  • Windows 11's new AI feature makes it way too easy to steal everything you viewed or typed

    Jump

  • If it works well (and I mean very well), I will consider doing the same on my main machine. The one the family uses. Maybe just set it up so I boot both windows and Linux... Either way. Very happy with the results so far.

  • Back to this comment to report that I took the dive. I have a second laptop that wasn't getting used so I wiped it and installed Linux mint. Love it so far and no issues with any of the basics. Took me all of 1 hr to get up and running.

  • Maybe. I use Settings for quick things like Bluetooth pairing, changing monitor settings, etc. I do use Control Panel a decent amount and would never want it deprecated though.

  • GM & Ford Are Struggling With EVs Again, But Why?

    Jump

  • Yeah the expectations for a cheap EV in the US are insane. I want one too, but realistically I want a 30k EV that gets 300+ miles. There are a couple of close options today, but more competition would be great.

  • What EldenSoulsBorne boss gave you an embarrassing amount of trouble?

    Jump

  • Dark Souls 1 and it was Chaos Witch Quelaag. I don't know how many times she killed me, but it has to have been over 20. I got destroyed over and over again.

  • Jack Black axes tour over bandmate's Trump comment

    Jump

  • Interesting. I had no idea, thanks for the in depth explanation. So in this case it probably played no or very little role. Things are just often more murky than we make them seem when commenting online is more the general idea I was trying to convey.

  • How could you know this so definitively?

    Jump

  • Yes. Apparently a single senator from the above users comment.

  • Not like I understand Australian politics but one senator could be an influence.

  • It's noteworthy that it doesn't appear black canceled the tour just out of nowhere. I think they were getting pressure from the government based on what I've read.

  • Ford 'revives' the Capri after 30 years as a four-door EV

  • I have one and I just call it a Mach e.

  • America’s housing crisis continues to worsen, renters are struggling more than homeowners, report says

  • It's risk mitigation for the banks. You don't have to put 20% down, but generally you'll have to pay an additional insurance (PMI) if you don't.

  • I sure don't miss working in a bar.

  • My wife is over 40 fwiw. She doesn't particularly like being carded. She may have liked it in her late 20s or early 30s but not anymore.

    Just pointing out that it's subjective.

  • I sure don't miss working in a bar.

    Jump

  • It's very subjective. My wife kinda hates it. She's a good looking woman, but she certainly doesn't look like she's 20. She often doesn't carry a wallet - so if she's ID'd it can actually be annoying.

  • Microsoft is reworking Recall after researchers point out its security problems

    Jump

  • I have as well. I won't pretend I'm always right - I've thought some ideas that worked out incredibly were horrible. Also had the situation you describe happen. It's okay when you're working with reasonable people. Show them the slide deck, the email, the analysis, whatever... "Look you didn't approve this". "Here is an alternative ". That can work.

    Just telling folks "I told you so" isn't usually a great form of communication.

  • Internally people probably talked about how there were huge issues. Others probably said those issues are over stated and it's no big deal. They decided to release it and the press says there are issues. Then, the company decides there are issues. That simple.

  • Good to know and thanks for the tip. This was back when I did more on a personal computer, but I remember spending hours just trying to get software to work. Again, this isn't something I need to worry about today, but getting Octave (free version of Matlab) to work on Linux was a nightmare.

  • Don't disagree, it's just fascinating to see it all play out.
