Still not the kind of thing the average person was ever going to watch a four hour video on, regardless of attention span.

Why is it that whenever something is spitting out junk data, those specific characters are involved?

Nothing says "small government" and "freedom" quite like mass surveillance.

Things happen by accident or on purpose. No one over the age of 3 should be using "on accident".

I have a lot of questions for whoever set that up in the first place, first and foremost of which is: why in the everlasting fuck was that computer ever attached to the internet? At most it should be allowed internal network access only.

Which conversions? Most metric conversions are drastically simpler than their imperial counterparts.

Wait, is that a random number, or the actual scale of the power draw we're talking about?

'Cause that's fuck-all when we're talking about industrial level power draw.

Not important enough to me at this point to spend the time changing over. Windows 10 does what I need it to and still gets security updates. When one of those two factors changed, then it will be worth my time to change over.

Microsoft has made the choice very easy for me. I still have an i7-7700k that works just fine. But that's "too old", so when Windows 10 hits end of life, I'll be switching over to Linux.

the ads are minimally intrusive — that is, highly relevant and engaging — they should not detract from the overall user experience

In what universe do ads, no matter how "relevant and engaging", ever not detract from the overall experience?

Many motorcycles (not bicycles, those are irrelevant to the comparison) already have more torque off the line than the available traction can handle, so that benefit from electric motors is less critical. The wear is a concern because motorcycles are already more sensitive to tire wear than cars, and simply switching to a harder compound to account for the extra weight has other ramifications that are far less severe in electric cars.
