"that's not something that happens on PCs, which typically have dedicated power plugs, as opposed to charging via USB ports"
You haven't used a windows laptop recently have you? Outside of gaming laptops, they all use USB-c for charging.

Because pollution always obeys state borders.

And we somehow chose worse

Not sure that's true anymore. It seems like most of the non Maga GOP member are retiring or otherwise leaving office.

Also sounds like complete bullshit from some one with a political agenda. I know enough people who live in NYC and own guns to know that it is.

What's so difficult about growing trees?

I am just itching to give AI access to all my passwords, what could ever go wrong with that?

You'd be amazed at what people will overspend on to "flash wealth" whether they have it or not.

You can't get electricity from air?

Damn I guess the windfarms were a myth.

My tank is 17 gallons and I refill it about it every 2 weeks, maybe more.

Setup Wireshark and then do all that, you will have your answer. Do you think they can somehow hide their traffic on your network?

It's not hard, So not hard that we would have heard about it.

If you can't form an argument without a personal attack, you are obviously losing the argument.

Just an FYI

Again, this is easy to determine. You can legally wireshark your own network and look at the traffic. If MS were doing this, they would already be caught and it would be public.

Easy enough to determine. Wireshark while you are doing it and look for the traffic. They would already have been called out.

Wish I had mod points.
