I would not count on them telling the truth.

I checked my Windows 11 work laptop a while ago, and that shit was enabled. Did not see that in any UI, but using command line. Said that shit was enabled and active, but apparently it was not yet doing anything. I will have to check again next time I am firing that machine up again, because I absolutely trust them to re-enable it without my consent, those bottom-feeding scum suckers.

Obligatory info on how to check and disable recall in Windows 11:

• Click on the Start button with the right mouse button and select “Terminal (Administrator)” or “Windows PowerShell (Administrator)”, or if necessary log in as administrator and confirm.
• In the Terminal or PowerShell, enter the command DISM /Online /Get-FeatureInfo /FeatureName:Recall and press the Enter key.
• If the entry “Enabled” appears next to “State”, the recall function is already activated. In this case, the function can be disabled using the command DISM /Online /Disable-Feature /FeatureName:Recall
• Close the window.

Nope, only Morrowind. Arena and Daggerfall had no mod support at all, nor was a construction set delivered with them.

Japan: What do you want?

America: Crash our own markets so our buddies can buy the remains of our economy for a few bucks. Nothing to do with you at all, but not gonna tell you that.

That’d be Seth McFarlane, this guy is a McFarland.

Dear US,

Fuck you.

Signed, Europe.

\n, because I ordered a newline, not a flush.

She claimed that in “85 percent” of police cases, law enforcement couldn’t access the data it needed. The proposal is to amend the existing Cybersecurity Act to allow these changes. You can watch the response below.

That is complete and utter bullshit. And everyone knows it.

France.

Was there on business, visiting a factory of a large vehicle manufacturer, down in the south east. My god these people were nice. There was a guy who made sure we had everything we needed to get our work done, who would literally jump and run if we needed anything. There were people bringing us mini choco croissants for meetings. They always invited us for lunch and paid for it. There was always coffee for us if we needed it. We had desks to work on, which is a rarity in a factory environment, but they made it possible.

The best part was when we were standing at the line with a special piece of equipment that we had brought, and a guy stopped and said “hey, that looks interesting, what’s it for?” - and then we chatted about that for five minutes, eventually realizing it was time for a meeting. For both of us. Five minutes later, it turns out the guy who casually talked to us tech people was actually the head of their corporate IT. You wouldn’t have been able to tell that he was some higher up because he was so down to earth and friendly and casual. They all were. It was a mighty pleasure working with them.

Personally, I think this picture of Steve Balmer is so much more iconic and should be used for every single article about Microsoft or Windows:

This is what they’re doing? Friggin’ idiots! Why don’t they tackle the real problems?!

It is still perfectly legal to be a werewolf!

FTFY.

Was it Luke Skyvvalker or Ham Solo?

Packaging said dishwasher safe.

Maybe they meant the packaging was dishwasher safe 🤔

Well… a turnip, obviously.

BEAT THAT PETAR MOLINEXU!

In Germany, they look like yours.

“Eierkuchen” (literal translation “egg cake”) is another word.

Where “Pfannkuchen” means something different, “Eierplins” is used (mostly in eastern Germany).

And then there is “Palatschinken” which is similar to the Czech word “Palačinke”.

Buy a Fairphone instead.

Oh my. If Canada were to join the European Union, as well, we would have to rename the currency to “Euro Dollars”, or “Eddies” for short.
