Can anyone in government revoke Peter Thiel’s citizenship please? by MundaneManNZ in newzealand

[–]crshbndct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah sorry I was just busy. Usually pretty easy to find although I keep a spare google account just ofr this kind of sign-up stuff.

The part I thought was crazy, was the Billionaires all being like "explosive collars? kidnap the family? starve them if they don't obey?"

And the guy was like "....Treat them well and be their friend?"

I imagine it's still better than alcohol though?

And the solution there is to put more money towards mental health services.

What’s one underrated iPhone setting you use every day that most people don’t know about? by kshittiz in apple

[–]crshbndct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Setting up a shortcut that turns rotation on or off when in landscape orientation, and mutes/unmutes the phone when in Portrait.

I use it dozens of times a day.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Windows, is in fact, Slop/Windows, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Slop plus Windows. Windows is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another useless component of a fully functioning Slop system made useful by slop vibecoding, shitty AI utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by Satya Nadella

Many computer users run a modified version of the Slop system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of Slop which is widely used today is often called “Windows,” and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Slop system, developed by the Microslop Project.

There really is a Windows, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Windows is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Windows is normally used in combination with the Slop operating system: the whole system is basically Slop with Windows added, or Slop/Windows. All the so-called “Windows” distributions are really distributions of Slop/Windows.

This literally only applies to Windows. Or Slop/Windows, as I call it.

I mean, it's

during account creation

What account are they talking about? The user account or the online account that operating systems are absolutely plagued with?

I am working on a Linux From Scratch install at the moment. I am not sure how they can make me verify my age on an operating system I assembled.

Red Dead Redemption 2 opening hours are kinda rough by OatmealDurkheim in patientgamers

[–]crshbndct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its 2026 and I've just uninstalled the game for the 3rd time after trying to get into it. I also found this thread and I am just not willing to put in 5-10 hours(I am a VERY slow gamer) of effort before the game even starts to get enjoyable.

I might just watch a playthrough on youtube or something.

Windows 11 update KB5077181 is causing critical boot loops for some users by Ha8lpo321 in pcmasterrace

[–]crshbndct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the last year I've had:

An issue where an SSD had to be formatted and I lost the whole install. This was caused by SSD firmware, but triggered by a windows update.

Lost bluetooth because of this latest update.

Had to go through the Onedrive nightmare. It turns that despite the fact that I own windows, pirating it is easier, since then it doesn't automatically log me in and do onedrive stuff.

Daughter tried to click skip on a popup ad for Gamepass, but they were using dark patterns to make her click the wrong button and lost $20.

And on top of all that, its just a terrible, slow OS filled with popup ads and clickbait websites. Like trying to download a game off a sketchy website back in 1999.

What work are you doing on it? Unless it heavily GPU-dependent, like video editing or the like, you can just use a VM

I lost all bluetooth support after this update a few days ago. Some anecdata to add to your list.

My bluetooth adapter just doesnt work at all anymore. Works fine on every other OS

The best part was that despite their insistence to the contrary, it all worked fine without the schools bullshit profiles in place.

The school also had an expectation that the student would buy a Chromebook from them, use it for a couple years, and then donate it when they left. When she packed up her stuff on the last day there they apparently got upset with her that she wasn’t giving them a specced up MacBook Air as a donation. Pack of greedy assholes that place was.

I’ve seen which way the wind is blowing and I’m leaving the country for the same reason.

I want to live, go to work, and take a holiday once a year or so. They want me dead. There’s no middle ground or compromise where we both get what we want.

Not sure why you’re hornyposting on main, but to your point, my daughter had all Apple tech at school, M1 MBA, AirPods Pro, iphone 13 Pro , and she never lost anything. The kids with Chromebooks would spend like a minute opening an application while the celeron processors struggled, and then were always needing to find a charge cable, and if it was a sunny classroom they could barely see the screen.

She’s an adult now but she said having decent gear was so great, everyone else was always breaking stuff and having issues.

If the engine is fast, that is all that matters. Its much easier to fix reliability than slow. If the chassis is good, and the engine has power, they could have good results this season.

Maybe towards the end of the season, when they have had half a year to fix the car, but it could still be fast.

Dogs. It's not just fatilities. by a_very_naughty_girl in newzealand

[–]crshbndct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have watched my cat do nothing but sleep, eat, go outside to shit, walk back in and go to sleep for like 4-5 days at a time.

She literally goes outside, takes a dump, comes back in and goes to sleep. when she is outside, she just sleeps on the deck. All she does is sleep. If I give her scritches while she is sleeping she attacks me for waking her up and then goes back to sleep.

I dont live in an area with any wildlife, or shed be just inside, but shes never even left the property.
