Ya even more reason to keep my old vehicle.

I love how the burden of ownership has shifted back to manufacturers of things, yet they still sell us stuff that we “own” when we actually don’t, and they keep squeezing more dollars from consumers by doing shit like this.

Ah, I’ve been making these recipes for decades. It tracks with my cooking skills.

Comin again to bankrupt y’all again!

I use Joplin for notes.

Ok well… That’s sad. 🙁

I’m out of the loop. What?

All I can do is talk you up. I think it’s a lot worse than what you’ve highlighted.

I have it synced across 4 computers and my phone. You just need a central repository. For that I use nextcloud. I suppose you could use OneDrive, Google drive, box, sync thing, or something else though.

Looks good but I didn’t see an app. Is there one?

Driver’s license isn’t recognized while you’re walking down the street and a camera facially recognizes you.

You don’t need to be shocked about data scraping and identification. Been around for a very long time.

Yes they know where you entered by scanning your ticket but this misses the point. I’m not handing my facial data to some conglomerate that does God knows what with it. They’re 100% not just going to stop at validating it’s your ticket then throw away the data. Zero chance.

Well you’re giving governments and companies personally identifiable data willingly of yourself. More problematic is the companies part. This will be sold and given to other parties. Eventually the elite will have a database of everyone’s face. You’ll walk the streets and cameras will know who you are and where you are at all times. Not a joke, check out avigilon cameras.

I remember these dark times… It got a bit easier when smartphones were more prevalent.

A “tankie” is a slang term often used pejoratively to describe individuals who support or defend authoritarian socialist or communist regimes, particularly those associated with historical events involving military intervention, such as the Soviet Union’s use of tanks to suppress uprisings (e.g., in Hungary in 1956 or Czechoslovakia in 1968). The term is generally used to criticize those who are perceived to be uncritically supportive of such regimes despite their human rights abuses or authoritarian practices.

Yikes…

I built an amd system with Nvidia graphics card in 2019 and it works fine. Wi-Fi Bluetooth Ethernet 144hz display etc all work fine.

The same way.

Probably not. I guess it depends what you want to do in IT. And the org. Some orgs use a lot of Linux, and Linux is a whole different ball game at the enterprise level. It’s not just knowing about Linux, but how to properly manage, secure, and patch it at scale.

It might also depend on if you have previous IT experience. If you’ve got a ton of previous experience it could help.

What?

I assume he means with hardware fingerprinting. Basically websites can collect enough info on your computer to identify you and track you across sites.

I’m confused.
