You press a button and it's gone. They're hardly intrusive. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
they're already pretty much there, intel 6th or 7th gen desktops can be had for like \~$100-150 and still offer plenty of compute power for the vast majority of use cases. HP Z2 G4 is a great option, got one for my wife as a gaming build and it was so nice to build in and perfectly reliable since then, so i picked up a G5 (10th gen i9) for myself. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
I want this to be true so much, but as a person who has used Ubuntu Server for over a decade, the Desktop version still gets me in trouble. e.g. when X11 gets pissed after installing a routine Nvidia driver upgrade and you can't get your UI back for the life of you. It's great when it works, but it's still not a great experience for the mainstream user. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
My hardware doesn't support W11. Not planning to upgrade soon either. What I have does a good job. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
Thanks for posting this, but it shouldn’t take 10 fucking steps to disable this. A simple “no and don’t bother me again” should suffice.
But they really want to show high adoption dates to the shareholders, no matter the cost. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
LoL is made by Riot, which is owned by Tencent. The AC runs at ring-0, in the kernel, and doesn't even stop running when the game is exited. It can install and hide anything it wants with impunity, and it doesn't matter if you have an AV, *you wouldn't know*.
Only a complete and utter blathering fool would run *anything* that hooks into the kernel that isn't absolutely trusted, *especially* not one made by the Chinese in an era of ever-increasing surveillance and tension between China and the US, with cyber attacks at an all time high. Given the popularity of the game, slipping a quiet backdoor to be used in case of emergency in with an update is a given. Not to mention it's an easy target and exploit for hackers or viruses.
Oh, and it's great for spying on you too, since it's running 24/7 and you have zero guarantee it will uninstall. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
If you're frustration with windows is that they're dropping support for your hardware long before it's obsolete, then I dont see how switching to Mac helps. Apple does they exact same thing. As an owner of an old macbook I get daily reminders to update MacOS even though my model isn't supported. The reminders are more frequent but less intrusive. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Good advice; I'd planned to add another small SSD for Linux to avoid partitioning an existing drive, but unhooking the spares to avoid accidents is a good idea. (And going to be a pain, I really should consolidate my drives at some point.) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
I have no idea what you mean and how you end with dependency hell. All i said was that I find editing a text file much easier than to kick a ton of commands into a shell, just to edit something in the system you can't change/manage in a much simpler way (= text files). | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
I tried installing the java version of PokeMMO on my Steam Deck. Doing so required a dependency which had the aforementioned dependency chain. This was last year, so I don't remember what packages they were.
That's also happened with a bunch of packages I've tried to install from AUR. Getting Pamac installed was impossible. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
you are off topic then. Your problem doesn't have anything to do with the fact that a text editor is a simpler tool than these registry hacks. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
S’il vous plaît réexplique sa dans le language des baguette | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
> ... and some ppl still say Linux is nothing for regular users, because you have to edit text files. But yes, a wall of text for Powershell is a much better way;)
That's what you said. Now reread my original comment. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
May you be right. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Everything will have been dumped into windows.old, unless you did a clean install (in which case... what did you think "clean" meant?) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
An EOL notice is quite different than a "Upgrade to new OS (upgrade not supported)" nagscreen. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

I DON’T WANT THIS! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Swapped out hard drives and installed Linux mint. If I ever need windows 10 I’ll swap my drive back, but I haven’t needed it in forever. Freedom! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

2025. Just saying "October" in your comment above implies that it's happening this coming October. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
They extended xp and server 2003.
I just hope they don’t charge for it, which is the current plan. I have an older machine that is a bit creaky but I think I can 2-3 more years out of it | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
>The only issue I've had is that I'm not allowed to upgrade to Windows 11. And I don't see that as an issue.
It will be October 2025. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Oh fuck, I misunderstood the date, I'm sorry, I thought next october was october 2025, Imay be stupid | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

This kind of shit is exactly why I wanted to stick with Windows 7 in the first place. The enshittification continues. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
No, that's just the tiny button in the bottom corner each time to skip the "upgrade." There is no such "stop annoying me" button. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
I have not regretted it a single day. However it's still painful that some stuff is windows only. For example I just got a new EV charger at home and the software to set it up runs on windows only. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Depends on what you want to do with it. But it's likely easier than you expected | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Just like when I upgraded my Windows 7 to 10.
Then my mother board died and I couldn’t use my Windows 7 license and I had to buy Windows 10.
Hence my reluctance to just upgrade.
Also they added a keylogger to Windows 11 that stores the data it harvests in plain text. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

Well, free market capitalism ensures that companies always behave morally because customers wouldn't stand for it otherwise. So, this must have more to do with socialism than business ethics. It is clearly the governments' faults for imposing these test requirements. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

They are horrible. This is one reason I went for a Tesla. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
> Honda said affected older models — the Accord, Odyssey and Fit — are no longer in production. The safety of the vehicles is not affected, it said.
As punishment, I think Toyota should be forced to bring the Fit back into production. So I can buy another one.

I don't think so. I'm almost certain they did it to save money. Why do you think it's not about money? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Doubtful.
Toyotas hold their value incredibly well, sure they are dickheads for doing this, but they still make great cars and face pretty significant terifs compared to American car companies. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Depends. Is what you’re doing structural (as in all/most branches/employees doing it)? Or is it just you? If the former, then yeah, it’s the executive’s board responsibility to make sure their company isn’t committing crimes. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

this plus Meta AI assist to replace authentic content might just be the death of this platform. at least for its intended use. could be used of course to promulgate corporate and political propaganda until it's just bots diss posting back and forth. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
When I get a longer ad on YouTube, I simply exit the app. YT metrics note the exit upon long ads times many. No need to delete app, just train it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

Legislation about limiting ads needs to seriously happen. It’s getting way too out of hand.

Funny how these companies are relying on views of the ads to support them, the more people they make mad with these torturous ads the more likely people are to delete them or stop using social media until they find out a way to force us to look at them like the sky ads in cyberpunk | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

I just did this to TikTok.
I spend way to much effort ridding my life of ads to just let them back in on an app. On my network I am running, Plex DVR with commerical cutting enabled, adguard network ad blocker, ublock on my browsers, sponsor block on browsers. I also run gocastblock and sponsonblocktv dockers both of which mute and auto click skip on YouTube ads on tvs. Tubular has replaced the YouTube app on my phone. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Thier whole thing is flooding you with ads because that's how they make money. Less eye balls for looking at ads, the less money they make. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

I've been getting these, multiple in a day. I report every ad and made a post giving them 7 days to stop, then I'm deleting my account. We're not vessels for advertising. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
That happens because the wrapper found a "better" pricing model. It's gotta make payments whenever it makes API calls to a site unless it's too small. That wrapper will be eating those API costs, and so long as it has something else pouring money in (ads, investors, membership fees, merchandise, contracts) it can sustain those API calls.
Some websites do make their API calls free or super inexpensive though. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Virginia has this privacy-destroying option as well. It's bad enough our cell carriers and phone makers know every damn thing about us. I'd rather the state didn't have that info as well. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

That's a logistical nightmare for the state.
Counties don't pay for 100% for their roads anyway. In fact, if they distributed based on road usage, suburbs will lose more of their road funds to larger cities and counties...... | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

That goes hand in hand with ending the suburbs or at least rezoning and redeveloping around the urban core.
You can't build effective public transportation in very low density or cloistered-off suburbs | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |

This is some serious tin foil hat insanity over putting your odometer readout on your registration. You need to get some help if your outlook on the tiniest changes is this bleak and conspiratorial.
Hell, I already give this information freely to companies when I get my oil changed or literally any other car service besides a car wash. If they cared about this information, they’d already have it and be using it, but there’s literally nothing you can do with it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
We could do a kWh tax as well. The infrastructure to track miles driven is ridiculous. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
Have any specific areas of waste you want to talk about? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-03-06 |
You’re right but you’re not selling it like an MBA. It will go more like this: “rather than increasing the tax you pay at the pump, we will move the increase to a mileage-based tax. By doing this we can lower the increase by spreading it more evenly so that non ICE vehicles pay their fair share.”
Two years later they will increase the mileage tax rates because reasons. A year after that they will find some budget deficit that they need to balance and they’ll increase the mileage tax and the gas tax. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Give free or super super low cost vehicles to anyone that trades in their gas car.
Offer the car companies more tax incentives to do help make this happen.
No idea if that would work | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Two more lanes will fix it this time! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Loads of travel nurses do it too, and other remote workers. There are entire services in states like Idaho, Wyoming, & Tennessee that will set up fake addresses for you to take advantage of lower taxes & fees in those states, while the worker earns high pay in the coastal cities. They’ll forward your mail, register your car, renew your drivers license, etc., establish residency. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Do you get subsidized child care, free public transit, free university or free healthcare? What do you get for it other than any other of the states? Take a look at benefits Berlin, Germany offers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Oof. For years I was an adjunct community college teacher. No school would give me more than 2 classes because they didn’t want to provide benefits. Sometimes I’d teach on 4 different campuses at 3 college systems at once (for about half of what tenured faculty made) trying to piece together an income. Getting taxed by the mile as well would have been a real kick in the balls. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Yes this is the problem and people purposely trying to annoy and deafen pedestrians and neighbors should pay a higher tax. I seem to remember laws about how loud a vehicle could be back in the 90's. Doesn't seem to be enforced any more on any vehicle. Trucks, bikes, or cars. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Actually you want length and weight and noise. Length is actually a massive impact on traffic, and incentivizing smaller cars massively lowers traffic. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

How much is each mile going to be taxed at? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
I'm not sure, they kinda just waive you into Mexico, and having a border patrol check everyone's mileage before you cross seems like a waste of resources. Cause currently there are no US border patrol stationed at the crossing I use going into Mexico. Unless you just self report? Which would be a nice loophole I guess...
