Nobody controls how you use it. What is controlled is how you licence it if you publish it and what you must publish alongside if you publish it. That is fundamentally different. As long as you just use it in-house, no restrictions apply.
Also, are you saying that all software licenses are invalid because "no elected government voted on them"?
What they do is copyright infringement on a commercial scale and that is a pretty serious crime. When an individual downloads a song (non-commercial infringement), they get hit with the whole book and get stomped in the ground. But when a corporation does it, it seems what happens is... nothing?
There is an attack on masculinity, and men are choosing to hand in their "man card" and get "reassigned". For every woman that decides to get "reassigned" there are 9 men that do the same, so this is largely a matter of men allowing themselves to be castrated.
Ah, _that_ is your defect. And, not surprisingly, you have no understanding of what the facts actually imply. The simple reason female to male is much rarer is that it does not really work well surgically. This has absolutely nothing to do with "an attack on masculinity". If that one is real, it is happening somewhere else.
For a power cord, you need the transformer. The only other option (high-voltage capacitor and mains-voltage level circuitry) is even larger and produces a lot more heat. And no, you cannot re-purpose a ferrite bead for that, the geometry is wrong. You seem to be forgetting that you have 3 rather thick copper wires in there and one of them is at mains voltage.
You may not be, but I am sure. This does not make sense, both directly because of severe problems and limitations and indirectly because other options are better. Now, hiding such things in a power adapter, for example, that is something else. But plugs and cords? No. Pure amateur-level fantasy.
Nobody is spying via hacked power cords. It does not make sense technologically. Like at all.
Well, nobody is spying via hacked power cords alone. You could hide a MCU with wifi and a camera and/or mic in one easily enough,
Actually, that would be pretty hard. The problem is ironically that you need power and even a small PSU needs a transformer of a size that is not easily hidden because you cannot use mains power directly. Also, the PSU will be less efficient because of it small size and hence heat up and that is noticeable. And said PSU will create interference. And it will be easy to find by measuring capacitance between wires. And some other potential problems I am currently to lazy to examine in detail. Placing something like that in an USB cord is relatively easy, but in a power cord it is not.
No, sorry. The idea is a pure amateur-level fantasy. Any reasonably competent engineer will go for other options.
Virtualization will eventually get there, but it is not yet ready yet if you want gaming. I currently use a 2nd system and a KVM switch. That 2nd system is not a gaming system though.
Apparently, these US companies have nobody left that understands technology. Such an attack would be both ineffective and far, far more expensive than other possibilities. Requires some minimal actual knowledge of IT security to see that though, but all these people seem to have is irrational fear.
People with Stockholm Syndrome never realize they have it. You are a nice example. Also, what does Linux and Android have to do with Windows being bad? Nice fallacy you have there. Means you are not capable of rational argument in addition. Side note: Chrome is not an OS, but that idea is probably beyond your mental grasp.
Let enough time pass and let the current corrupt holders of power be forgotten, and the verdict will just be the second. Because it is the only thing that has a logical base.
So you are so incredibly insecure in your identity that you fear nothing more than a person that has made the decision to switch genders? You have a serious problem.
Seriously, I get that the AI hype is good for business, but this is just plain stupid. Either it does not work at all, or it does only work long after the fact when a lot of people have been hit, making it completely worthless.
Not yet. But in the 2nd half of this year I will have a new zen-2 system and nothing prevents me from dual-booting Win10 and Linux on it and check on the state of Linux gaming.
Sorry, I do not have any interest in crusades like that. Both Vulcan and mobile gaming will pretty much ensure Linux gaming in a few years. As soon as most engines support it there really is no good reason to not have a native Linux release anymore. Quite a few indie-games that already include Linux as a platform demonstrate that support is not an obstacle, and hence even a small percentage of additional sales will make this worthwhile. And unlike Windows, which seems to have started a downward spiral with Win10, Linux is not degrading, even with the occasional stupidity like systemd.

This panicked claim again. What is your problem? Male/Female is not nearly as definite as you insecure idiots claim.
And they will be even larger and produce more heat than a transformer. You really are clueless how things actually work.

Sounds very American to me.
Excellent example.

Oh? I use SSH for remote development and updates. Citrix is a symptom of an inferior system that is unsuitable for professional work.
And they were apparently compromised because somebody from outside got in using a weak password. Criminally negligent is what I call that.
They have nothing of value to steal. Must have been a practice attack or somebody that was forced to user their products and wants revenge for that.

This type of "AI" is really not more. Non-statistical approaches are different, but about as "intelligent".

Fascists have no decency and no compassion. You can see this nicely in this example.

So I guess I am not truly escaping from Microsoft.
They have done a great job of making it hard to abandon them.
Indeed. The only good job they ever did of anything.
