Not sure if it was Trump or Fox News but one them also said something along the lines of the shoes would be enough to win over black people cause they like sneakers.

It's like a child saw their mom whippin up chicken parmesan in the kitchen one day. So they took their KFC dinner. Threw some cheese and tomato sauce on it and put it in the microwave. Trying to make food like mommy.

It's shitty of Microsoft to demand you make an account to use a product you spent a bunch of money on knowing that the workarounds will probably be too much of a pain in the ass or too intimidating for a lot of people and they'll just give in anyway. Tech companies suck shit.

It takes like 30 seconds my dude. This man supposedly designs cars, for people to drive, that could kill people if designed badly...and he can't figure out something I did in my free time in like 2 minutes.

He's just fucking lazy as shit and cries like a baby about everything and I'm tired of pretending he's not a spoiled brat who can't actually do anything on his own. I'm not really sure the relevance of MSs account policies when it comes to his inability to navigate the most well documented operated system in the world.

The solutions provided on that page have never worked for me. Apparently some options only show up on "pro" versions of Windows.

I have read other solutions before that never worked either because there never was a "offline account" button.

The only thing that has worked for me is unplugging my router and THEN during the installation setup it couldn't find a wi-fi

connection, and thus, bypass the Microsoft account prompt.

Einstein could barely find his way home at the end of a day of work but came up with some groundbreaking stuff. Just because someone's good at one thing doesn't mean they'll be good at other things, and tbh a lot of tech products and websites have gotten less user friendly over the years.

Sounds like Musk is living in your head rent free tho 😂

Einstein had a bit of an ego from what I've heard.

But you quoted a post where I did not mention him at all and responded with a rant about how much you dont like Musk. I think that qualifies as rent free, my friend 😂

After you quoted my post about what an idiot he was. Why did you quote my post if your response to me was completely irrelevant to what I said? I didn't say anything about MSs account policies so why did you respond to me and not VgirginDefiler who posted the story?

Did you quote the wrong person and thays why you response has nothing to do with my original comment?

Cuz the only conclusion I could come to for quoting me is that Musk has something to do with your response, that his complaint is valid (it's not) because yoy don't like MSs account policies.

So if your response had nothing to do with Musk and my comment had nothing to domwith MS account policies, why did you quote me at all and not VirginDefiler who posted the story? Generally when you quote someone it's because your reaponse is relevant to quoted portion...so what gives?

Edit: I will say Elon gets under my skin in ways Einstein can't because Einstein is fucking dead. I don't have to see him in my news feed and on my TV saying the dumbest fucking shit on the planet ever fucking day. Can't get through the morning news weather reports without hearing what dumb fuck Elons opinion about shit he shouldn't have opinions on is today. Like Elon does stuff and effects government policies today. He and the things he does and says impact my life today. What impact on my life right now today does Einstein have in his pinewood box?

Gives Einstein a real leg up on Elon I tell you what.

Oppenheimer is more directly responsible for that. Einstein calculated the energy released by splitting the atom but had no direct involvement in the know-how to do it. In fact, he was not even given security clearance to work on the Manhatten Project. He did advocate that the US look into building one before Germany though.

I know, but without his work, they never would have gotten to the point of being able to make the bomb in the first place. I don't blame him for it, the work was out of his hands at that point, but it was instrumental in the creation.

It's not shitty tho. It's barely a thing at all, as I said it takes 30 seconds to tell them "no thanks" and keep it moving. How is it shitty for them to give you options and the instructions on their own website to do what you want? You just saying it's shitty doesn't make it actually shitty. Like Elon you seem to barely understand the service and software we are talking about. This conversation has taken longer then it takes to opt out of a MS account that is not required at all.

Oppenheimer has more to do with that then Einstein does. While his work was used as a launching point for the eventual bomb he himself did not create the Bomb so he himself has little to do with its impact on me. That would be Oppenheimer and his team. This would be like saying School shootings are China's fault for inventing Gunpowder lol.

Musk puts cars on the road every day on the roads i use every day but he can't set up Windows 11 the way he wants, but his cars are supposed to be self driving? Did Einstein propose a public transport solution for Californa and then deliver jack fuck and shit? I'm a huge supporter of public transit and walkable cities. Elons Hyperloop killed the proposed Train n in Cali we in Arizona where looking at Cali and their Train as a solution for Arizona public transit long distance, but now we don't get any of that data becauee Elon lied about the Hyperloop to Cali, so they didn't get a train or a car tunnel.

So now our public transit proposal here in AZ is on pause cuz we aren't gonna get the Daya we wanted to from Cali.

Two dead dudes just don't ping on my radar when it comes to an alive dude making promises he never intends to keep that fucks up shit for normal people.

Like its sad as fuck I'm talking about Elon and you're going "Yea but what about Einstein!!!" Who fucking cares about Einstein in 2024? If you can find quotes of Einstein talking about we should bring back company towns or something then maybe I'll put him on the same level as Elon spoiled brat Musk. When there's proof of Einstein engaging in Market Manipulation then maybe I'll put on him on Elons level. Did Einstein ever fuck with the services he provided other countries because he was trying to play both sides of a war for profit? I dunno how else to describe Elons constant fucking with Starlink.

I'd say Einstein's theory of relativity has a much bigger impact on our understanding of physics and how the universe works than just the atomic bomb. Yes, his work provided the basis for nuclear research, and you're right that it was instrumental, but his lasting impact is much bigger than that, imo.

THis thing where you read exactly two words before you hit respond needs to stop.

And this is a bunch of anti-consumer nonsense you're only co-signing because you have a hate boner for Musk and if you clicked on the twitter thread, you'd see that some of the workarounds no longer work. I've been in this exact same situation trying to set up a work computer for my wife. Imagine having to go into the terminal (assuming it'll even let you in there from the jump) to get around having to waste your time making some account you'll never use only because Microsoft feels entitled to all sorts of invasive data scraping just so you can use a computer you paid hundreds if not over a grand for. That's what you're cosigning. Old boomer ass "i pulled myself up by my bootstraps why can't you?" ass

I honestly don't give a fuck about their account bullshit either way, its the moat minor of MS issues, has nothing to do with Elon, you brought up their account shit not me. I was knocking a so called brilliant engineer not being able figure out basic windows shit.

And no clicking on the Twitter Thread wouldn't show me the replies because dumb fuck Elon Musk made it so only account holders can see threads, because irony of fucking ironies Elon Musk feels entitled to me making an account to view threads so he can scrape my data for information to sell, the very thing you are bitching at MS for. I can only see his one post whining about it you assumption making dick head, I can't see anything on Twitter/X beyond the basic post because I don't have an account. So take your "click the link" argument and shove it up your ass. Dumb fuck Elon made it so I can't see them without jumping through hoops, the thing he and you are currently fucking crying about.

Christ man. Just fuck off bro, you have said multiple times you hate the way I respond shit yet you keep fucking responding to me. Just fucking stop if you hate my shit so much. You quoted me and responded with some irrelvant ass shit that had fuck all to do with what I was talking about and now youre just personally insulting me over and over.

Where's a live volcano when you need one?

VirginDefiler · February 26

reason why ms is pullin that shit is cuz theyre tryin to copy how phones make money post purchase of the hardware with the whole "you renting not buying" philosophy.

when PCs first came out in the 80s. there was no net. you bought a computer. period.

since smartphones came post net. they realized after u buy the phone they can still make money post purchase with their bs bloatware apps.

thats all. they just tryin to copy paste that new business model.

they force u to make a needless account in the hopes that u buy something from the ms store. via their apps.

thats why when i saw win11 and how much it looks like a phone ui. i was like nah. i'll stick with win10. which also was phoneish regarding ui. but win11 is just plain gross in its phonish look.

we all hate the forced ms account thing. its all greed.

p/s/

im glad pc came before the net, not the other way around. cuz in those days...you owned a computer, you werent "renting" it like cell phones.

cuz we renting cell phones. dont believe me, delete bloatware apps and see if it doesnt screw up your phone's performance. its designed to punish you for removing their bloatware apps. or try flashing a diff os and see if it bricks the phone.

on a pc pre win10 u could install any os.

i doubt u still can these greedy days.

RSG3 · February 26

Software has always been by license it's technically always been a rental. You only own that one specific copy, and they started limiting installs long before cellphones lol.

It's deffinitly a shitty practice but pretty easy to bypass if yoy just take a minute or two. It's like how they do shit like have auto pay automatically checked. Should they? No. Is it easy to fix? Yea.

And yes you can still install any OS on a PC you want. Linux is still a thing lol. It's not even the only alternative option to Apple/Microsoft. Honestly it's easier today to use other options then it's ever been in the past.

But I'm not imagining it. I'm not talking about everyone, I'm talking about 1 very specific person who is supposed to be an engineer. Where the hell am I assuming every laptop owner is an engineer? I'm talking about Elon Musk, remember? I'm not a fucking IT/Engineer and I figured it out for my Laptop and my Thinkstation so clearly not everyone who owns a PC is in IT and yet can still fucking figure this out with minimal effort, so why can't Elon who is an Engineer?

Bro you can't call me a Boomer when you don't even know how Twitter works. Just stop it. The personal attacks are getting pathetic. The only one behaving like a Boomer here is you. You can't even follow this basic conversation. It's about 1 person, not every person who buys a Laptop.

I actually do read your entire posts you just don't like how I respond to them and your only out for it after starting this goofy confrontation is to assume i'm not reading the whole thing. It's just not all you type is worth responding to imo and that bothers you. I'm not gonna quote the entire post and make these walls of text any worse then they already are.

Youre just butthurt I don't agree with you, so you have to belittle me and insult me, and pretend I'm not reading your entire posts for some reason.

You can't accuse me of not reading and then post shit like "Imagine thinking everyone who owns a laptop is an IT person" when I never said that, not once, never said anything like it. You can't to accuse me of not reading while also putting words in my mouth. I'm talking about Elon not being able to do what a basic IT professional can, and he's an IT/Engineer professional. I'm talking about Elon.

Frankly this entire thing looks like youre butt hurt I shit on Elon Musk. I'm not sucking Elons dick and you seem really upset about that.

The actual problem with Musk in this context is just that he compulsively makes his every take, good, bad, or indifferent, utterly famous.

Say what you want about Einstein, dude didn't leverage his physics success to buy up a slice of media and then use it to put every thought in his head up to public scrutiny.
