This stops Windows 11 from blocking the installation and lets you get the app back onto your PC. We're not sure if Microsoft has fixed this trick, but it's worth a shot if you want to keep using your favorite apps.

That's mildly distopian.

This prevents your car from shutting itself off when trying visit certain areas on the map. We're not sure if car manufacturers have fixed this trick, but it's worth a shot if you want to keep going to your favorite places.

And only a little tiny bit adversarial.

This is what ive been saying about windows vs Linux for years.

Linux isnt necessarily easy, but its collaborative and everybody's on the same side.

Windows is PvP, and now I'm seeing fucking Hangul characters in chat, and I'm afraid. I don't even use it anymore.

Hangul characters in chat

You're afraid of Korean speakers?

In a cafe? No. In a video game lobby? I played way too much StarCraft.

Lol. :)

My wife is Korean and I noped out of playing StarCraft when I visited her family. I also worked with a "minor-league" StarCraft player (played on Euro servers with a team) and a regular Korean guy, and it was always close when we'd do lan games at work afterhours (us normies would die off early and watch as those two duked it out).

So yeah, I get it. Koreans are hardcore...
