That isn't the use case of this service though... This is providing a Google-provided MDM-type device management essentailly for Windows 10 corporate laptops similar to what you can already do with Android and iPhone. I have more one-off Oscilliscopes, PXE chassis, LabView boxes etc. in my environment than I'd care to admit running out-of-date embedded Windows OSes--none of these have a web browser installed or are even connected to a network where they could go out and access Google. They either have the network port taped over or have 10 layers of compensating controls between them and any network that might want to do them harm. As for Windows 7, it went EOL as-of January 14, 2020 (unless you pay a hefty support contract to MS for extended support). I see absolutely no reason for Google to market a mobile device security solution to companies who choose to completely ignore security by running an unsupported OS in a mobile device environment such as an end-user laptop where the threat vectors are already just about the most dangerous they could be (thivery, sketchy wifi networks, sketchy USB devices, liquid nitrogen attacks on RAM holding sensitive encryption keys once the adversary has physical posession of your booted-up but sleeping device, Thunderbolt USB-C port DMA vulnerabilities, etc.)

I don't get this article. They're not even fuzzing the interpreters, but rather the STANDARD LIBRARIES. How is this remotely interesting? Passing unsanitized input to arbitrary standard library functions, what could go wrong?? *facepalm*

That's nonsense, you can't fit a milligram of anything onto a blotter square.

Why so few ONUs? I worked for an ISP in a third world country for a while, and we used Zhone equipment, which I would never recommend. Even so, it supported up to 64 ONU per fiber.

I love how it's done in Ruby. It's compact and yet readable, unlike certain other older languages known to include many paradigms, including OO and Functional.

If you avoid static_cast/traditional (C_casts *), and use -Wall -Werror, then C++ is really quite a lot safer.

It's my most familiar language, back from when I was learning it on the schoolbus by reading K&R. I would still never choose C over a carefully-selected subset of C++ for a new project. There is just no advantage to keeping things more primitive except when it comes to very specific environments, like traditional Unix kernels. I think templates are very useful in limited doses and far superior than macros, inheritance is somewhat useful to almost any kind of CS problem, and the STL itself is a huge boon to software reliability and interoperability.

Of course, I also have no qualms with Java, so....

Note 2 owner here; I would welcome this upgrade because my WiFi/Bluetooth module is now dead and I doubt I'm capable of reflowing the solder which is likely the reason for failure.

i.e. any modern Unix, Mac OS X, Windows, etc.

I am quite curious if Sony is now the leading manufacturer of consumer electronics powered by FreeBSD. The only other manufacturer that I think may be in the running would be Panasonic, with FreeBSD as the basis for their televisions.

So this is basically just theft. The police are just like the Crips and Bloods, except they're taxpayer funded.

Great job electing a bunch of right-wing assholes yet again, England.

Greetings OP, I have one of these rigs: Actiontec My Wireless TV WiFi / HDMI Multi-Room Wireless HD Video Kit http://www.amazon.com/exec/obi... I use it to sling HD video, USB and IR from my downstairs to upstairs, and it works great! There is a small amount of latency but it's not at all unusable. Sounds like it would do exactly what you want! I'm very happy with mine--normally I'm a bit skeezed out by Actiontec products (FiOS wireless router ugh) but this one has been completely solid. Good luck! Regards- pdscomp

The data's only "untrustworthy" if you're a fucking dipshit anti-science luddite like mister Maynard here.

This is the kind of guy who puts "some college" on job applications because he once worked at one.
