Where MS might be to blame for shoddy design, that "feature" was put there for making updating the BIOS easier for users not overly confident in doing so the old fashion way. Where yes, MS has had issues with their OS, this one indeed was requested by many hardware providers for this purpose. MS is simply guilty for failure to test and secure it. Lenovo is far more to blame as it forced bloatware on to people's computers no matter what they did. You could uninstall it, it would just reinstall after the next reboot. You could format the drive and put another copy of windows on the system and it would then load the bloatware. No need to use their version of OS that way.
It is your, not you. I see nothing wrong with the title. I hope you are being sarcastic. *I*, being a long time reader, knew exactly what was meant. There is a suit that has one pirogi fest against another for using generic terms. What was confusing to you? I would like to help.
It is funny how even the smallest of websites can do this now with little to no issues yet a government run job can't for the life of them figure out how to stop bots from posting.
I seem to remember a story as a child, something about a boy and his pet wolf or something. Oh no, a boy who cried to a wolf? It was so long ago, I am sure this lesson wasn't important at all, else I would remember it clearly.
The sad thing is, anyone who has taken any science class ever would know you don't need an electronic device to bring down an airplane. The right small amounts of chemicals and a way to combine them in flight is all that is needed. Unless the government is going to ban all baggage or anyone who mishandles a bag in the smallest ways from the airport, you will always have a way to do it.
Now that I am on the nofly list, maybe my company will hire a personal driver for me when they want me to go traveling for work.
This is of no surprise I am sure, when Verizon was in VT, they sold it to Fairpoint Communications and I would say 90% of the poles were either held up by 2X4 braces or the wires that run through them
I am curious why Lexmark is on that list. I am lexmark certified, know what I had to do to be that way? Work for a company that has a maintenance contract with them and they are happy to let me fix their shit.
Ok, so I hand in my laptop, it has something not detected that will go boom (honestly, wiring a laptop to meltdown and have some clothing soaked in a light fluid could pass inspection) and then just punching a button on your cellphone... I don't see what this is saving. If *I* can think of this, I am sure anyone else can be and anyone with enough money is already planning. At what point do we say, "Listen, we fly or we die, I take that risk."
If the laptop is lost/stolen after you hand it in to them, will they pay for the lost data and hardware? What about the time on that report you saved for your big job pitch you were planning for months?
The problem with that is, if the election is rigged, Pence and the gang would not be there either. Then you need to look at all the senate races. It will be a nightmare.
I do support MS in this. We should see Apple and any other OS and software makers standing up and saying this. Hardware makers to (Cisco, and the like). People rely on using these tools safely. If the government can't bother to share the info with the software companies, then what are they truly protecting?

Did you know you can buy knives on Amazon? They are about as lethal as black powder (at least in concealable amounts)

Just get everyone drunk, its more reliable than a lie detector.

How do you figure Comcast filling their obligations that THEY agreed to some how the state's fault? Your intellect is truly dizzying.

Lets forget about the fact that it was the government's plan to hack people that caused this issue (WannaCry) in the first place.
