Because money.

It was mentioned in the threads, but I don’t think it got enough attention. Mostly it comes down to money. Yes, customization, efficiency, etc of Linux, but also because every $ not spent on licensing is a $ you can spend.on making the data center better. So maybe it’s buying.more hardware, or having more money for infrastructure like electricity , cooling, and bandwidth. Or just plain profit. Licensing is a nightmare with microsoft. Rather save the money and time and.make a better data center.

Times have changed…

On the up side, that is likely to be a short time.

Corruption, and running enterprises into the ground with. Our countries official power utility, our postal service, our railways, our police as examples. You know , the stuff we kind of need as citizens. Edit: Our taxation is world class though.

Hellscape barely covers it. But to balance that all put, lots of money has been made by those at the top. I think I need a drink now. That’s enough internet for today

Be careful looking up numbers online as well. There are lots of fake numbers and sites out there. Use previous known good communication as your guide for contacting the specific entity you are trying to contact. If at all possible. Also, smammers seem to have databases of scraped and leaked data so will often pull up your data based on your caller ID or other info you may disclose to them. Be careful out there.

My understanding is that should you disclose your credentials you would generally void any fraud protection the banks may offer.

As a fellow saffer, and a person who works with scam victims, I’m curious as to what services asked you to do that? Feel free to pm me.

Not die. But that’s a tough ask as my current retirement plan is unaliving.

Spite. Pure spite. Here, have some cancer you ungrateful bastards.

To be fair, they all exited the vehicle pretty quickly at the time without it needing to be unbolted from the outside. Experts… pfft.

This is sticking in my head much more than is comfortable. Fuck.
