Because they are saying that's not what happened (in their opinion - it certain sounds like that's what happened from the summary)....

They clearly aren't saying "We accept we are racist, but we just don't want to pay" (even if its true or not). They are saying "we don't agree that the issue was caused by race, we would never be racist and are disappointed the ruling said we are ".

*yawn*

Which leaked on the board, that then damages traces, which doesnt conduct between components, therefore PCB failing to operate.

Not sure why you are trying to be a pedant, but one thing can cause another to fail. The cause of the PCB failure doesnt really matter, once its dead, it needs replacing - no matter the "cause".

You think you are being funny, but you clearly dont know much about the amiga. The PCB is the most common part to die in many models of amiga, the battery leaks and destroys the board.

Feel that may have backfired for you a little.

You need to look into MDT (Microsoft Deployment Toolkit). You are duplicating work by installing in a VM each time and then creating/writing an image.

Setup MDT (works from network and USB, you can PXE boot or boot from USB and still use network).

You keep 1 base image up to date, you can add drivers by Model in a folder structure that automatically get detected and installed. Its a little setup, but once its done, adding a new machine is just a case of adding a few drivers. Generally I would just install once as-is, find what was missing after Windows update and then reinstall again. Almost all hands off, leaving you to do something else.

I did image deployment professionally for quite a few years, the tools are great now. Manually installing an OS, apps and drivers is very 90/00s.

I can also tell you, no normal user is getting "joy" from their operating system. Windows or Linux. These type of comments just show how deluded the people saying them are and that they don't represent the people they are claiming to be helping from the evil of Windows.

Honestly, do you seriously believe this nonsense? Day to day, people don't "suffer" with the Windows desktop. I can honestly count on 1 hand how many times a year someone has a computer issue that halts work at my company. I can tell you that if you gave "normal" users linux, you would get far more frustration and lost time than what you seem to think Windows causes.

The people making this comments are "open source advocates", its not a view thats actually shown in day to day jobs, its people who are tied into a mindset. Its like religion than an actual business/technical/reality discussion.

Mod me down all you like, but honestly, if you think this would work with the vast majority of the population (us technical folk are a minority) - you have not got out enough and met normal people.

Presumable harmed by not getting their 30%, which is the terms of the breached contract. Reinstating their account without resolving the issue, wont resolve the "harm".

It is clearly licensed, with the apache license. https://github.com/appget/appg...

You dont even need to do that. Windows 7 key will activate Windows 10. Just install matching version of Windows 10 (Home for Home Premium, Pro for Pro) and use the Windows 7 key.

I cant remember off the top of my head how many you are allowed to create (or if we were even told) - but theres a "so many per hour/day" rule in place. So "normal" usage should lock you out, but enrollment days etc would.

I dont work in IT (and always hated Macs/OSX) - so dont take the fact I did the courses and got certified as anything other than I had to do it (for my previous job). But you are quite right, they dont take it seriously - we had a whole bit on how we should have an iTunes enrollment day to get around the problem (so shifting the issue to IT depts, rather than Apple).

When I did my Apple certifications, I was told about this. Basically its to stop people bulk creating iTunes accounts, education are supposed to get in touch with Apple and get their IP whitelisted for 30 days when you are enrolling new students.

The other work around was apparently to go to an Apple store, they are all whitelisted for obvious reasons.

Are you still using WEP? You would think people would be more concerned about security with all the hacks every 15 minutes actually getting media attention.

Sure it is, we are just one of the pressures.
