Where I am, we have “Post Office approved” locks, cam locks for your post box that can be opened with your key plus a special key that the postie has, in case they have a parcel that won’t go in the slot.

Yes, you can get one of the special keys if you know where to look

No, it isn’t a problem because we’re not a bunch of fucking savages 😂

Well, 4% of the population, 90% of the stupidity so…

Globally it’s about 12% though

Just fyi, the vast majority of people don’t use Apple products

That’s nice dear

Sticks it on fridge door, tousles hair

I never thought I’d see the day

When someone writes a poem

The first thing that we say to them

Is “Did you use an LLM?” :(

If a poem neither rhymes nor scans,

Sorry for my spite

It’s no longer poetry

It’s someone talking shite

An entire country of fucking cowards 😂

I’ve noticed in recent times

Poetry doesn’t rhyme

And even when it can

It doesn’t scan

It’s shit, it’s true

I blame haiku

Definitely don’t Google “2K spray paint” because it’s impossible to remove and you can seriously damage surveillance devices with it, like cameras and stuff I dunno

Oui, il m’arrive d’inventer des choses pour le plaisir ;)

The cleaner used to be called Jif, it’s been called Cif since they started selling it in France, where “Jif” is slang for a condom lol

Your not wrong

Oh, the irony

Pffft they’re doing it because the EU is going to force this in a year or two, I bet

Exactly. You’d get your family “computer person” to do it.

If they care about the OS you want to use, they’ll upgrade to W11 this way.

If they’re obnoxious, self congratulatory Linux users, they’ll try to force you onto an OS you don’t understand

Which is better for the average person?

True, it’s as difficult as plugging in a flash drive and clicking three things

Your average yank can’t attempt to tie their shoes without accidentally committing genocide lol stay away from installing operating systems

Mine said I couldn’t upgrade because of the no TPM thing. Turns out it’s just off by default on a lot of mobos.

Secondly, there’s a program called Rufus that can create a bootable flash drive with Windows 11 but removes stuff like the TPM requirements, the need for Microsoft account sign in, all the bad stuff etc

I’d been avoiding it for a year until I learned about Rufus but now that I’ve installed it, you know what? Without all the bloat, it’s a fucking smooth OS. Really excellent multitasking windows and fast too

Lemmy shits on it because “muh Linux” but if you install it right, it’s fucking excellent for the vast, vast majority of people

Texas alone is almost as big as entire Europe.

There has been a fad recently for fake size comparison maps about this, presumably made by insecure Texans with giant trucks and tiny penises

Texas is slightly bigger than France, and about the same size as France and Switzerland combined
