The summary says: "Microsoft also addressed three zero-day flaws, including two that are already being exploited in the wild. "
(scratches head) How can a flaw be called zero-day and already be exploited in the wild?
Because a zero-day is any flaw made public before the developer knows about it. One of the main ways this happens is by noticing that hackers are breaking into systems using a heretofore unknown exploit.

Outer space is OUTSIDE of the United States.
Your statement would apply if these data center space nutters could certify that everything they launch will reach escape velocity.
For everything else, what goes up, must come down. Right back into our jurisdiction.
Comment This is why we need AGI ASAP (Score 1) 19
We can't afford to let the success of big tech companies depend on the health of fragile meatbags. We need to get resilient, fault-tolerant AGI in there running the enterprise. Also, unlike meatbags, you don't need $100M stock payouts to convince an AGI to work as a corporate executive.

They've already dealt with this. If you read the fine print on these agreements, many or most of the recent ones say that the company has the option of rolling up any "substantially similar" arbitration cases into a single mass arbitration. (Which as usual, is decided by a person whose paycheck ultimately depends on the business of that same company.)

It might be more productive to have third party labs document PFAS contamination of foods and then file a class action suit over the contamination.
Sorry. When you signed up for that discount card a few years ago, you agreed to individual binding arbitration only.

What the fuck is a Oneplus or Oppo?
Let's figure it out together:

Apparently, Oneplus is a syntax error.

That DEI enforcement group seems to be asleep on the job. The current administration has appointed numerous women* to important positions.
*Biological women, that is. Sorry about the rest of you guys. I guess you are going to have to do a better job tucking.
Are you sure about that "biological" thing? Most of them look like Stepford Wives.
