What is it that you want them to do? Barge into company offices and demand they "fix" their infrastructure? Bring court cases against companies under what law precisely?

Any "fix", seeing as companies and industries won't do it themselves, requires Congress acting. With this lot in Congress, there's no chance of that happening and even if they did, it would necessarily be high level. Even if they outlawed naughty company behavior of not securing their infrastructure, we do not have CyberCorps, able ferret out company infrastructure naughyness. We would have to wait until a company got nailed first before bringing them to court, and then spend the next 5 years litigating if it was a large company.

Not really, most of us use Macs because we find Windows a disgusting cesspool of GUI abomination. Linux GUIs are equally as bad.

They can always air "The New Beverly Hillbillies", watch as Jed and the Clan terrorize their neighbors in Beverly Hills, Jed does the L.A. porn stars (a new one every week), Jethro flummoxes the local pols with insightful logic, Grannie goes on a shooting rampage every Fri. night, and Ellie steals the neighbor pets for her new petting zoo. There will be plenty of shots of Ellie in the cement pond in a skimpy bathing suit luring old men in for "a swim". It will be a MAGA Wet Dream.

That's been the R's playbook ever since Reagan, i.e., knacker the Fed. Gov. and then whine incessantly about how the Fed. Gov. is not working, and then campaign on how the R's are doing it for "the American People". That they do not give a flying rat's ass about "the American People" shows up in how they allowed companies to screw "the American People" and then pass that off as "cutting regulations" to improve "the Economy". The lack of regulation is companies' kickback for supporting these bozos in the next election.

The R''s need to protect their fat cat campaign contributors somehow.

I am the same way with Spanish tunes...although they need to be rock for me. If I ever learn Spanish, I won't enjoy them as much.

Maybe. Yet the pop. seems to accept the least acceptable widget or service if it is cheap enough. And the current AI strikes me as being cheap enough, even with the hallucinations. Buy something Amazon who shipped you A-Number-One-Widget? It sucks but only cost $4.99 a pop.

At least currently, you must know enough to tell when the AI is telling you the truth or has been dipping in the funny mushrooms.

Being pink unicorns, they can fight entropy if they carry enough energy in their spaceship, they can fix their spaceship and themself. Humans don't know how to fix themself and always die.

What makes you think "military certified" means anything? This is Microsoft, the best the U.S. Gov. could do is use SE Linux, but then how would those brain-destroying Pooperpoints get made?

The home-grown stupidity is right up there. Jimmy Kimmel had someone out in the street asking random people what was the recent eclipse. The answers were so bizarre that I wonder how these people haven't taken themselves out of the gene pool from sheer stupidity.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Huh? I don't think we need to bring the ability to believe the former alleged president into this.

"DEI people" = anyone who not a male Caucasian. Using the term DEI is all the rage these days in Fox Land.

You are banking on MS allowing you to run Linux on their box?

For me a bigger problem is that I'd have to use Windows. I'd rather eat a broom soaked in old, cold hot dog water.
