Blocking the email would not have blocked payments. Victims were supposed to notify them of the transaction numbers after via email.
Also it rekt the MFT table.
I keep hearing Tablets are in decline, laptops are in decline, desktops are in decline, cell phone sales are in decline...
What is everyone using if not one of the above? I can understand that sales may drop because people keep the devices longer, but they still have to be using them unless people are moving away from digitally delivered content somehow.
eBooks were great when they were 50% of the price of the paper version and arrived in a small fraction of the time.
Now I can get a used copy of the paper version in a day for 10% of the eBook cost.
I live in the sticks and can't get anything delivered to my house. They just give up and mark it "no secure location available" or that I wasn't home and make me go pick it up at the post office.
It's cute that you think millennials pamper themselves with eating out and Starbucks. That's what Boomers do. Millennials have to work there because those are the only jobs hiring them.
You must SAVE SAVE SAVE for retirement! Your money will GROW at the astounding rate of.01%! It's only possible to retire because of the time value of money you've invested NOW when you are young!
Oh, no, wait, Wall Street messed up so we bailed them out but everything you have is gone.
Haha, Millenials..... your boomer and gen-x parents and grandparents sold you into slavery in the 80s to finance their BMW 3 series and in the 90s to buy a McMansion. Now you have to keep working until you die to pay for their old age care and keep up the charade that everything is endless 1950s post-war middle class prosperity.
People just won't admit there isn't anything on Mars worth colonizing it for, will they? I mean, it sounds cool, but other than "Woohoo! I'm on Mars!" it's kind of a hell hole.
You don't see people rushing to colonize Antarctica, and that's far more hospitable, closer, and cheaper to do.
The "change" didn't occur all at once or recently, the "change" has been occurring since the Babylonians and Egyptians devised the signs/ecliptic segments 2000 to 3000 years ago. There is no fixed place in time where there was a "change". Some poorly written blogs seem to be perpetuating the idea that someone redesigned "the signs" recently, or that "scientists" discovered a "shift" in the Earth recently (I keep seeing the date of 2009), but nothing out of the ordinary has occurred. This all started with an article in Minnesota Star Tribune where some astronomer pointed out that the "signs" don't line up with the time periods where the sun is within their namesake constellations. This is old news, they haven't lined up for thousands of years. Astrologers were even aware of this, and it's part of astrology's mythos.. that the "sign" in which the sun rises during the Vernal Equinox (usually ~March 21st) denotes the "age".. which I believe is currently Aquarius (according to my 60's/70's crap-pop song collection, anyway). So this story passing around is wrong on it's astronomical facts, and it's wrong on it's astrology facts.. which is fairly astounding.

There are still lines at local stores when some arrive for sale.
Now if they'll just ditch systemd there might actually be a reason to use Ubuntu again.
