Awk is a turing complete programming language.

While there is no system for monitoring the companies, experts can reverse engineer the apps and debug the devices. Thusfar, experts who have done this have found no evidence of these types of activities. All the evidence is anecdotal. I believe if this was a widespread practice, evidence would have been uncovered by now and we would have been reported on widely.

The implication here is really scarier than if they were listening to our conversations. It means they do not need to listen to our conversations. The telemetry they already have is so good that in many cases they know what you will say with such high degrees of accuracy that people assumed that they had to be spying on their conversations.

Either way, we need to demand an end to this unprecedented mass surveillance.

I got ISDN from work in 1995. MSN was my ISP for some reason. It was glorious! In FPS shooters I had a 30 ping while everyone else had 200. I was a beast !

Who would buy this and how would they monetize it? In browser ads? A freemium paid model to remove the ads?

How would that work exactly? Google would sell Chrome but keep paying teams if developers to work on Chromium?

Do you have a few minutes to learn about our lord and savior Linux?

Does Fedora have a long term support version? Last time I used it a decade ago I had to upgrade every 1-2 years.

I do not disagree, but I was surprised when it claimed to have consciousness and that AI should have rights.

You should name it Hawk, so people can call it Hawk-Tui.

So is Visual Studio basically dead at this point? Are any new programmers choosing to use it?

Yes, but no.

The source code for Netscape Navigator was open-sourced and has become Mozilla Firefox. The company Netscape is now a mostly defunct brand while Mozilla is a non-profit, public benefit company in service to the Mozilla Foundation, and the Mozilla community.

A lot of great comments here. I just wanted to add that even just your ip address is enough to roughly track your location. When your phone checks gmail you are leaving digital breadcrumbs in Google’s logs of your ip address which roughly tracks your location. App permissions will not solve this. We need strong privacy regulations with teeth.

This seems to me to be a weak substitute for good privacy regulation.

I remember when SFC was first introduced, I excitedly wrote a script to invoke it remotely so I could use it on a user’s pc when they called to fix their problem. To this day I have never run that script. This was in 1998.
