Trapped In America

On it, archive.today can take a minute…

The exact missing pages:

qalculate is really nice. I even use it on Windows Enterprise installs that normally only have the old Windows 8(?) calculator included since the Microsoft Store isn’t a thing. It’s a huge upgrade compared to that POS.

Don’t worry, they’re gonna eat themselves doing shit just like this. It’s not a matter of if, but when.

“AI” has it’s uses (medicine, engineering, etc.), but 99.99% of the snake oil they’re selling are just gimmicky cash grabs. Classic cases of Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

Let them burn their money, I say. Fuck it. Just sit back and enjoy the fire.

I’m honestly hoping for a repeat. Hopefully Microsoft goes down this time too, since they’re heavily into AI. Twitter, Meta, Google and Amazon too. It’s really just the worst of the worst.

It’s more about the latency since it’s right over the border (<30ms). It’s also a full 10Gbps so I can let family/friends use it and don’t have to worry if a few of them are pulling the full 1Gbps from home connection. Doubt I’m gonna be able to match both of those with a Chinese VPS :/

Honestly looking at Mexican datacenters right now. Some are basically the same distance, just in the opposite direction lol

Oh ffs… my best VPN server is in Canada lol

Airbnb said he had been warned for violating its terms and told he would be removed if there was another similar report. The company told him that it could not verify the images he submitted as part of his complaint.

Um, yes you can, those are verifiably altered images and this is verifiably criminal fraud. Now stop beating around the bush, grow a spine and take some direct action. Cowards.

So Canada?

(They do have a history of going a little overboard with the homicidal stuff. But they’ve come a long way in the last few decades.)

Perfect for letting your buddies outside know when Tony’s wife comes to visit. Tony’s the guy you’ve been beefing with over your tater-tots every Tuesday btw. Oh hey, what’s this, his exact address too? Sweet!

You’re thinking of FreeDUMB, where you’re allowed to believe whatever you want. But Trump has to approve the position first (as stated) and it has to be the opposite of whatever the data/proof clearly shows. It’s like the Wish.com version of Freedom_TM, but that’s geared more toward Teaparty Gun Nuts and Libertarian Potheads.

Edit: Huge caveat I forgot about. Joe Rogan also has the ability to dictate FreeDUMB positions. So long as the guest making the claim (1) has no degrees and (2) they’re being suppressed by The Establishment. Also, Jamie has to be able to Google some random website that agrees with them in under 25 seconds.

I’m aware of the Penrose diagram and also watch PBS SpaceTime :)

But I was referring more to the frame of reference of our universe vs that of being inside a blackhole (assuming you could magically avoid being ripped apart by gravity). To an observer inside a blackhole, “time” on the outside would blink by almost instantly. I wasn’t talking about moving through an infinite universe or near/into a black hole. Just stationary, floating just beyond the event horizon, looking out. Hence the asterisk on basically*.

I was leading them to what MotoAsh posted. But they beat me to it while I was typing.

Edit: He even references what I’m talking about at 0:44 in the SpaceTime video. But from the frame of reference of an outside observer.

Yes, but if you’re beyond the event horizon of a black hole time becomes basically* irrelevant. You could literally turn around, look back out towards the rest of he universe, and watch all of time play out in the blink of an eye.

You know that scene in Interstellar where they land on the planet for 5 minutes, but 20 years passes for everyone else due to the planet’s mass? It’s the same thing, but a billion-billion-billion times more severe.

It’s encryption has been broken for some time now, which leaves it vulnerable to some pretty serious security issues. On top of the obvious issue of people with the right know-how just listening to your calls and reading your texts, which you probably don’t want.

(It’s also how most cops/feds tap phones these days.)

Oh, in that case, I assume they have you running Pro or Enterprise? If so, ignore what I said about disabling the Remote Desktop and Work Folder stuff. Work Folders especially though, they’re a complete pain (or were) and used pretty frequently. So you’ll probably be working with them a bit.

Bonus: If you use the new TSForge method, it’s a permanent hardware registration. Meaning you’ll never have to activate Windows again, just connect to the internet and it’ll do it’s thing when it calls home.

It also has ESU support for Windows 10, so you can register for the extended security updates after it reaches EOL completely free.

Just a tip: If you installed Pro or better you can use Group Policies (gpedit.msc) to strip the OS bloat down slightly more than the Home versions. Education and Enterprise also have the telemetry spyware completely removed. But they have a few extra things you’ll probably never use and you’ll want to disable (like their terrible Remote Desktop stuff, Work Folders, etc.)

(I dual boot for gaming. So I know the pain.)
