Yeah skimming it very briefly, it looks like your instance doesn't even show bot indicators, so, no way you could've known really. But there should be a button to turn it off somewhere in your user settings, probably down near the bottom.

I mean I can certainly understand where the confusion may have come from.

Thank god, for a second there I thought they meant "cracking down on people dodging Windows 11 by intentionally disabling TPM," like I've been doing. False alarm, carry on.

I know for a fact I've said I was going to "Xerox some copies" on a machine that was almost certainly not manufactured by the Xerox Holdings Corporation.

Someone, somewhere has evidently misinterpreted the fact that US presidential candidate Kamala Harris (pictured center) is of Indian ancestry - as in her family is from the country in south Asia - and instead photoshopped her into the stereotypical Native American "Indian" aesthetic. Why they have chosen to do this eludes me.

"Security footage shows several ne'er-do-wells in domino masks fleeing the scene with a number of burlap sacks, clearly-marked with bright green dollar signs, no doubt containing the compromised data. AT&T security suggests the culprits must have 'jimmied open' their servers with a crowbar, or perhaps a bundle of dynamite detonated via plunger from a safe distance. One suspect is currently in police custody after attempting to escape through a tunnel painted on the side of a brick wall. More on this story as it develops."

This deal is getting worse all the time!

I've experienced this, or at least something that very closely fits its description, a couple times in the past, and it varies on a case-by-case basis. One time it was almost like the sound of glass breaking, I think one time might've been closer to a door slamming. Weird shit.

And, same deal as the other fella, hard to remember the specifics 'cause you're sorta half-asleep when it happens.

Shit, an emulator getting taken down for... actual copyright infringement? You don't see that every day.

Well your corp don't dance and if it don't dance then it's no friend of mine

"Djinn", specifically, being the correct word choice. We're way past fun-loving blue cartoon Robin Williams genies granting wishes, doing impressions of Jack Nicholson and getting into madcap hijinks. We're back into fuckin'... shapeshifting cobras woven of fire and dust by the archdevil Iblis, hiding in caves and slithering out into the desert at night to tempt mortal men to sin. That mythologically-accurate shit.
