  1. If they want to replace the passwords with this, they really should be free.
    M$ and the rest can certainly afford it.

  2. Not using FIDO2 until on Microsoft Now Lets You Log Into Outlook, Skype, Xbox Live With No Password (cnet.com) · · Score: 2

    Until the devices are free. I am not paying $50 for a device that only exists because people are complete fucking morons about their passwords.

  3. A small, easily loseable device that is $50 isn't cheap.

    I know.
    I was pointing out that I bought it (for really no reason beyond I wanted it), and have left it in my closet for at least a year I think.

    Looked into that one.
    I just do not like pixel art games like that.

    Ahh. Plex
    The same company that wouldn't let me view my library without creating a Plex account first.
    Also, they release something that they would say would replace WinAMP, which was rightfully completely shitted on since it was everything but.

    The Link has been in my closet ever since. Have never used it. TV is to close to the computer, so I ran an HDMI cable.

    They were running a promotion for these with that game.
    Buy the game and get it for $1 plus shipping.
    Honestly bought it for the game. Which turned out to be complete shit. A metroidvania style game that had a great look, great animation, and good audio,
    Too bad it was a shitty narration game with a boring narrator.

  8. Or, you know, fix it. on Retaliatory Cyber Attacks Are Only Way To Stop China, Says Former FBI Director (afr.com) · · Score: 1

    How about the tech companies fixing their shit so this doesn't happen.

  9. Back doored encryption schemes so the pres can arrest anyone who has called him stupid.

  10. Throwing flaming condoms of liquor at people pretending they are NPCs is generally frowned upon.

    That will nuke all but Defender, Edge, and Cortana now
    And you will need to do that every 6 months. Also, delete the contents of C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Shell

  13. That was grunge, which I am pretty sure was a Gen X thing.

  14. They are old, have bad eyes, and bad tastes in music.
    I doubt they even could.

    They would enjoy it too much

  16. This is no surprise.
    They already have adds on the start menu and Solitaire.

  17. So old timer,
    How bad was/is IBM compared to Google and the like now
    Would like a bit of historical context please.

  18. Why limit bandwidth over thru-put?
    Never understood why they care so much about how much data is transfer over the speed of it.

    What exactly.
    I have heard one, maybe two pieces of good news that have come from the FCC since he took over.
    Most of the time it is him listening to the whispers of what the carriers want while getting fuck in the ass by the carrier without the reach around.
    And enjoys every minute of it.

    He is also cheap at $10 an hour.
