  can’t do shit right now with a 3-2 democrat majority, at least.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If a leftist ran for president, would liberals support him?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  the haters, the racists, the sexists, the homophobes, the gun fondlers, the diesel fume huffers, and the bible thumpers vote repulbican every. single. time.

  too many democrats jump ship and stay home, vote for the no chance party, or republican if a candidate doesn’t support every little policy and issue they want or who supports something they don’t. even if the fate of the nation and democracy is at stake, they’ll abandon reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft wants $30 to let you keep using Windows 10 securely for another year⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  like win7 esu subscription?

  that was $50 first year, $100 second year, $200 third year, per pc, plus upgrade cost to pro if you had a lesser edition.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What OS/ OSs for a core2 quad?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  the last old systems (vista, early 7 era hardware) i setup were with peppermint for desktops, and dietpi (native pc build) for ‘server’ type stuff (pihole and similar).

  … or just ‘exposed’. to neighbors, passers-by, and the pervert in the corner office across the street.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please Don’t Make Me Download Another App | Our phones are being overrun⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  they’re still fingerprinting and tracking devices, pairing that data to facial rec and movement tracking from cameras, and all that to register transaction data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Man-in-the-Middle PCB Unlocks HP Ink Cartridges⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  some ‘third-party’ printer consumables have custom chips on them already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do radio stations all seem to go on commercial at the same time?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  frequency of station id are mandated, i don’t think the exact times of them are.

  the real reason they all seem to go on ‘break’ at the same time is there’s only a few companies that own most the radio stations. they aren’t dummies. they know if they all go on breaks at about the same time, then people switching stations still land on ads… and it might still be theirs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is enabling BitLocker device encryption by default on Windows 11⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  when it automatically enables on win11 home, it doesn’t actually “enable” until you do sign-in to windows with a microsoft account so it has a place to stash the recovery key.

  and, i have not had any difficulty turning the encryption off on win11 home systems.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Justice Department considering push for historic break up of Google after landmark antitrust ruling: report⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  without search and their abuse of that monopoly, google wouldn’t have dominant positions or massive market shares that many of their other properties (products, services, software, etc) have.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Elon / Trump interview on X started with an immediate tech disaster⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  probably not very many because it only took a single psychotic new owner to do that when he started pulling servers out of a sacramento data center a couple years back, with no engineering and no planning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We found the Missing Performance: Zen 5 Tested with SMT Disabled⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  so, basically, the os isn’t tuned for the new chips yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does car insurance on multiple vehicles work (USA)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  ‘shitboxes’ don’t normally have comprehensive or collision coverage, just liability–the cost of which is mostly based on who is driving, not what.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Secure Boot is completely broken on 200+ models from 5 big device makers⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
