Or, you know, just use USB-A port if you don't have a full feature usb-c controller. Honestly, this should have been part of the USB-C from go, but good on Microsoft for stepping up where they failed.
The big difference for Framework from the other laptops is that most Frameworks are *pre-sold*. Framework can't plan a laptop price 2 months in advance when the person in charge of Tarrif policy changes his mind every 3 days with 0 notice, and suddenly, all those laptops for which you negotiated prices and sold will now cost you an extra, 10, 20, or 30% on the day they ship!
Allowing Seagate to keep supplying them Barracuda Hard Drives would be even better sabotage of Huawei business.
The assume all the risk. They pay up front for the inventory,, and when the business goes sour, they are left on the hook for it.
What better Solutions? Outlook? Windows Mail? Mac Mail? Web clients (any of them?)... pff....
I'll give the folks who like Evolution on Linux a tip of the hat..
Full End to End Encryption solution out of the box.
Easy to move profiles whole and intact between computers, even between operating systems.
Can handle 100 of GB of e-mail without issue.
Functional and easy to train spam filtering.
All told, It's a great product,, and I would say, more important now than ever before. (For the Encryption feature.)
After a very quick search, I find this article from 2020 that explains the complaint. There is the expected issue of Mohamed carricatures, but then this bit about "dissemination of misleading, wrong, deceptive and deceitful information through articles published on Wikipedia portraying Mirza Masroor Ahmad as a Muslim" makes it completely deranged.
The only problem I have with machine generated art is the data that is used to train it. AI art is just a fancy way of copying bits and pieces of other artwork... It's fine if the dataset is the artist's own work, or art that is out of copyright, or otherwise licensed in such a way that this would be acceptable. But it's a a *big* problem if you feed the AI art to which you do not have the rights.
It has been industry standard since the inception of passwords that users create their own passwords, and no matter how you repeat that they must not do so, they re-use passwords. The solution is simple. Don't let users create passwords. The website/service should generate a password for you. That would solve 90% of the current security issues with passwords.
That is *not* the Microsoft Store.
You can install and Activate Windows without microsoft account. To make it easy, you need a Lan connection to internet, (use usb adapter if no rj-45 port on computer.). Start Windows install with No internet. At the step it demands internet, connect Lan cable to continue, When you are at the next screen, (checking for updates.) disconnect,. Install with continue from there with local account, as god intended.
The driver should *not* be changing your BIOS settings without consent.. but this article is trying way too hard to scaremonger over a non-issue.. Precion Boost Overclocking is generally the *default* config on AMD motherboards and does not void any warranty. (That's what gives you the "boost Clock" advertised right on the base CPU Specs. The warranty voiding (which really doesn't) only applies to people manually making changes to the votages and what not.
It's not just the sounding board.. it's the AI Driven 'algorithm' that helps bring them together and creates a neat echo chamber for them... That is what's been the real game changer this decade.
I did not bother trying to figure out if there's any merit to this whatsoever. But if this nonsense spreads, the deaths caused by all the idiots on the road doped up on Benedryl will probably exceed covid. Sharing around this little article, whether or not there's any substance behind it, is even more dangerous than the other covid 'alternative' ideas we had floating around.
By no means do I think anyone should be using Microsoft Browser, now do I support anything that leads us back to the dark days when MS had a commanding market share of the client, and we all know how many years it took to make things better. But I also remember how constant the unwanted hijacking of browsers was for User PC's, and how every software download was 'sponsored' by adware campaigns that used dark patterns to trick all the hapless users into switching browsers. So long as protecting the default browser *also* protects the non-microsoft choice, (once made) I think this is a good thing.
I generally don't see much eye to eye with 'cancel culture.'... But that was too far man,, the Pooh doesn't deserve that.
I'm a Lisp variable -- bind me!
