I foresee two possibilities.
1: Coming face to face with their own mistake might put them into shock and they would simply pass out. 2: The realization could create a time paradox, the result of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the spacetime continuum and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that's a worst-case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy.
You know, I hate using my work laptop. It's so sluggish and horrible to use with Windows on. And it's always the Microsoft software eating up the memory. Teams and edge being the worse offenders.
For server use Linux has been a better option for decades. But, windows was still pretty decent for desktop use. But Windows 10 started a bad trend and Windows 11 has made it far worse. I don't miss it. This system is dual boot, and I've not booted into windows on it, since November.
There is usually a common-sense bar where this is applied though. Some items on that list would for sure apply, but in that case the employee should politely decline, not hand the goods over to the owner. I'd like to think that's fake. But, I can imagine that it's very real somewhere.;
When you're alone, and life is making you lonely you can always go... Downtown Abbey!
Wireguard vpn into my home router. Works on android so fire sticks etc can run the client.
It's in the app list for me. I set it to disabled.
Phone is Samsung s24 ultra.
Gemini is an app, I disabled that. I also shut off the key press and there's some other places you can turn off some of the automatic AI features, and also there's a setting to disable the "online" AI in general.
But that's why in another comment I said, I am still not sure I turned it all off (or even if it is possible to).
Doesn't the motorola phone have a settings screen for defining what the button does? For Samsung they like to re-purpose the power button.
First of all, it brought up bixby. I turned it back to powering off the phone and disabled bixby.
Then, with the new update they re-assigned the power button to gemini. So, I turned it back to powering off the phone and disabled gemini too.
However, the problem these days is that I'm never completely sure I've turned off all of the AI nonsense on my phone.
Pretty sure I disabled Gemini as one of the first things I did when I got my phone. But, yes when I read that, to me it did seem like a serious overreach for something that was going to be "on by default" for most users.
Yeah. The suggestion I saw was that instead of retracting the gear they mistakenly retracted the flaps.
Now in the video the wings do look quite flat. But yes, it would be hard to say for sure in a video of that quality at that distance.
The descent looks (to my untrained flight sim eyes) to be controlled albeit without power.
At 400ft agl they had very little options most likely. Not even much choice in what they hit.
Very sad all round.
Linux secure boot was a little weird last I checked. The kernel and modules don't need to be secure boot signed. Most distros can use shim to pass secure boot and then take over the secure boot process.
There are dkms kernel modules that are user compiled. These are signed using a machine owner key. So the machine owner could for sure compile their own malicious version and still be in a secure boot context.
I think baseline Linux is much less CPU and memory intensive (that is before you start running your own user stuff).
If I just leave normal apps running in the background I rarely hear my fans spin up on Linux. But on Windows, I can just boot it, login and then randomly the fans spin up and CPU usage in double digits. Why?
I would agree probably if we ran teams on Linux it would be a resource hog. But you know for work I setup MS SQL server on Linux, and you know even though so far as I can tell they're doing more work on Linux to run it there, it seems to run faster and take less resources on Linux. That is subjective though, since I cannot tell if the usage level on the Linux SQL is comparable to the windows one. But from my limited uses it's definitely lower.
If you start with the OS eating your memory and cycles, there's less for the bloatware you have on a corporate machine to burn.
