The main point is that the disk controller gets exponentially more complicated as capacity increases and that the problem isnt with space for the nand chips bit that the controller would be too power hungry or expensive to manufacture for disks bigger than around 4tb.

Relevant video about the problems with high capacity ssds.

Right. Just make a super super good compatibility layer so whatever you have next will be compatible and give up on Windows proper. They can call it Windows 360.

Honestly, it seems like it would be easier to contribute Dev time to WINE and just start all over with a new incompatible version of Windows.

Id say quite a few Twilight Zone episodes had endings that were better than the mystery. But of course, there were just as many episodes where the opposite was true.

My thought is that these people think that their smarter than everyone else therefore they are justified doing anything they do. On the other hand, anyone with a billion dollars got it by making a whole lot of other people poorer. And they ate neither actually geniuses nor benevolent in any other way.

The Phillip Morris CEO makes money by hooking people onto something that isn’t good for them. Tech CEOs are very seldom any different. Anyone who says otherwise usually has a financial interest in making you believe them.

In the song the Sk8r boy is the hero who triumphs in the end so i think it makes sense.

From a Star Trek perspective, when they have to eject the (warp) core they are also in for a pretty bad time.

You’re absolutely right. Everyone will be very worried and talk about the importance of security in the enterprise and yada yada yada until a cool new AI spreadsheet software comes out and everybody forgets to even check if their firewall is turned on.

But with that being said, if you have been looking for a good time to ask for cybersecuity funding at your org, see if you can’t lock down 5 years worth of budget while everyone is aware of the risk to their businesses.

Until the EU sues and forces them to have an option to actually remove it.

Cool. But no it doesn’t. Ive heard enough from him that I can imagine it just fine.

Don’t forget USB On the Go protocols! shudders

The real issue with QWACS is the idea that the EU government requires them to be added to web browsers running in the EU. It’s bad enough that France and Germany can issue those certificates but imagine Erdogan’s government pushing them out.

It’s not like any politician knows how the Internet works and that someone who knows better couldn’t rip those certificates out, but the tyranny of the default means that governments will have more control over EU citizens browsing. That’s not something likely to benefit anyone.

I like the point they make which is that every social media site with profile photos and DM’s will eventually turn into a dating site in some capacity. LinkedIn though shudder. I can’t imagine the corporate pickup lines in a place like that…

Obviously they didn’t listen to this guy.

They probably love their mother in law.

Not really sure what Firefox is up to a lot of times. But the Thunderbird’s team is really active and receptive right now. They are updating and revamping a ton lately.

Thunderbird integrates rss feeds on Windows.

It’s my understanding that I had over 80 million streams on Spotify this year,” Yankovic said in his video. “So, if I’m doing the math right that means I earned $12. Enough to get myself a nice sandwich at a restaurant.”

I contributed about 45 of those listens last year. I feel like I should have at least been offered a bite of the sandwich.

Comcast is currently working on that right now only it pees for you so you can stay and watch the commercials.
