Same way you disassociate driving home from work. With a blank stare and let muscle memory take the wheel. Then, same as the shower, you snap to and give a worrisome ponder as to whether or not you even stopped at stop signs, washed your face or washed your ass or washed your ass then your face but did you use your blinker the whole time?

Wanna know how you can tell someone never had sex in any water-centric location like shower, hot tub, pool, etc etc etc? They say its the best without knowing empirically that natural human lubricant secretions are lipid based and do not work well when mixed with water. The water washes away any oral or vaginal secretions leaving you with a feeling of masterbating with a dry rubber glove. Not as bad but it is not the warm american apple pie feeling youre used to. Orrrrrr maybe thats your kink, when fucking feels like a plastic slide on a dry bare skinned ass screeching down the slide like you have built in anti lock breaks🤣🤣🤣 its a fuckin weird feeling and completely unexpected the first time you experience it.

Thats all youre providing for this post? No article. No image. No citation. Me no vote.

You’re welcome to disagree with a bad law

You’re picking up what im putting down lol. Didn’t mean to say I was disagreeing with what youre saying just in this case especially:

It’s not your responsibility to close the doors, but it is your responsibility not to walk in an open door and take something that’s not yours

Where I’ve paid for each new pc build to just have a blank slate and not carry over my digital footprint for microsoft from one build to the next. Also, tho, im not taking what isnt already mine, im just using a work around for dealing with microsoft’s atrocious customer service.

Again, not saying this will hold up in a court of law, jist saying I dont lose any sleep over it.

Bonus rationalization: fuckin outlooks locked in and un-adjustable junk mail filters have auto filtered Microsoft own emails for upcoming annual Office invoices to my junk folder that I used to rarely check before getting slammed with over a $100 charge for Office eliminating my ability to use the email reminders as notification to cancel my subscription cuz even if you paid for a year of Office but wanna cancel a month into the year so you dont forget, microsoft says naaaaaaa you lose the remaining 11 months of paid software access.

Id disagree. Its not my responsibility to close all their doors that are accessible to the public. Microsoft provided all the tools to use their software without their involvement. As a US citizen, I’m liable for my own negligence and/or ignorance. Corporations are pegally protected under corporate personhood so the same liabilities affect them too.

Not disagreeing but this isnt a form of pirating. They didnt break shit, they didnt hack shit and they didnt exploit shit. Microsoft built their entire DRM software in a way that was able to be recerse engineered.

Again, not contradicting anything you recommended. I just wanted to point this out for any lurkers because I cant encourage this option enough for anyone forced into putting up with Windows. You are actually uaing the same activation codes that microsoft themselves generate and distribute to their customers.

I can confirm it works for Windows 10, 11, for any iteration of 23h or 24h, all Office applications, both individually and packaged, visual studio, and I wanna say Adobe but that one im not 100% on.

If your pirating which for end users is the only way to get LTSC, just run Windows Server.

Its been over a year and as I said above im going off memory but I think I went with IoT Enterprise because of how nominal the differences were from Windows Server but also wanted to check out the IoT Enterprise because my cousin was starting his own fabrication/manufacturing company at that time and it was a good opportunity to see what his options were for future scalability that came with IoT Enterprise.

I mean, not to be a dick but, if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and expires after the year like the trial activation method… it must be a free trial duck lol. /s

Aka im all out of ideas or recommendations.

Yeah but there were methods for activating it with a trial activation code that only lasted a year I think, a method for activating ut offline permanently, and also a method for activating it using an annual reactivating activation code that, again *******was set it and forget it for as long as windows 11 enterprise will be supported

Na there are a bunch of caveats and different types of Windows 10/11 Enterprise and specifically IoT Enterprise.

Go back to their wiki pages cuz you are guna have to re-do the activation process and should nake sure you are setting it up per the provided instructions. Ive had windows 11 Enterprise IoT running for over a year now and its the best exclusive to Windows/Microsoft decision I ever made.

Microsoft makes a relatively great product in its Enterprise line, stripping most of the spy/bloatware out and allowing simple user configuration settings changes to kill the rest, plus all the advertised tools/software that only comes with an Enterprise shit.

Then they strip all the useful tools out, facefuck as much bloatware as they can jizz into your PC while buttfucking even more spyware into your PC raw dog style with so much breaking of everything with every fuckin update they release and call that fucking bastard Windows 10/11 Home Edition.

Im sorry I forgot what this conversation was about buuuuutttt fuck Windows in their fucking fuckhole is the TLDR.

Edit: This is all going entirely off memory wirh a huge iirc asterisks on it. I definitely remember having to do the set up over and over again, tho, figuring out which version was the best option for my use. I got the bitch set up now with local account, zero microsoft account affiliation and dont update fuckall unless its severe severe severe security risk. Its the best and most consistent my PC has ever ran.

Fake as fuck cuz noones mom is guna fight about putting on a seat belt.

They’re just following the same market trend thats been happening since before the 90’. You cant buy the steel from a mill cheaper than you buy the finished product from China. American manufacturing has been dead for half a century. Itll prolly happen in Europe too. So here’s your get rich EU scheme: start fuckin fabricating. You buy the manufactured parts from China because the quality is really hard to fuck up when it comes to machined steel parts that ship with MTRs. You take those parts and weld them into your finished product that you sell for 100x’s the actual cost to make.

All the more reason slapping tariffs on imported goods was and will go down in history as one of the fuckin dumbest economic decisions every made by any controlling power.

100% first thought that came to mind was CNA (Certified Nursing Aid) for an alzheimer/dementia unit before seeing rhey got summers off.

Ive done both but always go to the first interview. It all depends on how the interview goes. If they seem desperate for help and seem to have high hopes they found their guy, ill flat out tell them that I will be allowing my current employer to match their offer. Thats only happened a couple times over the 5 times I’ve done this. I try to bring no less than 3 offers to the table for my employer to match. So even some of the shittiest companies I had zero intentions of committing to, will still be used.

The two biggest cards in my deck tho, in my opinion, are 1. That most people who work with me know that I dont balk at much. If I say im guna do something, I make sure I do everything in my power to make sure it happens. 2. Im 37 year old male unmarried and childless, my risk management allowance is muuuuuuuuuch wider than most people I compete with on the job market. If my current employer doesnt match someday, then I have no problem jumping ship and changing course.

The key is that your employer knows you would jump ship if it comes down to it. At rhe same time, you need to know what your value is for your employer and the cost they will pay to train ypur replacement so they know they aren’t only retaining a valuable asset of their company bit theyre doing it at a lower operating cost than it will cost them to train someone compleyely new to get them up to your current work load.

Before every 3rd annual review I set out getting competitive wages from competitors to bring to my review for my current employer to match or else I accept the competing offer and my current employer can use my annual review as my 2 week notice.

Has worked 5 out of 5 times accross 3 different companies over my 20 year work span.

Well that confirms everyone of my fellow Buffalo Bills fans are raging alcoholics 8 weeks of every year but noone really needed a study to come to that conclusion 🤣🤣🤣. Buffalo, NY: a drinking town with a football problem lol.

Homie, I hate to break it to you but you are only outsmarting the idiots who defined what the AI is blocking. Look at how many times Trump repeats the same fuckin buzz phrases. The same idiots prolly gave the AI engineers a list of fuckin phrases like “does trump have dementia?” And the engineers are prolly like, “well this is fuckin stupid so were guna comply… maliciously… mwhuhahaha” then they just define the AI parameters to ignore prompts verbatim to what was on the list and nothing more. Im definitely not one of those peeps but id fist bump them if thats what they did lol.

Thought the same thing too… until I learned how to use it lol

I killed the js to remove the pop up blocking the article but Im not sure if this is the entire article:

The AI bubble is 17 times the size of the dot-com frenzy — and four times the subprime bubble, analyst says

Artificially low interest rates have stimulated investment into AI that has hit scaling limits, says research firm

It’s not just a bubble but an epically sized one, an analyst argues. Photo: Getty Images

For good reason, it feels that the only major discussion in markets is whether AI is in a bubble or whether it’s actually the early innings of a revolutionary phrase.

So here’s another one, decidedly from the pessimistic camp. It’s a take from independent research firm the MacroStrategy Partnership, which advises 220 institutional clients, in a note written by analysts including Julien Garran, who previously led UBS’s commodities strategy team.

Am I missing the real article or is this the entirety of it?

Jesus he literally looks like the Asian version of Wormtongue from lotr.
