I thought you were joking. Listening-only tickets are really a thing… I don’t get why people are so obsessed with Taylor Swift.

What the other person said. But I gotta say it’s a bit weird to reply to me that something doesn’t work when I’ve been doing it that way in present day on present OS.

I’m well aware of how LLMs work. I take every response with a grain of salt and don’t just run with it. However, I understand many people take everything LLMs regurgitate at face value and that’s definitely a massive problem. I’m not a fan of these tools, but they do come in handy.

Isn’t the second sentence incorrect? You can force local account creation by running oobe\bypassnro to bypass the internet connection requirement which lets you create a local account instead. And at least on the Pro(?) version it can be bypassed by choosing the Domain account option even if the PC won’t be joined to any domain. It just creates a local account. I have to deal with Win 11 installations as part of my job and this is the way I’ve been doing it.

All this is not to defend M$’ attempt to force this bullshit on the users. I’m a Linux user and steer clear of M$ products whenever and wherever I can. Just wanted to point out an M$ account isn’t necessary to setup Win 11. (Unless these workarounds are only possible in the Pro version?)

I sometimes use ChatGPT when I’m stuck troubleshooting an issue. I had to do exactly this because it became extremely annoying when I corrected it for giving me incorrect information and it would still be “sucking up” to me with “Nice catch!” and “You’re absolutely right!”. The fact that an average person doesn’t find that creepy, unflattering and/or annoying is the real scary part.

It’s called “social stomach”.

I can’t speak for low battery, but I can for different brands of calcs.

Back in high school majority of students had this specific model, and I had a different one. My entire answer to a question on an exam was correct, but my calculator somehow calculated different decimals to the ones from the popular model. And it was like 4th, 5th decimal or something. The asshole teacher took all of my points away on that. Meanwhile, one of her fave students forgot a very important part of the formula which made the calculation completely wrong and the teacher still gave them half the points for it. God, I hated school, lol.

Thanks for reminding me about this gem.

As is the tradition. I don’t live there anymore, but whenever I visit every problem is always the migrants’ fault. It’s totally not the government’s.

This is maybe pedantic, but you don’t really build tolerance. You just build a flora that handles the lactose for you, i.e. bacteria.

It’s a cult — plain and simple. As someone looking from the outside, it’s bizarre so many people make the political party they vote for their entire personality. With merch and everything. I can’t wrap my head around it.

Many people rent them out. I know because I’ve met several people who use the service for their vacations every year. It’s quite popular, and sometimes comes cheaper than to actually rent an airbnb or a hotel room when split between multiple people.

Replied to the comment under yours instead of to you, so check that out. But the person who replied to you pointed out a few of the problems.

I’m not sure if this is the exact study I read, but it’s at least very similar. I’ve also seen tourists disposing of their waste and garbage directly into the sea.

The reality is even the small ones aren’t good for sea life. They’re destroying the sea floor and it’s quite detrimental to the ecosystem.

Eh, really depends. Some immigrants keep supporting right-wing and authoritarian leaders in their home countries, regardless of where they’re from. There are many immigrant Russians who don’t support Putin, but there are some who do. Just like there are MAGA Latinos. Same as many Balkan people who move to Austria, Germany, etc. who still support right-wing leaders whose economy- and people-ruinning policies forced them to move for work in the first place.

People are dumb, tribalistic animals.

This is AI slop, btw. The original:

You don’t need to shower daily. You absolutely do need to wash yourself in some other way, like with a washcloth. Unless you have no BO at all, more likely than not that bacteria colony under the armpits will make you smell bad regardless of if you had a “sweaty day” or not. Plus, wearing clean clothes helps a lot.

Anecdotally, I went to a gaming convention once and that taught me to never do it again. The smell was so bad. Living the stereotype. And on a recent concert I had someone stink so bad in front of me, it ruined the experience.

Also, as a side note. The article giving an example about why someone doesn’t shower being not liking having wet hair. I’ve heard this once. Do people not know they can just… tie their hair in a bun if it’s longer or just avoid wetting it if it’s short?

This is why I avoid MMOs. Several years ago I picked up one again and ended up accumulating over 1000 hours over several months. And I didn’t even play the main story for the most part. I remember clan members’ reaction: “wtf, how have you not finished the story after so many hours played”. The only reason I stopped literally over night was because I had something traumatic happen to me the following morning that fucked my life up for good. It quite literally required a life-changing event to shake me out of it.

This goes well with “We’ve all got the same 24 hours”, as if someone who has to work two jobs to support themselves and their family is in the same situation as someone who lives off of inheritance or rich partner and doesn’t have to work.
