Microsoft counters with Notepad#.

TFS appears to be attempting to conflate the phone-buying habits of individual consumers with business hardware replacement cycles and productivity. It appears to be complete garbage.

I am left to assume this was shadow written by someone in the marketing department from some large tech company - e.g. Dell, Samsung, Apple, Google, Microsoft.

As an aside - it seems pretty wasteful (and pointless) to replace your smartphone even after 29 months, let alone every 22 months.

I do recall one lecture where the professor started by writing up a brief overview of stochastic processes on the whiteboard and then turned around to us, the first words out of his mouth were "don't panic, we can get through this"

The lecturer is there to read the room and be responsive to what's necessary to get the points across, otherwise may as well just read it in a book

Not that there aren't some great books that have been better than some lectures I've attended and for all I know AI can get to the point where it is responsive, and more than just broad-brush to the whole group, individually

Not if the party in question has been repeatedly caught concealing malice. You'd be a fool to trust, or even assume good will, when dealing with anything by Microsoft, NSA, Facebook, etc.

Here, we have something that looks bad and has been done by a prior offender. Thus, it needs to be viewed with suspicion by default.

I'm betting you used to get really worked up in those "hacker vs. cracker" arguments too.

And what's the deal with herbal "tea"?!

The preservatives are in the flour. I've made bread with unbleached, organic, non preservative flour. The finished loaves kept for about a week before the mold set in. The unused flour, not much longer.

Never again. When my doctor told me I needed more greens in my diet, I didn't think he meant mold.

How many TikTok "users" are completely passive, never posting and only viewing / listening? I'm guessing most of them.

Probably a good idea. Short selling and buying options are two different things. If you don't know how they work, best to stay away from them.

If you buy an option (put or call) you can just walk away from it, taking only the option purchase as a loss. (Selling options is a riskier undertaking.)

Buy put options.

Not so surprising that red-socialism and brown-socialism are almost the same.

yes, actually yes. I would do it differently though, I would use sodium and burn it in water to create the particulate matter, this would accomplish more than one goal, it would block a percentage point of the Solar energy and would percipitate into the ocean water deacidifying it. If done xorrectly, maybe as NaK alloy it can also be used to generate power while burning in water.

Not any different from using Windows without AI.
