It's coming to the rest of the country soon. My employer has already sent many of their employees to work from home though they've never had a work from home policy and very few exceptions to the rule. As the continuing jokes goes

They've done this in Illinois too. What's happened is people are self-isolating to prevent the spread even though government is pleading with them to do so. So, they're having to force the issue. If people still don't ge

The problem is that the 20% or so that end up in severe or critical condition and need hospitalization are too much for the medical system to handle. The more they can slow the spread the better they'll be able to help all those that w

Or someone marketed the software to Turkey as a great way to increase their IT skill set as a country. Borland was awesome back in the day (at least in my opinion) but what Embarcadero has done with the software in years recent is a travest

It's less about Apple here and more about the government forcing their control. Apple, Microsoft, and many other companies have gone to congress to try and keep them from controlling encryption. At the end of the day they're a com

It's also much cheaper than LastPass. I was going to convert over to BitWarden the last time I was up to renew LastPass but that means I also have to retrain my family on how to use it. I'm gunning for sometime in the next year th

I'm an iOS user that moved from Android. I'll never go back to Android as my phone OS. With that said, Android has a lot to offer that makes it worthwhile. It just depends on what you're looking for. Thought the number of peo

I'm missing something, I think. What's the big deal with CHIP-8? I'm starting to see people using it as a programming challenge and I guess I don't understand what the big deal is. Is it just a fun project or something?

I think it's because there are health risks associated with most if not all forms of it. Some forms may have small health risks though. Really, they don't want to pay out the money for high health insurance anymore. I don't b

Their categorizations are crowd sourced. Are they classified under something you've chosen to block? For example, torproject.org is classified as a proxy/anonymizer. This is something people that filter networks would want to bloc

Something I was impressed with recently is LG and their opt in collection policies. I was able to not opt in to most of their advertising and data collection policies and only the features that required that data collection were disabled, e

The only way Amazon is going to fix it is if it costs more to leave it as a problem than it will cost to fix it.

You make a good point and yes, it seems that other governments would do very good to eject U.S. products from their governments too. Both Russia and China are working on just that. China is pushing Microsoft Windows out as much as possible,

While PDF is supposed to be an open standard I'm noticing more and more functionality in PDF files that isn't supported by readers who implement the open standard. I have project right now to find out why Adobe and Chrome are so d

The name doesn't make it religious though, it's the people that celebrate Christmas and their use of Saint Nicholas/Santa Claus/etc.

Though he was a saint the symbology has been non-religious for some time. It's not just Christians that celebrate with Santa. In fact, most of the non-religious people I know celebrate with Santa. Even when you tie it to a saint the ov

Python today is what BASIC was in the 90's and earlier. Though, Python is obviously a lot more powerful but so are computers in general.

Does VB.NET count? I code in that all the time but only because my employer makes me. I still break out the QBasic once in a while. I have it in DosBox for when I get the itch. In AppleWin I toy with Applesoft Basic. I also play a bit with

Honestly, sensational headlines like this are why so many people have a difficult time buying into climate change. If the media would present it as it actually is then I think more people would get on board.

There is a recent post discussing the idea that AMD Phenom processors are unfairly disadvantaged because they do not support SSE3 and modern games are targeting SSE3/4.2. I think that's what this post it trying to point out. I rea

Thankfully, I don't have to worry that much about it. My only concern is that they don't keep logs and that they're not automatically updating and loading my PC with malware. Though, if PIA ever put malware in their installer

This is the same PR blabbering that occurs with any acquisition. It means nothing just like any other. I’m cancelling and changing providers. Does anybody have recommendations?
