Could we please just leave them all alone and add these "features" into a new app that I can uninstall or ignore? Thx.
Ha ha ha, No, here at Microsoft;
"We're not happy, until your not happy."

I'd just like it not to become unresponsive for no apparent reason.
When I still used windows I found larges numbers of files in MyDocuments or Downloads caused this. Move most files elsewhere and don't auto set background virus scanning on them.
Windows will just keep fucking with you no matter what you do. I was spending more time undoing update damage than getting work done.
If there's centrifuges to separate out different isotopes of hydrogen, helium, or whatever else is used for fuel then those same centrifuges could be used to enrich uranium or plutonium into something weapon grade.
I am not a nuclear engineer but neither are you. Not all neutron sources are suitable for breeding more fissile material, not all isotopic separation tech is applicable to all fuel types, not all materials absorb neutron equally. When creating a list of reasons to cast shadow on a tech reading more would be in order. Here is just one mistake, I don't get paid to find them all. My bias on this, centrifuges probably work better on heavy atoms, diffusion on lighter ones.

I'm not the fusion advocate I used to be, but the idea isn't dead yet.
only replying to say: 'when did slashdot break the 10mil UID mark!?'
It was ratcheted up in several stages a few years back. Uids seemed to jump from 2mill to 4mill then 5 and 6. It might have been troll control, new owners inflating #s, or just lazy programming. Bottom line don't trust anyone over 1,000,000, the real number of users is closer to 2 or 3 million (ish).
The real question is how intentional that automatic update was broken.
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. (apologies to Clarke)
Never dual boot, Microsoft will find a way to screw it up. Year's ago I found out that Microsoft and Linux would fight over time zones and system clock offsets, that's when I sent Microsoft packing. Keep an outdated Windows machine for the MScrapps and use a better Linux machine for day to day.
I have Cyberlink's PowerPanel installed on my windows machine to monitor my UPS
The Linux version of PowerPanel install pkg is less than 5MB, with a 16MB pwrstatd, and maybe uses some libs. The interface is terminal only, but the lights don't dim when it loads.
As a side note, the battery has six seconds of run time after two years of very light use.
I'm not strong enough or together enough to hang out with and handle crazy people.
Look at your screen, read the comments, do you know where you are? I believe the phrase is "One of us". So maybe freaks would be more accurate.
The potential for surveillance is high, but no one knows how to steer the ship
I never read speeches or talks from any politicians, but this smells Trumpy. Are you being sarcastic, serious, or just having a stroke?
No way to get ahead? FUCK THAT!
I've been in this employment/rewards game since the 70's, there is no getting ahead. Inflation, recession, stagflation, its all economic gambling, spin the wheel, take a chance, too bad kid you lost your life/savings better luck next time. I'm retired and watching it all evaporate and hoping I don't have to eat cat food. The cake is a lie!
Maybe the blockchain, or AI, help me Obi Wonna Tarrifinski.
The COVID lab leak theory somehow means to MAGAs that Trump did nothing wrong with his COVID response that resulted in a much higher death toll than comparable countries. And that COVID was a hoax, and vaccines cause autism.
insert rant here - If you can't tell when someones full or shit intentionally, or accidentally, it does not matter. Fearless leader either never opened a history book or ignored anything it contained. The quality of his advisors is also a circus act, they should be looking at each other trying to figure out who the real idiot is, yes its all of them.
There are large numbers of knuckle draggers walking the earth and now they elected a leader. Yes, I blame the democrats for being weak enough to let it happen. Bravo republicans, you made stupid our national symbol, I hope your proud.
Yes, I'm sick of winning, at least they got that right.
We're the best player in the market and we had two very large clients. One was a cable company and the other was a mobile phone company.
The lowest tier of tech support that serves the two industries noted for the worst customer service. I'm not sure what point your trying to make, that the scum of the earth seek the best scum provider? I worked in a cal center just once, your working for Satan. Get out while you can still tell good from evil. If Dante had known back then I'm sure a call center would have been a circle of hell. The training to keep users happy on the phone involves carefully worded deceptions to make it appear your helping. When I found myself using these phrases in everyday life I realized the evil being poured into me.
I'll see what I can do. MEANS, Nothing can or will be done.
Yes, even your "good customers" will turn evil when the next quarters share holder report comes out. Call centers just allow for quicker transitions to lower levels of hell. Your run the taps that dispense the hell, save your self while you still can. (mostly)
Then started ranting about queers, transvestites and such and how they've infiltrated the schools, women sports, passed laws about what you can say when it comes to pronons and such and for the first time in his life would vote Conservative. Didn't care about any other issues really, just attacking the "woke" Then he mentioned that now that he's retired and disabled, all he does is watch TV where he has become informed.
Ah, the two minute hate, the backbone of the republican party. How many times I've read about roving gangs of trannys wandering the streets putting their dicks in straight guys, and poof now their gay. Its sad really, conservatives should know just how gullible they really are.
I am retired, but I quit watching TV about 20 years ago.
...statements made by Trump and those under his employ...
"They" are just a marketing term now, politics is marketing sadly. The "2025 papers" are just a stupid rallying cry like confederate flag supporters. Trump has no plan other than making himself look good, and maybe cheating a few rubes who deserved it. How can you tell when Trump is lying, hell, how can Trump tell when he's lying. I've known BS artists they just wing it, going for the most popular idea in the room. His party of fools may have a plan, but I suspect most of them are too much like Trump. Trump is a Trojan horse full of stupid, his party got him in the White House now they have to control him, if they can. There is too much money. and power. in the Federal government, and the country, to go back to the good old days of small government. Republicans need to grow the fuck up. Right now Trump is just the brat child in the room, and like Raygun, the party will play him like a harp from Hell.
It seems like my phone loses functionality every year.
My android loads more games every month, that I don't play and I keep deleting. But now it's harder to delete them, so I guess that's progress?
