FTC: D-Link failed to take reasonable steps to secure its routers and Internet Protocol (IP) cameras, potentially compromising sensitive consumer information You mean admin/password isn't security?
I mean, they probably mentioned in their manual that changing passwords might be a good idea.

There are manuals for routers?!

What, are you saying that you don't love the Help system for HP servers?
Where I am, it works wonderfully -- I mean downloading live content from the Internet (there is no off-line option) is just perfect for air-gapped systems!
Thank Heaven that their management tools, pre-boot options, etc, are so intuitive.

Interpreters are out and native code is in for Google's Python to Go transcompiler, which is designed to replace CPython 2.7. Coming soon: a compiler that uses your Python code to create a custom chipset
There must be some way to get performance out of this!

Today, Razer unveiled what it refers to as "the world's first automated triple display laptop". I don't understand, but I think I want it
Of course, battery life will likely be measured in batteries per minute, not minutes per battery

Powered by a GTX-1080? Yeah, car batteries per minute would be accurate.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

There’s nothing quite like Psyche anywhere else in our solar system—a small asteroid belt object made entirely of iron-nickel metal. The mission name better have a few umlauts in it
Psyche? No, I think not. Ästëröïd Hüntsmän!

From the link: Another very compelling to visit Psyche: space mining.
Anyone else noticed how the gizmodo editor silently slipped in this pseudo scientific scifi bullshit one-liner of their own into the article?

All they need is a rocket, some kind of equipment to get out there, mining equipment that works in almost 0G, and some way to get things back and down the gravity well without burning up. Then profit!

That sounds eerily similar to some of the user stories written by the "business analysts" at my previous workplace. The developers were expected to build software based on such "specifications".
On one of the meetings, a senior developer (he was close to 60 then, and is probably retired now) commented that the specifications might as well say "Hello, have a nice day. Bye!".
The developers and even some of the business analysts in the meeting room laughed out so loud.

Project NEON will heavily focus on animations, simplicity, and consistency – essentially bringing back Windows 7’s Aero Glass and mixing it up with animations like the ones from the Windows Phone 8/7 era. "And at the fall of night, this city's made of light."

So, essentially, the big improvement is blurry screens.
That'll be great for eye-strain and migraine, as everyone autonomically tries to force the blurred words/images into focus.
And the only use-cases given are for a music player that almost no-one uses or wants, and an e-mail app that's full of bugs/problems -- which will never be fixed, of course, because they're too busy inventing ways to make opticians insanely rich.

Maybe the water has been contaminating the weed and the coffee? 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Anyone want to start a poll on how long ARM waits before forcing a rename to protect the trademark on their SIMD[^] hardware, like what happened to the UI Formerly Known as Metro[^]?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The Windows Cmd / Command-Line shell is NOT being removed from Windows in the near or distant future! So, you're saying maybe it might go away?

That would be a positive maybe?
