  • Well, maybe tell Microsoft and others to stop sucking in these technological advances they treat as shiny misunderstood toys that are forced down everyone’s throats and make everyone’s lives a lot harder than they’re supposedly making easier.

    I am not arguing against the idea of upgrading at all or avoiding security at all. What I am always tired of, is just seeing the direction Microsoft takes and then telling people to shove off into their shitty new ecosystem for the sake of security. Like no, you’re watering down your OS and dumbing down everything while telling millions of users like “well, uh, like it because we’re Microsoft so fuck you”.

    And nothing is improving or giving people the strong urge to immediately upgrade because of said directions and choices.

    Which is why we have this delayed lapse in people just stretching out these support cycles who’re not interested in hopping to the next OS, because they aren’t liking what they see and sometimes experience on another’s computer that has that latest OS version.

    By the time Windows 10 is truly done, Windows 11 has its announcement for the last of its updates and by the time Microsoft moves to 12 in however they handle it, maybe then.








  • Here’s the thing and people are gonna not like it but I don’t care.

    Charlie Kirk now is going to be treated like a martyr for a while, a vessel of any and all actions partaken from the conservatives. So, they’ll just be fueled now to take up arms against their opponents as if they aren’t in control of everything when their party affiliation already is.

    I would’ve wanted the places swapped and Luigi is the one killed, because then his martyrdom would empower the people that should be the ones making the big changes against people who think like Charlie Kirk and abide by whatever this current administration is about.

    I mean the contrast between both cases is glaring.






  • So, imagine your machine is one of those Dell Optiplex contraptions of the 2000s and even early 2010s.

    Those machines sucked for the reason that, their components were tightly compacted, very little wiggle room to do anything in, upgrading anything was next to impossible because everything had to be low-profile to even fit into the case, everything was a dust/heat nightmare waiting to happen.

    Just so many vulnerabilities in those machines are exactly what you could be facing if you go this route.




  • No, never was. I’m glad I’m not.

    And to hit it home how unpopular I was, when I got my senior yearbook, I was in a particular section of the book where they seemingly put the undesired students in. Like, every senior got pages where they got nice pictures, they got a quote and some bio of them. Where I was at, there was none of that, just a couple pages of pictures of students they don’t care for, even though we all got the same piece of paper that asked us what we’d like to say. Didn’t matter.

    Funny how none of the people who ran that yearbook staff, went on to do bigger and greater things. I haven’t heard of or read their names doing anything significant. Just goes to show people just have a lot of ego in schools.
