More public funding, less corporate interference in our government’s processes. We might actually find that Congress and state legislators listen to their constituents instead of conflicting corporate interests.
If you aren’t lactose intolerant, this is something I just recently learned: chew your food very well. I know, it sounds like a given, but our stomachs and intestines don’t have teeth or any effective way to grind our food down into tiny pieces. Even something that seems softer, like cheese pizza, is a lot of work to break down into digestible pieces past our mouths. To some extent I have caused myself needless suffering by underchewing my food.
Weird way to think about it “drink your food, chew your drinks” let your saliva work on the stuff too.
Just think of it this way, that dude placed all his eggs in the academic basket and thinks of himself so highly, or has such an inferiority complex, that he patronized a child.
Let it be a lesson that humility goes much further than an inflated ego. He may have tenure but one day he may realize just how many people he let down instead of actually being helpful or useful with the knowledge he amassed.

This lines up, I think Windows Embedded had a purpose when Linux wasn’t as useful for setting up just about anything. The only purpose for Windows Embedded these days is the technical knowledge sunk into making it work for these applications. There are still plenty of production systems hanging out running the old Embedded OS versions.
It looks like Microsoft is aware that continuous support for Embedded is a sunk cost when they can help get these systems on Linux, maybe even running using Azure resources.
Windows Embedded Compact 2013 is the final version of Windows CE. It had mainstream support until October 9, 2018, and extended support ended on October 10, 2023; however, new license sales to OEMs are continued until 2028.
Wide-scale wiretapping in a Five Eyes country? Say it ain’t so!
In all seriousness, how is it the federal government can sanction illegal activity for corporations such as wiretapping? This is what Richard Nixon and his administration got slammed for not even 50 years ago, now it’s par for the course.
I want the minutes of my life before seeing that comment back
