Why do I have to set active hours? And can only set a max of I believe 15 hours? Microsoft is allowed to tell me when I can and can't use my computer? That doesn't seem right as I bought the damn thing myself. It's not like they are just letting me borrow it, even if it really seems that way. I don't know why you're defending Microsoft's largest garbage project ever. It's like they hired a bunch of 22 ear olds fresh out of college that have never coded anything except "Hello World!"
Why do so many of you wish harm on others? I was raised in a life of violence, I have been on both sides of the shit. It's not fun, it's not funny, the comments like yours show how bad of people you really are. Yet you are the tolerant understanding type right? Or did you just get bullied in school and now you want to take it out on others? Please have some decency about yourself.
Exactly my point. You can't claim somebody is a government spy just because of being a member of the military of that country. I'm not saying it's not possible but with the number of people here on slashdot that use "Russia" when they're grasping for straws it should be thrown out of the window until there is some sort of proof.
Yes sir! Money is a lot easier to come by this way, and I don't have to look over my shoulder for cops and other criminals anymore. Far less stressful. I hear people talk about stress at work and I just chuckle and think to myself "If you only knew what stress was."
And what's more, Microsoft patch vulnerabilities far faster (within a couple of month), compared to Linux [slashdot.org], which may take up to 2 years before releasing a patch [zdnet.com].
Actually, you have your facts misconstrued. Most of those Linux CVE's were patched at the same time they found them and they roll out updates immediately, which is never more than a day or two from having the distro maintainer roll them out also, leaving you free to update and fix the issue. Where as Microsoft can find out about an exploit and wait months to roll out an update. Now the "which may take up to 2 years to fix" well, fact is that may have been in the code for 2 years it wasn't known about for 2 years and you cant fix what you don't know is there. Not to mention shit MS08-067(I had fun with that one for years..) Also you are comparing the Linux kernel of 8 years(multiple versions all being worked on at once) To one version of windows. How about lump ALL supported versions of windows into your numbers and get back to us. You have done nothing to help, only to misinform the masses on multiple things. Like how the Linux kernel structure is completely different than the windows OS structure, And how CVE tallying works. I once again will not say that Linux is 100% secure, but its a far sight more than anything Microsoft is. Not to mention, Look closely at a lot of those exploits. You have to have local access already to the machine, unlike a lot of Microsoft exploits that allow you to attack from anywhere in the world with just an ip and a port number providing they're not behind NAT.
Agreed. Doesn't happen a lot when I read your posts. But you will have someone chime in with "Linux is insecure too! (cite exploit that was fixed within days of discovery)" Linux/Unix may not be 100% secure, but its a hell of a lot more secure than anything Microsoft makes..
Please sir, This is slashdot. We can not tolerate your use of Facts and Common Sense on a Russia bashing thread. Please mod yourself to -6 "Russian Paid Shill" O.o
So, you're saying that Russia is exactly like the United States? Because in almost ANY company in the USA you can find ex military personell(which is what a lot of people who claim "employee's with a history of Kremlin involvement" mean) Does that mean that nobody around the world should hire anybody from the states?
Good luck with that. It's not like folks in big cities actually give a fuck about rural Americans any more.
And yet they still don't understand how we ended up with Trump as POTUS. They pay attention to only what is in front of them and don't give a fuck about anybody but their self. And they wonder why the rest of the world hates us. This is the attitude that turns our society into garbage.
Try that in the high rises here in Las Vegas, which happen to be build less than a block away from one of the worst drug and crime filled areas.. fuck around and get hit by stray bullets standing on your patio.
Reformed criminal chiming in to say, You got it 100% correct.. However very few people understand that, and the people that do understand it, and have the power to do something about it don't want to.
I've never let a TV show do that to me, however I understand what you mean. It sounds as though you and your girlfriend use TV responsibly, you don't depend on it like so many people seem to be lately, also things like Facebook, and Twitter, Instagram.. They are letting it become their everything. It makes the the rare occurrence of the child temper tantrum over video games seem like, well child's play. Pun intended? Either way it doesn't seem to be mentally healthy.
Problem is here someone would figure out how to copy that and transfer it onto another card, kind of like how defcon did to vegas about 10 years ago.. I thought it was hilarious. RFID is a joke.

1000% Agreed!

Adversaries would likely avoid it, however.
So I repeat. Does that mean that nobody around the world should hire anybody from the states?
I guess my attempt at humor was lame. Sorry to waste your time.

i was thinking maybe something along the lines of if then else
Boy you sure do stretch that "adult" word pretty thin.

If it was the "Free Market" why would people be complaining about the price? O.o
multiple do here in Las Vegas, But I wouldn't call us remote, or small.

Those type should be killed IMO. But that's me.

Agreed, especially the shit like set top boxes.
