My attention span is shot from years of social media abuse, so I didn't read the article.

Could someone post a 9 second video of them summarising it for me?

Hope away. I'm sure plenty haven't got a clue.

Maybe I misread TFA but where does it mention mail agents automatically executing the macros? I assume the mails were hand crafted, to encourage the recipients to open the attachment, and that the mail agents were irrelevant?

We're just here so we can shout 'get off my lawn' every now and then.

I'm off to find a blanket for my knees.

Yep. I agree.

FTA,

"Apple declined to comment on why it didn’t follow its usual procedure."

Someone did ask, Apple didn't say anything.

You're working at the wrong end of the scale. Because you have X guns, you think X+1 is the best answer. My point is you should have far fewer guns, reducing the chances of you being trapped in a building with a madman who's armed in the first place.

You work on the assumption that it's inevitable that you'll be in a building with an armed idiot, but it's only inevitable if you live by your own solution.

No, it's not a solution, it's a partial mitigation at absolute best.

I've seen this argument before, and it's not true. The effort level for different types of things used to kill people vary, both in up-front effort, and effort of application.

Being able to walk into a store and buy a gun does not mean you have the skill, resources or ability to make and deploy a bomb. Yes, some killers can make bombs, but far more can simply buy a gun.

So, 'banning guns won't help they'll use bombs' is a weak argument.

More guns is not a solution to gun violence.

Especially when the perpetrators are already willing to die.

Upgraded all the Windows machines I have to Win 10. Every app I use worked without issue, no problems with games, and Cygwin still works fine.

It is undeniably harder to get to 'the guts' than it was with Win 7 (I skipped 8), but I've found that Windows 7 and 10 have stabilised to the point where I rarely need to get to the guts any more. Some parts of Win 10 still feel split-personality, there are two kinds of dialogs for a lot of stuff, the new Win 10 look (or the Win 8/8.1 look) and the old Win 7 look, but for the most part it's tolerable.

Hardware support, multiple monitors, etc. much more stable under 10 than it was under 7.

Performance under 10 is better than it was under 7.

I primarily use the machines for Lightroom / PS / Video editing, web based stuff and office document stuff.

If you hate Windows, you'll hate Windows 10 as much as you hated Windows 7 / 8 / 8.1. However, if you're comfortable with Windows, or you use a range of different OSes and accept there's no perfect solution, then Windows 10 is better than the previous versions of Windows, IMO.

Flagged.

What you need to do is build up a pattern of sometimes taking it and sometimes not taking it, so that it's not possible to determine from the location of your phone whether you're doing nefarious stuff. It's like someone earlier said about encryption, you need to use it for everything you do, mundane or not, for it to be effective, otherwise using it becomes a flag in its own right.

The guy selling these spaces has played far too much Fallout - the people buying them haven't played anywhere near enough.

Any OS I built would include AIX's LVM. Rock solid, conceptually simple for the most part, totally embedded into the storage management, and just works.
