Can I update every second or third year? Will the previous versions receive security updates?

whereisk , (edited )

No worries.

For those who were wondering:

On the security updates:

Yes they'll provide some security updates for some time even out of contract. No time frame given, only in relative release numbers:

Our naming convention for releases is: <major>.<minor>.<patch>.

Version -2 of currently released minor version goes EOL. The cadence is not explicitly provided

On not renewing or renewing later:

Yes, jump in any time.

That and the gender separation is exaggerated by smaller families. Often a lot of people will only interact extensively with their mother or father as a member of the opposite sex, rarely anyone around their own age.

You don't need to reverse to park between two vehicles, you simply go forward on the right angle, climb the curb and turn.

But you do need it to get out.

However, you also don't need it to get out as you just wait like an upstanding citizen for the person in front you to leave.

Of course you need to flip your car over to recharge it. What's wrong with that?

whereisk ,

I think the term "car free" is a misnomer, more like "car as a non primary form of transport for most people most of the time" is more accurate but doesn't roll off the tongue as well.

There are a lot of people with mobility issues in such cities that are serviced in different ways, a lot of times with specially licensed cars etc.

You do need to be living in a highly interconnected and "just-in-time" society to pull off the extreme version of minimalism.

Any disruption of your perfect delivery schedule means that you've gone from aesthetic minimalism to lacking necessities in an instant.

Having said that, I don't personally know anyone pulling off the extreme minimalism lifestyle.

In my experience, hoarding is much more common. I know a lot of people that have multiple cubic meters of stuff (their children's old clothes, toys, nice boxes, magazines etc) they will never use (they don't even know what they have) that they refuse to sell or throw away. That also seems very unhealthy.

    Easy: commit a petty crime in front of police.

    The government seems to have unlimited money to house, feed, provide 24 hours oversight and free healthcare when they imprison you.

    Not quite true for phones or anything with SSDs with trim enabled - in most scenarios the data is unrecoverable except for tiny fragments or if you go through some huge effort of pulling the flash chips out and also are lucky, true enough for memory cards or spinning disks though.

    whereisk ,

    Definitely not bulletproof - but unless they're after you specifically, and this is the only avenue remaining, the cost of attempting recovery and the risk of alerting you that they are in fact after you, when in the vast majority of circumstances it would yield very little, one would think there'd be cheaper ways to get your data directly from cloud providers or through other, more traditional methods.

    Then again I could be naive about this.

    I'm surprised no one mentioned Lazlo yet.

    This relates to the bible concept of firmament, flat earth and separation of waters, as in genesis when it says god separated waters above and below.

    The nomads knew wells, rain, islands, tides and flooding rivers, so the world they conceptualised was one where God moved water above and below to reveal dry land. As such in the story it seemed logically consistent to allow massive amounts of water to come from above and below returning the world in what they considered a previous, erased state to reboot it.

    W11 can run unlicensed indefinitely with the only downside being inability to customise the desktop background and a nag at the bottom right corner. They prefer to have the users rather than not. Though not sure re limitations in joining domains and the like.

    Government is bad except when it comes to brutal subjugation of out-groups I don't like, while the in-group gets protected and treated with kid gloves by the same.

    Unfortunately most of them are the dupes not the protected class they think they are - "they're hurting the wrong people" summed it up when it was uttered..

    First move of any new management is to take the worst possible stocktake and shine the worst possible light to last management's figures. Then any meagre positive movement or even if things remain the same will look like improvement.

    It's literally nonsense, and the equivalent of Christian Zionism / eschatology in that it's a set of incredibly harmful, baseless beliefs that advocate for mass misery in the name of vague hope of an accelerated magical delivery of human kind to a new era of happiness and joy.

    This "they'll win anyway" is some miserly nihilistic take - we've won against the Nazis before we'll win again.

    "how many times are as supposed to vote to prevent the fascists from gaining power?"

    Until you can no longer physically vote.

    You are part of a society that still allows you to politically organise around your beliefs, so get involved in your local politics and help bring your vision of a better future to more people - change doesn't happen by itself.

    Join a union. Get out there and make it happen.

    I didn't project beyond what conclusions your comment lead me to.

    Please do not put words in my mouth

    See, if I were to quote you directly I would have done it like this.

    Instead I used quotes without the indent, to paraphrase you in a way that I thought both accurately condensed and focused what you wrote in a way that highlighted what it came across to me as a ridiculous question.

    Given the threaded discussion structure where anyone can go back and see exactly what a person has written, the idea that I am somehow able to misrepresent you is a rather odd take.

    Perhaps "defeatist"?

    No.

    Sounded more like existential nihilism to me.

    Paraphrasing me as saying "they'll win anyway" in regards to fascists (nazis or otherwise) strips what I said of important context.

    You literally wrote

    until fascism wins anyway

    But I did strip the context of neoliberalism because I answered it a sentence later by urging you to get involved to make the world you want.

    There's nothing "lucky" about voting, anymore there's lucky in cleaning. You either clean or you'll live in filth. You either defend your rights or you have them eroded and taken away.

    The Republicans were not always fascists and the Democrats were not always so neoliberal which means things can change if enough people get involved to change them.

    Unions, local elections, political activism etc all matter.

    You don't expect perfection, you get involved and you vote in the public transport analogy.

    Do you mean OneDrive? There is an auto-recovery option Word separately from OneDrive that saves a copy every X number of minutes.

    whereisk ,

    Obsidian also.

    Go on, tell us how many elections away to obtaining absolute and permanent power the authoritarian left is - in a way that its troops will be roaming the streets rounding up undesirables.
