@arstechnica yeah I'm exceedingly careful when I'm about to sneeze. My sneezes generate a category 5 hurricane. 🤣 Which basically means I stop what I'm doing brace myself. There have been times where I've pulled a muscle sneezing and popped capillaries. The one thing you do not want to do though is sneeze while taking a dump at the same time. Dear God that hurts.

@arstechnica This is a reason why I probably will never go with a company who is new. Most of the auto companies have been around 50+ years now, established and knows how to make a car. As an example, I like Rivian but so much of their tech in their car is tied up in cloud services that if VW hadn't stepped in I'm not sure about their long term viability. They were burning through money like.....well like Tesla and them needing a cash infusion from time to time.

@arstechnica while I won't go back to Windows, off by default is not enough. The fact that it is even there and can be turned on is a major issue for me. It's like the sword of Damocles hanging over your head. What makes this even worse is managers using this to super micro manage people god forbid you spend 5 min here or there doing something else out of 8 hours in a day. Nope. Microsoft can F right off with this crap.
