CFW’s passport arrived in record time (under 3 weeks!)—the same day as the government shutdown. 
Current plan is that he’ll go to Dublin to meet up with AFW and they’ll go to Paris for a few days just before Christmas, then fly home together. But I just feel better knowing we’ve all got fresh passports.

Got pulled over by the State Boys in Blue last night on the way home after watching the Bruins Game. He looked like he was still in high school. Said I was doing 80 in a 55mph zone which if I’m correct is a 65mph zone. He said don’t do that.  
  
 

Let me go with a verbal warning.

I thought those were belonging to your department. You're showing - once again - how ready you are for a topic's discussion. (Not at all.)
On top, your idea of software security must be utterly vague, if at all existent.

I bet you have a job in software-marketing where cocaine-induced hallucinations are the(!) daily happenstance.

The government running everything? On which type of OS? You must be living in a fantasy...

A solution to me would look like this: Taking software vendors (such as Microsoft, Google & Apple) responsible for their open walls, i.e. security flaws. Of course, this also counts for cloud-based software services of any kind.

You seem to have no idea, how fucking qickly the software market would change then!

It's only a problem if you have a solution.  I'm all for diversifying risk down from 85% market share... just tell me how you want to do it.

At some point, all IT is a national security threat. If the government took over all of the MS government servers... would the security threat change?  Would you feel better with the government running everything?  

I look forward to your insightful solution.

Nothing is verified.  Your last link for Microsoft "failures" was 2 days old...but related to issues last summer.

All else I said can be verified easily via statistics and M$'s policies & tariffs.

I won't argue any further with any happy idiot M$ user, much less corporate or governmental incompetenzo.

Ok, got'ya. This from other voices..

1. Re: XZ Utils (what happened so far without putting it to use for any propaganda, unlike NYT & other media outlets try to do for their sponsors i.e. M$...)
2. Re: Microsoft & the IT security misery which I mentioned (here: only one single latest event, among gazillions of em over time...)

In case you need to know more, you just have to study the subject, which isn't hidden or apocryph at all, as it's all online.


You could have said "I have no idea, but blaming Microsoft just feels good".
