Just talking is enough to activate the recordings – but thankfully there's an easy way of hearing and deleting them. Don't be creepy

Well, they have read our mails and documents for years, so why not voice recording too.

Microsoft's push to update existing Windows 7 and 8.1 users is now becoming a shove, according to a new report. "One way or another, I'm gonna win ya"

Feeling more and more lucky to have turned off wupdate. 
It really simplify the w10 begging/nagging popup.

Why not monitor programmer stress levels to discover when things are getting tricky and take bug avoidance measures? Add an extra wire for shocks (for exceptions)

Microsoft Research is working on a system, dubbed Platypus, that can detect a human’s location and identity inside of a building. Hopefully it isn't equipped with a poisonous spur
But really: what happened in Australia to make even the cutest little furballs so toxic?

The researchers spotted that the exploit was being advertised on a Russian hacking forum last month, and the seller who goes under the nickname “BuggiCorp” is currently selling it for $95,000. This is why we can't have nice things anymore

A month after Microsoft ceded the No. 1 browser spot to rival Google, Internet Explorer (IE) and Edge hemorrhaged user share at an astounding rate, data released today showed. If you don't use IE, how are you going to know how it's going to break your page?

I wonder how Microsoft will respond to this challenge?
Could we fault fault that as well on the Synofsky-Balmmer Duo-Debacle?
|
|
|
|

I predict they'll try to move Edge to a more Chrome/FF-like upgrade cycle, with new releases coming out faster (and likely without user input). Not that I think that will help much. Once users are trained to ignore the big, blue e, they're not likely to return.
As for Balmer/Synofsky - maybe. I think they've had the problem a few times thinking IE was "done". IE6 was the worst culprit, but 10 also seemed to be a pause. Having it part of Windows certainly didn't help them respond at Internet speed.

At the time I thought IE 6 was great. Then Firefox came along and that made me think there was more to browsing than what IE 6 offered. Since then we've had Chrome and so on. I'm currently running six browsers, including IE and Edge.

Save that headline.
You just have to replace the word "browser" with "Windows" in the near future.

The Amazon founder and CEO said that we have to start bringing parts of the industrial economy to space in order "to save Earth." Can I still get free two-day shipping to that industrial zone?

I have this glorious pocket super computer with me now. It connects to all the world's collected knowledge, has an advanced battery, radio transmitter, and so much more. But most people have no idea how it works. Who knows, who cares. Have you seen the latest iPhone?

Yeah. Kids don't aspire to be sports heroes or rock stars in the droves we were accustomed to for what ever reason. It sure seems to coincide with the mobile internet though.
After 6 years of running a studio at my house the kids didn't seem like they were in bands like they were before.
Old guys with "one last shot" and the fussiness to go with started filling the vacancies. I'm an old guy too but because the 50 sames rarely have band buddies they wanted me to help them with their music. And not at scale you can bet.
I said nuts to that.
Kids today. Won't sit up straight at a desk and use PCs anymore either. That really $%^&ed up a lot of things in a bloated industry.

It's all about reality TV now, the race to the bottom. We really should stop rewarding stupidity.

If you had to know how it worked before you used it any technology from any point in history would fail, wouldn't it? I don't imagine television would have got very far into our culture if you spent more time with the back off staring at the valves than in front watching the actual programming!
