I'm 35 years old and can never remember the world being different that 'if you leave something out, it will get stolen'. But still, somehow, there is a subset of commentators in this thread that aren't aware that it only

Most dealer trade offers are so low because they don't even keep your car on the lot, they sell it at auction...at wholesale prices. That is a lot different than individual sales...which is how this service sells your car. So yeah, yo

How cool would a partially-intelligent virtual secretary be? We could all focus more on the work and let VS handle the scheduling and minutiae according to our priorities.

I imagine this service had a low adoption rate and is costing Canonical money at a time when Mark is putting all his eggs in the phone/pc convergence basket.

My conclusion does not stem from articles. It comes from actually using it next to 7, doing the same user and admin tasks I usually do. Without third party software to reign-in Metro it dominates and cripples the experience for a PC use c

If you are talking about built-in Defender being the tipping point to compel you to move to Windows 8 from Windows 7... That is a non-reason, reason. MSE is 100% free and the same damn thing. The phishing filters and other BS is part of I

Google and others[Telecoms] are in positions to collect rents on your PI from third parties and G.O.'s. When they[Google] recently learned that the NSA had tapped their unencrypted fiber lines between data centers, they were pissed. N

So the access providers will change their behavior on the basis of your serious doubt? Will they add new infrastructure and absorb that cost without price increases? Netflix's issues with ISPs is actually a counter example to my positi

The experience is laggy, as the top reply suggests. Your users which aren't doing much[should they even have their own box anyway? (No)] won't notice, but people who actually use the box[I was a quant in a former life] will hate

The network is what kills this idea before it leaves the womb. Everyday ISPs/Content Providers are constricting the pipes more and more. All the physical equipment and meatspace savings from this will vanish[shift rather] and the netwo

The sociopathic CEO stereotype is affirmed once again. I look forward to the coming Apple/Google/XXXX apologists vs. Lucid observer comment war.

This is what came to me first. I have unrestricted physical access? I probably own the machine. If the data on the storage is not encrypted, I own that too. If I don't want to disassemble anything, I just plug in a liveUSB and it'

People can still keep using XP for as long as they want as long as they keep the machine physically disconnected from the internet! The big risk is remote exploitation[most of the time].

Can we all finally accept the fact that what is most needed now is not a new whizbang but a comprehensive review of all of the core pieces of software that we depend on as a base for making new whizbangs? How many critical and ancient bugs

Facebook can only grow ad revenue by purchasing it's competitors[who ironically swore to never be Facebook] now. WhatsApp has a large pile of users to make money from before they jump ship after Facebook is done alienating them all.

Seize it all now and justify it[or not] later. Makes sense. Maybe we should all just go to jail now and wait to see if the government finds a 'lawful' reason later for us to be there. "Strength through unity. Unity through
