not yet, they haven’t.
not yet, they haven’t.
without search and their abuse of that monopoly, google wouldn’t have dominant positions or massive market shares that many of their other properties (products, services, software, etc) have.
probably not very many because it only took a single psychotic new owner to do that when he started pulling servers out of a sacramento data center a couple years back, with no engineering and no planning.
so, basically, the os isn’t tuned for the new chips yet.
the 2nd threads on smt-enabled cores are supposed to get hit last.
depends on when it hits the supreme court, for sure.
didn’t someone just say google was ‘very bad’ and should be ‘shut down’? …someone that helped stack the court to its current composition?
i’ve got a few using the mv3 ‘lite’ version of ubo here. seems to be sufficient–for now.
i like how the manufacturers who responded to the author’s queries basically said ‘tough shit, that product is out of support’
they’re trying, with that ‘privacy’ sandbox crap.
don’t forget about the ‘bundles’. lock you in to paying for six to keep you from service hopping.
i read that as more like “nobody would opt in if it was opt-in”.
it’ll happen. had to give up a 4L because the toner got scarce–and rather expensive. pretty much nonexistent now.
and now we’re on our seventh printer since.
ublock origin and adblock plus do the same thing and can be configured to use the same filter lists.
pick one or the other (tip: choose ubo) for in the browser.
all the more reason to use an adblocker… and a script blocker if you don’t mind the extra clicks to get a whitelist going or to temporarily allow them somewhere.
no. no. no. a thousand million times, NO!!
you’re actually helping by lowering the amount of revenue they have to shuffle offshore and hide from the feds.
do they even use ‘dualbios’ anymore? all i’ve seen lately is ‘q flash’ (for updating bios without a cpu or video present) on their boards.
we’ve had clients have their dell systems bricked from bios updates. it’s not just hp.
at least dell (reluctantly) offered free repairs, even out of warranty, on those models at the time. ‘repair’ being motherboard swap plus shipping both ways if not covered by an onsite warranty plan.
i still have one of those ‘repaired’ systems here. user gave it to us years after it got fixed. it just sat, unused, once they got it back as they bought a new one due to the lengthy turnaround they were quoted.
win 11 adoption must be pretty bad if they have to do their new features beta testing on win 10 (which should be on a security updates/show-stopper bugfix only policy by now) instead.
i worked on a pc used by an older, very “conservative” woman awhile back. needed help with her facebook accounts (plural), among other things. she had vpn clients, multiple browsers. tor, the whole bit on there.
it would be one thing if she was just passing tracts, but she was all-in on the fake news, trump, anti-vax, the border, jan 6 and ‘the steal’… basically the whole far-right agenda. and she was spreading that manure far and wide.
the kicker: she’s an employee of a local catholic parish.
when it automatically enables on win11 home, it doesn’t actually “enable” until you do sign-in to windows with a microsoft account so it has a place to stash the recovery key.
and, i have not had any difficulty turning the encryption off on win11 home systems.
