- Comment on With the ICE raids coming up at a very faster rate, do we need more self-defense (or community defense organizing) classes? 6 days ago:
Youre optimistic about taking it to court when ice will kidnap you and deport you without ever seeing a lawyer or a judge.
- Comment on Microsoft May Have Created the Slowest Windows in 25 Years with Windows 11 1 week ago:
I had to buy a laptop for my kid to use for some online testing that required windows 11. They install some rootkit like malware that only runs on a baremetal install. So virtual machines were out, Linux was not supported.
So I plunged into that cesspool. Holy crap what a shitshow just to get an install.
Its true they force you to use a ms account to complete install. You must have WiFi enabled or might as well return it. Took 2 hours to download whatever it needed to complete the setup. Hadd to create 2 online accounts because the 1st one errored for an unknown reason.
After it booted I discovered S mode. You must sign in online and enable Hello to get out of S mode to install anything other than ms apps.
To use local account, you need to click around 4 or 5 different areas in order to remove online, then hello, then the passkey, then remove the ms account. I haven’t even begun cleaning up the diags, spyware, ads,suggestions, etc…
I feel dirty now.

Correct the head mefia unitnhas the cellular plug. But to get to it, id have to remove the whole dashboard. The roof was easier
- Comment on Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto? 3 weeks ago:
2015 cars came with bluetooth support fir hands free calling using your phone. This was great.
After that, it was replaced with carplay or android auto as the only means to get hands frwe calling. Stupid…stupid.
Plus, last 2 new cars i bought, i had yo take the interior roof apart so i could access the buily in cellular antennae wire and remove that spyware P.O.S. And by the way, car works fine without it.
- Comment on If reincarnation exists, suicide could make things much much worse. 3 weeks ago:
Some techings say that being born as a human is as random as a blind sea turtle swimming from the ocean bottom to the top and hitting his head against a floating cork.
- Comment on What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment? 4 weeks ago:
PiHole works great. I get 20% of requests denied and it really helps keep ads and unwanted sites to a minimum. It was easy to setup. I just update it via ssh once every 60days or so.
The stats are kinda revealing also as to the sites the household uses .

In the police academy movie, its what the white asshole called the black lady who ran over his foot… which made hightower fucking pissed at him and flipped the car he was hiding in.
So its probably a bad slur.
- Comment on Not to get all religous but was not Jesus pissed for people making money in churches? Didn't he flip tables and everything? Then how do churches nowadays explain the collection plate? 1 month ago:
If someone asks, “What would Jesus do?” Remember that flipping tables and whipping a bitch are viable options.
- Comment on Windows 11 to add an AI agent that runs in background with access to personal folders, warns of security risk 1 month ago:
At some point, all that juicy sweet medical data will be worth the 8 figure bribe to several congressmen to allow thebsale of access to the data for ‘research’ use to amazon and google.
All that data is private, until it isnt.
Dont be so innocent to think that hipaa data will never be sold, it will be eventually
- Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3 1 month ago:
Its been like 3 decades… bit i thought ver 4 introduced the bindery which removed the per server user limit… i moved into networking about that time so im not sure. WindowsNT hadnt been released yet i remember.
- Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3 2 months ago:
Well remember netware had a 250 user limit per server before 4.0. Thats not alot in corp space. I remember running many servers just to handle user auth and logon back with netware 3.12
