I remember that as well, but all that happened BEFORE it was released to the public. It had the database filesystem, and all the components written in.NET operated way too slowly, so they spent a couple of years re-writing in C++, and dropped the database filesystem.
As I recall, the antivirus vendor problem that is mentioned in the summary didn't seem to come to light to the public until around the release of Windows 8 or so, when Microsoft got tired of dealing with support calls where a third-party antivirus had quarantined a critical component of windows, and the system wouldn't boot. That's when Microsoft got into the antivirus business.
I bet the reason for this is that too many cardholders are using the credit card company's "buyer protection" service to get money back from a bad bitcoin investment. That way the bank gets involved, and loses money, and now therefore won't allow bitcoin purchases at all.
If you're a sysadmin, your physical presence at the office is a comfort for all who work there. If any system goes down or has a problem, it's reassuring for them to know that you can look into it at a moment's notice. Employees often wonder if offsite admins are even available, or are working.
I imagine that the content of computer science changes too fast to be worth publishing a book. By the time the authors have finished the book, and it gets published, there is some new topic that needs to be covered, and other methods get disused. How about Math teachers, or History teachers? Do they still use textbooks?
I remember that Microsoft was developing Windows 3.1 at the time, and kept changing it so it wouldn't run under DR-DOS. Digital Research had to release a patch to allow Windows to run. Maybe that's what you remember.
That's the problem with the "Like" button. Just because those troll pages were lies, doesn't mean that some people stopped "liking" them. It also doesn't mean that the users "Agree" with them. "Like" is just too broad a term.
Aren't drills usually *scheduled*? I know when there is a fire drill at the office, we usually get an email at least a day in advance. This prevents everyone from panicking because they know there is no real danger. In this case, it would prevent a Statewide alert from being sent.
Those are not technically emotions. If you write the words "I feel" in front of your little picture, and it doesn't make sense, then it's not an emotion. Examples:
I feel (CAR)
I feel (CAKE)
I feel (AIRPLANE)
This is the problem brought on when people refuse to communicate with words, and use little pictures instead.
If that were true, it wouldn't explain all the other high scores for other games that are ridiculously unattainable. He lied, and continued to get bolder and bolder about his lies. If it were an honest mistake or a bad photo only, his dragster score might be contested, but I doubt that he would be banned from the Twin Galaxies register.
...And yet there were 3 sequels to the movie, all of which were actually worse than the Verhoeven one. I don't believe there was ever a second Starship Troopers book...
"Flame" as a password worked initially, but not any more. Seeing how Elon is from South Africa, and that Cape Town is suffering from a severe drought, maybe we should try "Water" as the password.
Or this idea might spread to other states, and ISPs that have markets in multiple states will start to feel the pinch and lose government contracts. Money is a big motivator.

No it wasn't! It was named after Temd's sister!

They still get plenty of product placement in modern movies: See the new Blade Runner movie.
What's the matter with you? Nobody VOLUNTEERS for jury duty...

Buy a Samsung phone. There's *NOTHING* wrong with their batteries...

I thought that was MS-DOS...

That character was based on Billy Mitchell, and even looks more like him too.

Engadget is reporting his time was 5.51 MINUTES. I sure hope that's a speak-o.
It doesn't need to be "hack-proof", just "properly secured".
Now we can call them "Dronesters"!
It looks like a disco ball. I immediately thought it was a Groovitron!

I sure hope it isn't BLU...

That's OK. I'll just filter the advertisements myself on my end.
