Do you get equally upset when someone talks about a chroot jail on Linux? /j

Yeah, the "it's actually different agents" theory simply doesn't work with the movies themselves. Such as when George Lazenby's Bond resigned in anger (which Moneypenny intercepted) - as I recall, he nostalgically looked through momentoes of the past cases. Or when Barbara Bach's XXX upsets Roger Moore's Bond by mentioning his murdered wife.

Well, this last movie - like all the preceding Bond movies - did end with the teaser "James Bond Will Return". But Amazon's in charge now., so maybe they'll do some stupid alternate universe thing, have 007 show up in Middle-Earth or something.

I've always enjoyed the Bond movies (even the bad ones - turn off your brain and enjoy the car chases), but I don't have high hopes for the franchise going forward. I'd love to be proved wrong though.

"Yes, you did pay to delete the backup... but not the redundant copy."

Well, odds are the people in charge at Instructure are relatively stupid themselves. It's like the old Sherlock Holmes quote: "Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself" - the Instructure leadership probably can't fathom how anyone smarter than them could exist.

Given how people keep stupidly paying these ransoms... maybe it's time to criminalize that act.

GoogleBook never sleeps! It is always watching...

Uh, out for you! Yeah, that's it. It is always watching out for you.

Well, it wasn't just Apple. Google was cynically playing that tune on repeat for marketing purposes - while not letting anyone on Android who wasn't using Google's own apps to encrypt RCS either.

Translation: Guy whose company has made untold billions from AI is telling people to embrace AI because it'll solve everything.

I remember our university had what amounted to a showroom - a place we could go to see all the different varieties of computers which were available to campus people (students, faculty, and staff) with some sort of discount from the manufacturer.

Right now, it's pretty likely the following would also cover this:

"whitehouse.gov/insidertrading"

You've both asked, and answered, your own question.

I think we're also still "two weeks" away from that imaginary beautiful gift Trump claimed the Iranians offered as well...

When the tech firms got involved with creating these sites in the first place, it wasn't out of the goodness of their CEOs' (non-existent) hearts...

They didn't burn the robot's arm with incense because robots are deathly afraid of fire.

Just once, I'd like to see the white hat turn out to be someone like Jisoo...
