Does that attitude work for you? In general, I mean. Doesn't seem very effective.

It's the maximum amount of respect you can't expect for posting nonsense.

Why on earth do you think something keeps working just because it survived the warranty period? That doesn't make any sense.

Read that statement again and ask yourself, if it really makes sense .

It's still there, though.

And since it's usually one integrated board, a failure in the "bullshit" will likely affect the not-shit.

But it's also not that complicated to see through his lies. Or any demagogues for that matter.

That's what I mean by "against better knowledge". They have to willfully ignore the warning signs and contradictions. And that I don't understand.

That's the thing, it's not tied to a specific nation.

Here in Germany, poor people are voting for a party that wants to abolish minimum wage, unemployment benefits and healthcare. Farmers were protesting last year against a reduction of subsidies - and they supported a party that wants to abolish all of their subsidies.

Look at brexit, Meloni, Geert Wilders, Milei. It's the same everywhere.

Even then you still have a bunch of cheap hardware crammed into an insufficiently ventilated box that will lead to problems down the line.

My TV is 15 years old, not very smart, thick as oatmeal, but works like a charm.

And even more basic: renewables are consistently cheaper.

It's not really rocket science that adding a costly postprocessing to an already more expensive solution makes that solution even morer expensiver.

I would really like to have a real psychological analysis of this behavior.

It's not like this is the first time, people vote against their interests and against their better knowledge everywhere and all the time. Are they really just that stupid?

Ich frag mich wirklich, wer sich sowas kauft.

Die einzige Zielgruppe die ich mir vorstellen kann, sind Männer Anfang 20 mit wenig Geld aber mehr Geld als Verstand. Vor 30 Jahren hätten einen Manta gehabt.

Aber ist dieser Gruppe wirklich so groß?

That'll show him!

Did you watch too many NCIS episodes?

Hätten sie mal einen Traktor genommen.

They don't care.

This entire debate relies on the assumption that they have any respect for the law. Nobody, literally not a single person in that administration will be held accountable for breaking the law.

They'll try 200 different laws, orders, whatever. 180 of them will be declared illegal. And then what? Nothing. No punishment at all.

And they'll try again and again and again. Slowly eroding the entire government.

So in that thinking, Wikipedia is not open source, if the editor used a proprietary browser?

Maybe you should try not to act like a complete asshole. You're pedantic in all the wrong places and extremely arrogant. I know, living in your lonely world makes a bitter person, but you're still wrong and you're still an asshole.

The model is MIT licensed.

Of course you're free to go full Stallman, but that's an open source license.

Asking obviously doesn't hurt, but usually the laptops aren't even technically property of the company but leased and given back after some years.

And even if your company actually owns the laptops, there's likely a bureaucratic nightmare lurking because a laptop with potentially critical information on it is missing.

I know of a company where the IT guy "accidentally" sent a mail to everyone that the old hardware is sitting in a hallway waiting for the recycler.

Nobody has the intention to build a wall eat the rich.

You know what it's called if you get a disease?

TRANSMISSION!!

Think about it.

Even if they greatly underreported costs and their services are banned: the models are out there, open source and way more efficient than anything Meta and OpenAI could produce.

So it's pretty obvious that the tech giants are burning money for mediocre output.
