In the case of Pearson, malice is a safe assumption.

Windows also has to worry about getting sued by another multinational conglomerate when some idiot loses the only copy if a super critical file because they were too lazy to save and forced their laptop to shutdown so they could pickup lunch.

I kind of miss having a three handed controller. I never know what to do with the extra now.

That’s because the shutdown hardly exists anymore. When you choose shutdown now it just hibernates. Reboot is the only way to get the full refresh of a shutdown unless you’re using CMD.

It wouldn’t be hard to do simultaneous posting. People figured that out ages ago.

Information not being private isn’t the same thing as information being public.

I’m not sure that is a realistic expectation these days.

Probably don’t do that second one. That is technically fraud. What you could do is, if you’re bank or CC company have the service, use a virtual card number to sign up for the service and delete it when you want to leave.

I too prefer that. However, I also know there is a large subset of computer users that just want their magic box to work and I don’t think it would be a bad thing if there was a Linux distro they could use.

There’s a reason windows flatly refuses to do some things no matter how much you may want to. It’s people that would do exactly that without any thought or hesitation.

That was the purpose before the invention of pocket computers pretending to be phones. Now they’re just jewelry. They don’t even need to function anymore.

There’s no such thing as a joke that doesn’t offend anybody. If you want to tell a joke, tell the joke. If you want to be universally inoffensive you would probably need to become a lurker.

Headed? Were already there.

That baggage still exists even if you leave out one of the letters.

You can always just transfer it yourself. Withdraw it from a physical location (assuming there is one) for that bank and deposit it in your own hsa account.

Okay, you’re not required to snarkily broadcast that in the conversation, though. You could just ignore it.
