As it is currently, I only use my windows 10 bootup to play games, and do personal/social media stuff on. I do all my real work and "computer usage" on a Linux distro. The surface area for getting exploited is fairly small given what I'm using windows for, no good reason to switch until I absolutely have to, and even then it is likely to be at least a generation past windows 11 and timed when I eventually do age off my hardware.

Wish I had points to give today. But yea exactly what you said. Have a hobby that deals in rare old stuff, then come to terms that rare old stuff is expensive. You either make your own, or pay someone else the price it's worth.

I tried the "new teams" last month and the biggest pain was the changed the direction of the posts with newest on top, with no setting to show this the default way. The biggest question is WHY, why change something that everyone is used to, and is consistent with all other collaboration apps. Personally I'm staying on old teams until this is at least a configurable option.

I'm sure she as well as her dead constituents will vote in 2024.

obviously they are holding it wrong

Web browser? you mean search engine? Editors don't even read the summary much less the article these days.

Old people who happen to be scientists, make a post on their political website.

I had never heard of this engine till earlier this week (new game uses it) and now it's in a new article. Brotatoe was the game, still in early release on steam, I was looking for something fun, and mindless for the Steam Deck.

This is a really simple case of the majority of images are slanted towards societies perspective on beauty and sex. As well as the training for the AI being targeted at making useful results. When you take that training bias and then tell it to generate things with "negative weight" you are essentially asking for it to move away from all previous tags and attractors in the network. It's not surprising that it ends up in related spaces often.

To a paywall.... links here always lead to a paywall

They didn't use encrypted messages, they used plain text from an endpoint, either compromised or willing.

The statement is misleading, the vulnerability is in the mentioned plug-ins but exposed via a poorly designed HTML-5 client. All of these related CVE's are corrected by updating the vCenter server, which hosts the plug-ins AND the web service that serves up the HTML-5 Client interface.

Exactly, I suspect that this grant was the result of a support reachout from Zoom. Zoom noticed they couldn't do something they wanted and contacted Apple and likely after discussing the security and needs of the request, the grant was given. This was likely not secret just not advertised, other products with the same requirements and willingness to work with Apple with the security ramifications would likely be afforded the same permissions. This "story" feels like clickbait trying to apply nefarious underpinnings to something actually quite standard.
