Enjoy sending telemetry to Microsoft only for your OS to get worse every time a new release comes out.
10 users are in the same bus as 7 users. Might as well downgrade to 7 once everything magically stops working on 10 despite working in the same environment prior, amirite?
10 does not magically become a privacy respecting, optimized OS after support is dropped. It is still a frankenstein combination of old native code and XAML bullshit among whatever other "frameworks" Microsoft plops onto their OSes now.

I used to have a wireless card that let me block all that. Many applications such as windows media player would start slow as it couldn't phone home. Windows is basically malware at this point, it causes wear and tear on your machine so it can spy on you and they turn around and feed that to AI

Not really a question but I just wanted to seethe

This seems like the most basic scam, just start selling different products while keeping the same listing and all your old reviews, how the fuck is amazon not on top of this? Obviously nobody's gonna go and report all the old reviews individually

that says a lot innit? usually a few people throw in something if the project is nice. if NOBODY is paying them it means they not really into it. if anyone paid them they should at least fucking say something in two weeks of their shit being broken

>usually a few people throw in something if the project is nice.
A few handouts are not enough to maintain full commitment of a big project. Most people will also not give anything if they can use something for free.

It is what it is. It's not a sustainable model, hence why you either get no updates, or they're very delayed at best.
>>
>>106809349
I also have a couple of projects that I offer for free and never took a single moneys from anyone, and offer support for them if peopel ask questions. not as many users as freetube and not as involved but still, I do answer if anyone asks anything. it's common sense. at least for two fucking weeks. and doubt it's just a single dude
>>
>>106809405
Maybe you are relatively well off compared to freetube's devs, anon. We don't know their situation

Maintaining software for free is a luxury hobby. I wouldn't mind paying for freetube if it meant consistent updates, but I don't know if it'd be legal for them to charge for it, it's probably not.

Kids at school are forced to use iPads and chromebooks now.

Every single thing you do is tracked from the minute you're born. Paper is obsolete everything is done on a glorified smartphone that captures everything you do. Grim.

already got one thread on this >>106808179

But no you're right, studies even show that putting everything on an ipad inhibits learning potential and makes people less tech literate because these fisher-price tablets aren't real PCs and don't train people to use real electronics. America's tech literacy in children has fallen for the fifth straight year in a row since COVID mandated that all kids must have these pieces of shit.

Coincidentally, you're only allowed to have the Google branded ones in school.

That's just how the Internet operates now. It's not even just a case of Google sabotaging Firefox (intentionally or not). Not that long ago TikTok was almost unusable on PC no matter your browser and, before that, there was some YouTube bug that slowed down every browser, Chromium or not, to a crawl. And all we can really do is wait for the inevitable fix, either on the website or the browser's end.
>>
>>106809379
For context, I don't use TikTok. On PC or otherwise. But I follow a lot of tech news and it was bad enough that several outlets reported on it. With YouTube, nobody even bothers reporting the issues anymore since they're part of the business model now.

Why is America such a joke and why has this been allowed to go on for as long as it has? You would think the first year that tech literacy dropped would be the last year these big smartphones would be allowed over traditional laptops in schools.

Because Google bribed the education system to force kids to use their Chromebooks.

You can install things and access the file system on Chromebooks btw.

It's a reflection of your own abilities through language. If you can think with language, providing the algorythm is neutrally morale in terms of formulation, it will think back at you.

How would you know looking at me that I'm a thinking human being? By having me reflect to you what you think thinking is, and you curate it.

However you can do things like checking if what you're about to say is actually correct, or even correct yourself after you said a mistake.

The Chinese Room thought experiment is an intuition pump to illustrate why functionalism as a philosophy of mind is false. I suspect some people still have functionalist intuitions, and some people are satisfied with pseudo-mental-states that are functionally equivalent (being able to reconstruct the product of thought, like code or text, without thought).

>>
>>106804972
i was recently looking into different cloud storages to back up my important stuff.

tried hetzner. had to provide too much data at sign-up (full name, home adress,...)
tried google. didn't let me pay without credit card

ended up just buying a 250gb usb drive, backed up my important data on it and sent it to a family member
>>
>>106804972
Onedrive used to have 1TB up to 5TB free for students now thy gutted that down to 100GB, still use it.
The most reliable free cloud storage for me is from mail.ru, I got 1TB free for more than 5 years now, haven't changed things, still fast.
Say what you want about the vatniks, at lest they're stable, many other services pulled their offers when it came to free storage.
