FWIW, you can still press Shift-F10 to open a command prompt, then run oobe\bypassnro. The computer will reboot / restart the setup process and this time there'll be a small link "I don't have internet" that'll allow you to set up a local account.
Just make very sure not to connect it to the internet (cable or Wi-Fi) before this point.

There have been rumours of newer versions of Windows 11 not allowing the bypass anymore, but I haven't personally seen any evidence of this so far.

Still a shit show though - trickery like this shouldn't be necessary.

Garmin Explore has a bit of a learning curve but offers a variety of very good maps and (once you've discovered where the web developers have hidden them) tons of nifty features. One of them is waypoints: you stick a flag somewhere and can give it a name, icon and colour. That sounds like the thing you're looking for.
The downside is that it's made for outdoor stuff so you get street names and some POIs, but no turn-by-turn navigation.

I use the website (https://explore.garmin.com/) to plan my tours and import/manage GPX files, and the Android app and an inReach 2 Mini satellite messenger while underway. The three sync seamlessly.

Since I have a paid subscription (required for satellite access) I can't tell you what (if anything) you get for free, but it should be relatively easy to find out if you think it might be what you're looking for.

For car navigation I used TomTom Go - it costs something but the quality of POIs and navigation is far superior to Google Maps in my experience. You can also add your own locations but have to do it on the phone by hand.
In my new car I use Google Maps because it came with the car and there's no real alternative at the moment. I do miss my TomTom app.

According to FlightStats and FlightRadar24, the original plane was a Boeing 777-206 from 2003, which has been replaced by a 777-300 from 2023. It's en route now over the Atlantic.

So an issue caused by Boeing's recent series of quality problems seems unlikely, unless there was a dodgy spare part involved.

This is actually a super smart move, from an evil genius point of view. The plaintiffs now have an interest in the company growing instead of shutting down.

Though I really hope some judge somewhere stops that deal.

What color is your function?

It's a ~~rant~~ opinion piece about the caveats of mixing async and sync functions, and divides code into 'red' (async) and 'blue' (sync) functions to explain the various problems associated with it.

I really wish there were any even remotely credible way to disagree with that statement.

I offer you a third option: at least one Lidl in Croatia uses blinking tags for stuff they really want you to look at.

Sometime soon we're gonna have to invent a spam filter for real life. Hey, maybe that's the use case that the Vision guys at Apple have been looking for?

i wasn't... until i read your suggestion!

Glad to be of service. 😁

If the cellar as your first project looks that cool, I can't wait to see the rest of the house. This is going to bring you decades of joy for sure.

Awesome work, and a fantastic idea in the first place.

Were you planning to bury a life-size skeleton wearing a construction worker's outfit nearby?

Either way, do post updates please!

Yeah but seriously, what kind of person gives a designer phone a unibrow anyway?

Seriously, health departments around the world should have offered a fourth Covid certificate during the pandemy - tested, vaccinated, recovered and "will irrevocably forego any right to treatment in a hospital in case of infection". That way all the tinfoil hats couldn't have spread their 'dictatorship' bullshit nearly as easily, because hey, all you have to do in order to be able to go to the pub is to absolve society of the risk of you catching an absolutely harmless and possibly even imaginary cold.
Let a few thousand of those fuckers die and at the same time keep the hospital beds free for those who need them through no fault of their own. Watch the survivors crap their pants and mumble something about science maybe not being so bad after all.

The problem is that some people consider stupidity to be a virtue. That's their right (sadly), but they shouldn't be able to make society suffer the consequences.

Thanks to a few centuries of upper nobility, we already know that marrying your cousin for several generations is not always a good idea. It'll be interesting to see what happens after a few iterations of AIs being trained on data mostly produced by other AIs (or variations of themselves). I suppose it largely depends on how well the training data can be curated.
