Not understanding this story entirely. You just hung up on someone and then they left a bad review. That's what reviews are for, no?

I think the poster is upset about DRM, not paying money. It should be easy to pay and own the content, but nowadays it's not easy. In past I paid for some content multiple times for instance, because one company decides to shut down t

Sounds like you ran a plex server - amazing tech, always makes me wonder what companies like Netflix, HBO, and now Disney spend all their money on... Users would probably be better of, if these systems would be distributed rather then centr

To be fair, this seems not like a mainstream use case... and you can use WSL to read it if you really want to (which seems like an advanced use case anyway). Cross platform FAT32 is the standard and Microsoft made that open.

10 years old and still very immature and a pain to work with... it's all so backwards and I am not sure how many unnecessary lines of error code handling I had to write. Its horrible to read, my takeaway, pick either Java for business

The biggest problem and confusion just is that there isn't a driver. Noone challenges a human for going on a joyride. The fact that there is no driver visible might be a bigger challenge for self driving vehicles and its acceptance.

It took all of 8 minutes from the bug bounty hunter reporting, to Github confirming the finding. That's amazing.

I'd still prefer mfa for important stuff, because two factors are better then one. Since the one thing we know about security is that we don't know or understand it that well, and time works against security engineering.

They arent getting zero, they get the RSUs they were given and which vested. Sounds less dramatic that way. Still, many probably expected more.

Not really, Apple could have just supported running 32 bit apps. Google is pulling similar things in the Play Store. They will pull apps just because they are not 64 bit. They delayed the deadline for a year now, because many developers rea

Well, Chrome is indeed the new Internet Explorer. A new favorite target for threat actors.

Vic Gundotra (VP Google) said back when Microsoft bought Nokia that "two turkeys don't make an eagle". Google officially has become the Microosft of the mid 2000s. Lack of direction and innovation, buying up companies just fo

Wonder if it would be better for Google to focus on something else then GCP as future growth area?

Still remember the picture from the NSA with a line between two Google data centers and the Google frontend terminating SSL and traffic between datacenter being in cleartext. And there was this big smiley face from the NSA on the slide!

Why is this downvoted? If you watch the video it's the outstanding quote from the entire clip. They predicted everything accurately!

Facebook can send the URLs from client to their service, that just bypasses the e2e channel and opens up a nice side channel for Facebook to peek into messages.

Same can be done if e2e is enabled. Nothing prevents Facebook from sending links from client to a "validation" service. They do this already in WhatsApp for instance.

PowerShell is the modern equivalent basically. You can also use it in Linux. But I think it has a bit of a learning curve because not thinking in string outputs is quite different.

Not a very useful article... Take away: Don't invest in businesses that don't have a solid plan to make money. If you bought Microsoft stock in 2017 it doubled. If you bought Snap you lost half of it.

There are many arguments, but Visusl Studio is the best IDE for the last two decades. Same is true for the Office suite. In my current job we don't have either and its utterly frustrating how bad the alternatives are.

Azure has evolved into a mature cloud provider, definently not a bad decision. Although, a bit unusual as we typically see the "noone ever got fired for buying IBM" mentality usually. It shows that Azure is moving up to challenge

The shoe would actually look pretty cool from an artistic point of view. Given the current situation. I'm sure this will not be the last time we'll see that design.
