I also love how outfits like Tom’s Hardware are acting like the update to require Windows Hello authentication before using Recall is privacy enhancing. At least in the US, if a biometric is all that is between a state-level actor and your encrypted data, the biometric mechanism isn’t constitutionally protected according to current precedent - passwords are (though there may be subsequent obstruction charges in the event of refusal to comply with a password request).

It helps with the ergonomics of needing to lean in to read Teams on a shitty dim low resolution display they somehow sourced from 20 years ago. HR is thoughtful when it comes to this kind of stuff.

I’m just imagining @[email protected] microwaving a cup of water for way too long to absolutely volcanic results and then throwing up his hands in disgust before walking away from the swampy microwave without bothering to clean the mess up like a scene out of some infomercial for a device that solves microwave issues that don’t exist lol

You gotta clean the microwave regularly like anything else. There are reasons why I would probably use my stove top over my microwave to boil water (though I do use a microwave to make tea when I just want a single serving), but your points about water splashing up everywhere and dripping down off of disgusting interior surfaces of the microwave sound a lot like operator error.

only lol
