ngl I read that as “fights” at first, and I was intrigued!
Turns out Jackson is also a master at reading bedtime stories…
This is how Scotty survived being trapped in that Dyson Sphere for all that time…
Hopefully you don’t care, but in case you do I didn’t downvote you. I was not offended, but I am grateful I had an opportunity to share some of the unique insights I’ve experienced.
I never said it was a good thing. I was just commenting on the aggressive nature of Brazil LEO. Microsoft in particular bends over backwards for any gov’t or LEO. I can only assume the Feds got substantial leverage over them, perhaps by manipulating the antitrust cases. Same tactics they use on the smaller guys works on the big corps too I guess. Top customer of MS legal compliance is by far the US Fed with 5000-7000 blanket surveillance of Americans presumably part of PRISM. Second highest is definitely Brazil, and they are very demanding and impatient.
Back in 2016, MS was advertising Customer Lockbox as an answer to gov’t intrusion into customer privacy. It sounded perfect. Customer gets encryption keys so MS cannot comply with lawful interception requests. I think Apple does this, and it works well for them and their customers. However today I cannot tell if MS lied, dismantled this aspect of this feature, or buried it such that no one uses this ability.
While we’re talking about MS playing snitch, watch out for Windows 11 and the TPM hardware requirement. Sure this might be a useful tool to fight ransomware scammers, but it definitely can also be used to fingerprint a PC and make everything potentially traceable. Look up machine identification code aka yellow dots for a nifty parallel in the printer world (pun intended).
I generally agree, but I feel like Windows 8.1 was a vast improvement on 8. It was really more like Windows 9 with a Windows 8 theme.
Brazil does not fuck around. They famously jailed several Microsoft execs when they didn’t hand over some emails a few years ago.
Edit: Skype data not emails and one exec

It means you can “dock” your phone with a consenting bro’s phone also displaying this symbol by facing each other, grasp your device firmly, and touch the tips together.
I see The Road primarily, but I could also give a nod to The Road Warrior…
This is 100% to try to force more OneDrive subs…
As you get older you care less and less what people think, and you get better and better at taking care of numero uno.
I invite you to stick around long enough to see that this is true, no matter how implausible it might seem right now.
The dominant theory is since there are no bathrooms anywhere on any Star Trek show, the transporters would have to be involved somehow.
Makes me think of an Ikv 65.
Ultima III and/or Alternate Reality: The City, based on the C64 versions.
Texas also sits next to a very warm body of water. Swimming in it is like bathing in a pool of hot sweat. The humidity is off the charts. I could get a general read on the comfort level by which direction the planes were landing and taking off. They always head into the wind. One direction meant high temps plus high humidity, and the other meant less off both due to a cool front blowing in from up north.
California has the opposite. Sure most of it is a desert, but the cool Pacific Ocean cools the air and contributes a lot less humidity.
My current theory on the whole meme:
DISCLAIMER: I have tried neither grip tape and hot sauce covered dildos nor Arch Linux but you get the concept I’m trying to convey I hope.
In the US, agents must petition a judge for a search warrant. If granted, the agent may then compel an IT company to produce. If they are able, they must comply. It isn’t up to the CEO to decide what he feels is right.
Look for services that allow your data to be encrypted, but it must also clearly state the service provider does not have the encryption keys – you do. Apple does this, I believe.
