Oh, you're right, I forgot it already has an i for intelligence.

That's the German spelling for English.

For more context, it was a Windows 8.1 license I upgraded to 11. But yes, still crazy they let it "expire" when using the exact same hardware. My theory is that because the BIOS update changed my TPM keys, Windows couldn't tell that it was the same hardware.

I had been dual booting for a while with Windows 11/Fedora until one day I needed to update the BIOS on my motherboard. Windows decided it was too big of an upgrade and wanted me to activate again. I called support, and they said that I had used up all my activations and would need to buy a new copy.

Thanks Microsoft, for helping me switch full time to Linux!

The UN would likely consider it a violation of their human rights if a country knowingly allowed a citizen to become stateless. I would hope that at least all member states would not allow it, but I don't know for certain.

Not sure if that was intentional, but I suppose it's technically correct.

I've been using ForwardEmail, and have been happy with them so far. Their free tier only allows aliasing, but the cheapest paid tier is only $3/month, and you can use Thunderbird/K-9 as your mail client.

The title isn't meant to be manipulative to trick you into reading the paper, it's meant to be a clever way to make the title relevant to the actual topic of the study.

Oh, right. I forgot many admins don't have physical access to the machines, just saw this in another Lemmy post: https://lemm.ee/post/37448621

Do the computers always bsod right away, or can they boot long enough to try getting their recovery keys?
