What the actual fuck?! If it is sensitive information, then why is it unencrypted?

There's a difference between "Spy on South Moscow at 3pm" and "Our King is in the Epstein Files."

Right before you shake on a deal, start to walk away unless they remove the fee.

TFA says Intelsat39, launched in 2019, is a "typical example." And I think they mean a typical example of a satellite "launched years ago without advanced onboard computers or encryption capabilities."

No crypto in 2019? I know these things are planned and designed many years in advance, so they might contain dated components, but even so... wow.

I'm not seeing a paywall on the site. uBlock Origin must be doing something.

The UHF app on our Apple TVs & iOS devices and the UHF Server in Docker to act as a PVR gives us everything for a few $ a month paid in crypto.
We haven't had cable since ~1999-2000. Downloading and the *arrs have kept us happy, but the better half wanted to check out some live sports. So IPTV it was.

One of our guys said something to the effect of "Copilot is Corporate Chat. It knows all the useless filler of management-speak, but lacks the competence of the people in the trenches.

Ouch.

Itâ(TM)s finally the year of Linux on the desktop. And it will be locked down so tight that it can only install software that someone else thinks users should be allowed to. At least Microsoft allows users to make choices about what software they run. Maybe this will at least convince more people to try Ubuntu.

I've used Claude at home for ages. Work was wanting to get some AI stuff for us and the only 'blessed' one is CoPilot. Everything else it blocked. All senior management seems to know about AI is "Hurrr... Copilot and ChatGPT."

Out team of ~8 (pentestesting & VA) were unanimous about Copilot being crap and Claude being the top dog. So some higher ups OK'd a Claude Teams package for work. To bypass the CorpSec tards, we use it from our lab environment that has its own unmonitored link and IP range.

Anthropic/Claude is just so far ahead of OpenAI/ChatGPT and MS/Copilot it's not funny.

Umm, they "need" the ignorant poor to provide legitmacy for themselves. I can see a Govt. trying to implement some baseline nutritional suplement for the teeming masses. Maybe they will call it somthing cool...like Soylent...

You are correct. have always had turn on and turn off, but that was just the switch in a device. If I understand the summary...F the VergePayWall. This allows you to add a switch with user defineable actions, that can include multiple actions or devices.
A single local button to turn on my PC/Printer/Speakers versus voice or app.

his new inflatable Fed Reserve pal, I'll soon join the club. I'm investing in wheelbarrows.

For good or bad, they manufacture the most stuff. Sticking only with alternatives would limit our choice and the average prices would be higher. We'd have to shoot our own economic foot to pull that off.

I'm sure the US gov't infects their software also, by the way. Spy vs. Spy.

All the big countries are slimebags and the smaller ones don't have the resources to be global slimebags.
