Seems like that’s true. My bad

Well that’s encouraging. Thank all the gods I only own dumb TVs

Man, try teaching a freshman comp course in college.

That is distressing.

Writer clearly has never hung out in actual VR

Judging from recent forum posts, Citrix still installs a hidden server running with privileged access as part of their client software. It's almost impossible for normal users to remove it.

Wasn't this the same behavior that got Zoom blocked briefly on macOS a few years ago? https://www.macobserver.com/news/apple-update-remove-zoom/

It'll definitely lead to a few never-imagined-by-humans campaigns.

Now I want to plug in the rules to ChatGPT and let it run a session, just for fun.

Would router-blocking the IP addresses provide some protection?

I haven’t let Citrix maleare onto any device I own in decades, since finding that it wasn’t possible to remove their server from a Mac by normal means (it required using terminal to shut down and remove each process individually). I honestly wasn’t aware that anyone outside a particular obscure state agency in Kentucky still uses them.

This deliberate gutting of schools, and by extension students’ and society’s futures, makes me want to scream. I give up. The US had a good run.

I’d feel worse if they didn’t so richly deserve it.
