In the short-term (0-6mo, maybe less): probably nothing really changes. It's not super likely that anyone would be holding on to a massive flaw, waiting for EOL. Nothing stops Microsoft from patching after EOL for something major, they've done it before.

Medium-term (maybe up to a year or two): you're looking at real potential to get infected with --who-knows-what--. Hard to say how long it would take or how widespread it would be.

Longer term: massive, massive security hole. Microsoft has probably even patched a major thing or two by now (despite EOL), but there will always be more

These are like side dishes or snacks to me. I just don't feel sated.

Funny, I'm the opposite - I get stuffed from a breakfast of bacon, eggs, and toast/biscuit/hashbrowns, whereas I don't tend to eat nearly as much at other meals.

I also love breakfast foods. Eggs are life.

It's the only thing stopping the people in charge of our society from mandating 16-hour days

What a horrible title 🀒

Feels like the end times. I have a couple friends that are working on plans to flee the country because they're trans. My partner and I were going to be looking at buying a house this year, but at this point, I'm worried that we're better off joining them, instead...

...did billions disappear, or are they just paying a lot of money to own an entire country? Short-term cost for long-term gain.

Bringing you, maybe. I'm out ✌️ I'm not giving into the inevitable pre-planned reduction from 80/90 to 70/80, either.

Just to be totally clear, it was not real when I commented this πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

You need to actually read the links you're providing.

The buyer's remorse one specifically refers to high-pressure sales such as door-to-door salesmen or a temporary business location (meeting a salesman in a hotel), or some subscriptions or delayed services. Nothing that would apply to buying a car without a really odd scenario.

And you can't really compare it to "this scenario" because (most?) civilized countries don't condone the buying and selling of people.

I was referring to the "sign the title over then regret it" scenario at the top of this thread.

You're more than welcome to provide a link the law - as far as I can find, there is no mandatory cooling period for purchasing a car - or anything else you purchase in-person (many more exceptions for online) - unless there are issues. This appears to be true in both the EU as a whole and the US, though I haven't looked into individual EU countries.

Also, literally none of this applies to a sale between two private individuals. None of this would ever apply unless you buy from a retailer, which is not the scenario here as I understand it πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
