We’re pleased to announce that starting in August 2024, developers who are not part of an organization managed by an IT administrator can choose to receive monthly Visual Studio security updates through the Microsoft Update (MU) system on “patch Tuesdays”. We dare you
Yes, I've reported on it in the past. But this one includes the Registry key to shut it off.

New global research from secure storage maker Apricorn into the security and storage of data finds corporate information is knowingly put at risk by 55 percent of mobile workers. *Workers* put corporate data at risk. The remote ones just do it in their pyjamas

Yeah, only the workers ever put data at risk. Execs never do.

ExectOS is a preemptive, reentrant multitasking operating system that implements the XT architecture which derives from NT™ architecture. Is this The Year of ExectOS?
Getting in before the official declaration

The NT architecture is unmitigated bullshit.
It itself was sort of inspired by VAX/VMS if memory serves, and to that degree that it is this is 1970s architecture.
Look, I dev windows. There's a lot to like about it, but for god sake, don't keep it going.
Microkernels are where its at. A message passing core is fundamental to making fully connectible operating systems. Something like MachOS or QNX.
Why not refine an OS around POSIX? What the hell is so bad about POSIX? Apple stuff does fine with it.
It's old, but it has withstood the test of time across far more platforms than NT ever has.
Maybe I'm just crotchety, but NT like x86 needs to die, not have its shelf life extended.

The NT architecture has one big commercial advantage - it is running on more PCs (desktop, laptop) than any other O/S. Ditto for the x86 architecture.
I agree that if we started from scratch, we could build a better CPU and O/S, the question being what software would run on them. For commercial reasons, the new CPU would have to emulate the x86 and the new O/S would have to support running Windows in some manner (maybe a VM).
Apple managed to make the transition from x86 to their M-series partly because they paid attention to these points, and partly because they controlled both the hardware and the O/S. I don't see Microsoft developing a CPU, and if they developed one with Intel, there could be anti-trust issues involved.
Windows has been ported to ARM and ARM64, but these are still much less popular (and have many fewer native software titles) than the x86 family.
Like it or not, I expect that we are stuck with Windows and x86 for quite a while longer.

It's one thing for it to endure.
It's quite something else for some chucklef*cks to decide to go and make a completely new OS based on it.

The Biden administration on Thursday will announce plans to bar the sale of antivirus software made by Russia's Kaspersky Labs in the United States, a person familiar with the matter said, citing the firm's large U.S. customers including critical infrastructure providers and state and local governments. Anti-anti-virus

The concern is valid given how paranoid Russia's government has become. The US DoD banned Kaspersky a few years ago from their systems and now it appears the ban will go government wide.

Really surprised this took so long.
|
|
|
|

Me too. Although it may have been a case of building the case against Kaspersky so when they take it to court the US Government has the documentation showing them to be under duress from Russian intelligence services.

You make a few unwarranted assumptions:
- That there is a single Deity that controls our destinies
- That the Deity is that of the Christians
- That "Heaven" and "Hell" actually exist
- That "Heaven" is physically above us, and "Hell" is below us
- That Hemingway ended up in heaven
