An o-ring would probably fix it right up.

Because they will have no other option once their existing system dies. In this scenario actual PCs will be something only the wealthy can afford. Everyone else gets dumb terminals.

And honestly, VDI is great from a general user standpoint. It’s the companies who run it that make it a bad option.

And they’re not going to switch production back to consumer hardware either. Those data centers will be used to sell virtual desktop subscriptions.

It’s good enough that my 75yo mother picked it up without trouble when I switched her to Mint after W10 went EoL.

Think for a minute about how providing your ID to access the internet would become a requirement.

That’s the fun part - they don’t! There are no special 1s nor 0s

Yea, it was what was being discussed. Your assertion is that it’s impossible for the ruling class to have an exception. You seem to think a technical limitation exists where none does.

If you’re fast enough, yes. But once you start showing symptoms, you’re dead

The Mayans were right. The world actually ended in 2012 and this is just hell.

My school did this 20 years ago. It’s wild that they let kids have their phones in class in the first place.

A system to kill a fuck ton with lasers has existed for decades, but a patent troll is sitting on it.

I once received an alert from a server temperature sensor for a reading hotter than the surface of the sun.

That’s how most of the world works with regards to filming in public.

No, there’s no legal requirement to contribute to projects you’ve used and modified, unless the license explicitly states so.

That’s how I became popular with the ladies when I went to band camp. I had extreme social anxiety about starting conversations with girls, so I bought a ridiculous hat in the French Quarter in New Orleans. Because I could wear that around them with no trouble for some reason

I didn’t have to initiate any conversations that year, they all came to me.
