Inconclusive. Re-used machines instead of new computers. Systems did have Windows 11 on them. OOBE\BypassNRO worked, but they may have pending updates.
Edit: one machine would not let me skip MS account sign in with OOBE\BypassNRO. IPConfig /Release immediately let me set up a local account.
OOBE\BYPASSNRO has been off and on for me, but so far nuking the network connection has always worked for me. I’m setting up a few new computers tomorrow, it will be interesting to see what tricks still work.
My go to is to pop open the console and run “ipconfig /release” right before you create an account. Win 11 will have you set up a local account if you don’t have a network connection.
I just click on “domain login”
It’s regular Windows 11, not Enterprise
You need to have 11 Pro or better to domain join a computer.
Your computer would also need to be joined to your domain to allow the login, so there is definitely some config going on that is not available to the typical home user.
Sometimes. The SR-71 has red paint on critical leading edge pieces to emit red and infrared radiation more effectively to keep the surfaces cooler in flight and awww I’m just fucking with you.
Nah, you need more than afterburners. The SR-71 had some very advanced nozzle inlets for its engines which allowed the plane to move and bounce the supersonic shockwave around in the engine inlet to generate extra compression and to keep the incoming air from just building up and flowing around the engine instead of through it. If you took a F22 and pushed it up to those speeds, it would flame out and stop working long before it got near the SR-71’s too speed.
Never left. I still have a shoe box full of floppies in my station wagon.
Shoot, with the right mods, you can do all that and replace all the piss with champagne.
Shoot, this has been on my brain a lot lately. I’ve been thinking about a modern one-time pad scheme that uses USB drives. Wanna send your friend 16GB of encrypted messages? Next time you hang out, give them a cheap USB drive. Or, possibly have your phones generate and share a one-time pad using NFC.
Unfortunately, I think phones and USB drives are too vulnerable, but it would be a fun little project to build.
Yeah. That’s an exercise in futility. You can’t get that data back under wraps. The only solution is to obfuscate your data with noise.
It’s already paid up. They’ve basically got a piggy bank with 10 bil in it.
My taxes already pay for the meteorology
Yeah, but it got privatized, so now you need to pay more money to a 3rd party to access the services you are already paying money to access.
This is what the Internet looked like in 2004. I love this site for both it’s stated purpose, and the nostalgia of the design. Click it if you dare.
I wish I was an engineer, but I have read a few mechanical engineering books with chapters on gears, and it really is a bottomless pit.
In the example, I recall seeing a method a ways back where 3 interlaced gears could rotate simultaneously. Two are linked traditionally, while one is a helical gear that slides though the teeth of the other two. It had a slick animation, wish I could find it.
Gears are really simple…
I’ve got some bad news for you…
Very cute. I’d love to hold my gecko like this, but she is a cranky old lady.
Ah, so you wouldn’t recommend that someone buy one of these things as a daily driver? You only have the truck for doing truck stuff, right?
Yeah, because you’re in a big truck, and not a sensibly sized car getting pinched between a brodozer and a concrete barrier everyday.
Everyone I know uses them pretty consistently to tow.
Is even softer data than what I posted, and softer than the old survey you were complaining about.
Avoid it like the plague. Once you admit you have Internet, Microsoft never forgets.
