Comment Why are California Government Vehicles not 100% EV (Score 4, Insightful) 217

All State, County, and City vehicles in California should be 100% EV before imposing such draconian (and unattainable) restrictions of business and residents. The Government should lead by example. Newsom has failed on this point.
Police vehicles, trash trucks, ambulances, fire trucks, politicians vehicles, etc should all be done first.

Comment Re:Why has Microsoft not been stopped by the GDPR (Score 1) 195

MS has done this before with zero real repercussions. Forced updates even when updates permission answered "no" and even when updates disabled. This even made some machines 100% unusable with no ability to roll back or revert. There answer was that operating system is 'too old' and 'not secure enough for you' - isn't that supposed to be the users decision?

"If Microsoft tries to remotely disable it, they are in for a world of hurt, because that is definitely illegal tampering with your device,"
