Nope. Not practical fusion. Still research phase. Obviously, they are lying about that.

No, it just sounds like you are clueless.

The "shame on you" phase is long, long over for Microsoft. Now it is "shame on me for using that crap"...

Practical fusion is still half a century or more removed. The actual scientists working on it make no other claims. It is just the deranged press that does.

Naa, does not matter. With 100 qbits you can do less than a 40 year old pocket calculator with a slow 4bit CPU.

That would be a criminal act.

Indeed. Very much so.

Yes. To all of that. But people are lazy and most people are not IT security experts and usually not even IT experts. They do not realize what risks they are exposing themselves to.

I mean it is a TV. It should decidedly not be within my main security perimeter and it should decidedly not have my passwords.

Contraception and the power of the religious nuts to deny people sex education getting smaller.

You are probably thinking of the UK. That is not Europe anymore and never really was.

This is what MS DOS is on a 386.

Sounds good, but greed, arrogance and stupidity have made that pretty much impossible by now. Unless you _want_ to completely destroy the US economy?

Here is a real security issue: US companies offshoring writing of critical software to China, India, Pakistan, etc.

I still remember a phone conference a few years back that I had with a customer and their US supplier (a major name in the IT area) over the encryption algorithms used in a security critical device mty customer wanted to buy. The lead engineer and his team were dialed in from Shanghai.

If you do crap like that, you really do not need to worry about buying from Chinese manufacturers. You get the same backdoors, the same quality, just much cheaper.

That has been over for quite a while. You seem to have been deep asleep while the world changed. Europe still has some things they might want to copy, but anything the US can make, China can make as well these days. And they sometimes can make it better.

No, I am not a fan of China. But underestimating an opponent is a really, really stupid mistake.
