Are We Too Dependent on Microsoft?
  • I don’t think a OS should ever be LESS open about what a user can do.

    I feel blessed when a user can find the power on button.

    all of a sudden we’re saying it should’ve been more like Apple?

    Nope, all I am saying is care should scale with adoption.

    "With great power comes great responsibility"

  • Are We Too Dependent on Microsoft?
  • Much, much more care should have being taken by all parties.

    Microsoft should not have given kernel access to crowdstrike. Crowdstrike should not have being able to push a killing update.

    Edit: Hindsight is 20 20

  • We are a small medical practice. It would cost approx $15k in batteries to give us about 3 operating hours. Not economically viable.

    But do you think something like an airport would have enough diesel capacity to contiune operating in a power out?

  • Are We Too Dependent on Microsoft?
  • Imho. We are too laissez faire about our dependence on computers.

    Currently doing disaster planning for compliance. What I really want to put in the docs is “If power or internet goes down we are just fucked. No planning needed. “

  • Asimov & Analog. Off Amazon, now direct from dell

    Good news for non-America readers.

    I am in Australia and haven't being able to sub since they were only on us amazon.

    Now you can sub directly and get epubs, you also only get charged each issue as well ( instead of a full year )
