@Beclfc note that windows 10 will be unsupported as of end of next year I think it is.
I have a windows 10 PC that can’t (officially) be upgraded to windows 11 but mine doesn’t try to. Will likely force the upgrade late next year and if it has problems just put Linux on it instead.

@philheppenstall Okay, thanks. I hate technology.

philheppenstall, 4 months ago

@Beclfc people say that but they really don’t, they just hate technology that doesn’t behave like it should!

Beclfc, 4 months ago

@philheppenstall I suppose but then technology doesn't mostly behave like it should.

@Beclfc I wouldn’t want to go back to not having Sat Nav. Or being able to emulate old arcade games. Or not being able to stream things. Or having a mobile phone and internet.
Not necessarily in that order!

@philheppenstall That's where we differ. I want to go back to the 70's when ignorance was bliss.

@philheppenstall @Beclfc I'd happily trade all that away to not be filmed every time I leave my house, every time I walk down the road, every time I walk around a shop.

@30yrdscreamer @Beclfc why, what have you got to hide?!

30yrdscreamer, 4 months ago

@philheppenstall that's not how it should work though is it? The default shouldn't be what have you got to hide. The default should be why should you need to be surveilled on the off chance you may be hiding something.

@30yrdscreamer doesn’t bother me at all. If anything I find it reassuring.
