My machine is 7 years old and runs fine on Windows 11. I don’t understand all these posts about Windows 11 not being supported. TPMs have been a thing for 10+ years now.

Microsoft will extend support once the deadline is near, for enterprise customers.

Are you referring to the use of the average rather than the mean amount saved? The article is only like 4 paragraphs and I don’t think there was anything to miss. That said I also have a 401k tracker through my investments and it shows most individuals in that age group have around 400-500k.

So it’s better to put more lives in danger so that there can be someone to blame?

Your guess is a bit off, average 401k for a 60 year old is north of 400k.

Other countries absolutely do require people to work to support themselves. The US is certainly not unique in this regard. Some countries have universal income or provide care for the elderly but to think it’s the norm is the Lemmy collective putting a bag over their heads.

Do you tag all communities “linux”?

Blaming anyone but yourself is the new hotness around here it seems. Not planning for the future is somehow now your fault but the fault of the country? Sounds a bit entitled to me

Did you save at least 20-30% of your income in tax advantaged accounts?

Because elections are coming up, why else?

True companies do not pay per packet but they do pay for the bandwidth. The more users that use more bandwidth consistently means the ISP needs to invest more money on throughput/links. If you have 100 users and they use 1 mbps on average you can get away with a 100mpbs link. If you have 5 users using 50mpbs on average now you need a gig link. So technically it’s not free but yeah bandwidth caps suck big time. My suggestion would be to pick a place to live near a city with a municipal broadband option.

Average total comp for a software engineer at Google. The principals can make close to a million a year total comp

Would you walk out of your 250,000/year software engineer gig over this? Most people won’t and don’t. Go to work, get paid, and live your life how you want.

Also substance abuse or mental disabilities… or both.

Well it was partially out of choice and partially the stage of my life. I was in my 20s and working in fast food or between construction jobs. My career didn’t really start until my late 20s/early 30s. I guess I didn’t really consider buying as an option until later in life and my income in my earlier working years was inconsistent and a bit too low for my lifestyle.

How do you rent if there are no landlords? Someone has to own the property and rent it out, aka a landlord.

This post is insane. Sometimes I feel like Lemmy is an echo chamber for the maniacal. I rented for nearly 10 years of my life because I didn’t want to own a place and be tied down. Not everyone wants to be a homeowner. Once I got to the point that I wanted a home I bought one… And guess what, I save money every month on my mortgage versus renting. Renting is a convenience, home ownership is not dead… People buy up the houses near me faster than they can build them.

To be clear I never said that I didn’t care about an individual’s safety, you inferred that somehow from my post and quite frankly are quite disrespectful. I simply stated that autonomous vehicles are here to stay and that the technology will improve more with time.

The legal implications of self driving cars are still being determined and as this is literally one of the first approved technologies available. Tesla doesn’t count as it’s not a SAE level 3 autonomous driving vehicle. There are some references in the liability section of the wiki.

Honestly I’m sure there will be a lot of unfortunate mistakes until computers and self driving systems can be relied upon. However there needs to be an entry point for manufacturers and this is it. Technology will get better over time, it always has. Eventually self driving autos will be the norm.

Who said there was no safety authority involved? I thought it was part of the 4 level system the government decided on for assisted driving.
