“Was” is the operative word here. Us humans have no chance in hell against the deluge of generated slop.

If you have to do Microslop, then DOS is a sane option. Windows 11 is just too bloated and too slow in addition to being malware.

The danger of Steve Jobs hijacking his own private plane was obviously quite high! We can only thank the dutiful TSA officers for their brave service. I’m sure they risked their lives averting this danger. Have they been awarded any meda
