If VD Jance had a bad date and then told people about it, would that make him an armchair critic?
Did VD Jance get his junk caught in the laziboy recline mechanism?

Something to remember:
Don’t think for one minute that “not-Trump” means “not-Project 2025”.
This plan will be on the back burner quietly simmering away until all those who support it are evicted from the RNC.
Mate, ease up!
Add some lube and loosen your death grip and you’ll have a more pleasant experience
Typical racist BS theory as a method to delegitimise the Treaty.
Somehow these clowns seem to think if they can prove Maori weren’t the first here, thereforethe Treaty means nothing and can be scrapped.
Regardless of any prior inhabitants, Maori were already here when the Europeans arrived.
Bro, just add it to the pile of rubbish over there next to the 3D movies and curved TVs
At this point, what benefit is there of doing nothing and “following the rules”?
If Biden wins, then what? It doesn’t fix any of the BS the supreme Court has created it just buys a couple more years until Trump tries again or the next Rep maga agent comes along. Looking at the state of the Republican party, this would be almost any of them at this point then the US is in the exact same position.
They can’t hold off the Republicans forever.
Of course if he does reset the court, jails or executes Trump then that plays directly into the hands of the crazies too “SEE! We told you he’s trying to take over democracy!!”
Boy
Once we’re warriors
Excellent movies - but terrible reality of what is like living poor in New Zealand in the 1980’s and 1990’s
Phase one: force everyone’s data into their OneDrive account. OneDrive now at capacity, you must upgrade to ensure all your data is backed up and retained.
Phase two: MS secretly (or not so secretly) use all this data to train copilot.

In not familiar with exactly what happened that night but just an uneducated guess:
All of the threats that Kyle encountered was in response to the fact that he was playing Timmy Toughguy and actively strolling around with a gun…
If he was just wandering around being an unarmed cunt then the chance of being swung at is still not zero but pretty damn close to it.
If at any point he ran - and kept running, or dropped the gun and ran, fully retreating from the crowd I doubt he would have been chased too far and the need to shoot would have been eliminated
In the same way he (correctly) saw others as a threat, the primary reason he was being threatened was because everyone else saw a random civilian with an assault rifle that was a 50x larger threat well before they threatened him. Even if he intended to do nothing with it, he knew he was sending a threatening message just being there with it and he then seemed shocked when people started responding to that threat - of course they would try and disarm him at a bare minimum.
The threat to Kyle at this point was genuinely high because most adults in the US - or anywhere - instantly recognise what a random civilian in public with an assault rifle means - mass shooting. This is exactly the message Kyle intended to send in order to scare rioters off. If he wasn’t there just to scare people off then he was there to actively murder people. At this point I could put it down to a dumb kid making a really stupid mistake. Maybe worth a few years in jail for gun charges or inciting violence?
But he didn’t retreat as he was being threatened - a fraction of what he was threatening others. He chose to attack instead and it’s at this point he deserves to spend the rest of his days rotting in jail. He tried to send a message, that message wasn’t received so he murdered those who were fearing for, and attempting to protect their own lives.
Kyle choose to be the aggressor - and much greater threat to anyone there - from the start. He wasn’t protecting his own family, house or neighbourhood, he crossed state lines to be an aggressor. Kyle continued to act as the aggressor at every stage of the encounter.
Fuck Kyle.
Yes! There is a website somewhere that has a tonne of fake os screens - updating/upgrading windows, bsod loop etc.
Run a scary looking one of those, disconnect mouse/keyboard so it can’t be interrupted and let the boss discover it
Heat transfer kits - some have thermostats that can control the flow else flick them on manually:

Much more impactful than how it was used in Shrek 2.

“Oh no, see - this doesn’t work, the public sector can’t do anything right. Obviously the solution is to privatise everything”
Quite a few things - mostly used it for capturing images, loading drivers and updates into images but can also be used to pull apps out of the image too.
For a live windows install there are PowerShell commands to do this
I’m not sure about this one - it’s definately not my experience but yours could be very different.
The system definitely reports data back to MS but I’ve never seen a box have issues because we denied it the ability to dial home or update. Unless the PC is online and the user is actively trying to prevent the updates installing? I’ve seen users pull the plug on a PC that started/midway though updates hoping to stop them and it would often make a mess of things.
We had a small handful of XP then Win7 boxes that were completely off the grid/standalone as SCADA access points/controllers? for several years without issues.
Likewise, we had one box where the vendor did not allow any updates despite it being networked and online. They had disabled win updates completely without our input. It ran just fine for a few years until it was picked up in a security audit. We didn’t understand why updates were disabled at that time so we switched them back on and updated. The PC ran just fine until it’s eventual retirement.
That’s right! I remember those signed drivers where also why early XP (pre SP2) had a bad rep. Not as bad as ME but users were swearing on the graves of dead relatives they would never give up W98 or W2k. Without new or signed drivers, a lot of hardware struggled but by the time SP2 rolled out, hardware vendors had mostly caught up and the OS had matured.
Vista had similar issues (so, so many issues with Vista) with it’s security changes which made life difficult for badly written/insecure software (wanting admin rights to run or write access to system folders/reg keys). Those changes in Vista paved the way for Win7 to be so much better at launch since most software had caught up by then.
I think the issue with disabling components is 90% how users remove them. Pulling them out via “official” methods hasn’t ever caused me issues - DISM is really handy - particularly for permanently removing the default apps. Those deeply connected functions can be a pain!
He’s not been knighted - yet…
