Has anyone tried deleting or un-linking their Microsoft account after setting up a Windows 11 system?
There seem to be sites that say this works:

It's hard to tell from the fantastic article, or the original Google post. Does this AI filter apply to all users, or just to users with a Google account? Is this specific to Android ND Chrome devices, or anything connecting to a Google service?
"just for funsies I bought a $300 hip-hop shirt that makes me look like a drunken generalissimo's white cousin for about $20 in the basement of a department store in Panama City."
This may be the greatest line I have ever seen on Slashdot.
I don't always agree with your posts, but thank you for everything that you do!
A serious response to a tongue-in-cheek question, with a link that not only answers my question, but also has cool stuff like graphs on how often words are used!
Thank you! This is why I still love Slashdot.
When did "compute" become a noun?
I'll second that. You are not alone. The surface Duo phones are great for getting work done.
You don't get to come back a year (or a century) later and say, "Hey, I just found out what that painting is actually worth. Give it back."
Actually... Why not? You said yourself you're in the wrong and you certainly acted in bad faith, so why shouldn't your victim have their demand to annul the deal enforced?
As opposed to people with nativist and inward looking views, companies like Apple HAVE to work overseas, and if you keep following the US govt kool-aid, then you will only be able to do business with Western Europe and other allies.
Try to understand that a big part of the world actually sees the US as the big bad empire that they portray China to be and it makes sense that they ask Stewart to tone it down a bit.
It's not that China is a big bad empire, it's that Xi is an emperor who's unable to placate his people with promises of a better tomorrow due to China's economy having caught up enough that the rubber band has gone slack and dictatorships being inherently incompatible with the rule of law which a strong economy requires, so his only hope for survival is to placate them with promises of glory which makes a confrontation with China and West pretty much inevitable, and Xi knows that. It's the same deal as with Russia, US is simply being wiser than EU was.
Basically, what's business to Apple is a weapon to China, and China is a fundamentally hostile nation to anyone who doesn't think Xi would make a great world leader, which he wouldn't judging by everything I know about life in China and also because he's a genocidal tyrant. That's not "nativist" or "inward looking", that's simply realism.
I recently saw a very insightful interview where dictatorships are defined by things you cannot criticize, like the CCP in China, Kim Jong-un in Korea, etc. In the US the thing that will absolutely get you canceled will be talking about the Israeli lobby and the influence such a small group holds over US culture in general.
Seriously? You're equating getting canceled with getting disappeared?
Note that such a system would also prevent Slashdot from leaning left and censoring conservatives, which they're doing now by institution an idiotic "karma". Slashdot karma is all about politics. And Slashdot is left leaning. One could express that cutely as "CowboyNeal is an imbecile".
But you're not being censored. Your comment is right here, readable for all who care to engage with users with bad reputation. That you have managed to earn a bad reputation through your own actions does not reflect badly on Slashdot or CowboyNeal, it reflects badly on you. It is the consequence of your actions, in other words, your karma.
That most people ignore you doesn't mean you're being censored, it just means that they think you and your opinions are not worth listening to. That your response to this is that the government should force them to pay attention just serves to demonstrate that their judgement is completely right. It's not a political judgement, it's a judgement about you as a person.
Given your vitriol here, I think you know that too, and judging by the fact that you keep posting on Slashdot despite hating the place I doubt you're more welcome elsewhere either. So perhaps you should reflect on the only common factor for a change, try to see your self from other people's eyes and maybe, just maybe accept that you might actually be the one who's in the wrong and needs to change? It's painful, but so is eternal bitterness, and there is no government big enough to make other people like you, so those are your options.
Wow, I can't remember the last time I saw someone admit an error, on the internet. Is that even still allowed?

Dear whoever modded this post as "informative,"
You are the reason I visit Slashdot. Thank you!
I would mod this up if I had points today. A wise old professor once told me something similar: the law can be simple or the law can be fair, but not both.
You have a user ID number over 8 million, and you just used the word "disk space" in the context of a mobile phone. I want to know the backstory that resulted in you!
