Comment Re:Likely not even using real floppy anymore (Score 1) 113

Yeah replace that 1998 computer with a newer one that supports hard drives since hard drives weren't available in 1998. What a bunch of non-sense, I bought my first hard drive in ~1985.
From TFS:

The agency noted that its system was installed in 1998, when floppies were still in common use and, er, "computers didn't have hard drives."

What an insightful breaking news article and especially article title! /s

I guess this saves it just a little bit although, the main part about mouse and keyboard shortcuts, not some much IMHO:

The company also added per-app language preferences for Android apps that you're running in ChromeOS, and it says it has made its offline text-to-speech voices more natural-sounding. As is Google's way, these updates will be rolling out over the next few days.

This makes troubleshooting awful. :|

yep dns over https is awful from a security standpoint. Although it has always been a good idea, requiring all user to use a proxy to connect to the web is even more relevant now, you can block dns over httpd there with mod_security rules or what not. All bets are off if users are able to use a vpn although so maybe force SOCK proxy usage as well with appropriate filters or only allow http.

For vpns, using vpns might actually be less secure and easier to track when you don't know what the vpn provider is doing. I use vpns all the time but only the ones I set up myself, both the vpn servers and client configurations.

DNS settings and routing settings are different things, my point was that there could be a way around it like changing the routing and redirect to your local DNS at your router like another user posted above but it is simpler to not use google's vpn or any other google software for that matter.

You didn't tell me if google's vpn is free, which I suspect it must be!
