when will a Windows box be able to log a default user on with a password without intervention? When will Windows boot without all the apps and documents reopened?
I must be missing something. Windows can log on a default user with a password automatically. Windows doesn't reopen my apps and docs when I reboot.
This summary is hot garbage or a Tepco advertisement/PR damage control measure. They are beyond incompetent.
I was going to go with bat-$hit crazy but then I saw he was part of the industry and his dismissive attitude is part of the problem. Japan should spend the $6 billion Olympic bid on cleanup. Too bad they didn't go $10.5 trillion in debt by modernizing their nuclear infrastructure.
The replacement detectors are here and their maximum reading is 25-millisieverts. I'm happy to report we're making real progress on the cleanup. Just look at the numbers!
A guy kills himself based on his own imagination and you think that's a failure of society? I think there are more than enough services available for anything he could dream up.
Agreed. As a treat I'll get the kids a cinnamon role and there is no difference in their behavior afterwards, with the exception that I can guilt them into doing more chores.
This whole wireless control thing has degenerated into silly gimmicks
You're completely missing the point. This is about technology and how cool it is. It doesn't have to be useful or logical.
And bonus points if it is useful and logical. Instead of the fun and useful-to-me stuff I do with my Hue lights that nobody else cares about, I'll simply mention in a semi-technical forum that I use PowerShell and hook into Lync's APIs to turn a light outside the door of my home office on and red when I'm on the phone so my kids won't come knocking.
Just because they're hand-picked doesn't mean they're not as good. No company is going to hire an auditor that simply passes them, and no auditing company will risk their reputation by giving a company a passing grade for an insecure system.
iOS still has less vulnerabilities than Android, so I'm not sure how you can back up your raging fanboyism.
Please link your evidence of less vulnerabilities for iOS or you are just showing your raging fanboyism.
At some point you trust technology and also reinforce proper user behavior. I hate catch-phrases but your e-mail hygiene should have layers of protection (defense in depth). Assuming that the message got through IP reputation filters, SPAM analysis, malware scans, and was delivered to your user, you rely on desktop protection and cross your fingers that nobody opens it.
We have SMTP appliances from Axway and we used to stop all executable attachments and deliver a notification to the user to call the help desk and request a release. Times changed and we don't do that any more. However, you could annotate the message to remind the user that if they don't know who it's from or what it is or if they weren't expecting it to not open it. And some will anyway. We also used to hold certain attachments for four hours until the virus definitions (and the other defenses) received a couple of updates and then reprocess the message.
If you do try to roll your own, be aware that everyone and their dog creates PDF files with varying degrees of success and we had certain PDF files that caused services to fail on our gateway while they tried to scan and process them. You didn't mention the volume but make sure your solution scales well.

I managed to coax Ubuntu 13.04 (32-bit) into life
I had to hack the install scripts
Windows XP will not be missed.
I think you dumped the wrong girlfriend.

In my day we passed along life experiences with stories and interpretive dance. Kids these days.
The phrase is "you have another think coming".
Judas Priest disagrees.
If you can't see it does it matter? And if it's tucked away in a cabinet why does it need to be ruggedized?

I get that, but if your speedometer is pegged to the maximum reading at 150mph, the thought might occur to you that you are going faster.
Not my car. My first thought would be that I drove over a cliff.
Why is that? It's puzzling that the maximum speed limits available to me are less than half of what the speedo goes to.
Its been years since the accident. It seems like enough time to me, but I am not a doctor or know that much about medicine.
But you did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
>We won't run out of uranium on any timescale that matters.
With *current* technology though, mined uranium and reactors that can only consume U235, the accessible supply will only last something like 50 years
Assuming lgw is 95 years old I must agree with him.

Assisted suicide is legal in three US states.

How can anyone with a straight face say that is an acceptable security method?
It's not a security method, it's a convenience method.

Here you go: Malware infestation running amok on Android
And I'm pretty sure the fact that it's a pro-Apple / iOS website is a coincidence.

Me, too! I didn't know you knew Glenn.
By their reports and having seen many people owning them. Almost as many as iPads, actually.
That is some John Travolta level denial.
