My neighbor has multiple rooms worth of carpet buried in her yard. Seems last owner though it would make a cheap weed barrier when they replaced thier carpet. It's in ALL her flower beds and several other spots in the yard.

Here's the thing, you own the domain, set up what ever email alias you want and send it to your primary.

Let's be real here. Folks running Linux as thier desktop have a high chance of knowing what they are actually doing. Folks with rooted android phones have a high chance of having watched a 12 year old tell them how to root thier phone on TicTok. Which of these groups is participating in the more risky activity?

I'll probably get down voted to oblivion, but I remember EVERYONE had the same "I'll never move" rhetoric with Windows 7, and before that Windows XP. Ya'll eventually move.

I've moved 3 of my 6 windows boxes from 10 to 11 and it's not that much different. I just debloat the stuff I don't want and move on. Even that isn't different, ya'll remember nlite? We've been ripping crap we didn't want out of the OS for as long as I can remember.

Hell, I even remeber getting doublespace.exe off my old dos 5 disks so I could use it on my dos 6 and Windows 3.1.1 install. People who use Windows are just more used to tearing down what they don't want rather than building up what they do (*nix). Is it harder these days...marginally...is there more to remove...yup. But it's still the same crap we've always done.

I wondered what was happening. I got a notice my daughter installed this app (under 13 account) and was like why would she do that. We don't have any HP devices. Brother for life.

So many bad news headlines, this was a breath of fresh air, I could feel tension leaving my body as I read the article. As a father of 3 daughters, HORRAY! Gotta vote these aholes out.

He didn't abandon his dreams, they were the dream.

So the reason it does this is Windows update requires a reboot. So it installs the patch, reboots AND THEN shuts down. If your missing the final shut down it's becuase something is preventing it or you started using it again.

"...use a second controller to help friends in games."

I remeber playing Mario Kart in college and one of my buddies got his wireless controller from upstairs and put it on the same channel as mine. Everytime I went to take a corner or make a critical maneuver he would move the opposite direction and send me off a cliff or into a shell. He really did and excellent job of "helping" me.

Hopefully this will enable this sort of "helping" for people to make memories. (Clearly this has stuck with me for 20 years).

I'm gonna be the guy that says no. It's not an open world exploration game, it's more of an exposition game. Playing in small bits is likely gonna leave you stuggling to remeber where the story left off and what you were trying to do. Maybe if you did chunks of the story at once but even short sessions for me turn into hours.

Also depends on what model was used, prompt, strength of prompt etc.

No news here, just someone who doesn't know how to use AI generation.
