I have a x220 with an adjustable screen. I broke the screen and the battery can't hold a charge. The power button cover is messed up. No hard drive cover. Last I looked up the screen install was complicated and expensive. Probably take

Huh, I found this interesting, "Because the agents couldn’t bypass Malik’s password, they sent the phone to a forensics lab, which extracted all the phone’s data.", I wonder how they bypassed his password unless it wasn't ful

This reminds me of the 360 live stream camera by Microsoft Research which also died. Not many products made by Microsoft Research seems to ever be commercially fruitful.

Got to see this happen day by day on the Midwest Venture Partners Slack. There was another lawsuit Chappman and Tom did for laser based speed detection in Chicago.

It was just an example, but you can read the DCSA appeals page to find worse illegal stuff that has been adjudicated: https://doha.ogc.osd.mil/Industrial-Security-Program/Industr...

People often lie yeah. The polygraph has been proven to be pseudoscience and the tactic of we know you're lying about x to get you to spill the beans is common knowledge now. Heres the DCSA clearance appeals page showing people getting

I mean OPs post is whataboutism. What if the kid has skeletons in his closet or calling the kids randomers etc. The security clearance process is long and is a joke imo. DCSA often gives interim clearances after running a credit and crimin

I went thru the TS/SCI w/FSP for a 3 letter top tier agency and it was a joke. They interviewed my mom, sister, old coworkers/bosses and old teachers. Then just asked me normal questions. They asked my mom and boses normal qu

Well, I mean China already pwned opm.gov and got SF-86 on all fed employees a few years ago. The FBI gives people who have clearances on how adversaries will attempt to get information and what to do. Mainly it's just alerting the empl

Many former hackers have been hired by the government with TS clearances and it's ridiculous to compare teenage hacker groups to violent street gangs. I told an agency of previous hacking stuff and they were more concerned with me admi

I meant price wise. VTI is almost $300 per share.

I switched from VTI to ITOT, because Vanguard's actions recently have been drifting away from it's founders. This inspires confidence, but I'm still wary. VTI is too expensive compared to ITOT. Fidelity doesn't have any
