You are very much correct, and don’t worry about the other comment. You see that elitist take scarily often in some of these communities. I saw one person try to argue that programs should be intentionally made less user friendly, to force people to become better at computers.

They literally don’t understand how most people think and only see things from their own tech perspective.

That NASA has done a zero-gravity intercourse experiment.

The 50th shuttle mission had married couple and it included spacelab. A pressurized and habitable module that could be isolated from the rest of the crew. Even before launch they were asked if it would happen, and denied it, as NASA has afterwards as well.

It doesn’t help that several of the listed experiments was about human health, developmental biology and included animals and eggs to study ovulation, fertilization, cell division and growth.

They’ve admitted that.

Someone at Pentagon was recently investigating UFO conspiracies and found that several kept looping back to them. And they realized that at least one was directly planted by themselves during the cold war to confuse the USSR about what weapons were real or not.

will there be huge power plants just dedicated to AI all over the world soon?

Construction has started(or will soon) to convert a retired coal power plant in Pennsylvania to gas power, specifically for data-centers. Upon completion in 2027 it will likely be the third most powerful plant in the US.

The largest coal plant in North Dakota was considering shutting down in 2022 over financial issues, but is now approved to power a new data-center park.

Location has been laid out for a new power plant in Texas, from a single AI company you’ve probably never heard of.

And on it goes.

Yeah, for some reason they’ve seemed to made it harder to find the actual start menu settings instead of more generic taskbar settings. So that’s a fair point.

Windows has this “feature”, where is the setting?

I assume youre talking about W11?

Because the “Show recently added apps” setting is third option in the start menu settings on W10.

Based on how ISPs seem to not get their CGNAT setups right, it’s not going away any time soon.

I reeally hope you mean The Satanic Temple? Because The Church of Satan is actually religious.

Go - Dough. God - Oh.

Or even “g’dough”, either way the T is always silent.

Some like it and some dislike it. A lot of it can be changed or turned off anyway, so most just pick what they like.

Then there are the RBG-phobes. They talk about it like it’s the devils work and seemingly get upset if other people have it in the privacy of their own home.

Far from most used, but very handy: ctrl+win+shift+b

It restarts the graphic subsystem, which can help recover from situations where game crashes or similar cause visual issues.

While you’re right to be skeptical, if they just wanted to collect data they would have an Android version. And their stated reason for not supporting it, is that push notifications on Android would require them to at store device-IDs, which they want to avoid for privacy reasons and being vulnerable to subpoenas.

Unless something huge and world-altering happens, there is a 100% chance that it will not disappear in ten years. That would take generations because of the outliers. Although it will massively reduce in usage, and it wouldn’t surprise me if non-food stores begin to phase out cash purchases in a decade.

China is already demonstrating this, since pretty much everything is paid for with a phone these days. And some vendors are using “no cash” signs.

Just remember that ctrl+alt+del is a system level interrupt that should always work as long as the kernel is running. Ctrl+shift+esc is not, and won’t work in some situations like being used inside a fullscreen frozen program.

They might as well have just said “Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain”.

Because a giant publisher swooped in, got rid of three old higher ups and replaced them with a guy who use to work at EA. And they instantly started talking about the things like this.

While they are worse now, part of the problem is that long time users already have many of the games that get big discounts in the newer sales.

I wonder how many hundreds of millions of dollars they’ve set aside for settlements.

Their comment was indicating that laptop batteries will be damaged if left plugged in constantly. Which is a thing that can happen with some laptops, and most old ones.

My comment was about how some modern laptops when left plugged in, will charge the battery and then start running directly from the wall-power once the battery is full. They bypass the charging once it is indicated to have a “full charge”.

That depends on the age and quality of the laptop. It’s been a while since some started directly running off the cable when the battery is full.

That’s because all the people who don’t have issues, aren’t going to make comments about not having issues in a community that is basically dedicated to shitting on it(seriously, check top posts. It’s not “haha linux funny meme”, it’s “windows bad” over and over again).

Even if they do make a commen,like you, they get downvoted by people who like to wallow in misery.
