Probably coincidence? It sounds (???) like this is a pretty simple fix on Windows.
The number of times I have borked my Linux machines so they wouldn't boot is, well, greater than zero for sure. Any operating system can be bricked to the point of requiring manual intervention by software with elevated privileges.
*The data do not lie
(I know, it's acceptable to use it as is done in the title, but the cartoon dude seemed to me the sort of fellow who might have opinions about the Latin roots of words and whatnot.)
"Over the last 3–4 months, we have observed that CPUs initially working well deteriorate over time, eventually failing," he claims. "The failure rate we have observed from our own testing is nearly 100%, indicating it's only a matter of time before affected CPUs fail."
Not used to seeing significant age-related degradation in silicon used under normal conditions. Sounds like Intel dun goofed...
Also X often supported a different size viewport and desktop so the view would scroll.
I remember encountering that the first time I used Linux! Can't recall personally finding a good use for it but...neat I guess?
Multiple desktops, 1999. What an amazing feature.
A quick web search suggests that macOS (then OS X) got this in 2007 ("Spaces"), and Windows not until 2015.
This alone makes this GUI more functional IMHO.
I rode in a 3 a while back, and to me it felt like a futuristic econobox.
If it's a case of needing ad-hoc WiFi from Windows, an Android phone tethered over USB will act as a WiFi adapter of sorts.
Maybe a dumb take, but I think milking customers for all they're worth is much better option than what HP is seemingly doing
which is milking them for all they're worth this quarter.
Like, there are companies with a cult like following (Valve comes to mind) and while they could probably increase profit for a quarter or two, they seem to be playing the long game fairly well. Which is ultimately better for everyone
they get more money over your lifetime, and you get a product that you're happy with.
It's also somewhat unique as a state (maybe?) in that it has a ton of corporate exports (namely, tech), as well as gigantic agricultural output. Illinois comes to mind as a similar situation. Contrast to Alaska (oil) or NY (NYC finance/corporate).
My carrier is Google Fi
one perk is that they will give you free data-only sims (up to 10 I think?) and you just pay for the data you use like any other data. I have used old Android phones in USB tether mode this way, and it works just fine. So, rpi+old/cheap phone should do the trick.
One fun bonus is that if you tether over USB it will work as a WiFi dongle, too
the failover from WiFi to cell should happen on the phone, transparently iirc. Not sure if that affects you.
Caveat is that I did this a while ago, and their pricing structure may have changed. Finished to be a great deal but has slowly become another carrier with not much to differentiate it...
As much as it pains me to say it, it's not really Microsoft at fault here, it's CrowdStrike.
