Absolutely. The security argument is used so often I’m surprised people aren’t more cynical about it.

They’re not offsetting anything, they still charge money for the boxed copy sold in stores. This is pure profit for them.

I think they’ll go even harder, making Windows only run stuff purchased through the Windows Store so they can completely lock in the market.

I was filling it out, but I have to ask, “What about Kbin”. There are several different interfaces that all communicate on this protocol. So I’m on asklemmy, but technically I’m not a Lemmy use, I’m a Kbin user, does that count as “Lemmy” for your study?

Anyone who still uses Unity for their new projects after this would have to be completely stupid. Of course they’ll jack up the pricing again as soon as they can.

I’ve started suspecting that a lot of people get through it by just avoiding their family… which, why get married then?

Microsoft didn’t have always on internet 20 years ago, in some ways they also have somewhat less competition now than before, since there were PC clones before while now it’s Mac or PC. Though your point does give me some hope.

Apparently very few people, somehow. Because the internet was filled with people explaining how it was actually much safer than writing them down in a book because “what if someone goes through your desk?”. I’m told it’s much safer to entrust your passwords to a third party over the internet.

We can only hope. The Steamdeck is definitely making huge strides in Linux market penetration. I’m worried that companies like Microsoft and Google will be able to force their way through sheer inertia and apathy and forced updates.

The mandatory DRM checks I think are 100% going to happen and I think that’s the reason behind the TPM requirement for Windows 11. A completely secure bios->os chain is needed to completely lock out stuff like VLC.

The Democrats should sue over this, you can’t have a judge screaming “coup” every time they get outvoted. I’m sure a room full of judges can figure out what kind of law this is breaking, almost certainly there’s some kind of “incitement” law on the books.

If you average out your knowledge in different fields of expertise you’ll realize you’re just as dumb as they are. This brings something that isn’t peace of mind, but does look very much like it. Though if your biggest problem is “people not understanding you”, I suggest working on your communication skills.

Yes, that’s generally how electronic record searches go. I don’t get why “secret” is bolded, since any of us would be getting the exact same treatment if there was a warrant for our own accounts. This at least is equitable in that it’s equally unfair under the laws that these very same people had no problem with when they were in power.

I can’t believe they won’t just use Bitcoin. If the EU weighs in then Bitcoin would probably get much more stable through sheer inertia. “But then they won’t be able to control it” I hear you say. Good, Bitcoin not being able to be diluted by any one government to try and tamper with the economy is one of its upsides. Slower economic growth is a perfectly fine tradeoff for not having 10% inflation year over year like we have the last few years and economists are basically the modern version of oracular priests reading the stars and just as reliable.

No they didn’t. The study is misleading in a number of ways.

1. The first version thought every number is a prime, the second version thought none of them were primes.
2. Their complaints about the code generation are about formatting stuff that gets filtered out by the chat window. GPT actually got better at outputting runnable code over time.
