Mentioned this in another comment. Take that second dism line, and put it in a batch script and make it a scheduled task that runs at login. Or use a Powershell script to make it a little smarter - check if it’s enabled first and then disable it if it is.
Modern problems require modern solutions.
You need to make a Powershell script or batch that uninstalls/turns off the feature and then make a scheduled task that runs the ps1/bat at login.
Its insane that this is what you have to do to keep this shit off your system, but it’s effective.
I had to do this with New Outlook because it kept reinstalling after Windows updates.
I would love to hear more of these stories.
I was looking to book a hotel recently and one of the hotels listed “Every room equipped with iHome radio dock” as an amenity.
What year is it?!
Yeah, my understanding is that these capchas were made to harvest data to use for AI/Autopilot driven cars. That’s why they are always having you identify motorcycles, bycicles, crosswalks, stoplights, busses, etc. It’s all stuff that automatic driving cars have had a hard time identifying.
Any given second he could go mad postal
Honestly wouldn’t even be that difficult to build. Windows is just a GUI for Powershell anyway.
Is there a simple way to find out if your Information was in this leak, and what information it is? I use haveibeenpwned for leaks linked to my email address, but from I read in this article, it’s not linked to my email address.
So how do I found out if my data was leaked without paying for a credit monitoring service?
And if I understand correctly, they are safer because there is less chance of parts touching inside. I don’t know the correct t terminology, but one of the big problems with current li-ion batteries is that if they get physically damaged, parts inside can touch, which basically starts a short/chain reaction that turns into a dangerous thermal runaway.
Also if I remember correctly the guy that invented li-ion invented some kind of solid state battery with glass right before he died. I’m assuming this technology stems from that.
Please correct me if I’m wrong on any of this. Knowledge is power.
Also in the context of working, this isn’t just computers. It’s tools in general, and a computer is a type of tool. Problems with your saw? Problems with your batteries? Problems with access to electricity and your extension cords not being long enough? Problem with losing your 10mm sockets? If you’re a trucker or driver the problem could be your vehicle. Etc etc etc.
This article is stupid. Tools break, they always have and always will. The tools we have now are better than they have ever been. They will probably keep getting more and more efficient, but they will still break. Because tools break.
Somebody get Mike Lindell on the phone, I think we figured out a way to make America great again!
Yup. I can say for sure that SSDs were certainly a game changer, but now we have systems with like 10x the processing power that operate at the same speeds because the power has been spent on poorly optimized code and bloatware.
Sigh… I’m going to have to start fucking around with Linux, aren’t I?
The worst part is that Windows can do that, but Microsoft insists on enshittifying it. Like Windows 11 isn’t that terrible if it wasn’t for all of the data collection and advertisements and other shit.
I miss the Windows 7 days where you could download a stripped down ISO that was just the OS. It launched your programs of choice and didn’t suck up your battery running unnecessary junk.
All of the towns for me were black and white…
I was still rocking a Gameboy Pocket.
Ahh yes. Reminds me of my teenage years. Experimenting with Marijuana, pirated MP3s, and the Milkdrop visualization plugin for Winamp. Those were good times… Real good times.
It is however acceptable at the supermarket when a product says “Made with 100% white meat chicken”
I am saying this with all seriousness. Have you had your eyes checked recently?
A friend of mine was complaining about the print quality of some text on a can and I was like “hah what? Lemme see” and it was perfectly clear (just like the bear emoji or any other emoji for that matter).
You may need glasses.
That reminds me of this clip. I showed this to a few people who also agreed that fish are not animals, at which point it turns into an argument about about Domain - Kingdom - Phylum - Class etc and I feel like I am losing my mind. Getting gaslit by stupid people is a frustrating experience.
Cool, thanks for the info. This is something I have wanted to setup for a little while now, I just didn’t understand all of the nuances.
And what exactly is stopping me from scanning library books and uploading them online? Are you going to ban libraries too?
Actually, let’s not give them ideas.
