Get a new computer, log in the WhatsApp / messenger/ etc, all your past messages are then decrypted, that means the required cryptography keys are held on their serversâ¦

That requires to read your social media before arrival, so that they can determine that Trump has not be criticized.

Those AI servers are expensive, why retire one early, on the same terms of a normal server which could be 10x cheaper? Better for the environment also to an extent (if powered by carbon neutral).

As they often shutter it. Yes everything has a lifespan, yet most of those nest thermostats would be operational and many will go landfill now. Well done google, Zero environmental conscience.

I for one welcome our new AI robot overlords.

If only Iceland had a form of Geothermal energy to keep them warm....

Wait until they have it running for 10 years and see what that salt has done to the internals. Like dipping something metal in sea water for 10 years, except access is limited due to radioactivity. (used to work in Nuclear reactors and corrosion, that was standard high pressure reactors).

...from having off-shored IT, that must have saved JLR some millions over the years.

Range Rover locks all its doors above 5 mph, to keep undesirables out, flat door handles or not, has done for last 15 years. If getting out is important, get a glass hammer.

Individual days are less important than the whole year. If renewables out produce coal to be the worlds biggest source of electricity generation, then by definition is larger also than natural gas.

Renewables do not work

JLR has been owned since 2008 by Tata Group. The carmaker is not the only part of the sprawling conglomerate to have questions to answer after the hack: in 2023 JLR outsourced a huge part of its computer systems to Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). TCS is one of the biggest outsourcing companies in the world and makes the bulk of the dividends paid out to the Tata family’s holding company. TCS has been at the centre of the response to the hack that has crippled JLR, with a large number of employees scrambling to work out the source of the intrusion. TCS did not respond to requests for comment. Under the five-year, £800m contract agreed in 2023, TCS and JLR planned to “rapidly transform, simplify, and manage its digital and IT estate, supporting its broader strategic business transformation”. TCS runs large parts of JLR’s key computer systems, ranging from its networks to data connections, and, crucially, its cybersecurity. Part of the reimagine strategy required more flexible software to enable the luxury carmaker to produce Range Rovers in precisely the configuration demanded by the global rich paying £120,000 plus – all while retaining the efficiency of a high-volume factory. “I would argue that JLR’s software is probably more complex than Nasa putting a spacecraft into space,” said one supplier (with perhaps a touch of hyperbole). “When it works it’s a thing of wonder. This has exposed it.” One of TCS’s jobs was to manage the upgrade of JLR factory systems to the latest software from the German company SAP. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theguardian.com%2Fbu...

A possibility was that the switches were faulty and something brushed, or dropped on them mid flight to knock them both off.
