Of course, this directly affects all ISPs, but I'm also curious to see if this will also affect cell phone carriers worldwide. Will they also go bankrupt in time or will they have to adapt to stay relevant? Would cell phines even be able to communicate? Currently no, but in the near future?

It looks like it's being pitched as a competitor to cellular devices.

That'll take a lot of work to get mobile devices able to talk to it. If they can get that cheap and reliable, it'll be the killer thing.

I easily have a few thousand social media identities. I couldn't even begin to tell you what they all are. For example, long before StackExchange or 🌶 I was the top poster on some IT community that I couldn't possibly remember the name of. Am I supposed to track down that product, that identity and divulge it? How? This isn't information that normal people have access to.

Under Armor's MyFitnessPal has been compromised in a breach discovered on March 25 exposing 150 million user accounts.

I wonder if it is a state sponsored breach trying to obtain location data for things that are officially not there.

@penguinwrangler Yes mine had a nice led screen on front with different views for bandwidth, wifi clients, time, etc. But it never got updates.

We need a post that lays out all the reasons why Lenovo is bad. Then we can just link to it. It comes up all the time it seems like.

There is a link to Travis' blog post but his site was down.

Yeah, I got caught in the fun domain renewal and switch dance, gr.

@scottalanmiller not so limited. I do both linux and win devel. Win in vm is a pita so you run win bare metal and use linux in vm. Then you grown bored of setting up samba for sharing between vm and host, fire the vm on 1 screen and have another os in the other screen and so on. Now I just fire wsl from win menu and I go. It is simply more seamless to me.

When you say you develop on both, you develop the same things on both, or different things on both?

I share between systems via GIT.

No I've customers asking for linux stuff and other customers asking for win stuff.

What causes the need for the Samba shares between them, then? Seems like you'd just keep them disconnected.

While all end in a git service (bitbucket) having code sparse in 2 machines and duplicated tools is not something I like. So I prefer to keep eveything in 1 place use 1 editor and share sources/compiled code to run it. With wsl this is smooth and fast. Not having to devel for win would be a big win.

That's what I do, I just don't do Windows 😉

I remember there was a public purchase of the following:

Honestly, it's time for the government to be investigating treason here.

Sadly, Zimbra is an exception.

Oh wait, that's a Lenovo product. That would explain why there is spyware that can't be removed. That totally mimics everything we know about Lenovo. Honestly, FB is the least of your worries there.

Analysis is that the new Apple iPad is not enough to help Apple in the education market.

That would be a good deal 🙂
