Why is it on a post it note? Did he write that himself and sign it?

I can’t read it.

90% sure I saw this guy at a Margaritaville in Palm Springs. Looked exactly like him, had a lanyard and had some sort of assistant walking with him.

I hear what you’re saying but hear me out: what if we could make money off it instead?

If there was a calf or bull around I wouldn’t walk through.

You can yell at them and they might disperse. If they don’t then you’d be able to walk through them.

Cows just don’t like to be startled, that’s about it.

Is slavery allowed?

Wouldn’t a tax hike only get passed through to the renter?

I couldn’t imagine having $20k in cc debt at the interest rates they charge.

I’m surprised they made it out their front door successfully.

How do you end up getting lost hiking when you don’t even have a water container?

I’m on a drug that’s $3k per month and my insurance only pays a few hundred of that, even though my benefits claims it covers 100%. I then applied for a coupon card which when used covers the remaining amount.

It doesn’t make sense because it’s all made up fairytale pricing.

The few hundred my insurance is paying is probably closer to the real cost but even that isn’t trustworthy.

Foot long chili dogs.

I think this makes the intermediate company a military target?

Her skin looks pretty good for a mugshot.

Ever since windows 11, edge, and MS’s approach to resetting defaults, I’ve stopped getting support calls from relatives. Yes it’s riddled with annoyances but it’s a net improvement over previous gen software. I see regular people struggle with tech and can tell things have improved dramatically for them.

Great read. Here’s the juicy bit if you don’t have time:

Could the industry conceivably make enough propylene and ethylene through pyrolysis to replace much of our demand for new plastic?

He looked three years into the future, using his company’s latest figures on global pyrolysis investment, and gave an optimistic assessment.

At best, the world could replace 0.2% of new plastic churned out in a year with products made through pyrolysis.

One one hand, this can be pretty annoying.

On the other, when thinking about the lowest common denominator general user that’s been tricked into running some awful PUP-ware browser, I can understand MS’s point.

It’s probably the browser, not the OS, that’s doing this. The teams are separate although someone in upper management oversees them both.

It was pretty simple to stop windows 11.

Updates will eventually restart but not unprompted. There is a combination of settings you can set that will install updates right away and restart soon after, but it’s not default.

The vpn issue didn’t affect all vpn software and a workaround was available.

MS adds features to their products and are pretty forceful about getting you to use them.
