Just like regular libraries have copyrighted books: they lend them to one person at a time.

Funnily enough, this equal symbol in the if statement wouldn’t be, in a lot of languages, a comparison symbol but an assignment symbol.

This means that every person would be considered Palestinian, even before determining if they’re Hamas. So even if you correct the else statement, everyone would still die.

Just an update because I just figured what happened: I booted the iso through Ventoy, and just saw today that by default Ventoy injects register entries to bypass the online account requirement (as well as the hardware checks). Good to know.

Genuine W11 iso, downloaded directly from MS website a few weeks ago, no modification. It was a Pro version if I remember correctly. I tested it on a 2015 Surface Pro. I was already connected to the network and did not click “Domain join” (I would have if it had asked for a MS account).

Just this week I installed W11 on a laptop (temporarily, I just wanted to see how it ran on this hardware), and despite being connected to the it asked me, by default, for a username for the local account. I don’t know why, but it didn’t ask for a MS account first.

Did you recently (or less recently) stop breathing for more than 10 minutes, and if so, are you or not a professional freediver?

At first I thought “This guy’s done”, then I thought “There are still Russians not indoctrinated, and they got balls. Let’s hope it sparkles some things in others”.

The only use I have for Google Assistant is to call people when I’m in my car, and even then it doesn’t work correctly.

• “Call <wife’s first name>” -> Calls a business in a neighbouring country which happens to have the same (common) name as my wife.
• “Call <wife’s first and last name>” -> Calls my wife.
• “Call <father’s first and last name>” -> Calls another business in the same neighbouring country which name contains my father’s first and last name.
• “Call <father’s first name>” -> Calls my father.

Wtf really. Those two businesses must keep wondering who’s that number that keeps calling them at absurd times from another country and never leaves a message, because I can never remember who I must use the full name of…
