Don't tell competitive gamers that. LOL, CS, Overwatch, COD whatever is about a simple game loop for those who enjoy that loop.

Australia just hopes the countries who handle the waste from the uranium we sell don't you know make nuclear weapons with it. You know they're good allies they wouldn't do anything with that right? They certainly would never enrich the original..

I'm in my late 30s from Australia, now you don't need to ask. G'day

Perhaps an anime with an ex-cop, ex-yakuza, a corgi, a young hacker, a gambling thief fugitive, and possibly the best intro and music in anime?

Which will be "If not Windows 11 or Mac os then report os string". I don't think they specifically took the time to research different OS's and list them.

You're right, this is a great services for predators to register.

Tbf not that hard to increase waste by 25%. Just think of how a new staff takes a long time to do easy work, causes rework, and generally sucks up the time of the people around them until they get the experience and skills they need to do that job.

That's the micro scale, but in a macro scale it's the same. Cause more waste, and not only will the money matter less, the public interest will be deteriorated and the entire foundation compromised.

Actually just check out the history of CIA ops around in foreign countries. Consider how many of those countries end up with a high inflation rate and that currency becomes more worthless in a deathspiral.

I think it's not a single factor like "it's orchestrated by state nation x" but I fully believe if the US is going to make itself weak then those countries like potentially Russia or China will take full advantage of it and offer a helping push. They'll do it subtly. So it's hard to see. But it's just standard politics, and it would be insane to think they won't take full advantage of a situation.

Enterprise applications are often developed by the most "quick, ship this feature" form of developers on the world. Unless the client is paying for the development a quick look at the sql table shows often unsalted passwords in a table.

I've seen this in construction, medical, recruitment and other industries.

Until cyber security requires code auditing for handling and maintaining PII as law, mostly its a "you're fine until you get breached" approach. Even things like ACSC Australia cyber security centre, has limited guidelines. Practically worthless. At most they suggest having MFA for Web facing services. Most cyber security insurers have something but it's also practically self reported. No proof. So if someone gets breached because someone left everyone's passwords in a table, largely unguarded, the world becomes a worse place and the list of user names and passwords on haveibeenpwned grows.

Edit: if a client pays and therefore has control to determine things like code auditing and security auditing etc as well as saml etc etc, then it's something else. But say in the construction industry I've seen the same garbage tier software used at 12 different companies, warts and all. The developer is semi local to Australia ignoring the offshore developers..

Can't agree more.

I'll add, from a organisational risk perspective, a government should ensure its not locked into reliance on corporations. There's certainly an assumption especially in the government's I work in, Microsoft 365 has no viable alternative. Yet that itself should be warning for the ACSC or signals directorate invest in open code such that if the provider aligns with a country you change positions on, you can fork your code, tender off its continued support to new maintainers, and continue on.

Well, I know that ultimately nobody will get in trouble even if fears became reality. Everyone will put up their hands and say "we couldn't see this coming and we had no alternative so there's nothing that could have been done to prevent it.". It's just a disappointment that it becomes a missed opportunity for taxpayer investments to be invested, instead of lost to corporate fees straight overseas.

That's why your school got it for pennies.

That's why Apple sells at near cost to schools.

Walk into the garden, don't mind the walls, enjoy your stay, you won't want to leave.

My caption to this could have been "A self fulfilling prophecy".

"Starry night" on one side, "the scream" on the other. But only if you can get the number plate "Van Go".
