You too can get the satisfaction of maiming or killing a spy embedded in your organization.

HELL YEAH DESHITTIFICATION!

For everything we do here, please be sure to be careful with what you edit, and restart your computer to lock things in.

If you don’t have access to the Group editor, (likely to happen if you’re on base windows) you can do this as well by opening your Registry Editor app, then inputting this after your ‘computer’ or whatever the initial segment is. (Mine is computer. If I just try and paste the below string it gets SO mad at me)

\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot

Navigating to your “turnoffwindowscopilot”, hit modify, and set the value data to 1.

If done correctly, it’ll look like this.

While we’re at it, you can also get rid of the integrated search, (or that thing where it searches the web when you search anything, whether or not you want it to) and such through regedit as well.

Integrated search will have you going to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer

Navigate to your “DisableSearchBoxSuggestions” bit, if you don’t see it, you can make it by right clicking and creating a new registry D-Word key of that exact name. Edit the key, set it to 1. It’ll look like this if you do it right!

image

To get rid of Windows Spotlight, (The thing where it pulls up ten billion pages on windows start page, shoving ads in your face and cluttering everything) we go to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DesktopSpotlight\Settings

And set “Enabled State” To 0. If you do it right, it’ll look like this!

image

Disabling edge on startup will also help a fair deal with processing speed and the like. This you can do in all sorts of ways, the easiest being turning it off entirely on startup through settings in the like.

If you want to kill it *entirely*, though? :)

In regedit, run along to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft

Navigate to your MicrosoftEdge key subcategory. If you don’t see it, you can make one! Note, this is a KEY, not a d-word. *inside* that subcategory, we want to either make or find the D-Word key of PreventLaunchEdge and set that to 1 in the same way as all the others.
It’ll look like this.

Aaaand while we’re here, I’d HIGHLY recommend shanking Killer Networking Services. It’s just bloatware. (Ostensibly it’s supposed to monitor your network bandwidth and even things out, but that really means it’s constantly monitoring and pinging things, which eats up the bandwidth you DO get, and also chunks your computer’s processing power.) Getting rid of it entirely is borderline impossible, since it’s set to redownload on regular updates and intel is very pushy with its updates.

This you can do by opening your Services.msc, which basically shows you all the background stuff that Windows does. Find Anything with Killer in the name, right click it, go to properties, and disable startup. It should look like this, if done successfully. It will probably reenable itself in time/in later updates for windows, but it’s a quick fix. I’d also check your TaskScheduler app to make sure that nothing’s scheduled to open up there, either.

image

If you CAN completely kill Killer services through uninstalling and the like, I would warn that at very least for my computer, the only ethernet/lan support applications that are available ARE Killer’s. When you download updates, you really do have to do it manually and ONLY download the ethernet services, or just be cool with not having Lan functionality.

One last thing, not a shit application but is a shit service. If your computer’s constantly overheating or just warm, you likely have Turboboost enabled. (Default setting that you can’t change) If you want to be able to turn it off and drop your temps by like 40 degrees, in Regedit go to

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\54533251-82be-4824-96c1-47b60b740d00\be337238-0d82-4146-a960-4f3749d470c7

(Note- This isn’t the string copy paste from the reddit thread, this is mine that does the same thing. If my string doesn’t work for you, check the reddit thread string. If that doesn’t work either, you can follow the path and find it pretty easily. Probably has like, one letter of difference somewhere. The bits all start the same, though, so it’s easy to find.)

and go to “attributes”. Set the value from 1 to 2, and now in your advanced Power Plan settings in control panel, you’ll be able to *see* turbo boost and turn it off.

It’ll look like this, and in power options, a successful disabling of boost should look like this.

Turning off quick startup’s also a good call, since that basically stops your restarts from actually shutting things down properly.

GOOD LUCK OUT THERE YALL. MAKE SURE TO CLEAN YOUR PC!

are you guys hearing about this dude working to developing a vaccine for cats that he’s hoping would like. theoretically double their lifespans?

turns out i wasn’t making that up, his name is Dr. Toru Miyazaki! he also wrote a book called “The Day Cats Live To Be Thirty”, so cats are kind of his thing.


apparently, cats’ kidneys tend to be the thing that takes them down, something about their bodies being unable to self-clean their kidneys, and the vaccine is supposed revitalize the body’s ability to do just that. It would be very VERY fucking cool to have cats suddenly reaching 30 years of age be the normal thing.


whoa wait i actually read the articles and it’s so much cooler than just that!!

dude cracked the case about WHY kidneys fail, across the board as far as i can tell. turns out there’s a specific molecule whose job it is to attach to waste and signal macrophages to come eat it. it remains inactive in cats for some reason, but the molecule is still there. basically what he’s done is found the switch to activate them. this will be profound not only for our domestic babies, but for big cats too - especially cheetahs!

although his research was focused on cats, it’s already being used to develop drugs for humans too!

on top of that, since these molecules are tags for waste, this could also dramatically lower the rate of fatty liver disease, liver cancer, urinary crystals, rheumatoid arthritis, and even some neurological cases! like, they’re hoping it may have an impact on parkinson’s and alzheimers, but it DOES have an impact on stroke recovery. like. holy shit.

furthermore, he’s insisting that the feline drug be affordable if and when it rolls out onto the market. he wants this to be something anyone can get for their cat!! idk how much sway he’ll have over the human drug, but hopefully enough that it, too, won’t be that expensive.

annnnnd in his research that he’s still doing for the human side of things, he’s found a potential link between this molecule and estrogen. in the 20,000 samples he’s tested, women between ages 10 and 29 had the highest amount of this molecule present in their blood (a higher amount means Something Fucky is going on, essentially. There’s a higher amount of waste the body is trying to clean out) but it drops down to be almost equal amongst men and women after menopause. it hasn’t been looked into yet, but fuck, just the fact it’s noted and known and probably WILL be looked into soon??? imagine if this is what leads to figuring out all the various ways the ovaries and uterus fucks with people and how to fix it. or even like, maybe there’s something about estrogen that makes it work better. who knows! but it’s rad the link is there to be researched :D

man just think, not only could our kitties start living longer, healthier lives, but just maybe dialysis will become as rare and obsolete as the iron lung is for people. what a badass Dr. Toru is!

“But I don’t want to turn people into dinosaurs. I wanna cure kittie kidneys!”

Hey y'all, so I’m in health insurance (I know), and we were talking about using social media to expand our clientele this morning (I KNOWWWWWW), and I will absolutely not be doing that over tumblr.com BUT! I DO think it makes sense to remind you all that:

1. OPEN ENROLLMENT BEGINS IN 2 WEEKS

2. OPEN ENROLLMENT WILL ONLY BE HALF AS LONG THIS YEAR

3. THE DEADLINE FOR OPEN ENROLLMENT IS DECEMBER 15TH THIS YEAR

4. INCREASED SCRUTINY MEANS IT WILL BE HARD TO SNEAK ON AFTER OE ENDS, FROM NOW ON

5. IF YOU MAKE UNDER $20,000 A YEAR IT IS WORTH APPLYING TO SEE IF YOU CAN GET MEDICAID!

and lastly:

6. NEVER EVER EVER EVER WORK WITH AN AGENT WHO WON’T SHOW YOU THEIR LICENSE!!!!*


*Jesus Christ the sheer amount of, not even fraud, but grift, completely legal ways to screw other people over, it makes my teeth hurt! Some names to watch out for (but not the only ones): Golden Rule, Manhattan Life, Philadelphia Life, First Health. Freedom life has 2 great plans and 1 Not Great plan, and if you’re looking at them, PLEASE call me directly and I’ll tell you which it is.


If you want a free consultation I am happy to do that but you are gonna have to schedule a phone call with me. DM’s and ask box are open

Also with the government shut-down and previous years’ shenanigans with the website, PLEASE don’t wait until the last minute to get started.

If you get insurance through your employer, double-check your employer’s open enrollment deadline! (Mine closes tomorrow (Oct 20, 2025))

If I get insurance through my employer, do I have to go through them in order to apply for ACA care, or can I apply by myself?? Is that the only way to get thru open enrollment?

Anyone can apply for an ACA plan here at the federal marketplace website! You do not need to go through an employer and you are always free to explore options. I always suggest checking each year as plan premiums change year to year and insurance to insurance.

Your options are by STATE! If you have moved states since you last checked, you have an entirely new pool of options.

Every insurance company offering ACA coverage has their plans separated by state and the risk pools are based ONLY in that state. That means there may be options that appeal to your state’s specific health trends.

Cost is always king, but keep in mind stability is a big indicator of a strong plan. That means middle of the road cost in general, but a long term successful plan means they have circled back to a large network that is underpinned by years of cost reduction measures (like process improvement, better targeted care for that state, yearly plan growth, etc).

The ACA is a long game for everyone involved, and this is the main reason folks working within the ACA machine are buckled down and closing care gaps where reach allows and bolstering processes in anticipation of a future rush of enrollees in future years. The name of the game is “resilience” and the ACA is ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS strongest when people use it!!!

The eligibility changes are tragic and there was a sickening shudder through the entire industry when they were introduced. We are losing the most vulnerable people the ACA exists to serve. The changes have been described as “the cruelty being the point”. It is horrendous. It is a ham fisted mockery of the monumental paradigm shift the ACA brought to the USA. The ACA is proof that healthcare belongs to everyone and healthcare becomes better when everyone uses it. Chronically ill, healthy, truly everyone’s participation is what rockets the ACA to greater reach to more people. Insurance companies are federally required to invest a minimum of 80% revenue back into the plan benefits or directly into the pockets of customers. The growth is the point!

Preventative care, cancer treatment, pregnancy, ART, diabetic management, asthma/COPD care, there is SO much these plans have enshrined to serve you. Please, explore your options!

You can find out your eligibility and options at healthcare.gov. (note: your state may have its own marketplace site. You will be redirected from healthcare.gov once you select your state)

I’m relieved that the war is over, and the crossing will open to travelers on October 14.

You can click this link and donate to a family whose campaign has stalled at €16,500 and they still need €3,500 to reach their goal and leave Gaza. They suffered a lot, let’s reward them.

Don’t tell yourself I don’t have money. If you only have fifty euros, donate 5 euros. It would be enough. This won’t affect you much, while on the other hand, it will save many lives from suffering. Come on, add your mark and donate, my dear. I love you very much. I’m relieved the killing stopped too lol 🤗🤗

I ask you, my love, to donate to this family because I saw their children dying of hunger and they were sitting all day on just a small piece of bread, so please donate, my brother, you will not lose anything but a little, please, please

Please Ibrahim is really carrying a big burden Ibrahim left his campaign and came to help this family he is very kind and generous please donate to him and do not ignore him he and those around him deserve life after what they have been through please donate

I’m really tired thinking yesterday you were only 2 hours old and today I’ve been awake for 10 hours and I see the rooster rabbit haha and I’m thinking about some posts that I have to write I’m really tired please share this post and donate

Only 3,000 euros to reach the goal if 100 people each donate 30 euros to be able to reach the goal as quickly as possible, please anyone who can donate any amount, do so as a favor and not as an order, please donate to save a beautiful family

Please do not stop supporting Ibrahim. We just need a little to reach the goal. Please donate anything if possible. One euro helps. Donate the least amount, please.

Please do so and donate.
