HP bricks ProBook laptops with bad BIOS delivered via automatic updates — many users face black screen after Windows pushes new firmware (www.tomshardware.com)

On May 26, a user on HP’s support forums reported that a forced, automatic BIOS update had bricked their HP ProBook 455 G7 into an unusable state. Subsequently, other users have joined the thread to sound off about experiencing the same issue....

This happened to me on my daughters Lenovo. Got a windows update overnight. Updated while traveling in the car. Wouldn’t boot. Apparently the BIOS updated and there was no fix. Had to send gor a replacement under warranty. Sent it off, took 8 weeks to get it back. Wasn’t even the same serial number, just a replacement with no sdd.

I’ll take metric gladly, but I can’t go that direction sir.

Les see… there was music, tv, then DnD, then computers, then video games, and smartphones. Just in my lifetime. Remember how video games created a generation of psychopathic murderers? I have too many bodies to hide I tell ya…

Corporations are people. Thanks to Citizens United. Though I’d gladly give up TikTok for the court to reverse this decision.

You’re not kidding. 2nd paragraph in I stopped. 3rd graders can write better than this.

And now we’re in an age of nuclear fusion. My kid or grandkids may live in a world powered by even cleaner reactors. Which is great because they will probably have to live entirely indoors.

Just for my info… any moderate militias out there? Purely informative of course.

A feature, not a bug.

Are .22 rounds still hard to find? Been awhile since I’ve bought any. I don’t practice much and I think before my dad died he was falling down the prepper hole.

Maybe its due to my age, but I use YT for tutorials on diy or fixing shit. I get 20s in, then whammo, ad. Just as the guy is focusing in on the area I need to see. I am watching a 5min video and 2min of ads… it is ridiculous.

Ah my us robotics 28k modem… it sang a sweet song to prepare me for the bloodshed of TF and Painkeep.

All the ways streaming services are aggravating their subscribers this week (arstechnica.com)

Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....

I wish I hadn’t quit on acid lounge for so long… my account was closed due to inactivity (Netflix was a nice option way back then)

I have an older one… 411j I think. Amazon gifted it to me one day… so nice of them.

We’ll get it to you. Some day, your 40yr old cable or 70yr old copper line will be replaced and you’ll be connected to the 20 yr old fiber line 800 ft from your house. Then when that shit breaks we’ll repair it and double your rates to recoup the costs.

Originally it was just the poorer people. They lowered the discount and increased the qualifications for some reason.

Hope you enjoy combined tasks in your taskbar…

Wonder if it could build around laptop mobos… I threw together a design around my daughter’s broken laptop (screen) with Tinkercad and cut it using a laser engraver, but it bugs me it has an open gap around the ports (I am not that talented with a caliper, and I’m a little lazy)

GOP is constantly refusing legislation because he told them no. That fat fucking orangutan still has power because they give it to him.

I have seen many foreign representatives speak on the international stage. Netanyahu’s recent play at the racism card took me to a whole new level of outrage. Such bullshit and condemnation (he actually said it) on the level of Putin but at least with Putin you’re not also getting a “Give me more weapons pwease” tagged to it. We need to drop our dear allies like Israel and SA. I’m sure there’s more but those two are at the top.

I actually get pretty good info from TT. Lawyer insight on Trump trials, video quotes from politicians, summaries of new laws, science summaries for dummies that don’t have physics degrees, etc.

Then again, the algorithm knows I skip a lot of dumb shit… cept the funny cat videos.

I think to myself : “yeah but people will see the propaganda fr what it is immediately.” Then I realize people got mad at RT being removed from providers, Newsmax and FN, as legitimate news sources, etc… funny how they single TT which hasn’t done any of that yet but ignore the others. The fact they consider it’s sale to the US is the ultimate hypocrisy - free market my ass.

Honestly some algorithms aren’t bad. Like the Adobe motion deblur that clears up long exposed photos. AI is BS. Individual algorithms have their places as tools. Teaching a machine to place extra safeties if unaware workers or vehicles is another great example here.

Serious question to Europeans: “How the hell did you get a group of people to actually give two fucks about you?” Seriously, here in the US even my goddamn local BOE is doing shady greedy shit. It’s all fucking corrupting so fast and without even a semblance of shame or privacy.

Same prob here. I see it under cards but not displaying

I still have an “air mouse keyboard combo”. Used a dongle to transmit but worked great. One side had arrow buttons, 2 buttos for clicking, I wiggled my wrist to point the cursor, and a keyboard sat on the back. I think I paid like $10 for it. Went from stick pc to Amazon due to specs vs price. Considering migrating back though.

He believed in the teachings of a 20th century cultist who said you excreted mucus based on dietary choices, and therefore didn’t have to worry about health or bathing unless you ate poorly. (Stinky dude who also made an 8 yr old cry for eating a cheeseburger).

Wish everyone health but guy was as extreme as it gets in regards to being an asshole. Denied his daughter, settled child support days before taking Apple into the public market, etc.

Revealed: a California city is training AI to spot homeless encampments (www.theguardian.com)

Last July, San Jose issued an open invitation to technology companies to mount cameras on a municipal vehicle that began periodically driving through the city’s district 10 in December, collecting footage of the streets and public spaces. The images are fed into computer vision software and used to train the companies’...

Don’t use McDonalds or TB app anymore. Praying Dunkin don’t pull this bs. Every few times I go to McDs and they ask I wanna respond, “no cause forced arbitration is dumb for just a hamburger”

I’m a big fan of TT. I will part with it in order to not die due to lack of basic medical care.

I’m kinda hoping for a Cthulu Church myself. Can you imagine how cool the aesthetics of the building would be?

unphazed ,

I need to become an author, create a Cthulu religion, buy lots of boats, and an island with a giant Cthulu statue with no explanation to keep it a mystery. I’ll build a church and instruct everyone to stay away from the island. Inside the statue I’ll pay a person to sell merchandise…

Oh not implying that. Just making a stupid comment for the yuks. I seriously learned something. All bad Presidents do at least one thing good. Except Jackson.

Seven Mountain followers want this fight to end horribly. They’re actually attempting to hasten it.
