Similarly, I do the AT&T prepaid thing and pay little over $40/mo.
I have never had an issue getting whatever Internet access I need. My unused data also rolls over to the next month. I currently have 5.6GB of unused data (2 months of rolled over data), of which I have used less than 1GB.
Compare a PIX (now ASA I guess) to a WatchGuard or a SonicWALL and you quickly see how other vendors have been eating Cisco's lunch for a while now.
When a used to do SOHO to medium size business support we dropped Cisco from our quotes in favor of Adtran for all router and switch requirements. Their support was top notch and their CLI was very similar to IOS syntax.
All this exploit does is remove the "are you sure?" prompt that is displayed when a user that is ALREADY an administrator tries to do something in a high integrity context.
He is an idiot for pointing that out?
If it was just a standard user, this exploit would not work.
Also, this is not remotely exploitable... so, yeah, if you are already and administrator and have local access to the machine.... well, you can do whatever you want even without the exploit.
As a Windows admin, I find UAC to be useful, because it allows me to elevate in place without having to do a runas or switching users.
Use a single e-mail address for logins, but then heavily filter that alias. Nobody but companies have that e-mail.
Then, use @domain.com to hand out to acquaintances or anyone who you want to receive mail from.
Every year, increment the user portion of the address and discontinue the previous year. Users will know to increment the year when their e-mail bounces. If they don't bother and just give up... well, the message obviously wasn't that important.
Then there is the private address which I hand out to friends and family which I don't change, but also don't hand out very much.
We don't have rugged repairable phones because those phones failed in the marketplace and are no longer available./quote.
I see the theory behind your post and in an ideal world, maybe that would be true. But the reality is that the same drive for profit that, in theory, should motivate the seller to make the best product by their customers also drives them to cut costs and a raft of other things that are not in the interest of the consumer.
Let's take Apple's move to discontinue the analog headphone jack. It could be argued that nobody is asking for this. It will certainly obsolete a lot of existing peripherals for no real benefit to the end user... so why would Apple do it? The product is arguably one of the most desired products on the market. Why tamper with a good thing? It certainly doesn't seem as though they have the customer in mind when making this change.
That is one example. Another is the supply channel. If Amazon (for example), decides to not carry a particular product... how likely is it that the product will be bought? So, really, Amazon is the customer that counts more than you do in a company's product calculations. The company will design their product to make Amazon happy (make it smaller and lighter so the shipping costs are lower, etc.) and not really care about what you need/want.
Now, obviously, if people don't buy the product, then that is ultimately what will determine whether or not the company makes the product. But that is after all the other calculations are made. At the end of the day a company is only motivated to make a product that is "good enough" so that it appeals to the largest number of people possible while maintaining all of the other criteria (ie. lowest common denominator)
Simple. If you are an employer or recruiter, create an account. Once you are inside the gates, things are nice and open.
I was simply suggesting that they not make this level of access available to anonymous users.
If it turns out that a single account is crawling thousands of user's info... there you go, you have the user account responsible and can then do whatever internal correlations you need to do in order to determine who is scraping data.
We all know that things can be taken out of context or spun in precise ways to generate implications. You can see the bias in every piece of media out there.
It's like statistics... You can make the actual numbers mean almost anything you want by just presenting them in specific ways (non zero-indexed graphs, for example).
I say, beware of anyone trying to get you to do anything. They have an agenda that fits their self interest. That is the default view. Prove to me otherwise and maybe we can talk. Until then, all of your "facts" are getting null routed.
As an aside, has there ever been an election in America where the candidates were not trying to "save the country" or slinging FUD? As though, if that other guy gets elected, you are going to be scavenging the post-apocalyptic streets for rat meat...
How about, being able to figure out what is going on in another VM guest or on the host by paying close attention to how much guest resources are throttled/scheduled in the VM?

"If it isn't broken, don't fix it" can be a powerful drug.
I am addicted to the "If it ain't broke, fix it till it is" drug, personally...
Actually yes, you can if you turn down all of the settings.
That is what I suspect these consoles will do.
As hardware revs progress, the shiny new stuff will be visible on the latest hardware.
When running on older revs, things start getting disabled back to the level appropriate for the hardware.
Too late, you already supported it! No backsies!
100 revs of hardware is still vastly more simple than millions of permutations, I would think.
Take that away and what exactly would differentiate Scorpio from a gaming PC?
My guess is: cost
When most people are only learning about new discoveries from mass media that cites research papers, much is lost and more bias is introduced
FIFY
That's the whole point.... now you get it.
This has been true for years.

Doesn't elevation in Linux just use sudo?
If so, all you need to do is visudo and add the NOPASSWD flag to the appropriate match rule.
and... lack of edit sucks. Thought I proof read the whole thing but, of course, overlooked the angle brackets (again)...
anyway: YYYY@domain.com is what I meant.
Here's my method for (mostly) solving that issue.
Use a single e-mail address for logins, but then heavily filter that alias. Nobody but companies have that e-mail.
Then, use @domain.com to hand out to acquaintances or anyone who you want to receive mail from.
Every year, increment the user portion of the address and discontinue the previous year. Users will know to increment the year when their e-mail bounces. If they don't bother and just give up... well, the message obviously wasn't that important.

I am guessing retailers since the shipping costs are lower for smaller and lighter products...

You publish a public document then get mad when people use it for their own purposes.... brilliant.
How about you just make user privacy a default so that anonymous users cannot see any information?
You would then see which throw away accounts are being used to log in to see the data...
Sure, there are a lot of twits on Twitter, but I am not sure you could call it a honeypot for them...
either you believe in binary or your don't
nah, screw with people and make tabby the slot...
As long as they don't swap in FB integrations I think it is a win for all.
I think that is a great idea.
Why isn't it the case that new versions of Windows allow you to pick the UI from any previous version of Windows?
Or at least come with some "retro" themes.
I still miss Vista's Aero... animated desktop backgrounds were the best!

Glad you don't work in security.
Joke's on you. He works in IoT security...
