I hear where you're coming from. The corporate shops customize fleets with group policy and InTune, and it's a hassle to do the same one-off at home. You might get traction with trying the IOT LTSC versions, which are often very s

I have absolutely seen them reinstall components like that, force their AV back on, force Windows Update back on, etc. It's probably actually good imo for the users I've seen, but admittedly "computer says no" is infuria

Hopefully everyone uses an Enterprise SKU of Windows so you can just control it with Group Policy. On Enterprise, you can use its built-in App Locker features to block the execution of any Windows component. I've used it to block Windo

That is probably the case, but Windows has always been schizophrenic when it comes to settings - there's the UI, the control panel, the second new control panel, the cli, group policy, the registry... Frame it as "it's 2025 a

The PMs can't start out being aggressive, though, that comes after dominating the market, right? ChromeOS and Google Drive are generally good products which are probably so as to get penetration and stickiness. Perhaps Gmail is a bette

It was both awful when it showed up in the enterprise and amazing at unleashing creativity for many. Most young non-technical people I knew during its rise had regularly made Flash creations or even games, and deeply enjoyed the Cambrian ex

At this point, the OS is mostly on autopilot for home users, and I'm not sure that's a bad thing - Google defaults to saving everything in a cloud, and the experience of Google Drive is pretty similar. The corporate user and the p

It has to be because apparently you need a huge menu several times what you can prepare fresh in order to be a restaurant. Some of the best restaurants I've ever been to had only a few items on the menu. At the same time, I've see

I actually agree with you that LLMs are so rigid and shallow as even a typical person appears as an ocean to them in a conversation. I just think Stallman is this broken-clock purist that offered no specific practical advice in this case. I

He's sort of right but in an unspecific way. "people should not trust systems that mindlessly play with words to be correct in what those words mean" Yes, but this applies to any media channel or just other human minds. It&#x

How does this intelligence work? Can you explain how 'meaning' is expressed in neurons, or whatever it is that makes up consciousness? I don't think we know. Or if we have theories, the error bars are massive. >LLMs find t

In the UK's own post linked below (also in the OP), they describe what's more than a digital ID number. It's credentials. Which humans are bad at handling. And there are always implementation flaws, because we're humans.

When a credential is stolen, its validity across multiple unrelated services is often checked by credential stuffing. That's just one type of simple attack. Has cybercrime been rendered obsolete with a government credential? Why is thi

This is also good advice if you're sensing people aren't as part of the group or team anymore, you...make them part of it again. Putting forth the effort (which may not be returned) of coordinating and including people is often th

No, because the existence of an underclass means it will be used. See agricultural labor and how an underclass prevents mechanization or wage increases. Luckily, administrators' salaries and endowments can cover fees, and rural areas a

I think it's because it seems like a Juicero to anyone who uses knives to make dinner regularly. We're fascinated by tech, and sure, I'd try this, but I bet anyone who has prepped with a knife for hours per week is probably p

Detach from reacting to them, invert the situation and give them what they’re looking for but not asking for. Generalizing heavily, but I have turned relationships around to somewhat functional levels like this with weak leaders who leaned

It’s true over leveraging seems to be the American way, but GP was saying, I think, that homeownership does not have the risk of a landlord ending an otherwise mutually accepted relationship. If this is still accurate, a third of renters co

Almost everyone I know has a significant portion of their wealth in home equity. The renters I know tend to have much lower wealth. This is reflected broadly in the US wealth distribution. You brought up a good point though, and that’s the

It sure could be, it could also turn into an Amazon-Tijuana situation at the negative extreme ( https://youtu.be/HFlsW9yulH0?si=n-FKLqVOEWWmDOpa ) In the pov of locals excluded (or let’s say not hired) from the factory, they

But why? The Chromebook user makes a doc, closes the lid, and finds their doc on their phone or web later. Why wouldn't the Windows user get the same UX? The expectation is that your data's available anywhere. Even linux users are
