No, but HyperV is used extensively in the SMB space.

VMWare is popular for a reason, but its also insanely expensive if you only need an AD server and a file share.

If this figure is accurate, the massive impact was likely due to collateral damages. If this took down every server at an enterprise and left most of the workstations online, then that still means that those workstations were basically paperweights.

Not only does password rotation not add to security, it actually reduces it.

Assuming a perfect world where users are using long randomly generated strong passwords it’s a good idea and can increase security. However, humans are involved and it just means users change their passwords from “Charlie1” to “Charlie2” and it makes their passwords even easier to guess. Especially if you know how often the passwords change and roughly when someone was hired.

Ideally, your users just use a password manager and don’t know any of their credentials except for the one to access that password manager.

If they need to manually type them in, password length should be prioritized over almost any other condition. A full sentence makes a great unique password with tons of entropy that is easy to remember and hard to guess.

Im thrilled that this movie is starting to get the cult following it so desperately deserves.

It’s hard to argue that this movie is good in the traditional sense, but it’s definitely unique and that counts for a lot with genre filmmaking.

This is one of those weird things that venture capital does sometimes.

VC is is injecting cash into tech right now at obscene levels because they think that AI is going to be hugely profitable in the near future.

The tech industry is happily taking that money and using it to develop what they can, but it turns out the majority of the public don’t really want the tool if it means they have to pay extra for it. Especially in its current state, where the information it spits out is far from reliable.

Those cops were simply afraid that they might also have violent pictures of them drawn.

On one hand, hosting content online isnt free, so there should be some form of subsidization to offset that. But I feel like selling my privacy to massive firms so that they can analyze my habits to serve me ads about things I would be statistically more likely to buy is a bad solution to this problem.

I dont have a good fix, as the only 2 alternatives that seem to show up are paid subscriptions and decentralization. Which are both useful options, but not one that fits all cases.

The best solution to this that I’ve seen was a system where the lighter was hanging from a string on a hook in the ceiling.

It had enough slack that it could reach the couch and table comfortably, but no one would absent mindedly pocket the thing.

Roddy Piper was the best wrestler turned actor and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Both this movie and They Live are incredible.
