I love potty mouth!

But for the most part, he makes a good point. I don’t know how many times people told me “RTFM” when installing Linux. I have been RTFM for Gentoo Linux for well over a year now, and I still to this day never been successful at installing it in a virtual machine within VMware Workstation.

…ya, so did lab grown meat, that didn’t gain traction either. Yet another example of corporations trying to appeal to a product audience which is probably less then 1% of the world population.

It looks like it will take a specialist in embedded systems and microfabraction to figure out how to blow this garbage up out of future mother boards so it doesn’t risk causing the user problems they didn’t ask for or knew they were going to have without there knowledge.

Hope I’ll be receiving a Beta BIOS this year. I’ve had this 2200G since 2019 and not once I’ve ever seen it update the microcode.

I don’t know how people in the UK can just sit there and tollerate endless levels of government getting in the way of everything. That alone should be a wake up call remove apple products out of day-to-day life. Time to switch to linux before the UK ban’s that as well like Failbook did.

Kind of seems moot, because Brits are already legally obligated to provide British authorities their passwords.



section 49 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA) to persuade a suspect to disclose the password to the device so the police have access to the data.

… failure to do so, under section 53 of RIPA, is a criminal offence, punishable by up to two years imprisonment and up to five years imprisonment in cases of national security or offences against children.

This is what doesn’t make sense to me… You got companies like this:

They have the technology that can just destroy encryption on most phones. The Canada Border Services Agency has contracted them out, so the RCMP goes to them for unlocking things (which opens the door for ethics debates here just FYI) . When you have intelligance companies doing what ever they want cause government wont touch them, then it makes no sense to have these laws in place. Why wouldn’t Britan just outsource the hacking like this instead of having laws in place?

Pardon me, but the quote goes “Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they aren’t after you.”

I know you are joking, but I wouldn’t want anyone learning it wrong… Plus I think the original is much funnier somehow :person_shrugging:
