I dunno. I think Trump's doing a great job ruining his own chances of being elected the more radical he becomes.
KB 3112336 is for upgrading to Window 10 from 8.1. "This update also improves the ability of Microsoft to monitor the quality of the upgrade experience."
Unchecking that one. The rest of them look okay. There are a couple dumb ones (a mounting issue with Kingston flash drives, and an update to a previous time zone update), but most of them are for security issues. One is for Flash on IE (which would effect anyone on 8 even if they normally use a different browser).
More startled than any other part of the summary by how close the number of fatalities was to a 16 bit signed integer? Maybe God does not play dice with the universe, but he does use ancient hardware.
Yeah, like some old early-90's Pentium, for example.
I actually don't install any of the optional updates not unless it's the update for my graphics card drivers.
What's interesting is how often the Optional Updates disappear on their own. I mean, what happened there? The were 13 of them available one day, and a week later there's only 7 and I never installed any of them. Make me wonder if they were found to be bad and quietly pulled by Microsoft.
Saw that there were several "important" updates available to me last night. I've disabled Automatic Updates, since I can't really trust Microsoft to not try and install Windows 10 behind my back, and instead have Windows Updates a startup item now so I can stay on top of new updates more easily.
Haven't had a chance to go through what's listed there -- doesn't anyone know if there are any I need to be hiding from this batch?
Depends on the state. Here is Kansas if there is more than $1000 in property damage you have to notify the police when it occurs, so that's pretty much anythink more than a small fender-bender with the rates body work goes for.
Well the story itself it a dupe from it's appearance on Slashdot, but this iteration of the story is linked to a recent story in the news. You can write to Mr. Roberto A. Feldman about recycling old news and hoping is bosses don't catch him slacking off.
One feature it still needs is the ability to do it's own updating (like Windows). It's nice it has auto checking and will give a non-intrusive icons when updates are available, but I have relatives that don't notice the update icon and have complained about the updates being too frequent (only complaining because they keep having to run the Update Manager to install them. For level 1 & 2 updates, would be nice if they can just install themselves.
Intel still sells stock coolers for all of their CPU's, they just don't ship with them. Intel coolers are more than adequate unless you are going crazy with overclocking. Intel coolers don't bend Intel CPU's.
Sorry man, you're wrong.
Built my mom a new PC with a Haswell Core i3 and when I was doing burn-in the processor was throttling with the boxed Intel cooler it came with. CPU was running stock and case had decent ventilation.
Switched to a third-party cooler and that went away. Running full-bore for hours and no throttling. Temperature monitor showed a lower core temp, too.
uPNP is on by default on consumer routers, so yes. Most people buying routers can barely plug the thing in without someone telling your how (not an exaggeration). The last thing they can do is set up the necessary port forwarding for their kids' game consoles on their own. Something that makes it "just hook it up and it works" will be used by them regardless of safety concerns.
Can someone remind me, please... why do banks need web sites, when there are ATMs everywhere?
So I can manage my money without having to go to an ATM? Also. it's a whole lot easier to set up automated payments for a biller when I can type the biller's info on a full keyboard.
It's a sign of Corporate America actually acknowledging their employees as human beings and not just "human resource cogs" in their money-making machine. It takes the same time and energy to raise a child whether you're a CxO or one of the 99%. A maternity leave policy that doesn't discriminate on this point is a Good Thing.

Srsly, I'm amazed that some people are clever enough to breathe.
Well they can breathe -- because they defeated that wind farm that was going to be built and suck up all the air!
Don't type like my brother
Which model Brother did you own?

Does it matter what his position is?
Not really. He'll only be the President for one more year anyway.
I was going to guess there was this one weird trick to solve it that PC repair technicians don't want us to know!

I seem to recall Silverlight being a system component your can't remove once your add, though.

That's a very good point.
Weren't the RIAA/MPAA just telling us last year how the majority of Internet traffic was people torrenting (and assumedly pirating media)?
Now the figures say the fast amount of usage is people consuming media legally. Guess pirating isn't the big problem they said it was.

Idiots to the left. Idiots to the right. And no one supporting America's true interest in sight.
This should be a bumper sticker.

Seems like a overblown crisis. If it will take decades to be an issue, I am sure someone will work out...
Ah, the old "meh, let the children figure it out" line.
Like I've never seen this line of thinking when an environmental issue came up...

If he's 15 years old there hasn't been any statistically significant temperature increase in his lifetime. What is he complaining about?
Maybe the mess he will have to deal with over the next 50-60 years of his life?
You misspelled "all companies" and "employees" in that paragraph.

Sounds like Zuck made a mistake talking about his own leave, and caused some complaints in the company.
Yo dawg! I heard you had a little setback...
It's so when your drone does $terroristaction they know were to send the SWAT team.
Not that they'll be verifying these addresses, of course.
