Laptops typically come with their own driver management software. Windows was probably trying its best to get something compatible installed, when your existing driver became outdated. There’s a decent chance that MSI supplies some specific driver for your laptop that Windows won’t touch or try to override through their own software.
Still, nice that Linux supplied better drivers by default!
Is that terrorism?
? I quite literally don’t have this. So either I disabled it or it wasn’t there. I don’t remember it anyway and I can’t see it now either.
Yeah there’s been loads of threads with surprised Europeans when it comes to Windows ads, because we just don’t get them.
My EU Win11 doesn’t show any ads either.
For those confused: it was the Dutch that placed the display panels about African American soldiers.
It was removed on orders of the Trump administration.
That’s not a Christmas celebration, and the Dutch authorities are actually pretty pissed about it, because the Americans had it removed.
Israel under Rabin seemed intent to stick to the accords, but a far-right ultrazionist terror attack in Hebron and the subsequent assassination of Rabin by a right-wing Israeli extremist undermined it significantly as well.
That’s fair, I don’t know what other things have come before. It just seems really odd that there was such a severe reaction to what happened here.
They’d already admitted they accidentally pushed to the wrong branch and cleaned it up.
Which by that point they’d already fixed. They mentioned they also accidentally pushed to the wrong branch.
I dunno, this just looks like someone accidentally made a bad commit and instead of being mature about it and letting them fix it we get statements like “all bridges have been burned” and a split in the community. That’s a bit overblown, and if at the first sign of disagreement the decision is to blow up a project you’re making it very hard to work with you.
As the article addresses, inflation is down because demand has cratered, as people are simply significantly poorer than they were before. Demand for food is down, as people don’t have the money for food anymore, so prices must come down. Instead, people have to stand in breadlines to be fed.
This isn’t a good thing. It’s the worst way of addressing inflation, as it leads to sharp increases in severe poverty without addressing any of the actual causes of inflation. The Argentinian economy is becoming less productive and the added imports means more money is flowing out of the country instead of towards it.
Before, inflation was making Argentinians poor. Now it’s Milei making them poor. In the end, poverty is just getting worse.
They were transporting the only remaining copies of the Epstein list.
It’s literally happened to every single version of Windows, 10 and below.
This has literally happened repeatedly in the past. Just last year an exploit came to light affecting Windows XP that was so bad Microsoft had to release another security patch for it. WannaCry and NotPetya malwares used similarly severe exploits in 2017.
No they spoke Venezuelan, clearly.
Well, unless some exploit is discovered that doesn’t require user interaction. Then merely being connected puts your device at risk.
And given historical precedent, it’s going to be a matter of time until one is discovered.
I think you may be underestimating how much pensions cost on a yearly basis. In the Netherlands it totals over 50 billion euros each year, half of which is paid through labor taxes. I’m not sure we could easily squeeze that amount out of the 1% every year 🤔
Well it’s also the pension system that will become hard to financially sustain. Generally you want the population to at least kind of replace itself to avoid economic upheaval.
But by this logic, China is already in control of Taiwan, no? So why is the CPC threatening an invasion?
Truth is that you can’t really consider nations going through a civil war to be truly the same entity. I mean, they were literally fighting each other over control and claimed lands, bit strange if it’s all the same China no?
China (led by the CPC) is claiming lands it never controlled that are currently in control of China (led by the KMT). They’re de facto separate nation states, and the communist one does not and has never controlled Taiwan. Its territorial claims come from it claiming to be the successor state (or continuation state) of the Republic of China (officially, Mao declared the foundation of a new People’s Republic of China).
This is a wildly different situation from e.g. Labour/Conservatives in the UK. Neither make competing territorial claims nor claim to both be in power at the same time. They also all serve the same government, which the CPC/KMT do not.
