Autopilot and Pro have absolutely no tie other than Pro being a requirement to leverage the enterprise feature

Further, Microsoft has a support queue specifically for requesting removal if you can produce purchasing paperwork

… Not that anyone with technical chops should care. This will only ever impact you at OOBE, which is easily bypassed

That chicken is caked the fuck up

Yes. If that’s not for you, that’s fine! If that isn’t a dealbreaker, it’s an exceptional platform

Yes, there was an incident where ~1k people received push notifications that were intended for other accounts

Shitty, but they addressed the issue within 24hr, notified impacted users, and published a sitrep. They handled it extremely well imo, but also you could disable the cloud connection if it concerns you

UniFi Protect is outstanding. You need to buy one of their NVRs or cloud gateways to use it, but it’s incredible & wouldn’t want another system for our house/family business

I was going to say, currently working in K12 & this key would be a nightmare for us. We definitely can’t pay Microsoft’s minimums - disabling/remapping the key wouldn’t be hard, but it’s obnoxious it becomes a priority.

The stenographer for our local zoning & planning board still uses a XP netbook. Couldn’t believe my eyes when I first saw it

Yes they’ve always been a thing in the promotions/else tabs, anyone who says they aren’t around simply hasn’t clicked those tabs or registered they existed (in fairness, everything in that tab is generally an ad)

It could be better, but it’s not as horrible as the reviews told me it was. Moved from a Z Fold 4 to an 8 pro - I’ve never ultrasonic, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

The real star of the show is the Level 3 Face Unlock. It works perfectly as long as you’re in a lit room

They use Fi

Yeah the original commenter is absolutely a Fi subscriber

You’re preaching to the choir, lol. I’m just saying the hardware on non-entry Chromebooks is outstanding these days. Everything else is a matter of time & licensing

Like any computer, Chromebook hardware sucks if you’re buying entry level sub-$500 devices. The reputation for shitty hardware is generally from people who have only used entry level devices

Our standard fleet for our teachers is Acer Spin 513-2WH. They’re exceptionally nice

Good, glad they’re moving quickly on this

I have no idea how i’d replace YouTube in my life - sites like Reddit are one thing, but there is no current viable analogue to YouTube. Premium is pretty cheap for what it is - happy I made the decision to subscribe years ago

Amen on free form multi window being a necessity - I can’t say I’ve ever triple tasked, but I absolutely have had floating windows for quick reference (like infographics/calculator/etc)

Force full screen is a must have - the Pixel Folds currently inability to do this makes it a nonstarter for me

DeX is awesome when I need it. I could live without it, but it’s really nice to use in a pinch
