Fuck this company.

You're damn right.

This seems like one of those rare moments when you actually have to give Sony their kudos. Yes, pat yourself on the back this time.

The true piracy is when people label it "piracy" in the first place. They are hijacking a loaded word in a transparent attempt to make normal activity sound wrong before we're even allowed to talk about it.

It looks like you're about to die in a horrible 40-car collision! Don't fret, though! Mutual Assurance can protect your family for just pennies a day! You'll really regret not signing up for this policy!

I like how it's so hot that he needs four fans.

Microsoft says it remains on track to preview Recall with Windows Insiders on Copilot Plus PCs in October, after the company has had more time to make major changes to Recall.

Just in time for Halloween. That'll be sure to give people a good scare.

Funny how quickly free speech drops dead whenever right-wing snowflakes get involved.

If you think about it, it kind of makes sense. Putin can't threaten to torture/imprison your friends and relatives if your friends and relatives are all sitting in a POW camp somewhere. There's nothing to stop these people from calling him out.

12 TB drives are pretty cheap right now.

For comparison, NBC in the US paid US$7.75 billion (A$11.8 billion) in 2014 for the rights to broadcast the Olympics until 2032.

At that much money, you can pretty much count on extreme amounts of corruption and thievery going on behind the scenes.

I just have to say, after having booted into Windows, that Linux is so much nicer than Windows when it comes to doing system "updates."

So, here I am, sitting in my chair for about 20 minutes looking at a mostly black screen and a highly dubious looking percentage number going up very slowly. It tells me that Windows is "updating" and that I should keep the computer turned on. Good thing I have the computer turned on or I wouldn't know that I shouldn't have it turned off, right?

Anyway, I start to think about how this experience goes in Linux. In my experience, I do "system" updates about once a month, and I can see each individual package being installed (if I glance away from my browser session, that is). In Windows, I have no choice but to sit here and wonder if the system will even work again.

Windows decides that it wants to update drivers, apparently (I honestly have no idea what it's doing, which is part of what pisses me off), because it reboots the computer. Then it reboots again. Then, eventually, everything goes back to the familiar Windows desktop. WTF?

How anyone could prefer Windows to Linux is truly a mystery to me.

Kamala should really be doing much better going against a despicable convicted rapist and a couch fucker.

The videos may be fake, but the methods they describe are being used by ruzzian terrorists themselves. Bear in mind that every accusation is really a confession.
