A radio show I listened to years ago did a competition each day to update each letter of the phonetic alphabet. I don't remember most of them, but they decided that T should be "Technotechnotechno" and that always amused me.

You've been making shit up since this whole debate started. You're the textbook definition of "perfection is the enemy of good enough" because 99% of people will find that a VPN is good enough but according to you they're worthless.

I always get a good price when I resell my gadgets because I keep the original boxes for them.

Please don't tell me what I am focusing on, when I haven't even said it

I literally quoted you, so don't try playing the "I never actually said that" card.

It's ironic that you're now complaining about context and strawmen when you yourself started it with the whole "anyone who wants to know who you are..." argument. This mysterious "anyone" is the ultimate strawman because they're anonymous and all encompassing. Meanwhile, you have zero idea what anyone wants from their VPN's so you're making the broad, sweeping statements while lacking any context yourself.

A dumb take is, to pay for something you might get nothing from

And which VPN provider is it you're getting "nothing" from? There seems to be a budding market for VPN's out there, lots of people are paying for them and continue to do so, why do you think that is? Because the whole world is stupid and it's a pointless waste of money? Or because they are actually in fact getting some kind of use from them?

VPN's have a myriad of uses, you're focusing on some ambiguous nation-state attacker tracking you down for whatever reason. Meanwhile, quite a lot of users would just like to watch porn without having to submit ID. I'd say they're getting plenty of use out of their VPN for that.

Mate, I've had outlook begging me to use copilot and the second I do it just tells me it can't read my inbox or my calendar. What is even the fucking point.

Yes locks on your door are pointless because if someone wants to break into your house they're going to do it once way or another, especially if you leave the window open

This is a dumb take.

That button isn't for m365 copilot, but windows copilot which is an entirely different thing and yes that confusion hasn't helped Microsoft here. Also see GitHub copilot.

It's all good mate, we've all got over excited at times.

I mean if we're being honest then pretty much all 90's trek fits the description I've given.

Don't get me wrong, in principle I completely agree that more episodes can mean more character development and that's a good thing, but it's not as simple as "more episodes = better", there has to be intent and desire there to make good things rather than a specific number of things.

If releasing the files wasn't likely to have an impact, they'd have been released by now.

For even some of the most diehard MAGA folks, diddling kids is a step too far.

Of course there's a likelihood that the sheer number of folks involved would mean a huge amount of current and prominent politicians would have to go and that would almost certainly amount to what could best be described as a "reset" of the current political system and, well, maybe that's the real reason they haven't been released because neither side wants that, even though it's painfully obvious that the system is broken and needs it.
