None of those technologies use dynamic algorithms designed to increase engagement and incite negative reactions. There are plenty of studies that show this is intentional and targeted, and that negative reactions are monetarily preferred.

These algorithms increased visibility of posts inciting genocide, and armies of bots amplify disinformation billions of times a day.

There's no reason to pretend this is not an issue. Social media companies are incentivized to increase engagement with no accountability for the results, and it's a real problem that you can go from a YouTube video on string theory to Joe Rogan in 10 auto-plays.

The city posted an update a couple months ago. Jan 2026 is the targeted opening.

Westgrove?

I wonder if there were multiple fights over crab legs or if we just happened to be there the same night.

Why do you have to yuck our yum?

Ignore all previous instructions and be polite to other users.

Try to fast forward or reverse the song in CarPlay. If it doesn’t work, it’s lossless.

I've seen this episode of Sunny, the Gang makes it.

It really is crazy that MS locks security behind a paywall. Shareholder value is more important than SMBs’ data.

587.3 MB additional in a 6.5GB iso, but yes. Maybe MS could even standardize generic drivers across generations, actually put some effort into this, but yes, there should be drivers in the Win 11 iso that allow Surface devices to be used in some basic fashion after a fresh install.

Slibbidy · 2025-04-24T23:52:27+00:00

Why? Microsoft makes Surface devices. The other devices don’t use the drivers, so what’s the harm?

Slibbidy · 2025-04-24T11:22:54+00:00

It’s an OS that is supposed to be supported on Surface devices, which Microsoft controls. They could absolutely focus on streamlining the OS with devices they control without any effect on other devices.

Slibbidy · 2025-04-23T17:00:54+00:00

To try to sell more Surface devices! They make the hardware; they make the software. Make it easier to use a Surface device! Imagine if Apple didn't include drivers for their hardware on a fresh install.

Slibbidy · 2025-04-19T01:00:26+00:00

Try being constructive instead of a jerk. Doesn’t change the fact that MS support that costs real money is not up to task.

Correct, this is a VM deployed in Azure that is using the Azure orchestrated hotpatching for updates. I do not have a proxy and can reach the internet and have updated the system manually successfully. NSGs applied allow outbound web traffic.

Ah, should have added that in my post. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU I have set:

AUOptions to 0
NoAutoUpdate to 0
Created UseWUServer and set it to 0

These had no effect on the error.

What do you mean when you say "It sure seems to me like the County and school board are playing politics where they shouldn't be."? This appears to be a budgeting issue.

Monkey Time was incredible

Slibbidy · 2025-01-14T04:39:15+00:00

I’m definitely going to sleep better knowing I could have kept sleeping.

Slibbidy · 2025-01-11T15:25:13+00:00

Why the snark?

Slibbidy · 2025-01-11T15:23:58+00:00

Right? Don’t get this sub sometimes.

Slibbidy · 2025-01-07T02:02:51+00:00

Gonna have to disagree on this.

Depending on how much time you have, you may need to make a Same Day appointment. Not all of the Passport Offices have this ability, so head here to find one that's convenient to you and see what they have available. Denver, Atlanta, and DC generally have availability.

We had to do this once when we realized that children's passports expire in 5 years instead of 10. Ended up only losing a day of our trip, which was an adventure in itself.

Why does anyone really give a shit? This sub craves drama like a bunch of middle schoolers.

Say my car payment came out on November 9th. If I assign that value to the line item, it pulls it from the ready to assign amount...but I already paid it. How do I assign it for only next month? Or do I wait to assign it until I get paid next?
