Everyone else has covered most of it, but another “neat” tidbit: To my knowledge, 4chan’s protests and hacktivism against scientology was the largest coordinated action that community has ever taken.
Fucking 4chan. Land of the worst the public facing internet has to offer. Despite all their fucking racism, sexism, homophobia, supremacists… just overall despicableness… they came together in united action against this group.
I expect that a decent amount of sales of these are just people who don’t care replacing their PC.
I’d be shocked if there’s in any way a statistically significant amount of these purchases driven by the “ai features”.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but this has been tried numerous times in numerous places, and despite the positive results it only has ever become an option for workers at specific businesses (at best). I’ve seen this article many many times.
There’s been no widespread movement for it.
For as long as companies can’t even handle standardized work from home, I don’t think it’s likely that this will become a norm either.
“Year of the Linux Desktop” all over again.
ADL and some other groups got absolutely clowned on a number of years ago when they declared pepe a racist hate symbol, and instead of backing down they just keep trying to quietly push it again.
You can pretty safely ignore them.
Just block the bot if it bothers you. Then you never have to see it.

Fun, but sometimes the difficulty seems to be all over the place, particularly with running from pursuit. Sometimes you can lose them in a minute or two, other times the game keeps spawning in new cars in front of you with no way to dodge them without the ones behind you catching up.
Yep, and in the statement they’re referring to, it explicitly suggests that their users should set up PGP.
Some additional context:
It was made by 4chan users over a decade ago, when that sort of thing was accepted there as “edgy humor”. Make of it what you will. I think there’s been some growing up, since they don’t offer/support those domains now.
Context is important.
It was made by 4chan users over a decade ago, when that sort of thing was accepted there as “edgy humor”. Clearly there’s been some growing up, since they don’t offer/support those domains now.
Domains you could register an email with them at.
Ugh, yeah.
They were started by 4chan users, back when that sort of thing was more accepted there as “edgy humor”. Glad they grew up.
Yeah, I don’t know why they don’t have the normal “what is this” text from their main page at least at the bottom or something.
cock.li offers free email service with no personal info needed for signup. They’ve done this for 11 years, with no major outages to my knowledge, relying only on donations without explicitly asking for them or bugging their users.
I think at some point they also offered paid VPS services.
Very useful for accounts that you don’t want connected to your other “identities”, but where you’ll still need them associated with a real email for things like password resets.
It’s also tor friendly.
My guy, I’m a grown ass adult that does sysadmin work for a living in a full Windows/Microsoft environment. Just stop. You’re wrong about how Windows works.
Your meme is simply not how Windows works, unless you intentionally choose to disable the security feature of UAC while leaving Windows Defender on. At that point you’ve accepted the risk that you could do something to break your shit.
You turned off warnings for all the shit you say Windows sleeps through, but left Windows Defender on which keeps the exe warnings. The only way to get Windows to work the way in this meme is if you configure it in this non-standard way.
Your willingness to poke around with computers will serve you well, especially in the modern age as people are less willing to do that, but don’t assume you know everything just because you know more than the people around you day to day.
If you’re a sucker for side content, there’s a ton of short stories and novellas (even a musical) that the fans have translated: I just got Ending E | The Ark Wiki
Kept the setting alive for just a little longer, and added some more context to the world and characters. Massive spoilers for anyone who hasn’t beat Automata though.
You can embed other images in the post body, and in your comments.
So once again we have someone who doesn’t actually use (modern) Windows making false statements about how it functions, upvoted to the moon because Microsoft bad. They are, but this is embarassing.
Never change lemmy.
All of those things require admin rights, which is an explicit acceptance that you are now working with things that could fuck your shit up. Modern Windows, unless you disable UAC, asks you to confirm you’re sure you want to use admin rights before you have the opportunity to break any of the shit you claim it’s chill about.
Running an exe doesn’t require admin rights, hence the extra warnings. Plus a malicious exe could do all that shit without asking for admin first through a privilege escalation exploit.
I swear, people find more uninformed shit to complain about with Windows every day.
Yuck.
So when is the department of transportation going to pay the police department for each crime done on the DoT’s roads?
If all else fails, you can try using whatever the lastest community supported fork of Universal Android Debloater is. It uses ADB to remove bloatware, which bypasses vendor locks on keeping certain apps installed.
Obviously no real replacement for custom ROMs, but it’s better than nothing.
Are you shitting me? That’s such an absurdly low fine.
