The twist is that Edge ~is~ Chrome wearing a silly hat. =^-^=

He's like the spray-tan version of the Pope. His followers will endlessly throw money at him while believing his problems are everyone else's fault. My crazy conspiracy theory is that psycho fundie christians are depending on him for their bastardization of Revelation. Just like how they...

"There are no winners or losers." "Oh, there are losers!" =^-^=

I’m sure it’s been here before but I just heard it over the lunch room at work. Mind=blown.

I'm guessing I should feel a little called-out. But... that roar... that frigg'n roar. =^-^=

Barbecue sauce. =^-^=

Considering myself lucky that I've never seen it. Though, I'm using Win11Pro. Reading up a bit, it looks like Home Edition has it baked in pretty deep but can be disabled in registry.

I'm surprised the Apple cul... community lasted as long as it has since Jobs' charisma left the room.

To its credit, the English language has a pretty rotten signal:noise built in.

I've been using Visual Studio with intellicode enabled and it got really creepy really fast. I'd lay down a few lines of code and after a while I'd see it pre-writing nearly exactly what I would have followed up with. I'd often find myself laying down short blocks just by hitting...

The algorithm brought me here this morning. (O_O)

My fondest virus memory was when an Email went around my office with an attachment of [some famous actress]naked.jpg.exe. Practically took the company's IT infrastructure down for a couple days. I was on the short list of people who knew not to open unsolicited attachments. =^-^=

AV is a second line of defense. Think twice about relying on it to 'protect' your computer.

That could have been true 10 years ago. Pull a Dell motherboard and look into the sourcing on the majority of the components. They're skimping to near reject tier quality. They're relying on grey-market parts so often that they're beyond risk of running counterfeits. Pull a few capacitors...

Genuinely, take that path. I'll fix my wording a bit. Dell, HP, whatever: Prefab. PowerSpect, Nzxt, whoever: Prebuilt. Prefabs are disasters waiting to happen. Prebuilts are a reasonable compromise. For the heck of it, I just "built" a $415 computer on Newegg SKU, no used parts, and even...

Let's put it this way. Dell builds computers using $350 worth of hardware and sells it for $1000. And, that might be overestimating. I've looked at recent Dell motherboards and there's no way they're paying more than $100 per at volume.

The idea that Windows can update the bios in the first place is that prebuilt makers are providing the updates to MS updates. Windows remains a catalyst to perpetuate bad hardware under the thumb of prebuilders. And, no, building will never be more expensive than buying. Currently...

I'm not so ready to blame MS Windows. These all sound like pre-built computers and it's no secret that practically all PC manufacturers skimp on hardware quality every step of the way. Dell, HP, Lenovo, Toshiba... are they even still in business? ... Buying from these makers is paying for...
