A good read. Again, imagine such a government in charge of universal basic income distribution and the majority of 'citizens' dependent on that. Not a bright future.

Yep that was my experience as well. I have yet to experience a crash with the public beta though. Now 3 weeks before launch something as basic as autopilot is also not working well.

I have to agree with not knowing sometimes what is clickable. I have that problem now in Windows 10 UI, such as in the settings app. Often the text is clickable but that is not immediately apparent. This is a flaw in their design imo.

Microsoft probably could not have chosen a better developer to continue work on Flight Simulator. Incredible work by Asobo. I was very impressed with the quality of the alpha back in february. It felt more like a beta. Unfortunately it does

Nothing proves that comic more than the current covid-19 'pandemic' which is largely based on fear and BS (bad science). The doctors and scientists that actually make sense get censored into obscurity while sensational and fear ag

A very good example of how bad and wrong things can go with governments is comparing what the founding members of the USA fought for, with the status quo. Basic rights that they fought for back then are almost completely gone today, includi

UBI is extremely dangerous as long as governments exist. Take what China is doing with their citizen score and it's not hard to imagine what could go wrong. "...imagine how easy it would be for such a government that was also prov

Thanks for the link. It seems the implementations are already improving. From the posted benchmarks it looks like it got twice as fast, which is still slow for some use cases (like ephemeral use for forward secrecy) and slower devices. The

With Classic McElice, at least right now, the computation time for a keypair is a bigger problem than the size of the public key. It will get faster with better implementations and hardware use. But now it takes many seconds on a Ryzen 9 39

These hackers are clearly amateurs. If you're going to post crypto scams on hijacked Twitter accounts you can't NOT include John McAfee's account. Seriously.
