I use the Enterprise SKU of Windows 11 and you can fortunately still use the Domain Join option with that. Comes without that advertisement crap as well. The only caveat is that you can’t really activate Enterprise legally without a subscription and KMS but there are ways to circumvent that issue ;)

“ According to 49 U.S. Code § 46317, you cannot fly, or attempt to fly, an aircraft without the proper licensure. The penalty for violating this code can be substantial, with a maximum punishment of 3 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.”

That’s a lot worse than getting pulled over with no driver’s license.

With how many B-52s that carried thermonuclear bombs and crashed, I’m glad the US didn’t accidentally nuke itself and other countries.

I can’t remember Skyrim or Fallout 4 releasing in that bad of a state and I’ve owned those games since release. Fallout 76 on the other hand… Yikes. I might also be completely wrong as years of playing with unofficial community patches may have clouded my memories. CP2077 had way more issues than just bugs at launch. Witcher 3 was buggy as well, but at least somewhat feature complete. I can kinda forgive jank in games if the product itself is compelling to me and I’m just a sucker for Bethesda-style RPGs. Will still be waiting for Starfield’s launch on GamePass before I buy it, Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 had awful writing and that’s nothing that a patch can fix.

74% market share for desktop OS is actually a lot less than I thought. Guess macOS had a solid comeback

And they built the Burj Khalifa!

Especially cause CSGO crashes when you change graphics settings in-game all the time

I have two landline numbers that came with my internet contract but I don’t have a phone connected to the modem. So whenever your scenario happens to me I just give them one of my real landline numbers. I’ve tried calling myself and you can actually hear it ringing as the caller but no one will ever pick up lol

That’s why EULAs or other contracts are not necessarily legally binding if they contain specific parts that could be considered “unfair”; at least in the European Union.

In Germany, BMW and VW both offer subscriptions for functionality already built into the car. BMW is notorious for their heated seat subscription here and the Mk8 Golf I leased for a while had a bunch of minor stuff pay-walled like automatic high beams, changing color of the interior ambient lighting, etc.

You can still outright buy those features but it’s totally insane to pay for something that’s already physically inside the car. And it’s not like these are budget brands that need to upsell a bunch of stuff to be profitable. A base Golf starts at €31k…

Frankfurt Airport is very good when it comes to security screening. They even have those fancy new X-Ray machines where you don’t need to remove your electronic devices from your carry-on and such. The last few times I flew from there I got off the bus in front of the terminal and sat at my gate in less than 20 minutes.

Mich wundert es, dass überhaupt noch 200er nd 500er gefälscht werden. Die sind schon als Echtgeld extrem rar. Ich glaube ich habe in meinem Leben bisher 5 mal 'nen 200er und nur einmal einen 500€-Schein in echt gesehen. Als Fälscher würde ich mir eher 5er und 10er drucken und damit den Rest meines Lebens kostenlos Döner essen. Alles ab 20€ aufwärts wird ja mittlerweile bei den meisten Läden mit Stift oder UV geprüft.
