It is for this reason that I have gone back to buying paper books... I am incentivized to do so... not my fault that they apparently want to work a lot harder and eat up all their margins bringing me those words printed on paper rather than make ebooks cheaper....
I guess I don't think we're living in a time when Star Trek could be successful
Especially when it is closeted away on some branch stream service.
I will watch them someday when/if the series is licensed to Netflix. Until that day, I guess I won't be seeing the new Star Trek... This despite the fact that I am a fan and continue to watch old episodes of TOS, STTNG, DS9 and Voyager several times a week.
Application whitelisting would at least provide an audit trail in this case if not block the attempt to install altogether if the whitelist is controlled by another department.
It always seemed like snakeoil to me. It would "find" a bunch of stuff then tell you it fixed it. While I don't doubt that it did actually delete those registry entries, it never seemed to make a difference in performance on any of the computers I had tried it on.
The only valuable feature I found with it was to remove entries for programs that were still listed in the "Programs and Features" list but for which the installer was missing/broken. But I have since learned how to just manually snip those out of the registry or just use Autoruns.
*shrug* so then dad get's whacked with a hefty fine if caught.... seems like the same risk/reward calculation that exists currently... I mean... who actually checks the picture or signature to see if they "match" these days?
My DL has a photo of me when I was 50lbs heavier and bearded... it doesn't look much like me now at all yet I have never once had anyone even raise an eyebrow, let alone confront me about it.

There is no hiding old...
Until the second there are 11 legit calls to 911 from the same number for whatever reason... then #outrage!
Is it that hard to make up new super heroes?
I mean, I am not a comic book person so they are all unknown characters to me already.
Just start a new comic book line and make up some characters. Build it up over time.
I wonder if Mark Zuckerberg has ever used an Asus laptop.... /ponder
That brings up another good point.
If we slaughter the animals for food, is it considered cannibalism?
Time to move it to the fake rock outside your cube...
Perhaps clothing from the US is simply too large to be useful as anything other than tents...
Black is white, up is down and short is long.
I see what you did there. /slowclap

You can still fit a lot of ICE breaker code in 3MB!
Love Neuromancer.
I also really love the short stories Burning Chrome and New Rose Hotel.

Someone should really drain that thing and build a castle...
Phew! I thought you were going to say corporate America... I am relieved!

This is why you don't let users install software and implement application (executable) whitelisting.
But will AI be Smart?
Best. Comment. Ever!
