I get your point, but reading about someone screaming and cursing at a techbro dickhead directly to their face is something I would not mind being posted as much as possible.

I am no longer sure that is where it hurts the most, for these mega rich dickheads you gotta go after their ego.
I don’t mind having some wealthy people in the world, what I do mind is them ruining shit for others.
If Elon decided to just buy an island and retreat from the world at large (which will never happen), I wouldn’t give a shit if he kept all the money he made, he would at least stop making the world a worse place for as many people.
Same goes for Trump, Bezos, Zuckerberg or any other person with insane levels of wealth.
They can keep all of it, just go away and stop making other people miserable.
At this point, that would be enough.
If they absolutely could not stop working, then they should only be allowed to work on how to actually get rid of the great garbage patch and micro plastics in the sea in general.
They have the resources and contacts to make shit happen.
Absolutely, they definitely contributes to the culture and morale at a place of work, but they can only do so much.
The leadership are responsible for the culture of a company, this includes the morale, any change can only, and must come from the top.
I wonder if they produced better results than an AI would
I am a fat, balding, overweight IT guy, I enjoy photography, driving to find new places, the occasional cooking and learning about modern history.
I live alone, I deal with cleaning, washing, cooking and paying the bills, I have my debt in check and can save money every month.
I am far more manly than any “alpha” male influencer.
I need to get another bottle of cheap champagne, I have four already, they are marked Trump, Putin, Musk and Orban, looks like I need to add a Zuckerberg bottle as well.
Then you have a VPN service exposed on the internet that you need to keep patched.
The issue I have with this is that you need to forward a port on the NAS, exposing it directly to the internet, not only in your own network, but at your friend’s or parent’s network, and unless they are interested enough in keeping the NAS patched and secure, you are not only responsible for the security of your own network, but of your friend’s or parent’s network as well.
I am an IT guy at work, I don’t want to be one at home also.
There probably are plenty of safeguards against it, but the features are there.
Very fair points, I just dislike the cloud so a local solution came to mind first
I suggest setting up a small NAS on the way to the garage and backing stuff up on it regularly, that way when you need to go, just unplug it and put it in your car, and you have a backup of your data should the shit hit the fan.
IT guy here, Microsoft has extensive remote management tools.
Lets look at Microsoft Intune
Intune/Autopilot - This is Microsoft’s device management portal, this allows IT admins to remotely manage Windows 10/11 computers, and includes the ability to remotely erase a computer. Autopilot is a way to assign computers to a company so that when you you boot the computer it will only allow the Windows installer to be logged on to using an account from the company that registered it.
It is even possible to set a bios password through Intune remotely.
Microsoft could easily trigger a wipe of any computer that is connected to their cloud, and then make sure it could only be logged on to by the person it is registered to.
They could also change the password/mfa settings, and lock the UEFI
Effectively locking you out of your computer.
This can all be done through existing Microsoft systems, and I expect that Microsoft either manage all private Windows 11 computers logged in with a Microsoft account in a special instance of Intune or a separate but similar system with similar capabillities.
Now, this means that Microsoft does have the tools to brick your computer for Windows use.
This is an utterly idiotic comment, I’ll break it down into bulletpoints to make it earier to understand.
With these point in mind I believe you can make an effort to make a better comment next time.
Macrografx Designer 3.1:
If that is enough power, and you can run it without any internet access, then yes, it would probably adress point 1.
Yeah, I suspect you gotta do something similar to what McLaren did when the special mid 90s computer they used for the F1 got too hard to replace as they broke, they built a new computer interface that was compatible with modern computers and allowed them to interface with the car
Ok, so this concept is cool, but has a few problems…
This is scary…
I set up a 32 bit Windows 7 VM so my dad could keep using his old drawing program that was built for Windows 3.11.
It was the last version of Windows to support 3.11 compabillity.
Works well.
At this rate that is just the start.
