The ZF Micro "ZFx86" SoC lacks the needed instructions and thus will no longer be able to run new versions of Linux.
These are used in embedded systems, so impact is likely to be on some industrial controllers.

On the up side, the Vortex86 line is more common and will continue to function fine with new builds.

"[W]ould rather let people die" was merely an illustration of how immovable they are, it was not literal in regard to life-saving regulation. Take your nonsense and be gone.

The solution to this is simple: Reinstall Windows 11. Dell has their own proprietary reinstall system that is slow as hell and a total pain in the ass but it does work.

I have little doubt that Microsoft is not going to be happy about this at all.

What we need is a long and drawn out decade or more battle with multiple levels of appeals that ultimately costs both companies dearly until one finally gets the Pyrrhic victory that they deserve.

Fuck 'em both.

Given the rate of turnover for celebrities, this is a Pyrrhic victory at best.

It is absolute stupid but the fact that it works is precisely why they should be held responsible for what they promote.

Regulation?! *faints*

Unfortunately, this is the kind of reaction you can expect from most politicians in office. I'm fully aware of how the system can be corrected and I know there are a lot of ideologues who would rather let people die than do anything to fix it. This of course is by design as they are the result of selection bias, being promoted by corporations and the wealthy. Yet again, another system they desire to keep broken. The powerful do not care for an effective government, merely one on a leash.

The ruling promotes a disincentive for people to learn about what they are promoting. If you can get away with defrauding people by merely being ignorant of how the fraud works then why would anyone look any closer at a company that is waving a bunch of cash in your face?

It may not be the law but I'm in favor of everyone that promotes a fraud as being responsible for their part of the fraud.
Should closing your eyes as you approach a traffic intersection remove any responsibility for hitting pedestrians crossing the street? Why should such a thing be true about fraud?

Why does it have to be one or the other? Why not suggest they "also" focus on the issue you care about?

I agree but unfortunately, this runs counter to our system of woefully unbalanced capitalism. I say this because under the current system, producers have a disincentive to reduce production, have a disincentive to make things reusable, and almost no incentive to make things recyclable.

In order to balance the economics of the equation we need to make producers financially responsible for the cost of recycling that which they produce. The result of this is an incentive to reduce the amount produced (to reduce overall recycling costs), an incentive to ensure products are more reusable (to reduce the amount needing to be recycled), and an incentive to make it easy to recycle (since they have to pay for it).

Some people point to economic systems as being the problem but really it's lack of responsibility that is the problem.

To be fair, I only picked Luigi because Mario is a psycho that jumps on turtles for fun. I can't believe some people call him "super'.

I haven't seen a new PC be released that can't run Linux. It may not have support for every bell and whistle yet but the fact remains that there is an alternative to Windows if you so desire it.

Read it again because i replied to the claim, "To be fooled, you must have believed in something irrational."

False. You merely need to make a minor assumption that is incorrect and be unaware of the error.

And yet you cannot know everything you do not know.

That is correct in a manner but also a vast oversimplification. Regardless, this does little to support your perspective, especially since their modes of operation are completely unrelated.
