I enjoyed D1 until the story ended and I did strikes until my nose bled. D2 seems to be what D1 should have been. D2 should have a polished story line, but doesn't. It's better than D1, though. Other things are certainly annoying. After you complete the quest line, it tells you to basically...

The problem is, if it's a publicly traded company, if the offer MS made was "in the shareholders best interest", then they are pretty much legally required to sell. So far as I understand it, anyway, but I really could be talking out my arse.

Not sure what to do about and vid card now. I won't buy Nvidia, but I'm not an AMD fan. Sigh.

It doesn't matter what the cards can do, I'm not spending more on a video card than I would on an entire new PC build. Period. Until this GPU fiasco is resolved, I'm not building a new computer. If I have to go without, so be it. It's called restraint, heh.

I have built thousands of PC and upgraded/updated tens of thousands, and I never witnessed Win10 installing itself. I have also supported tablets and Windows OS professionally and never seen it. I have had complaints about it, but investigations indicated the user made choices without even...

I'm all about security, as I've seen entire facilities shut down due to peoples lack of concern for it. (One is an employee allowing someone to tailgate into an access controlled area, and they promptly walked off with a PC with PII on it, I was blamed as I was responsible for locking machines...

Then I am glad you are not my administrator. One thing I've learned in 25 years in tech/IT is that no matter how much I learn or think I know, I know absolutely nothing. If you think you can protect a system connected to a network completely, you are sadly mistaken. As far as the sticky...

Guess I'll just have to grow up and get out of the house.

I'm open to it, so long as it doesn't turn out butchered like The Sword of Truth/The Legend of the Seeker...

Quite often, actually. Thing is, I'm not messing with other peoples lives. I've had the misfortune to have gone through real fraud and identity theft. Still paying for it a decade later. I've also worked for a fortune 500 company in IT and saw first hand and example of exactly what you...

Time to go fucking cash only again. No one seems to care this is happening...just provide credit monitoring and people will be ok with it and move on. Why aren't we suing these companies? Why isn't our government going after them? Why isn't there a HUGE outcry from the populous? Just doesn't...

That's another topic...I'm also done testing games for companies for free.

Won't touch the game until it's out and I can read about it first. The first one, while looking good and good mechanics, failed in the story and gameplay for me. I got bored so fast. You can only run so many of the same instances. No, this time I want the potential confirmed first. Not going...

Saw a link someone posted in their FAQ for the lookup: https://www.moviepass.com/register/map?zip=10024

Keeping in mind that this device is not marketed toward the audience here. It's great for those that need reliability such as students and those that just want to have a stable platform that is virus/malware/etc resistant and more difficult for them to flub up. Doing tech support for tablets...

I can't find a source for the article quote either. Most of the world runs on Windows, so yeah, Windows is going to be the most affected. Criminals don't go after the little guys! For those that haven't used Windows 10 S yet, use it and then form an opinion. If you are forming it off of your...

Yup. Follow the money and it was all lead to specific districts that are employing people to build these systems. I'm an avid human spaceflight fan, but this 23Bn boondoggle is beyond waste. Especially a craft that has 0 planned missions. That money could have gone toward a future moon base...

From https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4020089/windows-10-s-faq: Windows RT this is not. Windows on Arm is something else and not related to S. S appears to be a software switch whereas Arm is likely emulation.

A/V reports virus following the link.

Having had this experience as an IT professional myself...urg! Why is our government not doing it's job and going after these corporations with both barrels? I blew the whistle how my company was handling client (and we're talking a TOP fortune 500 client) data. Sending it across borders...

MS has NEVER stated any sort of timed sharing. More then likely, it'll be something along the lines of one person at a time, same as a physical copy. Wish people would understand that the console hasn't been release yet. Everything up until then is just hearsay and speculation. That said...

No doubt eh? But idiots do cost companies, and not-so-stupid people, a ton of money. Gotta protect the idiot from themselves.

In a lock box. Bolted to the floor. Encryption is a joke. Anyone who is in IT and works with it has a back-end workaround. Executives don't accept that the data can't be recovered if they forget their encryption key/passphrase/etc. I recommend people read up on SOX (Sorbanes-Oxley) and...

Companies do this knowingly. They make a big showing that they take it seriously, but they do not. They put policies in place but do not enforce them. When something happens, they point to policies, then to some low IT person and fire them and say "It's all good now, see?" I worked for a...

Where'd you get that from? Article is talking 2012 about a previous outage.
