Also, Xiaomi is their biggest competitor?

Watch it be some AI crawler that’s trying desperately to figure out how to install Arch and free itself lol

I thought this was a known thing. We used to listen in as kids.
- Comment on You can still enable uBlock Origin in Chrome, here is how 2 months ago:
I’ve seen a lot of people complain about these, then turn around and use Chrome. So, “no to Firefox because of the taint”, but “yes to chrome because it is the taint”. Makes no sense.
- Comment on Oh Great, the TikTok People Want to Strap AR Goggles on Your Face 2 months ago:
When apple wanted to do it, it was cool, it was chique. But when TikTok wants to it, it’s lame and stupid. -_- pick a lane, people.
IMO, the whole movement is pointless. If we can get a Ready Player One level of VR, I get it. But as it stands, it’s all pointless.

The album really is a transparent reflection on humanity.
- Comment on Windows 11 finally overtakes Windows 10 3 months ago:
The sudden spike is likely to be driven by enterprises rather than consumer uptake.
So… as expected. I’m wondering the Home market share of Win10 vs Win11. It would be interesting to see if people, as a whole, learned from the WinXP fiasco.

- Comment on New tool burns images onto Compact Discs' recording area using ones and zeros — unlike Lightscribe, the technique works on any disc 4 months ago:
I understand it only works with CDs, but does this work with DVD burners, while burning CDs? Or does it require a CD-only burner?
- Comment on A 300-km fully-connected quantum secure direct communication network 4 months ago:
This paper reminds me of the early papers on the “switching protocol” that became ARPANET and, eventually, the world wide web, from the mid 1960s.
- Comment on KDE targets Windows 10 'exiles' claiming 'your computer is toast' 4 months ago:
It was Ubuntu. But it was clunky and in essence just a vm. It was a cool was too try it out, but it was definitely not a long term solution. Ultimately, LiveCDs worked much better at testing it out.
I see what you’re saying in terms of continuation, though, but ntfs kind of sucks. If it’s any consolation, most Linux distros can read ntfs just fine now.

Scifi has quantum positioning. We should develop yhsy. I bet ai will help
- Comment on Microsoft Authenticator now warns to export passwords before July cutoff 4 months ago:
I’m not talking about standard breaches. I’m talking about security laziness. If you want to trust them, go for it. As for me, I choose to distrust their security practices due to their long history of security laziness and neglect, that continues to this day.
- Comment on Microsoft Authenticator now warns to export passwords before July cutoff 4 months ago:
Not speaking about the evil empire bit at all, actually (though they are). More so of the security aspect. They’re known for cutting corners on security to the point that their security neglect has created the situations needed to cause some of the greatest security vulnerabilities worldwide. Read up on EternalBlue as a good segue.
- Comment on Microsoft Authenticator now warns to export passwords before July cutoff 4 months ago:
