BREAKING: Microsoft just announced several major changes to Windows 11 in an effort to win back user trust and evolve the platform into something people will actually want to use over macOS and Linux! It's a huge announcement that addresses Windows 11's biggest problems today, tackling core fundamental issues such as unreliable system performance, UX consistency, AI bloat and general enshittification. Microsoft has confirmed that this year, it WILL be reducing where ads and Copilot appear throughout the system, including in Start, Widgets, Notepad, Photos, and more! File Explorer and Windows Search will be upgraded with improved performance and capabilities that make finding apps and files much faster and easier. The OS will become lighter with less RAM and system utilization at idle, making it smoother to run on low end hardware with limited memory. These improvements will also benefit high-end PCs too. Windows Update will be improved with more granular controls and the ability to postpone updates for longer, along with reducing how often the OS needs to restart to install an update. Microsoft has also confirmed that it's bringing back fan favourite features such as the ability to move the Taskbar! It's also working to update more areas of the system shell with modern WinUI designs, which should make Windows 11 feel more coherent and complete. There's much more in the announcement, and it honestly all sounds too good to be true. Microsoft really is listening to feedback, and is eager to make Windows the BEST desktop OS on the market. More details including when these changes will arrive in the link! windowscentral.com/microsoft/wind…

"Jesus, Paul, look at this receipt—ten dollars for a single potato. This new Value-Mart AI surge pricing is killing me, man. Killing me." “That’s nothing, Bill. Wait ’til the next update: the store will be able to see exactly how much money you have in your bank.” “You’re kidding.” “And your 401k.” “@#$% me sideways.” “That’s why I use URCHN to do my groceries.” “Really? What’s URCHN?” “URCHN is the latest in affordable concierge shopping.” “Oh, you mean like Uber or Instacart. What makes them different?” “Orphans.” “𝑂𝑟𝑝ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑠?” “That’s right, Bill. And not just any orphans. Dirty, starving orphans who live under overpasses.” “Uuuh.” “As you know, the cameras in the grocery aisle scan your face and adjust the price based on race, socioeconomic status, and dietary restrictions. But you know who always gets the best prices, no matter what?” “…orphans?” “Yep.” “I don’t know, Paul, that seems a little-” “Of course, the AI still discriminates based on race, which is why they send a multi-racial team of no less than four dirty orphans to buy your groceries.” "Um." “The Latino child buys your rice, and the Asian child buys your tortillas.” “Yeah, no, I get it.” “And the black child-” “Sorry, uh, these are children, right? Small children?” “Of course. Teens would raise the price.” “How do they, uh, reach the items on the top shelves?” “They stand on each other’s emaciated little shoulders.” "Jesus." "Yeah, the Hispanic orphan tends to be on the bottom." "What?" "Sturdy stock." “…and how much do you save?” “My last potato was 34 cents.” “#$&@ it, I’m in.” --- [r][title: AI Surge Pricing]

Walmart is rolling out digital price tags at all of its stores. At the same time, the corporate giant just secured a patent for "dynamically and automatically updating item prices.” Plus another patent for using machine learning to predict demand and recommend prices.

@CountHaunted I think if you judge candidate value purely on the percentage of votes they get on a primary and not what they stand for or the myriad factors that affect those percentages you’re missing a lot of the mark here

Gonna be honest everyone’s been attacking Bushra over Kat’s loss but every progressive I know in district voted for her or admitted to me that Kat should’ve dropped out to back her. She was a better candidate with deep roots in district while Kat was seen as a vanity campaign.

There's plenty of appetite for progressivism, etc., within the Democratic electorate, but the Very Online version of it doesn't really travel well.

What Javier Bardem did within the most elite echo chamber inside the Oscars theatre is as morally contemptible as anything Harvey Weinstein did. He signalled that human rights don’t matter. Freedom for 90 million Iranians doesn’t matter. Ridding the world of the biggest financiers of terrorism doesn’t matter. Blaming it all on the Jewish people is the name of the game. FREE PALESTINE, and resounding applause. A room that has been curated by pushing anyone with decency and common sense out of sight. The same psychology is behind both men and both collectives. Narcissism. To behave like an entitled gangster in broad daylight and be protected by an industry of loons who have convinced themselves that they’ve evicted the patriarchy is a joke. They have built a new Titanic. Armed to the teeth by self-congratulatory terrorist apologists. Bardem, like Weinstein, made a fool of himself and everyone in Hollywood. Anyone next to him would be shunned to infinity if the world was anywhere near sane. And the biggest coward in all of this is the Jew who is protecting him. Ari Emmanuel.

@yashar Sadly, a state can file charges on paper thin arguments. As other courts have recognized and the CFTC affirms, Kalshi is subject to federal jurisdiction and it should not be overseen by a patchwork of inconsistent state laws.
