I absolutely must have one program on Win 10. Updates to either the program or OS that disrupt my work is not acceptable under any circumstances.
The final solution for me is drastic, but works: Once the OS is installed & updated once, my key program is loaded and then the Win machine NEVER goes back on a network again.
Data goes in & out via USB key over to a Mac. If I actually needed Win10 to run on that machine on a network it would be on a separate boot drive, but I hate the thought. High security military development runs similarly,... well sort of.
Good predictions into the future today on "climate change" seem to ignore longer term cycles from the past and what caused them.
In none of what I've read has anyone seemed to factor in what happened in the 1600s-1700s in the little ice age which correlated with the long term reduction of sunspots (as seen by Galileo with his new telescope.) How often does this recur and why?
Making these decisions is just rapacious behavior & FB runs the risk of users just melting away. It won't happen until it takes money right off the bottom line in their quarterly reports, though.
"... Because we need everything to be new & better & faster with "more connections" so we can keep collecting fees for the new exciting version xyz.12b23 and keep our income coming in... "
It is a crock. We don't need more than a few standard features to run business.
Well, if senior management of companies must be responsible for failures, then senior management in Government must be responsible for not protecting our borders as specified in the Constitution.
Deliberately letting in criminals and terrorists because they don't want to fund the defense of the border should be punishable by prison time. Sounds good to me.
After all, we have only been talking about this in earnest for decades.
The interesting way the roughly 1700 Seattle earthquake in Washington State was confirmed was that the sediment dating in the state of Washington corelated that data with the "tsunami without a quake" which arrived in Japan without any warning. The Japanese thoroughly recorded that tsunami.
People seem to have forgotten the 1923 earthquake and FIRE that destroyed Yokohama and a quarter million lives, without even a hint of a tsunami!
It was around 7am and people getting breakfast off of wood or coal fires in the homes leading up the hill from Yokohama bay. The quake hit, upset all the cooking fires and lit the upper reaches of the hill on fire and the Westerly winds blowing over the top pushed the fire... and people who survived down toward the bay.
Unfortunately, the major industrial port's fuel tanks burst covering it with fuel and oil which quickly lit off when the windborn fires reached the bay and very few people survived. The photos taken by local photographers just after the ashes cooled made Yokohama look almost exactly like Hiroshima after the nuclear bomb. I have a two volume set of books summarizing the events.
Yokohama harbor had about a 9.5 foot elevation change after the earthquake in some areas. This is a similar elevation change to what was detected in the Seattle area after an earthquake in the early 1700s before westerners populated the area. It is predicted to hit again. Good reason Amazon is looking for another location!
In other words, there are a whole lot of ways to destroy a city in & after an earthquake and then isolate people after the earthquake when the ground elevation changes wipe out roads, bridges, trains, etc.
How on earth can we keep proprietary data, trade secrets, etc. on a Windows machine that would obviously have to connect to the Internet most of the time?
Right now I have a Win 10 laptop for all proprietary designs that has been on the Internet only 2 times.
One was as new to update Windows just prior to
Loading my 3D CAD design program on it. It will NEVER go on the internet or any other network every again.
What possible reason would I ever have to use anything beyond Win 10?
Bore through the Atlas Mountains to re-establish the inland sea that use to be there 6000 years ago. Would re-create rainfall in the western Sahara and add countless farming & fishing jobs.

Not funny. Not in my garage.
Google could have been charging for Picasa & THEN shut it down.
There are lots of random, short online puzzles that are challenging on time.
I have one I like and if it takes me more than 5-7 minutes, I know it is time for a brisk walk.

Win downtime = zero minutes per year.
I have no time left for BS.
Using that word in the title implies released into the wild, which is a headline grabber.
Let's get real.
Like, how long does it last, and, oh by the way, how much will they charge for a dose?

The current lack of sunspots does make me wonder.
That is the only logical conclusion.
The bastards who set up the online systems have only partially thought out security.

Ever heard of the Rube Golberg OS, aka Windows?

Inquiring manufacturers want to know.
No details, you say? Hmmm, sounds then like another pyramid scheme.
Call me when any of the major car companies adopt the cells.
That is when you know for sure that independent testing in both the lab and in the field has deemed them both safe and long lasting.
Until then, it is just more hype ... or worse ... a scam ala Theranos
Getting a terrific lightly used MacBook Pro which is highly usable for 1/3rd the price of new is easy.
Apple & Amazon's decision is just going to put more items on eBay and result in EVEN BETTER pricing.
I've lost respect for people who use "easy" cloud services.
You don't just "walk in" and take over a huge market.
Who lost the most money in this?
Capacity, Cost & Safety. If the reasearchers can prove superior results on these points it is a go!

Then claim the janitor did the code.
