That's impossible. They don't even have that in space.

I'm not sure what your use cases and performance requirements are, but Windows works great in a VM.

I rarely use it, but I happened to fire it up today and after updating it I got a full screen ad to start backing up my computer to their shit.

Whoa whoa, has "eat the rich" been one of those situations where the hyphen/comma is in the wrong place?

It's really "Eat, the rich!"

I'm sober for Satan! How 'bout you?

Things are always calm and normal in the US while we're at war with another country.

I think that's why we're always at war, and why the effects on oil prices get all the attention. That's the biggest conceivable effect of the war on most americans in their minds.

It's like Europe is the city where all the people have to live with one another, and the US is the mansion out in the boonies with almost no neighbors, and the inhabitants are dicks to the few neighbors they do have.

needs more jpeg though

Living in the US as somebody who pays attention to the world and cares about people and stuff is absolutely surreal sometimes.

It's especially so when you're one of the last people to have had an analog childhood (The Oregon Trail generation represent) so all the adults you knew as a child grew up in the post-ww2 prosperity and genuinely believed all the American exceptionalism stuff.

The only thing it seems we are best at is striking the perfect evil balance where I can't decide if it feels more Black Mirror or more Hunger Games.

Yes to all, especially the driver attention one.

I have two options when driving to work. One is shorter and takes straight level roads through the newest part of town.

The other way is slightly longer but it's a twisty hilly road through the countryside.

I take the longer route every single day unless it is actively snowing or something. And now that hybrid WFH is a common thing, I don't often drive in the snow.

Then there's Pittsburgh. It's like Boston but when you take a wrong turn you end up on the wrong side of a mighty river or two.

Maybe this could finally help some people learn how sick you must be to be a billionaire, and how bad of an idea it is to give even more power to such people.

Probably not. But maybe!

It's well worth the minimum amount of extra typing and reading to say "installing from outside the Play Store" to push back against the idea of the locked down CorpoPhone being the default... or the norm... or the legal requirement.

It's a small push back commensurate with the small amount of effort, but it's a subject worthy of the attention.

I reckon that means it is not actually your own device.
