I thought they were dropping the tpm requirement. I even have a W11 iso at work that doesn’t have it, provided by an official Microsoft partner.

You suckers! Everyday I travel through time. I have been keeping a steady pace of 24 hours per day for decades!

Sam Altman is full of shit? Nooooooooooo

It’s not immune to it. If you are looking for something highly specific you will get slob for sure. To give an actual example, a buddy of mine told me that the walls of your house act like a sponge when you have the outer walls insulated but not the basement walls on the outside, at least against water. So I went looking on kagi for stuff to back that up (not that I didn’t believe him, I just wanted to know more). A lot of the results were completely ai generated crap websites. There were good and somewhat relevant results, but in the end I gave up (also because we got confirmation that it’s done on our house, so it became irrelevant).

Almost none so not zero?

In other words: he was playing golf with some shipping magnate who complained about the high fees.

There are plenty of toll evaders, homeless, minorities, and otherwise lesser people whose lives you could have taken, and were that the case I would not feel so inclined to mete out such a harsh sentence but in this instance you leave me no choice but to impose the harshest ruling possible.

Never change, The Onion, never change!

Edit: alright, I assumed it was the Onion based on the community. But sure, it was some other site.

He technically didn’t brainwash them into setting him free. He convinced the pirates to double his ransom and to let him walk free around the camp, where he often and loudly told them that he would come back and have them all killed, once his ransom was paid and they let him go. Then he did exactly that.

I don’t really like Gnome as I like to tinker with everything, so I use KDE. I also have a laptop with Cinnamon, which is also pretty good.

Not with that attitude it doesn’t!

This reminds me of a book called “Boerenpsalm” (Farmers psalm) by the Belgian author Felix Timmermans. It’s about a farmer whose son dies and his daughter in law, of whom he never approved, still lives with him at the farm. They gradually grow closer and get romantically involved, but the farmer can’t believe he’s that lucky, which leads to some drama (it’s been a very long time since I read the book or watched the movie). Anyway, it’s frowned upon now as it was then (the book takes place at the end of the 19th century), but also a thing of all times.

Imo, when 2 people love each other, who are we to judge?

To answer your question though, yes, it would be awkward. I actually can’t imagine being in that situation, to be honest.

Based on all the replies this seems both are getting what they want out of it, so I don’t see an issue. Not every marriage needs to be a love match, but it does seem like there is some of that, so even better.

I do understand your moral reservations as it seems a bit cynical, but in the end it’s her life and she and any kids they might have are basically set for life.

At this point you might as well start a third party.

It’s a falcon head, not a policy change.

Your manager can go suck a dick. They are absolutely worth it and worth the out of pocket expense for the exam. The long term benefits (it looks very good on a cv) are absolutely beneficial to your career, not to mention you will learn relevant stuff in the process.

That last statement is absolutely true. My first 5-6 years in IT I kind of languished, because there were very few people around me that made an effort or pushed me to get better or just explained stuff to me. Then I got a call from a recruiter for a system engineer position. While I didn’t get that job, it did lead me to quit my job to go find something better. I then did find an IT system engineer job where I had a great mentor, support and incentives to get IT certificates. I wasn’t there for long due to personal circumstances, but that really launched my career and I’ve been getting better and higher paid jobs since.

I completely forgot I bought that once during a discount, but didn’t even have it installed. Started using it now, thanks.

For personal computing, sure. For enterprise environment, eh not really.

I didn’t know that actually. They can still deduce your actual email address from that, but for the identification of the culprit that would work as well.

That’s how I used it initially as well, but chose to get a subdomain to identify shops and services that had data breaches/leaks, pass on the email to other shops and services, etc.

And then I can just block that mask.
