I suspect that the real reason for this change is to ensure that Windows gets updated even if the laptop is sleeping, and that this is a change that enterprise customers have asked for. In the past where a computer would be connected to the

My large company certainly doesn't. Oh, don't get me wrong - I have two, but they're for accessing different resources! If I lose one, I lose access to those resources until I can get a new one shipped to me. Can't bu

I have a (completely overkill) Ubiquiti Dream Wall that lets me VPN in using WireGuard. I do have a Raspberry Pi that runs (among other stuff) a script to ping a service on hosted server that keeps a dns entry updated in case my IP address

CSAM material existed long before the internet existed and it will continue to exist no matter what laws or "technical solutions" you come up with. E2EE simply is another way sick people try to avoid detection. Just like most peo

That's not true. Baby teeth have developed by birth although they don't start to emerge until around 6 months. Adult teeth don't start developing until birth.

Public transit in Oslo has only recently reached per-pandemic levels. I don't know what the overall numbers are, but I know that some employers have mandated return to office (at least 3 days a week). My employer has not mandated tha

Your own links contradict your claims. The US is higher than some developed countries and lower than others. When looking at tobacco, you're doing a disservice to exclude smokeless tobacco products, which would significantly increase

It's been 35 years they've discussed that possibility. It's never going to happen. The costs of high speed rail across the mountain are simply too high.

Sounds like it's really only AT&T. Most likely somebody screwed up a configuration change and took out a lot of capacity.

Doubtful. Rather every fault they find is something they don't have to fix later on. In any event, having their own people monitoring seems like a win-win overall.
