hp’s been pulling this same stunt for years to install their “telemetry” and other bullshit on desktops and laptops, even after a ‘clean’ install to a blank drive using microsoft’s installer

my guess is he’s delivering intel to assist with russian hacking of the midterm elections

nearing 1 of 100 is 99% short, is it not?

not ‘everyone’. i’m sure he’s getting all the assistance a drunk idiot needs to deliver whatever the fuck he’s taking there.

yea, i think so.

it loaded ok into a new tab here. just a vid. should play on any relatively-recent browser. here’s a frame grab:

the gnome foundation, however, is a u.s. organization, based in california.

semiconductor fab profits are also ‘abnormally high’.

it’s not FOSS (it is ‘free to use’ at home) or a ‘server’ application (it’s a windows application), but i just use mailstore home to create and update a local archive of a gmail account. its dot.net requirement is minimal (v4.8 or higher) but i have not yet tried to run it with wine, as i have a separate box that runs windows stuff.

this one would end up at sc®otus regardless of lower courts’ actions.

that whole family is off-the-rails, but with her reach, she could do a lot of good… but instead, this.

… at dipshit’s request, no doubt… remember he’s the one that literally begged russia to hack clinton during the 2016 campaign.

vital parts of jitsi are not multi-threaded, so a beefy machine with fast single-thread performance will be needed. but the network and bandwidth requirements will probably be an even bigger obstacle. going off their recommendations, it’d be at least 7.5gbps for 720p to 3000 participants.

Coincidentally, GameStop is also irrelevant to Games

this is the idiot that took down twitter when he yeeted racks out of a data center and threw 'em into a u-haul… ones that were still powered on and used by the site. so anything’s possible… but i don’t think even he would be so stupid as to release the algorithms or his special ‘tweaks’ to them.

why stop at just a ‘clip’?

it can be really dumb, but it can also be extremely useful for some things. i think that’s pretty much linus’ stance–and if you do use it, you are the one wholly responsible for what comes out of it.

it’s intentionally completely vague so users don’t know what they’re getting when they buy it.

‘s mode’ limits all application installs to store apps, which microsoft gets their standard fees for… plus all the sweet user data and tracking that comes along for the ride.

turning ‘s mode’ off (i.e. reverting to a standard install of windows) by ‘normal’ means requires installing a tool from the ‘store’ that requires a microsoft account to get, which then gets linked to your install and your pc… so they get your info one way or the other.

to get a true ‘microsoft experience’ he should have use a new laptop, one with windows 11 ‘s mode’ on it and only 8gb ram–since microsoft now claims that’s enough.
