Printers. Desk phones. Wmi service crashing at full core lock under the guise of svchost.

Without a call to action, this is just an insult.

Yep, between two very easy to ride bikeways and is almost a trap with a lure of "if you survive at least you can be safe after" meanwhile both drivers and cyclists struggle down that compressed corridor.

I occasionally watch random Brisbane bicycle YouTube despite not owning a bike like this guy https://youtu.be/DIFfss90y6U?si=ZtOClyDzPrAVJuWr

I appreciate his ranking system. I can't help but wonder if it's the same Chris.

This is no different to me having a email dedicated to searching for a house to give to real estate agents and someone saying "I don't think it's legal that a house has an email". It was frustrating reading up until your comment that people just didn't get it.

Google looks. Google reports. Even if you did nothing wrong you're guilty until you prove innocent and even then you'll never get your account back.

They seem like fully conflicting ideals. Sometimes technology is not the answer. Sometimes non technical controls are.

Besides, by the time the control for instagram is in, nobody will be using it under 30. My partner just told me "instagram really is our parents platform" while showing my mum's friend started following her. My mum and her friend are both 70.

Applying it further gives all kinds of bad vibes where platforms need to check your ID like a Brisbane night club, except these aren't Australian businesses. Tiktok forced to comply, if they did, validating that you're 18 via a digital license that the governnent authenticates Tiktok requested your details and now knows you went via link 'clickforabortioncontrol.track.tiktok.com' since they'll need to reply back to that url 'yeah they are 14+ bro' before you get in.

What a distopia.

BTW I've got a link for you for how ID got complicated that I configure: https://stack-auth.com/blog/oauth-from-first-principles this explains how to securely without leaking or impersonation, authenticate a user from a central federated identity management (like an online ID would need).

There are smart people, sure. But I'll tell you it won't be the first try, or the second that's correct.

Security is so complex that the smartest people often fail. Odds are stacked, privacy needs security. Failure in security results in privacy being lost.

Anyway I'm in agreement that it's a horrible world out there with real harm. But mandating less privacy is unlikely to result in a better place, in fact it's almost guaranteed to be worse and create more harm.

Today's justification for digital identity and state tracking of your browser history: "Think of the children!".

I spent like 20 minutes self hosting and running over tailscale so traffic is always private... Never had an issue. I've got over 20 devices accessible on it.

Easy to remote register over ssh just by sending the installer plus running with server name plus key, then setting a static password.

I still think gaming wide moonlight is great though. You won't really regret that.

The hand-etched apology will not appear on the company’s actual devices come global launch

Luckily the article addresses this.

Other then legacy and uefi does it have a CSM compatibility support mode? An option to enable usb initialisation before bios? Eg wait for usb initialisation?

Some "boot faster" options kind of reorder boot initialisation to a point where it's not holding the system back.

Though I'm really running out of suggestions.. I can imagine you're pretty frustrated. I know my Dell laptop was a pain to get the right settings to get usb to boot and the stupid 100db beep to silent on boot interruption.
