Let us not forget that there is not a single employer on the planet who would willingly hire and pay someone more for their time than that person’s time is worth. Each employee of a company is making that company money. They deserve comfort because they are the company.

Something that people are missing with the whole physical media situation is that it being physical does not preclude it from internet connected DRM, server requirements, etc. It just so happens that around the turn of this century DVDs came along and lacked sophisticated/connected DRM implementations, but it is not inherent to their physical nature. Physical media also decays. DVDs generally have around 20-25 years before bitrot starts to set in. I love the concept, but you’re better served by a hard drive than a DVD.

Ah, but did they back in 2007?!? 😂 (it’s a meme, don’t think too hard about it.)

Idk where you live, but in the rust belt anything past 15 years old is basically dead due to significant corrison. I wish there were more to be done about it because I love wrenching on old Miatas, but they just continue to salt the roads even months before the first snowflakes (at least, where I live) and it eats vehicles to the point of safety issues and frame breakages over time. (My first car, a 1999 Suzuki esteem, actually had the frame snap while I was driving due to this. Body corrison was minimal, but the frame and undercarriage had completely given out).

I think they’ve been doing HUDs in vehicles since the late 80s? They’re not very common though since they generally have reliablity issues (this is a lease).

Technically a windscreen, but we’re gonna give it a pass for the memery, right? 👉👈

I’ve actually had this occur before to a machine I specifically disabled the tpm on so that it wouldn’t happen (it was an account less frozen kiosk). I was fuming the entire time I spent rebuilding it.
