    Upierczi got a reaction from Teddy07 in Off Topic Chit Chat   
    I was happy to find out that EVGA runs a nice EU shop that ships in most countries that are in the EU. Definitively will make a change in the next upgrade or build cycle. Especially since I want to be consistent with who makes what in my build.

    So, if I buy a game on steam, e.g. GTA V and download it, then I'm pirating their music? What if someone watches Netflix on a daily basis in their 4k TV? This makes no sense whatsoever. It's like you see a house on fire, and someone is setting up their barbeque five blocks away and you blame them for the fire.

    Upierczi got a reaction from LAwLz in Microsoft pauses Windows 10 version 1809 rollout   
    I'm glad Microsoft decided to pull the parking brake and stall the update to fix the issues. People losing data is a big no-no for a modern OS to do. I fault them for forcing OneDrive down the user's throats without effectivelly testing customized system folders on a huge feature update like this one. What I find more annoying is that when people begun having issues, or losing data, others brought up "Oh I have no issues! Windows 10 is great!" like, guys, please, telling people you have no issues doesn't change anything, it makes it worse for people who have problems to resolve them, and in fact cultivates a bad mentality that happens fairly often in some communities particurarily OSX focused ones.

    Upierczi got a reaction from Delicieuxz in Dutch authorities release information about a Russian attemp to infiltrate the network of the Organisation for the Prevention of Chemical Weapons   
    Just another chapter in the modern spin of the cold war. One country or agency does a virtual attack to another's, and vice versa. It's typical run of the mill espionage countries do to one another, and it's nothing too surprising. These have been going for a while, increasing in the past decade or so. News stations avoid to mention the various West-sponsored retaliations. (After all, you can't fault the side you are in. Whether you claim it's their fault, and you have security and networking engineer agencies actively working on retaliation in the background, all for national security.) These things aren't new, nor it's worth starting a physical war over these. What you do is use anything you catch as means to put pressure to the other party. (There's nothing more embarrassing than being caught and having to go to great lengths to cover your tracks or deny everything, or simply bite down another sanction)

    wow, huge surprise with the EVGA EU shop because of same day delivery. I thought it will take a while because it is an EU shop after all and not one specifically for my country.
     
    There is also a holiday in my country today but I guess not in Belgium ?

    How dont you test something before a rollout to everyone and with a "bug" as serious as this?
     
    I cant believe this was ever possible. This is pure and simple incompetence, people should sue their asses for all their money.

    And, on top of this, Microsoft collects data on whether or not you have a licensed OS. So, by using an unlicensed one, you are blatantly ignoring Microsoft.  Hell yeah, they know. Great.
     
    You know what? If you really want to have the guilt of a "legit" license, press Windows + R and type the following:
    SLMGR -REARM Then hit enter. Yay! Now you have a "legit" license activated! Except you don't. All this does is removes the watermark and tells windows that it's activated. This is what the "legit" licenses do. You pay money to trick the system into thinking it's licensed.  Happy now?
