How could he see me?

It’s just one banana global computer outage, Michael. How much could it cost – $10?

And it’s not much more difficult to fix on Windows, except for the scale of the problem.

Also even if I had the space on my OneDrive (and I’ve even got 30GB thanks to some promotions from the Windows Phone days) my upload speed is dogshit slow and I don’t want to think about how long it would take me to upload the 70GB it wants to backup.

So yes, .sys is by convention on Windows is for a kernel mode driver. However, Crowdstrike specifically uses .sys for non-driver files and this specifically was not a driver.

I’ve lost some respect for shutting it down as hard as he did. I could see postponing some shows, dropping out of the Rock the Vote things they scheduled in October. Maybe more if they’re getting threats and have safety concerns now.

But going as far as to say that all future creative plans are on hold I think was too far especially. Though I can see if he truly was blindsided, that it could hurt.

Yeah Jables can’t really be associated with that. He might lose his spot in Jumanji 5: More Money Please.

It’s either that or a booting.

In addition to a lot of the default/optional lists built-in to uBO, I’ve found the Bypass Paywalls Clean filter to really help get rid of crappy paywalls, even without the accompanying userscript.

Mozilla had the same problem with h.264 until Cisco allowed them to use openh264 and ate any associated licensing costs. Just from a cursory glance, HEVC licensing seems much more of a clusterfuck.

Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish.

The key difference is its sorted by an algorithm designed to increase your engagement and view duration. And quite often the easiest way to do that is by generating negative emotional responses, etc

It doesn’t even involve drug smuggling. Like organized crime in the US, they’ve branched out into racketeering and extortion in otherwise legitimate industries. Tortillerias are also major targets of extortion rackets now in Mexico.

You could schedule it with cron. You usually don’t need to update the lists very often though, and you don’t want to either as you’re just wasting the bandwidth of the hosts of the lists, who aren’t making any money off hosting them.

I think it was something to do with the Fi-specific syncing of messages to the web version.

And yet Google still hasn’t rolled out RCS for Google Voice, and last I checked there was an issue with it and Google Fi as well. (It works but it precludes some advertised feature of Fi or something.)

I don’t even care if it’s opt-in. I don’t want dormant malware on my PC either.

To be clear. I actually like Windows 11. I don’t care about the general telemetry, though I disabled the typing data crap. Most of the things in the last few months about ads in Windows, about blocking apps, etc have been overblown and aren’t actually big problems in isolation. Even this is a little overblown right now as it requires an NPU which the vast majority of systems don’t have. But, this is just so tone-deaf and an obviously terrible idea that it needs to be put down hard.

I mean, technically Windows Hello also includes signing in with a PIN or passkey. It doesn’t require biometrics, although it does support them.
