…because if I’m not interested in something, I might change my mind after I see it a bunch more times on the same fucking page - what a brilliant idea! Hell, put the ad in 50 different spots and make me click no less than 7 times to close each one - who knows, maybe that will encourage me to buy whatever shit you’re peddling!

Seems an alternative, easier method was found: https://www.windowscentral.com/software-apps/windows-11/an-even-better-microsoft-account-bypass-for-windows-11-has-already-been-discovered

Relevant part:

But fret not, as a new, perhaps better bypass has already been discovered that still uses the command prompt (which you can open with Shift + F10) and makes skipping the Microsoft Account sign-in step a total breeze.

Discovered by user @witherornot1337 on X, typing “start ms-cxh:localonly” into the command prompt during the Windows 11 setup experience will allow you to create a local account directly without needing to skip connecting to the internet first.

We’ll all have to make a conscious decision as to whether we will resist, collaborate, leave or just try to keep our heads down until it’s over.

I’m not particularly optimistic about which option most (or even just enough) Americans will choose…

True. At the same time, this magnitude of opsec fuckups can, and often does, result in people dying, which is fucking sad and infuriating…

It’s going to make it SO much easier to add correct people to secret group chats when their usernames and profiles are anonymized! Fucking morons as far as the eye can see, holy shit…

Same way they “solved” COVID before - the number of infections will not rise if we stop counting!

“Users who in the past would type ‘free online file converter’ into a search engine are vulnerable, as the algorithms used for results now often include paid results, which might be scams.”

Nooo, you mean turning search engines into monetization and ad delivery engines had downsides? Who would have thought!

Fucking greed at the root of another goddamned issue…

Was he a drag queen? No? Damn, those child molesting drag queens are super sneaky, aren’t they? How do they molest all them kids without ever getting caught? /s

Consequences? As in, sequences of cons? Because I’ve seen a lot of those already - Trump’s whole damn life is a con sequence…

Doesn’t even have to be an actual war - this government showed that they can redefine words to mean whatever they want (see them invoking a wartime law recently), so they might as well define drag queens as an invasive species, declare war on them and implement martial law/suspend elections because who’s gonna stop them?

Yup, exactly: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_abuse_of_psychiatry_in_the_Soviet_Union

You see, they don’t trust Big Pharma and multi-billion dollar corporations, that’s why they do their “research” using only small artisanal free range websites like Facebook, Twitter and TikTok…

So American voters get to not only eat shit, but now also drink it? How oddly appropriate…

That’s good and I’m genuinely glad they’re trying to clarify it, but it proves yet again that their top management is out of touch with reality and their users: somebody (most likely more than one person actually) had to sign off on these changes and the message they sent out - this whole thing could have been avoided if they understood their users better (and/or if they actually cared nore about what users think).

That’s the advanced cutting edge AI recommendation system for you. Oh, you just bought a fridge and a large TV? Here are fifty more fridges and large TVs that would be great for your fridge and large TV collection! And also a cheap Chinese knockoff impact drill, because they paid us to show it to people searching for fridges, TVs, jewelry, mineral water and potting soil!

Haha, it was a prank bro! A social experiment bro! Totally for real bro, I was just testing you bro! Bro!

Resembling? Yeah, sure. He also engaged in rhythmical chest expansions resembling breathing, and arrived at the podium by putting one foot in front of the other, in a manner that might be interpreted as walking in some circles…

For fuck’s sake, the word mincing is driving me fucking insane…

True, and you’re right of course. I just wish there were at least SOME consequences for at least some of this shit…

Because they’re lying. They proved time and again that blatantly and shamelessly lying is a viable and effective strategy with no negative consequences, so they’re doing it again.

This is exactly what “blinded by hate” refers to. He wasn’t attacked, he was not in any danger, he simply decided to attempt murdering people because they dared to exist in the same approximate space. This is how much he hates “those people” - that he felt justified in killing them on sight with zero provocation…
