Got it, indeed, that is important for clarity.
I still have a couple of DVD burners from olden times, but I'd love to be able to write a blu-ray. That would actually be useful. Hardly anything I want to back up will even fit on a DVD any more...
The cheapest one I can see on Amazon is $59 and it's some no-brand product I wouldn't buy.
Where do you get one for $20? Aliexpress? Is it also a bullshit no-brand device?
The processor obviously doesn't include a cellular modem. You could reasonably put it in the chipset. You would still need an antenna. In order to be practical it would have to reach outside of the case, as PCs mostly have metal cases (even many of the plastic ones have metal RF shields, or at least paint) and are not good at letting RF signals out. In a typical laptop the antenna is around the monitor bezel for example. So yeah, I could believe they designed a chipset that would do that, but they wouldn't have put it in the processor itself and this also clearly would have been an optional feature because the manufacturer would have to connect an antenna.
The 3G-related features are billed as part of vPro remote-control, specifically AMT. They also tout control by Ethernet, not just "3G". There's not ethernet on the processor die either, any more than there is 3G.
You have gone full frother.
Your OS isn't changed. You'll notice nothing different. Your Microsoft account on the other hand is storing a backup.
Accounts don't do anything. They are just some database entries. Software does something with them. In this case, it's software that exfiltrates your data without getting your explicit permission. An intelligent person would recognize this as malware, which explains why you don't.
You're a power user. Use your power and manage your settings.
You mean this setting which Microsoft is turning on whether it's wanted or not? Suck harder, cuck. There's a prize for you at the end. It's a complete lack of self-respect.
Opt-out is exfiltration.
Microsoft's telemetry already collects information about how people use the software, what is installed from Microsoft store, and how settings are applied on devices.
This is about copying their files, wholesale, which is obviously still more data than that. You don't seem to understand the difference between less than, equal to, and more than. How do you function? Why have you written so many obviously batshit insane comments in the last 24 hours? Every comment I've read on multiple discussions this morning which has made me say "what the fuck is this clown on about" has been by you.
And I love watching my son play speed runs on mad level, I never had synapses tike that.
Are you sure? Because maybe they were just trained for a different job. Mine were wasted on Ninja Gaiden, the original I mean. You had to be halfway to a speedrunner just to finish that fucker. But having trained my brain to do that for 2d platformers (which I can't or perhaps don't want to do any more either, but now I'm old and have an excuse) I find it difficult to do it for 3d ones.
They over-spent during the pandemic, and because AAA games take so long and so much money to develop now, by the time they reached the market the bubble had already burst.
There is seldom a game which couldn't benefit from more development time. When you choose to throw away effort instead of stretching it out a little more and having a more polished product to offer at a more fortuitous time... well, then you're the games industry in general.
I think you have this backwards, the arts community misunderstands Meta.
HahaHAHAHHaHAHAHHAHAHAH
Instagram is a social network.
Very good, junior! *claps* *holds up an orange* Now what is this?
For the most part its insane limitations on how to post images and the presentation format is virtually the antithesis of art
Limitations are a key principle of art. The camera only captures what you point it at and configure it for. The brush only puts on the canvas what you can make it put there.
Meta won't care if professional photographers and artists abandon the platform.
Yeah, why would they care if the people who produce the most interesting images and cause network effects leave their platform?
Those of us with functioning memories actually remember that you basically never upgraded Windows. You bought a new computer to run the new windows.
I never thought of my memory being especially great until I got to compare it to yours, where you forgot that computer technology was moving rapidly enough that the average person wasn't buying a new one more often than a new version of Windows came out. Today I also learned that you're not a PC enthusiast, because you didn't build more PCs than that in that period. Windows licenses transferred freely. Some of us were actually building PCs and successfully used the same license for multiple machines as we rotated through them. Sorry you weren't into this stuff but want to talk about it anyway.
As a previous poster pointed out, what fields are affected?
Per TFS, this is specifically a study regarding "50 top research universities"
Given the current economic turmoil is it really surprising the students are thinking twice before committing that much money and time to a field that may not exist by the time they are done?
That could be literally any field, though.
Some firms will still employ people who can think, because their leadership can think well enough to know computers can't. They will no doubt reap the rewards of keeping humans in more loops. But in the meantime, a lot of people are going to suffer a whole lot.
So you think this lawsuit, this zombie lawsuit from last century, is the 'shot across the bow' heralding the start of The Year of the Linux Desktop? Really?
There's no start of the year of the linux desktop because that started ages ago and will continue gaining ground gradually until either a new thing comes along or Windows dies in fire and it becomes the de facto choice for people who don't want to buy Macs.
On the other hand, it is quite logical to believe that SCO is being reanimated again for the benefit of Microsoft, because there has never been more interest in replacing Windows with Linux.
IBM is still evil. SCO just sucks.
What's left of SCO exists solely for the purpose of attacking Linux for the benefit of Microsoft's shareholders and at the expense of everyone else, so that's still pretty evil.
What the international treaties such as the Berne Convention do is give you automatic copyright in the other signatory countries.
They also unified copyright law among those signatory countries to a significant extent, so at least your suit is likely to succeed in any of them.
Wait, are you talking about IBM or SCO?
IBM actually creates things. SCO created a few things, but most of them were weird. Like SCO Open Desktop, which was slightly after CDE, and had no real reason to exist since everyone was going to CDE at the time. Or SCO UUCP, of which I have no real complaint, but why write another one with so few changes? OTOH SCO UNIX was really solid before any other x86 UNIX (or Unixlike) was. You could count on it.
At this point, the Orange Clown is so far into dementia land and purposely so insulated from reality that he IS a biological autopen.
He used autopen for his jan6 pardons. Every accusation from the reich is a confession.
