking of abortion on moral grounds

    Jump

  • 💯

    Life saving surgery in terms of an abortion is when the mother could die if she doesn’t have an abortion. The first link I found says that less than 2% of abortions are for the mothers physical health or life saving: https://www.hli.org/resources/why-women-abort/

    Saying abortion is “life saving surgery” is pretty much a complete lie. Only in very, very rare circumstances is it true. Pro-abortion lobbyists and activists need to stop using it as an argument and focus more on how it can ruin a child and parents lives if it’s an unwanted pregnancy, because that is something that is plainly evident for all to see. The chances of anyone on here even knowing someone who has had to have a “life saving” abortion is next to nil.

  • Nvidia are currently selling 95% of the consumer gpus that are sold, and have been for a long time.

    Steam hardware surveys also aren’t good for getting exact numbers either. They’re good for trends and big picture stuff, like “Nvidia gpus are the overwhelming favourite among steam users”, but 80% in there could be 60% or 90% in the full world - and we know from sales numbers it’s not the former.

  • Pulling numbers out of thin air

    No, 95% is Nvidia market share.

    20%+ difference is massive. 10% is massive to many pc players.

    and so are lots of people

    Just a drop in the ocean compared to the number of people who are happy gaming on windows, and these differences are making sure that Linux isn’t gaining any significant ground. Nvidia may as well be the only player in the GPU market, and with how poorly their gpus work on Linux, it’s a huge problem for Linux.

  • What a load of bullshit, sorry but it has to be said - especially with regards to Gabe Newell lol. Have a look at the net worth of everyone that works at valve.
