HANG ON BEFORE YOU HIT THE DOWNVOTE BUTTON!
They don’t need a recall. If your processor ain’t broke yet then the patch will (supposedly) prevent it from breaking and if it’s ALREADY broke then Intel will (supposedly) replace it via RMA.
So what’s the big fuggin’ problem here? That Intel won’t use the term “recall”?
Head to Vegas and bet all 100 Million that the Earth will be destroyed by an Asteroid in the next 25 days.
Earth not destroyed? 100 Million is gone and the Billion is yours. Earth IS destroyed? You aren’t alive to know that you won the bet but lost the Billion.
You literally cannot lose.
It was when it started but that hasn’t been accurate for the past two releases.
Frankly, I never understood why businesses were invested in the office suite anyway.
When MS Office really took off back in the Office 97 days there weren’t any good alternatives and now MS Office is so embedded that it’s almost impossible to dislodge.
You’d need more than 9,000 of the largest hard drives made (32TB) to store the nearly 300 Petabytes of data they have. Still within the reach of an obscenely rich tech bro but not exactly cheap.
145+ Petabytes for a single copy of the archive and they currently have two copies of everything for a total of around 290 Petaybtes.
The largest hard drive I’m aware of is 32TB so you’d “only” need over 9,000 (lol) of the largest drives ever made. I can’t even tell you what that would cost since Seagate doesn’t have a publicly available price for the damn things!
I still don’t see a single actual advantage of W11 over 10.
From the user’s perspective there really aren’t any. MS could have stopped with W10, or even W7, and things would have been just fine.
Still bound to a employer laptop which uses Win11 in a Microsoft collaboration setting
Ask for Windows 11 Enterprise. I know that it’s got the same “recommended” thing going on but it can be completely disabled via Group Policy and / or the Registry.
Linux Mint at home and Windows 11 Enterprise at the office.
At the Office it’s my employers problem and at home Mint doesn’t give AF about Windows 11.
The correct response to someone claiming something is propaganda is to go find more sources for more and separate incidents. If you can find multiple sources showing that a situation has happened multiple times then it stops being “propaganda” and starts being information.
At this point I have a pile of independent sources documenting multiple different incidents that support my understanding of the situation. I’m still open to counter evidence but so far you haven’t provided any.
That’s a fair point, but what you are talking about isn’t a “VPN”, at least not as they’re commonly known and understood. Please remember that my response was directed to a user whose comment boiled down to “Get a VPN, that will solve the problem.” A regular VPN will absolutely not the solve the problem.
I don’t think that’s a fair criticizm. After all my dumb ass hasn’t been banned (so far).
Fair enough.
That one details several such cases and includes links to local coverage from Litchi News from one of them.
Then there’s this showing that the CCP banned unregistered VPNs in 2017. It’s partially why they prosecuted the people in the previous article.
If you don’t like that then here’s The Guardian with a separate incident:
Seriously, I can find articles like that detailing different incidents in every major mainstream media source. So either all of them are lying to me -or- you are trying to gaslight me.
Guess which one I think is more probable?
I feel like I should say that a VPN isn’t a magic bullet. Even if its configured correctly to totally obfuscate the data and the final endpoint of the traffic it’s still blatantly obvious that a VPN is in use. Given that the CCP monitors all of this stuff it wouldn’t surprise me to learn that if you run a VPN long or often enough without providing stating why that it’ll either end up blocked or you’ll end up in trouble.
PGP back in the day.
I’ve already read several comments just like that over on .ml.
