i have no loving idea how much p50s cost, but these rogs, to my eyeball (havent bothered to check the specs) looks like start from 1.3 grand for the shittiest config (8 gb ram and 128gb ssd, or something like that)

they probably were bought from some wholesaler or some other sady poo poo because our employer is russian and cheap af.

cheap af as in i had to make a two week fight about buying myself a visual studio seat after everything was cleared by my boss because they had some ~reasons~ prohibiting purchase from the official microsoft latvia store. they ended up ignoring everything i said, bought an olp nl gov licence because it was like 80 dollars cheaper.

naturally, since this isn't russia and that was a legit microsoft reseller, they followed through with checks to see why are we ordering a governmental licence for vs, so i had the delight of sticking it in over skype to our "procurement person" on behalf of my boss while she agreed that the same store gives us a regular commercial licence, which ended up costing 50 dollars more than what was available at the microsoft store

does anyone know why font driver host is not under nt_authority, and why is it fancying 7% of my cpu atm?

fonts used to be in the kernel and they finally got around to moving them out to user mode for security reasons. the font host should be running as its own user mode font user to keep it separate from everything. idk why its using cpu.

it was one of the major updates iirc but idk which one. its possible its not entirely migrated out of the kernel tho

"Recently, I actually did switch to an Android phone," he said, speaking on Fox News Sunday.
Microsoft's own Windows-powered phones have failed to make a significant impact on the smartphone market, which is dominated by devices running Google's Android operating system.
However, Mr Gates said he had installed lots of Microsoft apps on his phone.
When asked whether he also had an iPhone, perhaps as a secondary device, he replied: "No, no iPhone."
He did not reveal which particular smartphone he currently uses.
