  The article tells you it’s a repair of a wash out. So it absolutely does have a connection.

  Yeah that’s not going to work with this. They armored it just enough to say it’s armored.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefighters Struggle to Break the Tesla Cybertruck’s “Transparent Metal” Glass During Emergency Response Training⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And they aren’t bulletproof anyways.

  So it’s strong enough to prevent timely rescue but too weak to protect you. That’s hilarious. Just perfect.

  That’s not what anyone is asking and if that’s what MS said then they’re just dodging the issue entirely. If you buy a motherboard on your own today TPM still wouldn’t be enabled. And their “support” never went farther than hardware manufacturers registering where Windows could pull driver updates from. So that’s just the worst take I’ve seen in this whole thing.

  My thing is if Sony wants me to pay computer prices, it better act like a computer. If it doesn’t and the trend continues with PS6 then that’s the end of me buying PlayStations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Despite Microsoft's push, Windows 11 and Edge see decreases in user share⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup. Same here. Funny though, I seem to have enough attention span to learn about Linux.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Despite Microsoft's push, Windows 11 and Edge see decreases in user share⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hilariously, they won’t even let me upgrade to 11.

  Can’t get people on 11 if you don’t make it available.

  In a general sense it is though. The long-term group did as well as the lump sum group.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The first results from the world’s biggest basic income experiment in Kenya are in - Vox⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, great. Then let’s actually do it. Everything below 100 percent implementation is a success so let’s stop handwringing over the size of the experiment and pull the trigger.

  Eh, batteries aren’t hard to charge as long as it’s a small item like a flashlight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Survive the zombie apocalypse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Flashlight, water purifier, respirator, and rifle (I assume with required things like ammo).

  Nobody said how this plague spreads, for all we know it’s in the water or Airborne. Flashlight for scavenging and because it’s far more important to know if that’s a pile of scrap or a Zombie than it is to stay super stealthy. And Rifle gets you everything else you need.
