The “HP Tuned“ version of Windows may be the issue. Would expect that to have a ton of bloatware.

Re:Amazon Ring is hiring editors to push local crime news to its users

That paranoia dies down quickly once you realize how boring your neighborhood is. At least it did for me. In fact, I recently had an item stolen, and didn't even know it until my neighbor told me about a strange man in her backyard (I had missed the notification entirely).
I do agree with the article, however. It makes sense that a constant drip-feed of local crime news can have a detrimental effect on perceived security and danger.

Re:Why I Left the .NET Framework (2013)

Outdated. Microsoft has clearly embraced open source, and is facilitating cross-platform .NET development (OmniSharp, ASP.NET 5). Async is a thing. SQL Server is not a con, switch to something else. Mono is reason to leave mono, not .NET.

> Additionally, wear-out isn’t an issue with SSDs. Those two node uplifts in the manufacturing process add literally years to the device life, and the economics of 3D NAND allow for extra over-provisioning, making the write life of the drive well beyond its time in a data center. This is especially true for archived storage, where writing is at a much lower rate.

Yes. Sony can do what they want within their own walled garden.
Now whether or not such a thing would be feasible ... is another story.
