Yes, you can remove and interact with your TPM chip. I don’t know why you’re coming in so hot on this person, your last name Ballmer or something?

You might be surprised! This type of change is usually automated and centralized, so an administrator shouldn’t ever have to even touch any of those Chromebooks. Might be worth having a chat with your school administrators.

While they would no longer be competing in the US market, any ‘competitor’ would have to do the work of gaining billions of customers in other countries, that are already entrenched into Tik Tok user space. I think that worry is kinda moot if you’re TT leadership.

Well for one, because if they don’t then they will get precisely 0 money. If it is indeed about the money then we would absolutely expect them to sell no? Otherwise… There’s no money

Hell yeah, thanks!

Is Roller Mobster from a game?? I love this track, if someone put CB in their game I gotta try it

Whoever down voted you is coping, this is easily seen all over their products. RCS, headphone ports, charging ports, not allowing you to side load apps, the walled garden, yadda yadda. Apple makes good (really expensive) hardware but the rest is marketing.

I do just need to point out that the Doomsday Clock is run by a media organization with no ties to any government. There’s no hard facts about what the number represents, it’s just a small group of academics who decide how close we are to apocalypse off vibes. While I think the problems they point out are valid concerns you have to remember that their main thing is to drive clicks. Of course this is easier if you’re constantly scared.

I know it seems like we’re in the worst time possible, but crime and violence is as low as it’s ever been and the standard of living for human life in general is also as high as it’s ever been. I’d echo the other commenters, sounds like it’s time for a social media detox.

This is not in any way limited to left wing social media lol… Donald Trump is the master of name-calling and Truth Social and the like is littered with his euphemisms. Pay more attention.

People are down voting you because you’re routinely misrepresenting or misunderstanding them all over this thread. Since your comments are perfectly clear otherwise this is leading other commenters to believe you’re acting in bad or trolling.

Actually this very comment of yours that I’m responding to is a pretty good example of that.
