OpenAI really captured the essence of “oh shit I didn’t study for this exam at all so I’ll just try and bullshit my way through it”

Such is the price of freeedom.

What about the Space Force?

Counter point: Current-day Russia is many things but socialist certainly isn’t one of them. Inequality is massive and health care is drinking yourself to death.

So, you know, fuckin’ #BASED

Time for an anti-dog moat, I’d say. Full of robot sharks.

Okay, but this can’t go through doors on its own either unless it brings an arm buddy.

I don’t find that scarier than the cheap suicide quad copters we’ve seen in Ukraine.

'preciate it

That’s no true Scotsman.

No, protectionism exists outside of capitalism and even somewhat goes against the idea of capitalism, especially the free market kind.

That’s protectionism, not capitalism.

“What should we do to get more people working in the health sector?”

“Better pay and more manageable shifts!”

“Roll back privatization to shift the focus to sustainability over profits!”

“I’d just enslave the youth again.”

@4am@lemm.ee already explained most of it, Bitlocker comes into play because the recovery environment can be booted without needing to provide the recovery key for Bitlocker, the vulnerability that is being patched additionally allows bypassing the need to log into it.

That said, Microsoft frequently disables Bitlocker anyway to do OS updates, it really only works if you enable the additional pin feature.

In a healthy marketplace, these would be fireable offenses. Regrettably, the marketplace is far from healthy — Microsoft has the government locked in as a customer, so the government’s options for forcing change at Microsoft are limited, at least in the short term.

And that’s why nothing will happen to MS, except maybe line go down a bit. But then line will go up again so it’s all good.

Kinda annoyed by articles like this making it sound like security wasn’t always an afterthought at MS though. It’s just that it’s even worse with everything being forced online to push SaaS revenue.

Them just quietly throwing the towel when it comes to Bitlocker getting circumvented on Windows 10 because the recovery partition is too small is only the tip of that shitberg.

As long as decision makers will flip their shit when they can’t have PowerPoint and Outlook the company will just keep on trucking’

You are making it sound like China and its large corporations weren’t also very interested in profits and market domination.

I haven’t watched the show (yet) but the OST rules!

I find the political discourse, at least on some topics, very juvenile on Lemmy. You know, screeching about how billionaires aren’t people but parasites and need to die, hundreds of upvotes. That’s some edgy, frustrated teenager bullshit. Or at least it should be, guess some people never got the memo about inalienable rights, equal treatment, vigilantism and how two wrongs don’t make a right.

Seriously, this thirst for blood is disturbing and if it isn’t just venting then, well, look how the French Revolution turned on people. That wasn’t very poggers.

There’s also this idea that everybody who isn’t 100% on board needs to be defooed and marked, preferably as a fascist. Which plays into the hands of the actual fascists because the non-fascists hate each other too much to collectively tell them to fuck off, despite their differences.

There, that’s my venting done for today.

Man… in a better world Nintendo wouldn’t have a case because liberating encryption keys is the basis for interoperability, which is good for, you know, competition. Competition is good. Or so I’ve heard.

I believe a lot of it comes from engagement-grinders constantly pushing rage-bait for clout and clicks. Gender war and revenge sells more than that hippie shit.

I got one, even though they must know that I’m not a US resident. Hope the people who didn’t leave at least aren’t dumb enough to give them money. “Special program” bullshit reads like a scam mail.
