@Blanks sounds like Google too tbh
I liked the only Windows phone I had. I think it was a Nokia from memory. Aside from them completely screwing up the Windows Desktop UI to try and match the phone UI, it wasn’t a bad product.

The biggest issue with Microsoft, from my perspective, is their consistent habit of abandoning their products. It’s only a matter of time before they stop releasing updates and bug fixes for my covidshot wifi.
Worse, buying good products that I enjoy, ruining them and then abandoning them.

I don’t know if I would trust it not to bsod when I am trying to make a 911 call.

Terrible. Use the correct thread!

This is disturbing. Apparently there is maths in our computers! How do we get it out?

This reminds me of something I saw earlier today. Apparently when the space shuttle was still flying NASA had a complete engineering model of its computers and wiring so they could test software and hardware changes without killing astronauts.
It has a mock flight deck, but it also has identical wiring…

When Pakoon was a cosmonaut, the Soviet Union had no need for such extravagances. If there were ever any issues in space they would just play Swan Lake on TV and the mission never happened.

@Gators1 As opposed to the capitalist pigs, who played the complete moon landings in a TV studio.

It’s a lot cheaper to make a movie than land on the moon and pocket the difference. The big corruption machine needs to be fed. Lern 2 capitalsim!

My understanding is the moon landings were faked and Stanley Kubrick was the director. And he, of course, insisted it to be filmed on the moon.

Americans go that extra mile to make great film entertainment.

I think this also explains why they had to go to the Moon so many times. You’d think once would be enough but when you imagine the lights and the generators and the oxygen for them and everything…

And retakes. Kubrick was a perfectionist.
