  • Microsoft gave FBI a set of BitLocker encryption keys to unlock suspects' laptops: Reports | TechCrunch

  • It doesn't take a million shell commands or sketchy scripts to deploy Windows without a Microsoft account. I literally did it just last week. I think you are being pedantic and moving the goal posts, the claim was that you need a Microsoft account to use Windows and that is not true. You may be coerced into using one depending on the version and install method but that's not the original claim that was made.

  • You do understand that official setup requirements is not the same thing? Whatever Microsoft tries to force during a setup process doesn't change the fact that I am literally using Windows multiple times per week without any Microsoft account so claims it's impossible are untrue.

  • You inflation adjusted a number that was already inflation adjusted. Whether they are a tankie is irrelevant.

  • This is insane. I am using Windows without a Microsoft account regularly. It is 100% possible. I hate Microsoft too but it's completely ridiculous to go around spreading obvious bullshit like this.

  • It would be nice if that was a choice but SMS is unavoidable.

  • This is not correct. You can use Windows without a Microsoft account.

  • This is such a weird response. You are really making yourself look bad here. Why can't you just accept that you inflation adjusted a number that had already been inflation adjusted? It's an easy mistake to make and not a big deal but instead you are coming back with this bizarre non sequitur ad hominem.

  • Gov. Newsom denied entry in USA House due to pressure from White House

    Jump

  • Those two statements do not mean the exact same thing. Trump being less shitty than Hitler doesn't make Trump good, you are definitely misunderstanding the saying. It's about trying to achieve goals, and the importance of knowing when you've maximized the achievement possible without ruining your chances of achieving the goal by pressing further. It doesn't mean "I can imagine something worse, therefore this terrible choice I do not want is now alright with me".

    Jump

  • I don't understand your Hitler example, it does not seem to be an example that fits the saying. How is Trump good to Hitler's perfect? Or is it the reverse? Either way doesn't make sense to me. Normally that saying is used in a context where someone is potentially getting some of what they actually want, because getting all of what they want is not feasible, and continuing to pursue all of what they want risks them not getting anything they want. In your example you seem to be using it like it means you get a choice of either a negative outcome or a worse negative outcome, which is not correct.

  • American democracy on the brink a year after Trump’s election, experts say

    Jump

  • That is not really unusual for the US, things like that have been going on long before 2014.

  • What do you think of the Singapore approach to drugs ?

    Jump

  • It's not about health or safety because if it were they wouldn't still allow the most dangerous and destructive drug to be sold, yet you can buy alcohol as young as 18. It's all about social control. Their preferred drug is legal even though it's the least healthy and most unsafe of the commonly used recreational drugs.

  • In addition to their long and ongoing history of being shit, NYT does a lot of good reporting and is also useful for understanding a specific kind of perspective. I think if you're reading diverse sources you will inevitably have to read the NYT if for no other reason than they are breaking news regularly and occasionally covering things that aren't really being covered elsewhere.

  • If the protests in Iran win/topple the government what will it look like immediately afterwards? Also what would be the good or bad about installing a monarchy again?

    Jump

  • Reinstalling the monarchy is almost certainly not happening. If it did I wouldn't expect the new gov to last, the monarchy lacks the popularity and infrastructure necessary for that to be successful. It's tough to say what things will look like if the current government falls but some kind of civil war is very likely I think.
