    Always amazed by the ability of MS Windows Server operating systems to fuck themselves up by just existing. Machines that only have Windows roles, no third party software, no user logins, they end completely borked beyond repair.

    What kind of &quot;McAfee messaging&quot;? Sounds somewhat familiar. From Lenovo Universal Device Client release notes https://download.lenovo.com/pccbbs/mobiles/udc26605wx64.html

    “organizations face increased compliance and licensing risk”, this is a problem invented by Microsoft, otherwise organisations couldn’t possibly care less about hardware based attestation of licensing servers. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-it-pro-blog/strengthening-key-management-service-kms-with-hardware-based/ba-p/4539465

    According to the tracking I received: for two consecutive days a delivery of a small package was attempted at 04:50 in the morning and returned to depot because nobody was at home. I wonder if they have any kind of QA safeguards to spot such absurd claims or they’re just standard practice working as intended.

    &amp;quot;I asked $LLMmodel&amp;quot; is becoming a literary genre in itself. Yesterday I had to listen to a long story about a *conversation* someone had with Copilot, oh the laughs they had together, such fun! Another phenomenon are blog posts from hobbyists written via LLMs, sometimes they even copypaste the prompt to the stochastic bot. Why? Shouldn&amp;#39;t your personal blog reflect your actual creative output? Is it for clout?

    How do I put it? Using troff as a teaching aid for sed is kinda insane. If you don’t know the syntax of the former you don’t have a clue what the desired output of those scripts is supposed to look like.
