Security to play flash content?  Really?
After all, there is no software, which is crack proof. But the guy made his fortune.

Great news about that new nova in Sagittarius. It's still climbing in brightness and now ranks as the brightest nova seen from mid-northern latitudes in nearly two years. "Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like"

So when Win 10 finally dies the computer world will start living ?
|
|
|
|
|
So, Win10 will attempt to download a few GB to update to Win11 when it is that time?
Over the 3G network with a limit of 5Gb? That sounds like a real "great" idea

Wouldn't it be better for them to keep their ISO's up to date, so when you want to re-install and go and grab the ISO it has the latest updates?
This seems really messy in comparison!

Win8.1 from the app store does do that already. I had to download a cluster-elephant of 8.0 patches first to unlock it; but once I did the 8.1 update I pulled a week ago had everything except .net and a few assorted drivers fully up to date.
And the 8.1 disk install asked to DL some extra before starting; but I clicked the wrong button and decided against risking something going wrong by restarting it after realizing my mistake. I'd assume that means it fixed them too, but am not sure.
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?

A team of researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill have developed a new 3D printing process that may be fast enough to change the tide for 3D printing. "It combines the technologies of the transmogrifier and a photocopier"

Microsoft has reportedly confirmed that while pirated versions of Windows 7 and 8 with non-genuine licenses can be upgraded to Windows 10, they will not be upgraded to a genuine license. So... I get Windows 10, but it's not really Windows 10? Is it Windows 1O?
|

|
|
Nope that is a Windows ten.

Security mavens bracing for Thursday's scheduled disclosure of a high-severity vulnerability in the widely used OpenSSL crypto library need wait no longer. It's a bug that allows end users to crash servers running one version of the software by sending data that's relatively easy to duplicate.

The company oversold the wearable too soon and learned some lessons. Start (noun): the point in time or space at which something has its origin; the beginning of something.

Does he mean that they should have oversold it a little later?

An informal survey of programmers finds that the most important quality in good software source code is that it be easy to read and understand. Did no one survey the Perl and APL developers?

The developers stand for, Martin Fowler[^], who says:

Really? No! Who would a thunk it!
Talk about stating the bleeding obvious.

Huh... I would have went with "that it correctly performs its intended function(s)" but... to each, their own.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.
