That job is several years behind me now.
Also, the people that do give a shit sometimes can't help themselves. The wireless has become such a basic part it started becoming difficult to buy a decent sized screen without it. Sure, there are REAL monitors of a large size out there, but they tend to be several thousand more than a similarly spec'd tv with wifi.
I have taken apart dozens of TVs to remove the wifi. It is usually quite trivial. Even in the unlikely event that the wifi logic board is not separate, the antennae are quite obvious and a quick snip will make them useless.
Ok so I understand that they bought up Morpheus a while back, and it does some fantastic things with current state of virtualization with all the terraform and container tools that one could want...
But where did the underlying bare metal hypervisor come from? Is it BSD based so that it can be commercialized fully? Is it a significant enhancement over ZenServer? One doesn't usually just poof a new bare metal hypervisor out of nowhere.
The new admins don't know how to maintain a simple file server anymore.
They can vibe code something else to use the power though.
Sure. One machine is compromised, in the MS engineers' heads.
The trouble is now there is a standardized, repeatable location and methodology that can be used to now get ALL the passwords ever typed into edge. Suddenly the text file sitting on my desktop named nextcomputerbuild.txt is a significantly less likely to be directly targeted by bad actors.
They need to think through - yup machine is hosed. Oh well...should have had better antivirus.... and eventually get to the point of realizing ermagerd now my bank accounts and investment accounts are emptied out and being used to fund terrorism.
I think the odds of him being used by a legit cyber crime organization vs the french victim organization just plain being criminally negligent are pretty even.
Potentially just wildly incompetent...but if I was defense of some 15 year old, I'd lay it out pretty hard that the security was probably so bad my mother could have tripped and fell into the data.
Of course they approved the deal. Somebody is willing to pay super big bucks for something that doesn't have even close to that level of value.
How in the world did you write my story?
Exactly the same. Same origin story. Same frustration with Ubuntu. Same landing spot for same reasons.
The trouble with protondb is that there are gorillas out there that approach a gold rated game, then proudly display their 15 commandline options, some of which aren't actually real, and then declare the game was stuttering, unplayable, or doesn't even launch.
Yo. It launches. Quit screwing with stuff. Just doubleclick the button.
Is it too much to ask for a tiny little lovenote somewhere acknowledging that the PHB that allowed this to happen in the first place is enjoying a severance package?
In what world do you let a newguy do anything important...let alone a newguy that doesn't even breathe.
Roll it to the data centers and nowhere else. They have dedicated lines, if they're built properly they have dedicated backup power generators, etc.
Don't make some normal working stiff deal with warm beer because some rich twits have decided to use AI algorithm abc rather than a more modest algorithm built in a world with physical system constraints. These models do not have to be built with infinity resources. More efficient models will be made, and the sooner economic forces bring these advancements to bear the better.
I clicked at least 5 of those links...none were to the actual current article.
Shame on the submitter and editor here mixing the end of biden administration, 2015, and other random stuff.
Dude just give me the article in question where USA bought a device from SOMEWHERE that looks like it might be the thing that did the thing.
No way. The guys that can't manage to manage a real machine, can't understand how things work, and farming out thought also can't figure out their container shouldn't have hard coded creds?
Yeah this person was just sitting around waiting for this to happen. Like most people that do this they aren't the brightest.
No...HBO Max is not a competitor. They're in the same market, but they're not a real rival.
No line available at 300 baud.
