Not a particularly good or interesting metric. I have 2 desktop computers as home, but between tablets and phones there is 9 devices (of which probably 5 are on). We are at a stage where portable devices are where desktops were 10-15 years ago where we replace them on such a regular basis that everyone has lots of them. That will change in the coming years as devices reach the point where most people find them powerful enough and don't need to replace which should see a massive consolidation in the industry, will be interesting to see who survives that apart from Samsung and Apple.
Most manufacturers of quality have long moved past this policy for new devices. My LCD monitor is has a zero dead/zero bright pixel policy at purchase.
Wind generators have a finite lifespan usually in the 20 year range upon which time they need to either be replaced or refurbished in addition to ongoing maintenance, things with moving parts breakdown!
More likely they are still chasing down suspects, providing information may make it easy for suspects to check if they have been stung and rapidly cleanup the evidence. Not sure how you can load the malware too early when you are accessing an illegal child porn site!
Have they really been given a free pass though? unless the statute of limitations has expired they can cream as much information out of this for the next year or 2 and then proceed to prosecute everyone once the vulnerability is discovered and closed. Unless you have already been through a trial there is no double jeopardy issues with reinstating the charges later
Not sure where this one is targeted though, too expensive compared to low end options and too underspecced for mid or high end. seems an all around fail.
Those are not actual prices, at least not the prices you get if you purchase. the mobile models are not purchasable by consumers directly so Intel don't bother with real prices on their website.
I think it is more of a case that they realise the information they have access to is far more valuable than prosecuting one pervert and losing that access to prosecute just one is not a good use of that resource, at least I HOPE that is the reasoning.
It is actually even worse then that, in breaking up the cartels and incompetent taxi industries they have gotten rid of many of the regulations and that were put in place to try and protect consumers. So now we have an equally corrupt and morally bankrupt lot but no oversight or protection from their behaviour.
Perhaps the article poster is not familiar with recent history? their have been both significant gains in CPU and GPU power, especially GPU. however improvements tend to be focused where it is needed most e.g. performance per watt.
yep instead I invested in shares and property. admittedly my property has only doubled in value but since I can leverage against it I made 10 fold profit. My shares made me 6 fold return on investment, yeah I feel so depressed I didn't instead invest in bitcoin to make less money.
that would change nothing. admins would just get accustomed to always adding --force. you don't run a command with the intention of doing damage, you do it because you needed to do it, a mistype/mistake will happen with or without --force.
Quite easy to see how this happens. App developer has no knowledge of security and doesn't really care about it one way or the other. uses a template or precanned demo as the skeleton for his app and inherits the settings that existed their. It is actually a problem I regularly see in some of the enterprise apps some of the organisations I work with face every day from developers too.
It is too expensive for me, but fuck man it is still far better value than consoles if you care about high quality graphics or VR. consoles are for those that are happy to settle for less or simply can't afford the best. (I use both a console and PC for gaming, obviously PC's are superior in almost every aspect for gaming except cost and a few console exclusives)
Yep, these are the people that really should be in services like AWS or Azure as they simply don't have a good understanding of technology or what it takes to provide HA/DR (not that AWS seems to have done a good job either with this mess).
I both agree and disagree, the problem is community service is hardly something that is going to prevent other idiots from doing the same braindead thing and in the long run the public in general are probably better served by being severe on this sort of thing. Once you set a precedent for treating this highly stupid and dangerous act as just a slap on the risk it no longer represents a deterrent for others.
if they live pay check to pay check with zero balance at the end of the month absolutely. Unless you at the absolute minimum subsistence living it means they are living beyond their means and doing so by choice, that is financially irresponsible to say the least.

Government Agencies? Banks? really? since when the fuck did they start using Tor for Business?
of course they have insider Foes, they treat most of their staff like shit.

really that is amazing news, when did steam, GoG and humble store come to Xbox, playstation and Nintendo?

They must cycle the water in the pool regularly or not have many kids in it, would have expected it to several times that volume

And if you hit and injured/killed someone while illegally speeding you would be up on charges.
he ILLEGALLY flew the drone over a crowd, this was an intentional act and is illegal for exactly the reason that eventuated here.

and? that somehow makes financial mismanagement acceptable does it?
Mozilla lost its way a while back, this is just further signs of the rott.
