glad i didnt trust it in the end
🤦‍♂️ It keeps happening

Microsoft are redesigning the BSOD to show less information and removing oobe\bypassnro.cmd «to enhance security and user experience of Windows 11».

If you take your time to read the blog post, the gaslighting in it is so shameless.

i did the math and it costs like 12 dollars to come into the office. (~2 gallons gas @~3$, 6$ road tolls)

every single microsoft update introduces some new regression

durov put a banner ad in telegram encouraging people to read his latest post
im not sure that durov actually understands what a "free internet" is
telegram is a non-federated, not e2e encrypted, closed source platform.
there are arbitrary restrictions on the platform such as having a limit to the number of pinned chats (unless you subscribe), or being able to change chat colors outside of a limited palate (unless you subscribe) or having animated pfps (unless you subscribe)
its not federated. you cant run your own tg server
its not freely accessible. you cannot see posts if you do not have an account. you also cannot make an account without a phone number which is certainly tied to your identity in every developed nation.
The "open internet" was a collection of dudes who ran their own webpages, mail servers, and irc servers.
durov is being a total poser. he pretends to fight for an "open internet" while actively doing all of the things that are making the internet closed off.
very cringe in my professional opinion

the one positive thing i can say about microsoft is that their image of the day desktop background is often really pretty.

when i show up theyre all sitting at a table together.
the first guy to recognize me says "skipper you look like a pastor"
the vibe i was going for was "undercover fed"
