YellowKey reportedly works in Windows 11, Windows Server 2022 and 2025, but not in Windows 10.

The post you replied to never said "Chinese", it said "Temu". So you saying "Oh yeah Chinese people agree, Temu is garbage" actually proves... that it was a reasonable statement?

It still could've been said from a racist place or with undertones of racism, but it's not necessarily guaranteed. Temu is garbage. Americans think so. Chinese people apparently think so.

    How specious. Yes, Temu is trash mixed with treasure, but it's the exact same garbage you pay a premium for at online or brick-and-mortar retailers, so I find it quite funny when USonians act above it. You don't have an option for better quality that isn't as Chinese as possible without getting ripped off, unless you need cameras or the latest graphics cards. Temu encryption is good. American corporate encryption leans very bad. Just watch some cybersecurity conferences. More than racism I'm irritated by people using terminology wrong.

    Chinese people think Temu is trash and would never use it

    I find it quite funny when USonians act above it

    I'm going to stop talking to you now because wtf are you even on about. No one said anything about not wanting to buy Chinese goods. I specifically buy Chinese goods because at least their billionaires are kept to heel and are doing less to actively fuck over my life than Jeff Bezos.

    Also no one said anything about Temu encryption but you, so again, wtf are you even on about?

    Well, I'm happy to stop talking if you're the type more interested in catfighting than even interpreting the conversation correctly. GreenBottles did in fact start off saying Microsoft is using Temu encryption. If Microsoft was using Temu encryption then their customers would be safe & they would have a record of zero data breaches. I don't think farmers would buy anything important on Temu, I never said no Chinese person would use it. This is anecdotal from speaking to urbanites who were more interested in high-quality manufacturing for throwing some money around in the markets. Nevermind!

    I'm glad you buy your Chinese stuff directly instead of through Bezos, but I hope you can see that the kids using Temu synonymously with "dogshit" are being somewhat racist. Since this isn't based off a comparison with durable good from Amazon or the supermarket. Amazon support just isn't worth the markup. It's informed by propaganda spreading through unconventional means such as gore websites plastered with Russian and Chinese industrial accidents or hit-and-runs from the 2000s. Things change, and when that change is accompanied by a meme where a Chinese company is used as an adjective meaning dogshit, I think, well, the advertising firms that these Fortune 500 companies employ would feel quite chickenshit if they got beaten to the punch by natural slang developments. They'd be saying gee, I wish we got them talking like this five years before.

    They said "Temu encryption" as in encryption of a quality on par with products purchased from Temu, not literally as in using the same encryption as Temu.

    [sees someone doing truly burger-brained shit] what are we, a bunch of ASIANS?

    as usual clods act like you misparsed a message to pretend they're unable to grok it, rather than unwilling

    A. Not what anyone said, even if you want it to be so you have something to be angry about.

    B. Why would I use any AI? I'm not a braindead mouthbreather incapable of doing their own thinking and research.

    That's not what grok means you complete goof! I'm using the terminology Elon named "Grok" the groombot after. Would you give it a rest?

    Buddy, if I was angry with you, I wouldn't be explaining the basics of conversation to you. Imagine having this kind of discussion off the internet. You would never be like this. You would suddenly remember the versatility of language, and the point I am making, because otherwise you'd feel ridiculous.

    Americans, when you remind them they live in a world of shit they created: "You have to want me to like you or you're a bad person lol"

    No, I don't. You are pond scum. Put me on the phone with your mother. I'll give that slag what for. You were raised up wrong.
