The alternative to "is happening" is "is not happening." What I'm saying is your claim that protesting only makes sense when there is an alternative is absurd, since there is always an alternative. That statement doesn't make any sense at all.
For the same reason we don't vote on if you should be allowed to drive on the street. This is the new version of "we need a whole new set of laws that mirror the old ones but add 'on the internet' at the end." An illegal left turn is an illegal left turn. No need for "... made by an autonomous vehicle" at the end of the statute.
Welcome to Slashdot, where technology is discussed and viewed in general in a positive light unless there is good reason to be concerned. What I really mean, of course, is what the fuck are you doing on Slashdot. Did you get lost on your way to neoluddites.com?
So the local news "followed Waymo vehicles" unbeknownst to Wayno. This wasn't some kind of expose, so why the hell wasn't local news management professional enough to let Waymo know what was going on in advance?
That was true at one time but you haven't been paying attention if you haven't noticed how many clueless dolts have flocked to this sight in the last several years.
No, but it *is* funny how you flaunt your ignorance yet again, showing you have no idea what systemd is and literally no clue how it works, including how it is literally nothing like svchost.exe.
You are a moron who is too stupid to understand what I wrote, and who I actually believe is so stupid that he thinks he didn't make a fool of himself while making it painfully obvious that he is too stupid to understand what was written.
So you are telling us you are a typical drug addict who steals phones then? Seriously, just STFU. You've already broadcast to the world what a phenomenally stupid motherfucker you are.
Dear idiot. The drug addict wants a phone to contact his drug dealer or that he can pawn. He does not have the ability to reset it, nor is any pawn shop going to accept it if he can't unlock it. They are looking for easy money, like the easy money one would get betting you have literally no knowledge or understanding of the subject matter you are pretending to grasp.
Tell me you aren't that fucking stupid. They pick it up and try to use it, then discovering that it is useless put it down again, or turn it in in hopes of a reward.
You are a moron. Not all updates are security updates. You never heard of bugfixes? How about feature set improvement? Seriously, this is the second time you have shown what an incompetent idiot you are in as many replies to my posts. Get an education and STFU until you do.
You don't even know what version of Windows. Perhaps it was an OEM version only shipped on ships. My only claim is that neither of us know. You are the one making a claim based solely on conjecture
Bullshit. Air gapped means no network connection from the LAN to the WAN. It has nothing to do with wireless vs wired connections. What makes you think that a wired connection to the outside world is significantly safer than a well encrypted wireless one?
Actually that is the very definition of air gapped. In order to transfer files you sneaker-net. How else do you propose to apply updates and do other requisite file transfers?
So in your mind the USB drive driver wouldn't be present. I suppose if the only thing it was used for was 2 Factor Auth, but I think in the cast majority of cases the USB drive would be used for sneaker-netting if the system is air gapped.
If you had the technical accumen you claim you would know that RDP is Microsoft Windows Remote Desktop Protocol. Most major corporations are still so technically inept that they still run Windows. What made you think these ships administrators would be smarter?
Who gives a fuck. The number of cars in the road not made in the US has been significant since before you were born. Your post wreaks of Trumptardism.

You are a fucking idiot. Most drug addicts don't even know what factory reset is, never mind how to accomplish it. Your stupidity is astounding.
Tell me you aren't that fucking stupid. They pick it up and try to use it, then discovering that it is useless put it down again, or turn it in in hopes of a reward.
Let's pretend you aren't a secret agent and the purpose of locking the phone is to deter theft not guard against APTs. Idiot.

Nobody's backpedaling dumbfuck.
No idea what is going on in the real world?
It mentions RDP, worms, and viruses, so they mention Windows implicitly, you just aren't smart enough to understand what you read.
You don't even know what version of Windows. Perhaps it was an OEM version only shipped on ships. My only claim is that neither of us know. You are the one making a claim based solely on conjecture
That is a claim you make, not a fact you know.

I guess that depends on if the undocumented user was there at install time as a Windows default or not.
