With how fucking slow windows has gotten on my work PC with all the copilot bullshit, I’m pretty sure MS is doing the same thing. No proof, just a painfully slow machine after getting all the AI updates…
I hate having that machine in my house, on my network.
Somewhat different motivations though I’d say.
He’s only concerned because he knows his and his allies actions are so bad, one might say biblically bad, that he’s trying to control the narrative to look in another direction.
If this thread is any indication, we’re cooked. If this many people are willing to give the government the benefit of the doubt, after what we’re dealing with…
This will not be benign, it will seem innocent at first, but we’ll have given up yet another seemingly simple thing that will eventually be used against us.
boy, I wonder what palantir backdoors they definitely won’t have.
I mean, sorry if I misread your intentions, but your phrasing in such a thread in response to the OP appears to make a statement. You are also aware that the people cheerleading this war are echoing exactly what you said, in essentially the exact same words.
No need to be a dick.
Honestly, what makes us the world police? I don’t want protestors killed, but dropping bombs on schools is not the help they need.
lol, yeah, wife is a nurse, she brings them home for me :).
Reapers man, let’s just say I wash extremely well these days after cutting them up.
Thanks so much for the advice. I’ll look into it.
I actually have an ac180 for camping and using tools away from power. I kinda figured it was a bit of a waste as just a ups, and worried about killing the battery quickly.
Maybe get another dedicated one for the office where I need it…
Update- picked up a BLUETTI elite 30 for my PC. I’ll keep the 180 for what I need it for, and now I’ve got a smaller one if I need it. I almost bought another standard PC UPS, but I was swayed by the versatility.
I should probably look at the one on my server/network stack, probably getting close to time to swap the battery.
You have got to be goddamned kidding me. Literally this weekend I said to myself “time to get a UPS”.
And just where can one procure such a pile of towels?
Been on it for years, but reminds me that it desperately needs a hardware upgrade. Seems like now is the right time.
Anyone have any good suggestions? I’m still running an old pcengines apu2.
100%, I honestly wasn’t trying for a holier that thou attitude. Any snark was aimed at the higher ups in my professional life with that audit comment.
I too am guilty of having my personal stuff less than perfectly backed up. It’s better than most, but it is still not what it should be, so, that’s what I mean by it being so easy to not be backed up.
It’s so easy. I can’t tell you how many “backed up” environments I’ve run into that simply cannot be restored. Often people set them up, but never test them, and assume the snaps are working.
Backups are typically only thought about when you need them, and by then it’s often too late. Real backups need testing and validation frequently, they need remote, off-site storage, with a process to restore that as well.
Been doing this shit for 30 years and people will never learn. I’d guess 9 out of 10 backup systems that I’ve run into were there to check a box on an audit, and never looked at otherwise.
I too have been to Jamaica. That second bite of brownie was an experience.
And it’s all part of ai training data now too.
I used to wonder when I watched “Star Trek TNG” as a kid, how they could ask for and get such detailed biographical information of a long dead person, enough to recreate that person convincingly, in a holodeck. Well, I guess I have my answer.
I really thought I’d be living in something like the federation one day, instead I’m here boning up on the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition.
yes, work in progress actually…
