Bungie won't have Activision to "incentivize" them with a bonus of $x million if they sell N items by a certain date. That was supposedly the motivation for selling so many pieces of the game as DLC (which counted toward the "N items"), in the first year. Supposedly.
What Bungie does with this new-found freedom is anyone's guess.
I just put FreeBSD in a VirtualBox instance within Windows. The support for mounting a Windows folder in FreeBSD is lacking. That's a VirtualBox + FreeBSD issue. The same feature works fine with VirtualBox + Linux.
That being said, there are workarounds such as 'scp'. In all other respects, I like being on FreeBSD. I have an XFCE desktop configured on it, and it is nice and fast.
Also, if you just installed FreeBSD directly on the computer, you would not have to worry about VirtualBox. I would have done that if I had been starting a fresh PC.
The US is upset because Huawei allegedly sold things to Iran, against the sanctions. However, that's not illegal.
The US is able to take action because Huawei allegedly committed bank fraud to do so. That's illegal. The "bank fraud" is the basis for the arrest/detention.
I suspect it will be possible to analyze video of a person (like a news reader) and determine with a reasonable degree of accuracy whether they actually believe what they're telling you.
That's why organizations lie to the press secretary.
Professional operating systems do not deactivate themselves for specious reasons. Therefore, Win 10 Pro is not worthy of the "Pro" nomenclature, and customers of Win 10 Pro are not getting what they paid for.
Those "cry babies" you refer to? They are more accurately known as irate customers who paid for a professional-grade product, and damn sure have the right to be mad when shit like this happens.
If you search for "Secure Device Onboard", and then go to the link on the Intel site, it shows a whole chain of trust in which the manufacturer has to participate. So, the point is that the manufacturers have to be onboard for this. There's even an entity called a 'Device Management Service Provider' that is named there.
That being said, there seems to be nothing to stop manufacturers from simply not participating, as long as they don't want the 'Secure Device Onboard' certification. So...yep, plenty of default passwords, outdated software, no encryption, and unsecured clouds available.

One alternative is 'hold on while I put something that has been near my crotch next to my face'.
Somehow it does not seem like a good concept, now.
Seconded. The 'business-class' Thinkpads are excellent.

And, I think, fronting some of the development costs.
And the Ultima Thule is the bestest of all of the racks.

By a sudden increase in the quantity of cheap phones discovered in the garbage cans at FaceBook?
Strobe-light scene, set in a nightclub?
No. And pray that they do not alter it any further.
That's why organizations lie to the press secretary.
This. Pure and simple.
A shitty idea which has borne shitty results.

Winner of the Internet, today.
Can't see the point for us users, anyway.
Seconded.
Also, if you are using a shitty network route to reach a cross-globe website, and you don't care about graphics, Lynx can be blazingly fast.
In that case, I'd have guessed Minneapolis/St. Paul.
Shall we call it a "Snap decision"?
<rimshot!>
They are on the right track, since they are unconcerned about false positives.
Ms. Pac-Man only gets 75% of the dots compared to what Pac-Man gets.
I suspect that was a troll.
You mean PowerShell?
Ooooh. For extra irony, they need to keep making sequels of "Death Becomes Her".
That's their motto, you know. "Space Force, For Free Space!"
