Two competitors cooperating to dominate a market? Sounds like a trust to me. I'm sure the fact both rely on Chinese goods is just a coincidence.

I'm sure the America-last crowd will disagree, because the agenda here is to lie until every last citizen is unemployed. Let's watch.

Entra ID is AD with OpenID--ish instead of Kerberos--ish. Because Microsoft's early cloud architects decided that they needed to jettison Kerberos to move to the cloud, which was really dumb. Also sure the infrastructure team standing up all of those Linux boxes did not want to have to deal with LDAP config being a pre-condition to everything. They would be so much better off if they had just doubled down on Kerberos. Now they have a giant mess of variations in how authentication works that have all been bailing-wired together and will forever be the source of security exploits.

The average for the entire Gen Z seems to be closer to 0.

I'm afraid the future is in companies like Loongson Technology which will be bringing forth the next generation of CPU designs. NVidia should be investing in the future, not the past. At a market cap of just $8B NVidia could buy Loongson Tech outright.

Taliban tech A: the internet's down in Bumfuckistan.
Taliban tech B: go fix it
Taliban tech A: I have no idea how, I tried restarting the computer and it didn't do anything
Taliban tech B: restart the router.
Taliban tech A: I tried, but it was smoking and wouldn't turn back on.
Taliban tech B: replace the router
Taliban tech A: I can , but I have no idea how to program it.
Taliban tech B: Manager, we can't fix it.
Taliban Manager: Shit. Lets just tell everyone the internet is immoral so we don't have to fix it.
Taliban tech A and B: Brilliant!

I know some companies have been working on this, but they could travel to odd places and don't need a runway. Yes, they're slow and beholden to weather, but wind turbine construction isn't exactly a speed race anyway.

Our space program got fired. We don't build anything here except layoffs. Only a matter of time before Google unplugs the Internet to deafening cheers. Then there won't be any more inconvenient headlines about the fact nobody has a job.

I'm sure you've tried this, but use a mall pin to CAREFULLY to clear any gunk out of the phone's USB port such as lint. I've "fixed" two phones this way that were intermittently charging.

So your argument is that reducing the ports on a laptop is the fault of the user's laziness?
Do you KNOW how many people I have come in complaining that, once again, they've lost dongle A, or dongle B, or dongle C? Or they don't even know what they're missing and they're calling on the phone from some ungodly location because they can't locate said dongle and they have to present in ten minutes.
A half a dozen dongles? You are you serious?
Mostly you don't carry around a keyboard. Sometimes the site supplies it when you arrive. Sometimes displays, when you arrive, already are patched with HDMI cables ready to go.

All of this is stuff you mention we CAN do. We can carry random dongles, we can carry patches and bits and pieces and things to plug in. But simply adding the ports to the device is sooooo much easier. It's like saying "Yeah, you can carry a large solar array and power your laptop in the wilderness" when a larger installed battery would suffice.

It's all bullshit-coated bullshit with a creamy bullshit center.

There is no trust in our workplaces, which means there will never be achievement or progress. Only fraud.

Anyone on call should be able to set their car to preheat if they receive a call from a specified list of phone numbers, or specific alerts from PagerDuty etc.

I've been wondering about the scam ads on YouTube. I never see ads for real products anymore. Just those ads about the one weird trick.

LOL

Heck yeah! Then you probably roll coal on them, leavinbg a coexist shaped cloud of unburned fuel in your wake. Right before the whole neighborhood stands up and claps for you.
