  1. the indiegogo is now closed but here is a link for anyone that wanted to look. https://www.indiegogo.com/proj...

  2. Re: Virtue signalling on Volvo To Impose 112mph Speed Limit On All New Cars From 2020 (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Just watched that movie last night.

  3. not a bad item on Valve Quietly Discontinues Steam Link Hardware Production (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    I haven't had many issues. most of the issues I have had are based on my pc having a issue running the game I'm trying or steam not wanting to go into big screen mode. I also make sure the steam link and my pc are hooked up via network cable and not wifi.

  4. Gross domestic profit? I mean we could go with full global profit of the company that works too. What the hell did you think I meant with GDP?

  5. I think the penalty for having your security compromised should be really big. as in the fines start at 25% of the entire companies GDP and if something is as easy like this artical says then it's 50% of the companies GDP. That might make companies take security seriously which they don't now due to too small fines

  6. Yes I screwed up grammatically. congrats for pointing it out. It happens when I'm talking to someone and typing at the same time now and then. Didn't mean to get your panties in a twist. I'm only human, I make mistakes.

  7. I work in printer/copiers. Don't have much of a choice in what applications I can use or OS. shit we had to modify the windows 7 version of the main software we use to get it to install on the windows 8 and windows 10 laptop we were given. the software people for the printers don't care. hell I can't update to newer browsers because they don't work with the old security practicals the printers use.

  8. There aren't really any alternatives for most people. I can't use linux if I want to be able to play most of my games as they are not supported on linux. I also have programs for work that will not work on linux and me and a coworker have been unable to modify it to work. Mac OS is a whole nother thing as it only installs on specific hardware configurations unlike windows and linux/unix so for many Windows is really the only OS they can use. which sucks. luckly I only mess with windows 10 at work. I still have windows 7 at home.

  9. what if... on EU To Give Internet Firms 1 Hour To Remove Extremist Content (go.com) · · Score: 1

    We just cut off the EU as a whole to the internet? just do a ip range ban. if they want to censor the interent as bad as they want then no internet for them? or lest nothing thats from the out side of the EU. This would suck for lots and lots of innocent people yes, I know.

  10. Filip did a copyright claim on someone who re-uploaded his apology video cause he took it down. Filip seems a little bit of a hypocrite.

  13. The honey app that's being promoted by youtubers now? It was known in the past for being spyware and some reports of it changing ads on pages to comprimised ads.

  14. Re:How exactly does this work? on Malicious Faxes Leave Firms 'Open' To Cyber-Attack (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Looking at the link..I am a bit over my head but does this effect digital fax or just the old analog lines? Company i work at just went to digital fax so the faxes come over the network and not the old phone cords. lest on the mfp side. No idea how the server side is set up, as they wont say.

  15. funny thing about comcast's security on Comcast Security Flaw Exposes Partial Addresses, Social Security Numbers of 26 Million Users (buzzfeednews.com) · · Score: 1

    I have for the 3 years gotten emails sent to my yahoo email address, from comcast that were sent to a another comcast email. my yahoo email is no where in comcast's systems and the comcast customer I'm geeting's emails lives on the other side of the state. we don't know each other. Comcast also has no idea why i'm getting copies of this persons emails and I've talked to their security department twice about this and still no fix. The last time they rebuilt his whole email on their system...I still get emails though. So this isn't really surprising honestly.

  16. don't like soft-keyboards on The Touch Bar Could Replace the Keyboard on Future Macbooks (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I hate typing on the soft-keyboards on my phone. It looks like i hit the right keys but I'm always off. I will never like this nor ever buy any laptop or keyboard like this.

  17. Re:contracted work on Visualizing the Best and Worst Paid Jobs in the Tech Sector (howmuch.net) · · Score: 1

    No I know i need to work on getting out of here. my dad might last tell Christmas so while I'd love to get another job I'm currently focused on try to make the best with what little time he has. I worked fast food for 12 years before i landed this job 6 years ago. was surprised that I got treated like I was still in fast food. seems people like to look down on you no matter what job you do for them.

  18. Re:contracted work on Visualizing the Best and Worst Paid Jobs in the Tech Sector (howmuch.net) · · Score: 1

    I would rather stay out of Cali honestly. also I'm only a little over weight normal person so doubt i'd get anything.

  19. Re:contracted work on Visualizing the Best and Worst Paid Jobs in the Tech Sector (howmuch.net) · · Score: 1

    when I was in training few years ago the techs that were directly working for the printer company were complaining about them trying to contract out all the tech spots. they were making 70-80k+ and refusing to take a drop in pay. so in house makes lots more then contracted out. but I am looking for new job. just haven't heard back is all.

    I am looking for other jobs. been working this one to build up the worked in IT secotor for the resume, but even that has been hard finding jobs in WA that I qualify for. have applyed for a couple out of state but due to current family issue I wont really be free to move out of state untill the end of the year. But i am looking.

  22. contracted work on Visualizing the Best and Worst Paid Jobs in the Tech Sector (howmuch.net) · · Score: 2

    companies are contracting out more and more IT support. I'm a enterprise lead printer tech, so I help techs all around the country with issues and help find solutions to many problems we run into by working with the printer hardware or software engineers. but I only pull in 41k before taxes since the printer company contracted out techs to another company. I'm seeing more and more of that happening too. it sucks.

    Youtube copyright claims lots of stuff. Hell facebook's algorithm took down posts that had sections of the declaration of independence due to hate speech because of the language of it. youtube is no different. just some codes thats says if a=b then take down b crap.

  25. Re:and how about game support? on Hundreds of Thousands of Windows XP and Vista Users Won't Be Able To Use Steam Soon (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    I have the same question. They either need to refund or fix the games to run on the newer windows. I just now see a post made a couple of months ago, years after buying red faction 2 that has a fix for having more then 2gigs of ram. never been able to run the game since I had 4gigs at the time and now 16gigs on my pc. Maybe this will let me play the game finally on a side note about OS's you'd be surprised at what OS'es are used to fly airplanes.....
