  Windows is really pushing people to sign into a microsoft account
Posted by: nzoomed - 12-02-2025, 01:00 PM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (4)

With the recent updates, im seeing more and more instances of windows asking to sign into a Microsoft without any apparent way to skip the process.
Ive found in the past you can just click on skip, but now im seeing that those options are unavailable. One workaround is alt+f4 or alt+ctrl+del and close the prompt, but as usual people are inadvertently registering a Microsoft account and forgetting their passwords, sigh...

Would be great if there was some way to block this from happening by means of the registry or potentially blocking through the hosts file, etc

  The 'trad wife"

Allegedly a 'growing trend'...apparently, the husband is the 'natural head of the household'. Which comes as something of a shock to those of us who did most of it alone.. Big Grin Big Grin

Yeah...simply have a frontal lobotomy & hey presto - a trad wife.. Rolleyes Dodgy

  "Not clear where evicted tenants will go'
Posted by: Lilith7 - 12-02-2025, 10:58 AM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - No Replies

Ah well - doesn't matter does it eh - they're only poor people aren't they. Dodgy

You have to wonder just how many people they want to become homeless...

 They do seem to be keen on ignoring the inconvenient fact that, if somone's struggling on a low income, to the point where they owe rent, then taking more from that limited income just isn't going to be awfully helpful. Particularly if the tenant also has mental health problems.

The two dogs are called Cody and Blue, the man responsible for the Drone videography and activities in general is Andrew Camarata, who is well known on uTube.

Take a bit of time to watch this it's really quite entertaining, the dogs on their own are worth watching.

Filmed in the area around Saugerties a town in New York State in the Catskills.

You can't make this shit up.
Whoever approved this is fucked in the head.
That's why it's so important that the treaty principles bill passes.

The 'anti chtristian bias' seems to be basic B.S, which makes him look wonderful to his more gulible followers.
The water was interesting & might be hilarious if it wasn't a brilliant illustration of his ineptness.
The 'removed references  climate change' shows off his ignorance - again.

Increased access for Musk's Doge might be dangerous,& revoking Biden's security clearance is sheer childish spitefulness. 
Stopping the task force which had seized assets of Russian oligarchs is interesting; he claims it frees resources for more imrportant things...
