My company (130,000 employees) sticks to 24H2. IT wouldn’t approve the 25H2. Don’t know whether the refusal to upgrade hurts Microsoft in any way, but if it does, I think we’re big enough to be on their radar, and perhaps they talk to our IT about concerns and complaints we may have.
I recently did a return trip from Dublin to Boston and back. Each ticket was 1 Euro; rhe rest was airport taxes, government levies, etc.
In the past, pre-covid, 1 Euro tickets were not unusual. Part of the reason why Ryanair became so dominant was that they contracted with secondary airports that had much lower fees, so the final price was below what the competitors could offer.
6 and 7. For now, I’ll be monitoring their activity, and we’ll see whether they’ll need any locks. Probably internet filtering on the router.
My kids are getting mini PC’s for Christmas, preinstalled with Mint. They use tablets now, but I want to introduce them to the joys of keyboards and mice (and The Secret of Monkey Island). I hope they’ll like it, so that in the future they’ll stick to PC’s and laptops, which offer far more robust control by the end user.
I don’t watch others playing games, either, but someone who likes those streams told me he didn’t see a difference between watching good gamers play games and good football players play football.
On the other hand, Anazon once shipped me a lightbulb for my oven in and envelope. It came nice and flat, in many, many pieces.
I installed Office 97 from 49 floppies on a bunch of office computers. We didn’t have CD-rom drives, so we requested the floppies from Microsoft (this was a free of charge service). Took me a week. Got into graphic novels, as I was waiting for each floppy to load.
