ESU is a paid service for enterprise. They didn’t even offer ESU for windows 7 home at all for any price.

Windows 7 pro ESU per device cost $50 for 1 year, $100 for the next year, $200 for the final year.

Windows 7 enterprise was per device 1 year $25, second year $50, and 3rd year $100.

Micro$oft is not going to give win10 ESU away for free and they probably won’t supported home edition.

You can however bypass the win11 hardware checks to upgrade unsupported devices.


Yea. And most of the data is already cloud backed up anyway. Which means you can restore it. Also means it’s not really your data either and someone else has access to do what they want with it.

If you’re worried about losing access cuz you lost your 2 factor FIDO2 key or One Time Password or whatever you can print off “backup codes” and put them in your lock box.

But if you don’t backpack your data locally then whomever you delegated backups to can cut you off at any time for any reason.

Google shut off access to this parents account after he took a photo of his child’s genitals for teledoc and sent it to his wife over Google chat: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/21/technology/google-surveillance-toddler-photo.html


I would love to know how to be a perfect parent.

If you have some amazing advice I’m sure we’re all ears here.


Who’s educating the parents on what’s going on in the games? The casinos? The slot machines? The sports betting apps?

Where do the average learn about these things?

All well and good if you are fairly well educated and know about some of the psychology going on. But damn I do not have any hope for the next generation raised on tick tocks as the GOP dismantle public education.

It’s going to quickly get like Idiocracy in here all the while bystanders will say, but the parents working two minimum wage jobs to put food on the table and a roof over their head should have taken responsibility for their child!

People fall through the cracks and we all as society benefit when we are responsible enough to try to make sure the cracks can’t just swallow you whole.

Shit, I’ve got 3 university degrees and top certifications for my specify IT field and wouldn’t know much about this topic if it weren’t for Sout Park Freemium Isn’t Free.

We can’t depend on being educated or involved with children to protect them from 24/7 365 always online dopamine addiction to compulsion loops.


We’re you refered to physical therapy after breaking your foot? Or are you able to see if insurance will pay because your mobility has been reduced?

I had several injuries in the military that left me unable to stand, walk, drive a car, or balance for very long. With the help of physical therapy I was eventually able to walk properly, then after some time I was able to take a ride to work a job where I was sometimes sitting but often standing. Eventually I was able to work and exercise enough that I got all my balance and mobility back.

Having public transit helped me when I still didn’t have enough fine motor control to operate a pedal and brake.

Not everyone is on the same journey, but please see if you can access physical therapy. Please advocate for not just healing but making yourself whole.


The Register has broken some good stories.

Also an excuse to read Simon Travaglia’s BOFH https://www.theregister.com/offbeat/bofh/
