  • If you care, then I guess you'll just have to keep giving Microsoft your money and data.

  • Not an unfounded concern if you remember the PS3. The original model was sold at a loss, and also able to run Linux.

    People were buying them like crazy for non gaming uses, including building super computer clusters. An entire aftermarket of various small vendors essentially flipping PS3s with various Linux distros flourished, including offering the usual suite of tech support services that Sony didn't. There was even a black market for the gutted bluray drives, which were expensive, but useless in clusters.

  • Obviously you should try to consider all options, but the amount that this is happening is way exaggerated.

    Europe in particularly is diverting a lot of funding away from public sector to defense spending due to geopolitical anxieties.

    International organisations aren't safe either, because they rely on funding from the developed countries who are all cutting funding, i.e. US, Europe, etc.

  • Big Tech truly did this to themselves. If Google hadn't enshittified its search, LLMs wouldn't have become nearly as popular, where so many people are using LLMs as search engine replacements.

  • No need to be convinced by some imaginary counterfactual - historians have already established that Hitler was incompetent, lazy, and his government did the same kind of stupid shit.

    Hitler was incredibly lazy. According to his aide Fritz Wiedemann, even when he was in Berlin he wouldn't get out of bed until after 11 a.m., and wouldn't do much before lunch other than read what the newspapers had to say about him, the press cuttings being dutifully delivered to him by Dietrich.

  • I like to call this the "professional" tone, because it's exactly what those in professions like lawyers, accountants, doctors, etc do, especially if they have problematic clients.

    Your job is to advise, not to actually change people. You really need to repeatedly ask them guiding questions. If they are unreceptive of authority, then you need to make them feel as if they arrived at the conclusion themselves (management consults are experts at this).

    This does not mean you need to be a pushover; in fact you need to remain calm, and firm.

    This is the approach that has been scientifically proven to work, most recently in convincing anti vaxxers.

    Someone in a profession with difficult clients described their job to me as basically being a babysitter for overgrown children, which I think is a very healthy way to mentally cope, process, and approach such situations.
