The latest kerfuffle will only be seen by Enterprise users running Windows 11 24H2 or 25H2 who have a July 2025 cumulative update installed as well.

Are you running Windows 11 Enterprise?

They’re already getting sued over ChatGPT helping people commit suicide. Imagine the uproar once the advice comes with ads for rope, knives, etc…

“Our deepest sympathies are with the Raine family for their unimaginable loss,” OpenAI said in its blog, while its filing acknowledged, “Adam Raine’s death is a tragedy.” But “at the same time,” it’s essential to consider all the available context, OpenAI’s filing said, including that OpenAI has a mission to build AI that “benefits all of humanity” and is supposedly a pioneer in chatbot safety.

How the fuck is OpenAI’s mission relevant to the case? Are suggesting that their mission is worth a few deaths?

You can use distrobox/distroshelf to set up a container with a regular distro and install packages in that instead of layering; if a package installs a GUI application you can export the application and it will show up in your applications menu.

They have a pro version that adds AI features, no idea the pricing yet though.

The aricle says the AI stuff is tied to Canva’s Premium subscription, which is 120 USD/year:

Gizmodo’s article has more detail.

Grey’s Anatomy has had a couple of spinoffs (Private Practice, Station 19) so I’d say it counts as a franchise.

Maybe if the robots get damaged at the same rate their workers get injured they’ll get more interested in safety.

Their web page doesn’t really mention self-hosting, but there’s github link way down at the bottom and that has self-hosting instructions.

Apple Music has an Android app.

Apple Music has a family plan, and it’s cheaper than Spotify’s, at least in Canada (16.99 vs 20.99).

Qobuz has a family plan too, a little more expensive than Apple’s here but still cheaper than Spotify’s.

It’s just a one-off transfer, I’m not planning to stop the transfer, and it’s my media library, so nothing should change, but I figured something resumable is a good idea for a transfer that’s going to take 12+ hours, in case there’s an unplanned stop.

I was planning to use rsync to ship several TB of stuff from my old NAS to my new one soon. Since we’re already talking about rsync, I guess I may as well ask if this is right way to go?

You can disable that

• On the Xbox home screen, go to “My Games and Apps.”
• Then, go to “Apps,” “Settings,” “General,” and “Personalization.”
• Go to “Games and Apps,” then scroll to the right until the three boxes below “Choose whether game hubs open automatically from the following places.”

Including Fortnite Crew in Game Pass Ultimate is a terrible justification for the 50% price increase. How many people who play Fortnite enough for Crew to be useful also play other games enough for Game Pass Ultimate to be worthwhile?

When was the last time you checked? A client was added to the WebOS store maybe 2 or 3 years ago for recent models, and support for older models (like my C9) came months later.
