I mean south park has been going in hard on Trump jokes. They show his needle dick every episode lol.

Maybe for where you live but not for my neighborhood.

Why is that obvious?

1st search results is acronymfinder with 116 results for DL. Fuck off lol

Heres my 37 year old adhd fueled emoloyment experience with no higher education. Not sure what the fuck DL is but it gives insight to your intelligence for assuming anyone will know what the fuck DL is so the list is adjusted accordingly. Take tons of adderall so my work ethic is amphetamine driven and it usually took 3 to 5 years to go from zero experience to hitting a ceiling. Only career paths I didnt progress all the way thru is nursing but gave example of path every nurse I know took who made a career out of it amd advanced their education. Each degree level comes with massive pay increase opportunities. The highest ceilings are Nursing, Procurement and IT. The most secure single certification lifelong careers Linesmen and Machinist. Fastest career path to the grave or being/feeling like youre famous: chef.

Machinist: 3 month certification class. Employers often pay for the class if you agree to work for them on completion.

CNA: 3 month cert. Again, enployers often cover course costs. Good experience towards, which employers also usually offer tuition reimbursement, nursing degrees which have very high ceilings d3pending on type of nursing degree you have. Can go for 2 years, work, need more money, go for 2 more years, work for more money, need more money, go to school for 2 more years, work for more money… Basically all the way from LPN up to Nurse Practitioner who are basically doctors.

Linesman: 2 year degree. Union. Work for local electrical department with government pension/benefits.

IT certs from Cysco: cheap, free courses available, most places will accept in place of degree fields without paying outrageous tuition for degree.

Classically trained chef: apply to any metropolitan restaurant, work your way up from dishwasher to sous chef with no prior education or experience. Must be able to handle high stress high demand work environment. Must be extremely competitive and good at doing drugs and drinking.

Procurement: basic understanding of relevant software and commercial purchasing. Starting employment usually begins with incoming sales and processing orders.

You’re welcome to disagree with a bad law

You’re picking up what im putting down lol. Didn’t mean to say I was disagreeing with what youre saying just in this case especially:

It’s not your responsibility to close the doors, but it is your responsibility not to walk in an open door and take something that’s not yours

Where I’ve paid for each new pc build to just have a blank slate and not carry over my digital footprint for microsoft from one build to the next. Also, tho, im not taking what isnt already mine, im just using a work around for dealing with microsoft’s atrocious customer service.

Again, not saying this will hold up in a court of law, jist saying I dont lose any sleep over it.

Bonus rationalization: fuckin outlooks locked in and un-adjustable junk mail filters have auto filtered Microsoft own emails for upcoming annual Office invoices to my junk folder that I used to rarely check before getting slammed with over a $100 charge for Office eliminating my ability to use the email reminders as notification to cancel my subscription cuz even if you paid for a year of Office but wanna cancel a month into the year so you dont forget, microsoft says naaaaaaa you lose the remaining 11 months of paid software access.

Id disagree. Its not my responsibility to close all their doors that are accessible to the public. Microsoft provided all the tools to use their software without their involvement. As a US citizen, I’m liable for my own negligence and/or ignorance. Corporations are pegally protected under corporate personhood so the same liabilities affect them too.

Not disagreeing but this isnt a form of pirating. They didnt break shit, they didnt hack shit and they didnt exploit shit. Microsoft built their entire DRM software in a way that was able to be recerse engineered.

Again, not contradicting anything you recommended. I just wanted to point this out for any lurkers because I cant encourage this option enough for anyone forced into putting up with Windows. You are actually uaing the same activation codes that microsoft themselves generate and distribute to their customers.

I can confirm it works for Windows 10, 11, for any iteration of 23h or 24h, all Office applications, both individually and packaged, visual studio, and I wanna say Adobe but that one im not 100% on.

If your pirating which for end users is the only way to get LTSC, just run Windows Server.

Its been over a year and as I said above im going off memory but I think I went with IoT Enterprise because of how nominal the differences were from Windows Server but also wanted to check out the IoT Enterprise because my cousin was starting his own fabrication/manufacturing company at that time and it was a good opportunity to see what his options were for future scalability that came with IoT Enterprise.

I mean, not to be a dick but, if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and expires after the year like the trial activation method… it must be a free trial duck lol. /s

Aka im all out of ideas or recommendations.

Yeah but there were methods for activating it with a trial activation code that only lasted a year I think, a method for activating ut offline permanently, and also a method for activating it using an annual reactivating activation code that, again *******was set it and forget it for as long as windows 11 enterprise will be supported

Na there are a bunch of caveats and different types of Windows 10/11 Enterprise and specifically IoT Enterprise.

Go back to their wiki pages cuz you are guna have to re-do the activation process and should nake sure you are setting it up per the provided instructions. Ive had windows 11 Enterprise IoT running for over a year now and its the best exclusive to Windows/Microsoft decision I ever made.

Microsoft makes a relatively great product in its Enterprise line, stripping most of the spy/bloatware out and allowing simple user configuration settings changes to kill the rest, plus all the advertised tools/software that only comes with an Enterprise shit.

Then they strip all the useful tools out, facefuck as much bloatware as they can jizz into your PC while buttfucking even more spyware into your PC raw dog style with so much breaking of everything with every fuckin update they release and call that fucking bastard Windows 10/11 Home Edition.

Im sorry I forgot what this conversation was about buuuuutttt fuck Windows in their fucking fuckhole is the TLDR.

Edit: This is all going entirely off memory wirh a huge iirc asterisks on it. I definitely remember having to do the set up over and over again, tho, figuring out which version was the best option for my use. I got the bitch set up now with local account, zero microsoft account affiliation and dont update fuckall unless its severe severe severe security risk. Its the best and most consistent my PC has ever ran.

They’re just following the same market trend thats been happening since before the 90’. You cant buy the steel from a mill cheaper than you buy the finished product from China. American manufacturing has been dead for half a century. Itll prolly happen in Europe too. So here’s your get rich EU scheme: start fuckin fabricating. You buy the manufactured parts from China because the quality is really hard to fuck up when it comes to machined steel parts that ship with MTRs. You take those parts and weld them into your finished product that you sell for 100x’s the actual cost to make.

All the more reason slapping tariffs on imported goods was and will go down in history as one of the fuckin dumbest economic decisions every made by any controlling power.

I killed the js to remove the pop up blocking the article but Im not sure if this is the entire article:

The AI bubble is 17 times the size of the dot-com frenzy — and four times the subprime bubble, analyst says

Artificially low interest rates have stimulated investment into AI that has hit scaling limits, says research firm

It’s not just a bubble but an epically sized one, an analyst argues. Photo: Getty Images

For good reason, it feels that the only major discussion in markets is whether AI is in a bubble or whether it’s actually the early innings of a revolutionary phrase.

So here’s another one, decidedly from the pessimistic camp. It’s a take from independent research firm the MacroStrategy Partnership, which advises 220 institutional clients, in a note written by analysts including Julien Garran, who previously led UBS’s commodities strategy team.

Am I missing the real article or is this the entirety of it?

Jesus he literally looks like the Asian version of Wormtongue from lotr.

There are always things people want to tell to another person(s) that when spoken either thru inner dialog or outloud, will always feel like they’re so easy to say or hear. The title of this post is a perfect exa.ple of what im trying to write avout in this comment.

I stared at that title for waaaaay too long in both the front page feed interface as well in this open comment section interface before my brain stopped either having a stroke or stopped lagg g g ing so fucking hard before I under stood why it was saying. I didnt really have a noticeablr problem. Im being dramatic but it definitely a blink or two to get thru reading the words individually, then right away read back thru looking for common word groupings. Then pulled phone back looked at the sentence as a whole beforeitfinallyclickedand****i****Ifeltsoooooostupid

I admit I dont follow religion centric news articles so excuse me if im way off base and that im basing this comment on the assumption a mjority of priests have stopped fucking kids. With that being said, i wish most governments put in the same efforts the Vatican seems to show in actively making changes to become more tolerant, progressive and modern. In the 15 to 20 years since the last catholic school kicked me out, I feel like the church has gone from the poster child for hating gays, hating safe sex, actively covering up all the kid fuckers, ignoring climate change and avoiding geopolitical conflicts; and has grown into a go earning body that acknowledges its past fuck ups, grew to include gays, seemingly stopped fucking kids, actively supports changes for climate control, and even calling out leaders for allowing a genocide to happen.

Im definitely not saying the people who follow the church are the dumbest most closed minded hateful fuckin people in the world. Im just commenting on the governing body I see for headlines of articles I have no interest in reading lol

Woooooosh

Im pretty sure the op you replied to is hoping for the five-oh to start taking GPT’s advice to commit suicide… meaning they want dead cops not for cops to intervene. Not the classiest comment you replied to, which is why I think it woooooshed right over your head.

Hot damn that shit don’t come cheap either!

Got any examples of the videos you are referring too?
