    WCG?

    WCG for me has been meh for a long time but have been running on many machines this week because tasks are available. After 4 days, zero credits. Makes me sad, I believe in the project but getting notices and emails that they miss me and the cost of crunching, is backing me off again.

    Reporting a phishing email to google?

    Whack-A-Mole is a reality but not a fix. I have a Spectrum web mail and Gmail and both have the issue.

    Microsoft is grouping its efforts to fix Windows internally under the K2 project

    By the time they release this new bucket of slop, my 5950x will be 9-10 years old and ram will still be unattainable. The only time MS gets excited about new features is when someone over there comes up with a better way to hoard and sell your data.

    Laptop Recommendation requested

    I got an 14” IdeaPad a year and a half ago and it’s solid. Never gets hot running Win11 or Linux. The only time the fan runs is if I’m in the bios for more than 5 seconds. lol. Good battery life too.
