The "Recall can't record DRMed video content" thing is because DRMed video content is entirely invisible to the OS. The OS passes the encrypted content to your GPU and tells it where to draw it, and the GPU decrypts it and displays it there. It's not a policy decision on the Recall side, it's just how computers work.

Some of y'all are still confused as to why it seems that Silicon Valley billionaires are "turning to Trump." That's because you don't listen to Black people, you disrespect poor white people, and you ignore obvious statistics that have been staring you in the face for decades.
Silicon. Valley. Billionaires. Have. Always. Supported. Trump.
Not because they like the tax breaks. Because they are more likely to be racist, and racism is the greatest predictor of Trump support.

So it's Godzilla Minus One "enjoyable" good or is it "accurately portrays the depth of human depravity and suffering" good? Because after 3 Body Problem and Furiosa, we're looking for something less grim.

@icecolbeveridge My work is close enough to bike, but part of the path has 40 MPH traffic and no shoulder, so I'm forced to become part of the problem.

#Violet got to see some deer on campus today. After initial curiosity, she decided they were abominations in the eyes of dog and had to be barked at until they bounded away.
Are Tolkien's rings a metaphor for enshittification?
@lucifargundam @LouisIngenthron Can you explain? Does it also apply to dividends?
I will admit to not having a lot of knowledge in this area.

We could rotate the grate so that its bars are perpendicular to a bicyclist's direction of travel, thus solving the problem, or--hear me out--we could post a sign illustrating the problem.
