  • That’s true but I wouldn’t really classify this as evil.

    Serving videos isn’t easy or cheap. It’s hard and expensive.

    I obviously use an adblocker everywhere and so should you.

    But saying that Google or anyone else is doing anything wrong by blocking adblockers is ridiculous. When they finally succeed, I will just accept that I finally lost after many many years. My usage of YouTube will likely go down substantially as well. Crying about it after you have used their service for free for YEARS, really makes no sense.


  • Sure, they want you to use Azure AD (now called Entra ID) or maybe Entra Domain services. But they are absolutely not stopping anyone from hosting their own AD like normal. There even came a few nice improvements to AD in Windows server 2025 so it’s actively being developed. Server 2025 is being supported until 2034. So AD will be supported until AT LEAST 2034 but very very likely much longer.

    Nowadays it’s very common to have a hybrid setup with AD and Entra ID where users and devices sync to Entra ID from AD. Many features are available in AD and/or Entra ID (or any of the other related cloud services like Intune). For example: you can choose if you want your bitlocker keys backed up to Entra or AD.

    AD will likely stay relevant for many decades to come. Especially for larger companies with special requirements.











  • Has anyone claimed that the protests were entirely peaceful? Of course some turn violent when you roll in with your army and riot police gun blazing.

    And thanks for confirming that it wasn’t a tank.

    There really are no excuses for the killing of dozens if not hundreds of civilians and protestors.

    And the protests were entirely peaceful to begin with but of course China couldn’t let that continue.

    The censorship of the event also speaks a great deal about who’s fault it is.
