An Australian telescope examined a huge patch of the sky for signs of life. It came up empty-handed. So, you're telling us they have cloaking technology?!

If the other theories about the universe are true... it is like saying:
there is no technology in earth, after scanning some hectares in the amazon jungle or in the Sahara desert.
Only because you don't see something, it doesn't mean there is nothing.

Any advanced civilization would start using Dyson Spheres asap. Probably an alternative explanation for the missing/dark matter.

Maybe they are smart enough to realise that cloaking technology is not such a bad idea after all.

Desktops, laptops, tablets and mobile devices aren't being protected well enough, Kaspersky claims. In other words, nothing's changed

But they have shiny new icons and are bloated with domain directives and restrictions that interfere more than help (at least in many cases)

Perhaps you are a skilled technologist. But beware: If your personality is as scintillating as a dish rag, you could jeopardize your open source projects. INTP is from merge, ESFJ is from versioning
OK, I couldn't quite get those two to sound enough like Mars and Venus. I turn it over to y'all as I'm apparently extra-fail today.

Only John Carter could take an a*****e open source project on Mars and make it work on Venus. Seriously, we should all go out and watch John Carter again! Screw the critics!
I don't know that this post has much to do with the topic (Mars/Venus/blah blah blah), but a plug for John Carter is always a good thing!

Personality affecting the way you do things... what a surprise.
And they need a study for that?

They are going to need a follow-up for sure, to see why you are surprised.

Comprised of 3,200 megapixels (MP), the image was captured using an array of 189 imaging sensors that are being developed to be integrated into the world’s largest digital camera that is currently under construction at SLAC. It's a really detailed photo of the researcher's thumb

..i.
It is not a thumb, but I think it might be an option too

Following a roller coaster ride in popularity during the past few years, C++ is now the fastest-growing language of the programming pack, according to TIOBE's September index. Is that based on the size of the language spec document?
Yeah, sorry. Monthly random numbers from TIOBE. I'm addicted. Someone send listadone!

Everyone's finally catching on to the fact that it has a +11! (Only a few years late - bum tish!)

97% of the leading cybersecurity companies have had their data exposed on the Dark Web in 2020, with over 160,000 high or critical incidents that may jeopardize their clients. This news brought to you by the other 3%

Microsoft recently made a change to Windows 10’s built-in antivirus software ‘Windows Defender’ or ‘Microsoft Defender’ that will warn you when you manually try to block telemetry data by editing HOSTS file. I'm sure they have HOSTS of reasons

Yeah, it's a severe financial security risk for them!
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Obviously this is about the 0.001% of people who use windows while waging war on microsoft; and not about malware that tries to block all communications with MS in the fear that something sent back might tip off the people behind windows defender.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

'struth. I just wish they were a little more proactive about announcing these things. By locking down, then reacting when people complain, they look guilty of shenanigans. If they said, "Here's what we're doing and why" beforehand, that 0.01% might even accept it.

Specially crafted Windows 10 themes and theme packs can be used in 'Pass-the-Hash' attacks to steal Windows account credentials from unsuspecting users. It's hardly surprising: they are so directly interconnected (ugh)
Do people actually change their theme anymore?

When one of the main focus is "icons"... what do you expect?
How many of your own posts have been related to hard to believe problems due to idiotic ideas?
But... as you say, hardly surprising anymore. Coming from MS I now believe almost everything.
