Is that supposed to be Herobrine or something?

But the real question is... How do they taste?

This truck and 95% of others like it are tax loophole trucks: https://www.inc.com/dan-furman/the-suv-tax-deduction-loopholeis-alive-well-but-its-not-what-you-think-it-is.html

In fact, if you Google "tax loophole truck," the first result I get is a dealership.

Hopefully you don't care, but in case you do I didn't downvote you. I was not offended, but I am grateful I had an opportunity to share some of the unique insights I've experienced.

I never said it was a good thing. I was just commenting on the aggressive nature of Brazil LEO. Microsoft in particular bends over backwards for any gov't or LEO. I can only assume the Feds got substantial leverage over them, perhaps by manipulating the antitrust cases. Same tactics they use on the smaller guys works on the big corps too I guess. Top customer of MS legal compliance is by far the US Fed with 5000-7000 blanket surveillance of Americans presumably part of PRISM. Second highest is definitely Brazil, and they are very demanding and impatient.

Back in 2016, MS was advertising Customer Lockbox as an answer to gov't intrusion into customer privacy. It sounded perfect. Customer gets encryption keys so MS cannot comply with lawful interception requests. I think Apple does this, and it works well for them and their customers. However today I cannot tell if MS lied, dismantled this aspect of this feature, or buried it such that no one uses this ability.

While we're talking about MS playing snitch, watch out for Windows 11 and the TPM hardware requirement. Sure this might be a useful tool to fight ransomware scammers, but it definitely can also be used to fingerprint a PC and make everything potentially traceable. Look up machine identification code aka yellow dots for a nifty parallel in the printer world (pun intended).

I generally agree, but I feel like Windows 8.1 was a vast improvement on 8. It was really more like Windows 9 with a Windows 8 theme.

Brazil does not fuck around. They famously jailed several Microsoft execs when they didn't hand over some emails a few years ago.

Edit: Skype data not emails and one exec

I'm convinced they're trying to crack fusion and the coffee beans are just the results of their failures..

You just sold me on getting this phone. I got a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra now that I've regretted since Day One. First and definitely last Samsung phone forever.
