There are several reserved names in Windows. This is for backwards compatibility with mostly DOS programs. On your desktop, try and create a folder named “con”, and Windows should flat-out refuse. (Same thing for “prn”, “aux” and “nul”)

I’d imagine a berry of some sort. There could be a berry we still eat that pre-humans also ate. Wouldn’t surprise me.

Keep in mind both options require enabling remote control from Windows settings. It’s off by default if I recall right.

If you have another windows pc, you can use the built-in remote desktop. Or, from Linux you can install a Microsoft rdp compatible client like remmina. (Edit: If using Windows Pro on the target machine, for either of these options)

Yay… Capitalism…

Compounded by sites like RSSing that frame or scrape other websites. Another hit, but literally the same thing verbatim as another.

My guess is a larva of Chrysodeixis argentifera. Only a guess though.

I don’t personally know of any but in a similar vein there are some stone monuments intended to convey information after an apocalypse like the Georgia Guidestones or the nuclear waste site warning stones.

Yeah, I guess. It seems wasteful to need 8GB just to run an OS and browser especially after Microsoft was pushing server core specifically to go the opposite route with resource utilization on servers.

They are necessitating 8GB of RAM. for what?! Like, it would be a struggle to find a machine with less than 8GB still being sold new, sure, but why does the OS need that RAM?
