I don’t screw them in unless it’s in a confined location where the cable is applying pressure to unseat, or if it’s fallen off at least once

I’m guessing being able to turn it off and not change during an update is a business grade feature. I’m guessing at least windows 11 pro will come with a permanent off switch

To my knowledge, there isn’t. But you can ask the person to turn off recall. I’m going to be running 11 in a VM myself so /me shrugs

Modems can still make noise. As recently as five years ago I still had to work with modems. A lot of them now have silent mode though

You come from a nice family. My family disconnected each other all the time

I don’t believe that you don’t believe me

I don’t believe you

I’m confused. You don’t know that the sun will rise tomorrow - you believe it will. Science is our best guess at how the universe around us works. Geocentric was how we believed the universe worked until that theory was proven to be wrong.

You know the current theory, and based on that knowledge you can believe it will rise. There could be some phenomenon that will turn the sun dark for 7 days that is not part of the current model. It’s unlikely, but possible.

Knowledge is the understanding of that which will not change. Yes, you can modify the theory tomorrow but it will not be the same theory as today. That’s why it’s knowable

I only joke about Arch being the superior distro because, well, I use it and because it’s apparently a thing.

I actually don’t have any strong feelings about Ubuntu. It’s a distro. It works. I only use Arch because of the AUR (I’m lazy, okay?). I don’t have strong feelings about it either. Linux is configurable to basically exactly what you want. Once (or if) you get into customization you just pick the distro that allows you to get to what you want faster.

I do have strong feelings about Windows though.

Uh oh, I think about Canada a lot.

I don’t think about Iraq. Should I?

We need to see proof of those WMDs first

No, Bush, you have to have actionable intel.

Wait, why would you not call 911? Murderer on the loose sounds like an emergency to me

Ugh apparently my asterisks turned into italics.

All the words with wcs should be functions. Not sure about the rest of them

wcs?

Ew. Hexagons are the bestagons

I thought it was called dwell time

Ustedes should be hablan

No I don’t approve sex work. Who am I? The sex work administration? Do you need a stamp from me to perform sex work? No?

Then who cares?
