243: "F***ing Boeing, Holy S***"

This week we discuss a three-fer of mini-topics from current events. First we take a look at Boeing's troubled Starliner test flight that's left a pair of astronauts stranded on the International Space Station. Next up, Goldman Sachs has issued a scathingly negative report about the validity and sustainability of the current AI bubble. And last, with Windows 10's end-of-support date looming, we dig into the upgrade requirements that are going to leave millions of PCs stranded, and maybe proclaim the year of the Linux desktop along the way (well, not really (OK, maybe kind of)).

NASA is now paying spacex to study a rescue mission. With results due to two weeks. I think confidence is low for starliner

They probably don’t know either.

The real bad thing about windows 11 is that they made it impossible to NOT use a offline account. One needs to create a online account.
Also the search in the start menu going into the internet is a security nightmare for companies, yes one can do stuff via Group Policies but only with Windows Server, not when you use Synology solutions, even though they have a an ADS server.

You can still go with local account when you have Pro edition of windows no?
