Yeah. A lot of malware just lost one of their greatest attack vectors.
It won't be missed.

I had three hours of back-to-back zoom calls scheduled this morning.
I have to say - this is so much less efficient than actually facing the screen.

The opposite of client-facing? :P

Let's not forget the comprehensive Parler leak. ALL DATA. A gold mine for the FBI.
|
|
|
|
|
And Parler required people to post a photo ID such as a driving license to prove their identity if they wanted greater credibility. And many people did.
Oh, can we ever get back to the 1960s?
They say the Zodiac killer (1960s serial rapist/murderer) in the San Francisco area could have been caught if the SF Police Department had a computer to track his crimes. They didn't because computers cost hundreds of thousands of dollars if not a million.

And yet politicians want to outlaw weaken encryption because they figure they're not getting enough data.
Law enforcement used to be able to solve the same crimes that were being committed before the existence of computers, let alone having practically everyone carry one on them at all times and collecting evidence for law enforcement.
I keep saying, they want to solve crimes by typing queries into a computer. To me, the mass surveillance implications are downright scary.
I can't remember what detective show I was watching, but there was always a sign in the background at a police precinct to remind the officers working there to "Go pound the pavement". It's still an option. They just want to make their own lives easier by encroaching into yours.

I am NOT commenting on their political views.
I am wondering how they thought they could get away with it because they cannot be identified in a mob.
There is absolutely no privacy when the Government has got billions of data points on everybody.

Nah, I've had it and I don't wish it on anyone.
Particularly those dumb enough to spread it to everyone around them ...

Let us hope it reaches 10 votes by tomorrow morning.

I believe it only takes 5 votes to close a message; it's 10 to close an account. I was number 5, but I only reported it as "inappropriate".

Finished converting the U.S. Naval Observatory Astrometry software from c and doubles to c# and decimal.
The only calculations the decimals couldn't handle were the speed of light in meters (overflow) and weak gravity calculation (divide by zero). In those cases, had to use intermediate doubles.
So now you know.

Not a compensating scale factor?
