Yeah, I have never once been force updated by windows despite using it for many years. Why? Because I update my fucking computer like you should.

Doesn’t Linux require Kernel updates quite often though? Pretty sure those require a reboot.
Sure rebooting is annoying but you only have to do it 12 times a year so it really doesn’t matter that much unless you computer runs on tape or something.
Updating servers can by experience be more annoying though due to shitty applications that need manual intervention.
But clients are no problem.P.S While not relevant to home users, windows nowadays be fully patched without rebooting for 2 out of 3 updates. You do have to pay for it with extra licenses though. I assume Linux also can be hot patched in a similar way (but maybe for free?) but normally it’s not.
Considering the fact that most home users would never ever update their PCs unless forced too and then complain about a virus they got. It kinda makes sense to force people to update.
The same applies in any professional environment. Not forcing updates to clients in a professional environment is very stupid and will land you in trouble sooner or later.
Not sure if it counts but chatbot support in the sidebar has existed for quite some time now.

2·6 months agoI mean it’s technically possible. But don’t really believe that to be the case. Either why, in my opinion we one shouldn’t spread information or theories without any concrete evidence at all. It’s not like I feel sorry for Google or whatever I’m just tired of the constant misinformation and conspiracy theories.
The Pixel might be subsidized to get Android some more market share from Apple, or earn more money Google Play Store sales or whatever. Subsidizing your phone business just to collect more data might make some sense unless you are Google which already knows everything about everyone.

If I remember correctly the company that gave him permission to use vantablack never gave him the ownership of it.
So presumably Amish couldn’t do anything personally about it.
Pretty sure vantablack was patented not copyrighted. It’s also possible that is wasn’t either and just was really hard to produce. Afaik vantablack isn’t really designed to be be painted and requires quite specialised equipment.

Doesn’t it make a lot of noise walking around with your keys constantly hanging on your belt? I would also be scared that someone stealing them while on the train or something.
