"Orange man with small hands does another illegal thing, this might be the end"
It never is. Fuck you to every sensationalistic "news" outlet that continues to post the same artcle with differnt herbs and spices for the 10,000th time.
He's a douchebag. We all know already. Shut the fuck up about it unless he's in jail or dies. Then shut the fuck up about his dumbass kids. I don't want to start hearing about them for the next 40 years after I'm finally rid of their asshole father.
Usually they just over-pay for their computer because you can't really buy a system without Windows pre-installed (unless you build it).

I mean, my first reply to OP literally said the same thing, but sure, it's me moving the goal posts.
And I'm not talking about private as in "who owns and has 'rights' to the data" because "discord is s private company with TOS" (which offers zero protection, since scrapers don't care about TOS, even when the scraper is a major company - See StabilityAI, Google, et al).

Stories like this aren't doing much to change my mind.
You know, it only now occurs to me that - in 20 years of setting up fairly complicated spreadsheets (for everything from finance to asset management) - I've never used a macro.
I honestly don't know why you would, since per-cell functions update automatically. I certainly can't imagine why it would need to make system calls. Whole thing seems like a massive security issue with no benefit.
Didn't say it was the only way, just the best way. Most effective attacks are still against humans, not computers.
You almost just killed me right now. Literally couldn't breathe xD
Same for the people in court next to Farty McTrumpPants too, probably x'D
