“Imagine people paying for Windows.” You had me up to the point that you explained why Microsoft might want to get rid of local accounts. You’re doing the thing that gives executives the idea of forcing online connectivity.

So this is the Warning from Mexico I’ve been hearing about.

Boiglenoight ,

I think this person means non partisan, because Metal Gear Solid is filled with political intrigue.

Boiglenoight ,

I saw one as well. It looks like the Matrix stopped loading polygons or shaders on that object.

Boiglenoight ,

I can’t think of two people I’d rather hear from more than these two gentlemen. /s

Back then I felt like I’d played everything. Fun to learn about games that passed me by.

Mexico is heading towards its most violent election ever, with 30 candidates murdered, 77 threatened and 11 kidnapped (english.elpais.com)

More than 170 attacks have been committed against politicians in the lead-up to the June elections. This violence has put campaigns under tension and is sowing doubts about governability in several regions. Specialists warn that the line between the Mexican state and organized crime is increasingly blurred...

True story: Rambo was pivotal in helping the Mujahideen repel the Soviet Union from Afghanistan. They would later become Al Qaeda.

[UNRWA Defunding vs Genocide] Worse Than You Can Imagine - Craig Murray (www.craigmurray.org.uk)

The coordinated decision of the Western nations to fast track famine by stopping UNRWA funding was announced within an hour, following the ICJ ruling that Gazans were at immediate risk of genocide, and drove from the media headlines the adverse ruling against Israel.

“Biden fully supports the genocide.”

This disqualified anything this person had to say. If you believe this, you’re either a confused person or seeking to sow discord.

Boiglenoight ,

It’s an absurd thing to say. I understand (and agree) that the U.S. should do more to stop Israel. In fact, I am personally for ceasing all aid to them until they get their country under control. However, I’m not a politician and can make such statements from the convenience of my own home without consequence. I’m not a leader of a democratic nation that itself sits on a knife’s edge between gridlocked governance and full on autocracy. Biden no doubt is weighing the next election in his decision making because he has to. The wrong choice will land a maniac back in the White House. To say he supports genocide is just provocateur nonsense.

Boiglenoight ,

Crazy people do this. It’s a gender neutral issue. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that. Best you can do is not respond anymore than necessary with hope they’ll move on to the next person.

Boiglenoight ,

It’s also a way to pay for providing a service. We hate it, but short of everyone paying for YouTube, it’s how they make their money.

Now double dipping is where things get questionable. If you pay for a video service AND they run ads. /Ripley flaming eggsacs

Boiglenoight ,

I can skip through podcast ads with ease.

Boiglenoight ,

I feel like that’s where it’s headed. Doesn’t matter what we’re talking about. A shining exception is private company Valve, which has proven time and again that it’s a model for how to treat customers.

Boiglenoight ,

Just saying people don’t complain about ads in podcasts because they’re skippable.

Boiglenoight ,

I like Gemini. It’s easily the best AI for rewriting things for social media that reflects my intent while sounding somewhat like me.

Boiglenoight ,

Ok…just saying, they may be fretting about competition, particularly in the AI business, and I’m just sharing 2 cents about what they’re doing. It really is better than ChatGPT/Co-pilot for this kind of thing imo.

But people can’t have opinions without others getting rude or butthurt about something. 🤣

Boiglenoight ,

How dare you call me a child—

Boiglenoight ,

Agreed. Please Don’t Destroy is pretty good though.

Boiglenoight ,

I played a lot of Guardian Heroes, Sega Rally, and X-Men: Children of the Atom.

Boiglenoight ,

Your kids? 😅

Boiglenoight , (edited )

That’s true too. Thinking about kids less than say, 15, watching this show is what makes me wonder. The level of violence is shocking to me and I’m over the hill. Can’t imagine how it might hit to someone in their formative years.

Boiglenoight ,

Israel is killing an entire group of people for the actions of a few. In the short term they will be demonized, over generations people may say what choice did they have if not forget what happened altogether.

Boiglenoight ,

Just say they. Not he/she. They. End of argument.

Boiglenoight ,

Everybody knows movie pirates eat babies—

Boiglenoight ,

We can expect this with any system that grows in size, becomes popular right? I don’t know the science behind it, but communities over a certain size naturally create subcommunities or attract partisans, antagonists, anarchists with a tendency to troll for fun. It’s the way of things.

Boiglenoight ,

The Big Lebowski. You pick up on stuff with each watch, and it just gets funnier when you do.

Boiglenoight ,

I disagree. My parents, big Roku users, wondering why Roku was becoming hostile to its customers with policy updates that require a remote to agree to, ads coming through cables (HDMI patent), were able to understand the nature of the company at the moment through the explanation of enshittification.

Boiglenoight ,

I’ve lost a lot of sympathy and just regard for Israel’s right to exist. I don’t want anyone to suffer, but I could care less if Israel as a political power were to disappear tomorrow if it meant a halt to the indiscriminate killing of people having nothing to do with attacks on Israeli people/territory.

It’s nuts because me 10 years ago would smack current me across the mouth for even thinking such a thing. As things are, Israel is acting like a bunch of nazis. Just crazy.

Boiglenoight ,

Ukraine being clearly having the moral high ground as a sovereign state defending itself, yes, expect to be downvoted for trying to contract what we all see with our own eyes.

Boiglenoight ,

I was in a gas station around UNC Chapel Hill of all places standing in line behind a couple younger guys who were saying insane things about how Palestine’s not a real state, they’re just migrant squatters and seemed to mock anyone hurt or killed that opposed Israel. They reminded me of ‘Murican’s talking about how strong and right America is, but from the Jewish perspective with Israel in its stead.

It’s hard to describe how sickening it was to hear. And they’re like, 20.

Boiglenoight ,

How would it be far worse? And for whom?

Boiglenoight ,

Please don’t take it as all Jews just as American morons don’t represent all Americans. My apology, I thought that was obvious.

US says Israel has not violated international law during Gaza war (www.aljazeera.com)

After Israel killed seven aid workers in Gaza, the US says it has not found any incidents of Israel violating international humanitarian law in the past six months. An Al Jazeera probe concluded the World Central Kitchen vehicles were deliberately hit.

Boiglenoight ,

That spokesperson doesn’t reflect well on his agency, our government or our people.

Boiglenoight ,

Russia is just helping those who want to leave leave yes that’s the ticket. The best way to do this is to try to decapitate the country’s leadership with a full scale invasion that includes devastating its infrastructure affecting millions of civilian lives.

Yes

Boiglenoight ,

War, with its life and death seriousness, doesn’t leave a lot of room for nuanced arguments. Those are for peacetime. For now it’s simply Russia is the aggressor, Ukraine the defender, and Ukraine represents western democracy in a part of the world that is known for corrupt oligarchs. We back Ukraine not just because it’s right, but sensible. it’s that simple imo.

Boiglenoight ,

The company says Office 365 suites with Teams will no longer be sold to new business subscribers, but will continue to be available for existing customers that opt to continue using the bundled products, even upon renewal.

So if your company already has 365 that includes teams, as long as it renews 365 there’s no additional/separate cost for Teams?

Boiglenoight ,

Perhaps, but my concern is investing time and energy helping customers learn a system and that system becoming financially unsustainable. I welcome change, but my customers don’t. Hearing that it’s only for new customers is a relief.

Boiglenoight ,

Will this change help your situation?

Boiglenoight ,

I can understand that.

Boiglenoight ,

It integrates very well, and gets better over time. You don’t need Outlook Calendar anymore, the OneDrive portion makes more sense than the actual website it’s pulling from, and the new Planner app is actually decent compared to the old one that was buggy af inside of Teams.

Boiglenoight ,

The are progressive groups, but the best they get is a compromised Democratic Party beholden to corporations if they want to continue being elected. IMO.

Boiglenoight ,

Small town. Cities are high energy. I like visiting but get worn down by the hustle and bustle.

Boiglenoight ,

Yes. The argument that we need to grow is a capitalistic one imo. This isn’t a capitalistic platform afaik. Small communities are naturally better, I think.

How do you feel about financing a genocide?

I didn’t want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I’m right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did...

Boiglenoight ,

Which side is committing genocide? That’s the side to oppose in any fight.
