Oh, god. You’re so boring!!

LIVE A LITTLE!

I’d say it won’t hurt, bit I lie. Don’t worry, though; it builds character. 😆

But seriously, go away now…

See, you can’t even get that right. They just sprayed my lawn!

Sheesh, dude. It’s like you’re not even trying! Oh, wait… ʕ ͡° ʖ̯ ͡°ʔ

Step one is to try and access the bios. If you can, you just need a USB stick with your installer for the OS of your choice (Windows? Eew!).

If not, you’ll need to search for information for your laptop model. You might be able to disassemble the case and remove the CMOS battery. Or, might be another trick?

If you can’t get into the BIOS, you might have a bit more difficult road ahead. Then again, I recall back in the day there was a Linux distro that could launch from an .exe inside of Windows; is that still possible, though? I have no idea.

Good luck! And might not hurt to chat up the next autistic nerdy type you come across. 😂

It’d be worth saving, that’s for sure (the observatory).

But, not just anger; what is required is the righteous fury from the stories that inspired the christian bible. Not the faux outrage of modern day hypocrites, but true, overwhelming fury at these injustices.

Until then…more lives will be taken. 😔

Don’t forget the danger involved with such a choice. Unfortunately, we probably never hear about the majority of those who try to do right as a so called “peace” officer.

Cox, though? Motherfucker has got some brass balls, man, holy shit

How are we gonna successfully transfer ownership and control, though?

Holy hell, way to move the goal posts. 🤣

but if a nonprofit with funding from say a dozen different countries

That would not be a private entity…?

Unfortunately, you’re chasing a pipe dream. Sorry, but it’s true.

But I can’t fault you for trying to hold onto hope. What the fuck else do we have anymore?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Really? Because privatization does not lower costs. I mean, seriously think this through - in addition to the operational costs, you are adding a layer of parasitic “capitalists” who intend to personally profit from the situation. Please explain to me how in the hell x + y is supposed to give you a lower final total than x + nothing?!?

And when everything goes to hell because there are now parasitic sociopaths siphoning away the money, the final result is almost always to sell everything off to a “private equity” that will dismantle shit and sell it off to the highest bidder. Because that’s what private equity is - a way to transfer the value to an individual, thus depriving the public of whatever service or product involved.

How the hell would you know? Any fool who asserts that they know what’s best for a complete strange they know nothing about is not someone I would EVER trust.

Celebrating a descent into fascism? Oh, but of course, celebrating the complete breakdown of social support structures as they’re replaced with the populace getting terrorized by our own military is OBVIOUSLY such an unparalleled cause for celebration.

Wait, no, that’s fucking asinine. When did you last touch grass, buddy???

No

That sounds like an important distinction; I appreciate it.

I am kinda assuming the actual study has valid use; I think I probably just found the way it was described off-putting.

But yeah, expert opinion would definitely help here. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This “study” doesn’t seem to provide anything other than a correlation between WFD and cognitive decline. Sample size also seemed low? (125 adults)

Now, if somebody regularly struggles to recall the word they want to use, I don’t argue that “could” indicate cognitive decline. However, it seems far from being a “clear indication”.

Anybody with knowledge in related fields who wants to tackle reading the full published article, I’d be keen to hear your thoughts! But really seems like the linked article overplays the results for dramatic effect…

Ah, yes, because I don’t need money for rent and food, just healthcare.

What a moron.

AI assistant? Right where I lost interest…

So, once somebody figures out how to easily bypass this, that’ll work in my favor in the end I hope.

That would be far more intuitive, but it’s not that - it’s the painted logo on the outside.

No, I’m pretty that we’re not quite that far. So far, they can grow like a chicken nugget size chunk of muscle. But I would not be surprised to see it in my lifetime.

Still no justification for this money to be funneled to felon musk.

My wife

Do you have an Nvidia card? I found this post on Microsoft’s support forums. I am a Linux nerd myself, so I’m not sure how useful this will be. Definitely sounds like something to do with your driver settings, though.

Best of luck figuring it out!
