Except that FileZilla does come with bundled adware from their sponsors and they do want you to pay for the pro version. It probably is the shittiest GPL-licensed piece of software I can think of.

It also says that they might have planned a second expansion featuring it. Doesn’t really say when the content was made, just that it would have been DLC.

I’ve played Phantom Liberty, going to the moon would fit that story. Maybe this is cut content from that expansion, not its own thing.

Void and Alpine are pretty great!

The sheer waste of energy and mass production of garbage clogging up search results alone is enough to make me hope the bubble will pop reeeeal soon. Sucks for research but honestly the bad far outweighs the good right now, it has to die.

OpenAI really captured the essence of “oh shit I didn’t study for this exam at all so I’ll just try and bullshit my way through it”

Such is the price of freeedom.

Time for an anti-dog moat, I’d say. Full of robot sharks.

Okay, but this can’t go through doors on its own either unless it brings an arm buddy.

I don’t find that scarier than the cheap suicide quad copters we’ve seen in Ukraine.

“What should we do to get more people working in the health sector?”

“Better pay and more manageable shifts!”

“Roll back privatization to shift the focus to sustainability over profits!”

“I’d just enslave the youth again.”

It isn’t always deliberate, I can guarantee you that.

@4am@lemm.ee already explained most of it, Bitlocker comes into play because the recovery environment can be booted without needing to provide the recovery key for Bitlocker, the vulnerability that is being patched additionally allows bypassing the need to log into it.

That said, Microsoft frequently disables Bitlocker anyway to do OS updates, it really only works if you enable the additional pin feature.

In a healthy marketplace, these would be fireable offenses. Regrettably, the marketplace is far from healthy — Microsoft has the government locked in as a customer, so the government’s options for forcing change at Microsoft are limited, at least in the short term.

And that’s why nothing will happen to MS, except maybe line go down a bit. But then line will go up again so it’s all good.

Kinda annoyed by articles like this making it sound like security wasn’t always an afterthought at MS though. It’s just that it’s even worse with everything being forced online to push SaaS revenue.

Them just quietly throwing the towel when it comes to Bitlocker getting circumvented on Windows 10 because the recovery partition is too small is only the tip of that shitberg.

As long as decision makers will flip their shit when they can’t have PowerPoint and Outlook the company will just keep on trucking’

You are making it sound like China and its large corporations weren’t also very interested in profits and market domination.

I haven’t watched the show (yet) but the OST rules!

I find the political discourse, at least on some topics, very juvenile on Lemmy. You know, screeching about how billionaires aren’t people but parasites and need to die, hundreds of upvotes. That’s some edgy, frustrated teenager bullshit. Or at least it should be, guess some people never got the memo about inalienable rights, equal treatment, vigilantism and how two wrongs don’t make a right.

Seriously, this thirst for blood is disturbing and if it isn’t just venting then, well, look how the French Revolution turned on people. That wasn’t very poggers.

There’s also this idea that everybody who isn’t 100% on board needs to be defooed and marked, preferably as a fascist. Which plays into the hands of the actual fascists because the non-fascists hate each other too much to collectively tell them to fuck off, despite their differences.

There, that’s my venting done for today.

I hear the voice of the machine spirit!

It’s almost like marketing makes it sound like it’s a fully-managed, worry-free service where users can just call up Bill Gates himself instead of hundreds of management portals someone has to babysit.
