I thought of that too, but then realized they need the latest graphic card updates to run Google, Amazon and Microsoft mass-surveillance applications!

Exactly. Those russian CS gamers are the worst scum in the world and deserve to be (cybernetically) wacked.

What would you personally do with that pressure if you lived in Moscow? At best get beaten in a protest.

Fartographer for president!

Wow, I never expected that elaborated answer, thank you. To be honest I love the bicycle and can’t wait until the autumn rains stop and the good white finnish winter starts for some cool rides. It just requires more preparation and shower time each morning, but twice a week is great.

I have been so close to an accident several times that makes me think, what a sad way to end my life in a hurry to get my ass into work. I even love my job, but still it’s so absurd to precipitate an accident by hurrying to make it for 8 o’clock in the morning every damn day.

I’ve also used the bus a lot, but despite the last technology pros like vehicle gps tracking it takes three times longer to get to work than by car and is quite boring too.

To sum up I think the best solution would be to remove like 90% of the asfalt roads. If you want to drive, then get you some vehicle that can ride the mountains around the city.

I talk as a person who rode the bicycle and walked more than driven a car that in a typical city centre designed for cars I prefer to live poluting with my car rather than die hit by one while riding the bicycle in a hurry to work.

How do you do that?

Yeah, when I read this I was like ‘is anyone still denying ads use of microphone?’ Eight years ago I would be called paranoid, but now everybody experienced smartphone at it’s best.

Still, as from a mechanical engineer perspective I would trust slightly more a combustion motor system to work offline rather than an electrical, where I could never know how the motor really works and relays on.

Personally I enjoy driving a 1987 bensine Ford.

The tipping point for me to definitely use adblock was 2022 and the ads when forwarding in videos. It’s absolutely nonsense.

Mildly offensive Cpt. Obvious boring ass uncle. That’s how I see Joe.

Beautiful

Depends on the game. Chess is 0% based on luck, but in i.e: Age of Empires II the randomness of the starting map affects a lot in the outcome of the game. It’s not like you beat your opponent fully thanks to your skills. It’s more having fun discovering the map each time and be more competitive in the endgame.

No, bc gvts are themselves owned by companies.

Windows updates anyways after several restarts choosing not to. I guess it’s some kind of default setting that may be set off too.

What about importing tabs without consent? Is that also lack of user knowledge? Even when it was turned off in settings?

The difference may be Windows forces to update, while i.e. Ubuntu has several older versions still working.

From the article: ‘So I went to install the same Windows update on a laptop, which actually resulted in it failing and me having to do a system restore. Once the system restore…’

Who needs to continue reading the article before realizing the malware is Windows itself?

The only reason I use Netflix is the PS3, because I don’t have a smart TV

I really hope you’r wrong on that. Anyways, it’s a pleasure to see Google bleeding.

On top of what Aatube says about secret unfair deals, Google’s Play Store is necessary to run essential social services. In my case I need it to download my banking app and to sign into my university’s online studies.
