That's pretty much what a widget is.

Forget losing jobs, these things will make workers lose limbs. Traditional robot arms are fixed in place and surrounded by a cage, and accidents still happen. Humanoid robots just move all around the floor carrying heavy parts, with seemingly no thought given to safety.

I'm guessing Microsoft's reasoning is that since you trust the driver, you probably also trust the companion app from the same vendor. On the flip side, what's stopping LG from pushing the adware into the driver itself? Unfortunately, this is an issue with every OS that has a monolithic kernel.

The Slovakian land registry also got hacked 2 years ago. I wonder if they are using the same software.

Literally every EV uses Panasonic 18650 cells already, the lockdown is in software.

Maybe this will be a lesson to manufacturing as a whole that putting industrial control logic into the cloud has always been a retarded idea. Even if you have perfect security, your competition can still shut down your production by hiring a DDoS.

One of the hardest parts when switching to Linux was learning to use the command line and shellscripts instead of relying on "power tools" for everything. It's a very different mindset from the Windows world, but once you adjust it's a lot more pleasant. I feel like telling people that "Linux is exactly like Windows now" is counterproductive. Sure, you can try to use Linux like Windows, but it's a miserable experience.

Amazon cares about your security. Which is why their next step will be to also remove fraudulent, dangerous or IP infringing products from amazon.com. Right?

Finally a way to enjoy the Willow remake!

Should've been fired for creating Javascript.

The worm scans the drive for a folder, creates an .lnk file with the same name and an icon that makes it look like a folder and renames the original folder to something else. The .lnk links to powershell with the payload passed as a command line argument. It's not that easy to spot that something is off, especially since Windows hides extensions by default.

Coq was released in the nineties. But mathematicians hate it because it doesn't allow them to be sloppy. Well now they will be forced to do what they should've done three decades ago.

To be fair, even just a tool that can search the literature for solutions of similar problems is extremely useful.

I mean, the Play Store has always been flooded with shovelware, AI may actually raise the average quality.
