I never understood the inability to come up with a true random number generator. Tune your old school TV to channel 3. It's static. Background radiation from the big bang. Use THAT. (?)
That threw me for second [decades]. It's been decades for me too - gave up on Microsoft roughly in 2000 w/ the games they were playing. It's been two decades and my business system(s) run more reliably and it's been a whole lot cheaper not paying Microsoft "licensing". They are a multi-billion dollar joke of a company.
I gave up on tape decades ago. Too many problems. It's slow AF compared to a live backup for restoring. That's if you CAN restore. Worst case scenario is you'll have to restore w/ a different tape drive -- and I've seen this fail right there. The original drive became out of alignment, but could still read/write it's own tapes. Nothing else would read them. I consider this tech useless now because of this.
I backup like this:
Linux server ---> rsync offsite
rsync offsite --- differential rsync of this live set
(ie: no direct access to differential backup set)
I do the same thing onsite, but will assume entire network is compromised and will rely on offsite for a good set of data
This is just not a good idea on so many different levels.
Why yes. YES IT DOES.
I think they already tried removing the Start menu right before they removed the "Start" button and made it the Windows logo. The aborted and never released Windows 9
Finally - can we talk about John Deere...
Who planted the tree? Sue them too.
Anything But Microsoft - fuck them.
And what if I have a piece of software, maybe I wrote it, that won't work with something different. It's not your PC Microsoft. Fuck off.
This is the exact reason why I like my Mac and love my Linux. My computer. My choice.
Apple fan boy here -- didn't Apple try this w/ the T2 chip.
And how long did it take to hack that (it's been done).
This security chip will be easily cracked in 3
You forgot The Associated Press.
Now to answer your question [sic] - I had a heated debate w/ my dead set Republican mom Trumper. I forget what specific issue / point she and/or I were trying to make, but the point is I asked her to show me just ONE (1) news example of Trumpy doing something the right thing on the issue. Her answer?
http://whitehouse.gov/ - so there's your answer.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha
That should be far enough -- but you'll still be able to hear the lies.
