In its preliminary ruling, the European Commission has said that there are indications that Apple restricts competition in the mobile wallets market on iOS by limiting access to ‘Near-Field Communication (NFC)' for third-party service providers. Showing once again that they're equal-opportunity litigators

Alphabet Inc.’s Google lashed out at the European Union for doling out a “quasi criminal fine of very large proportions” for allegedly thwarting advertising rivals on websites. Are they disputing the 'almost'?

"Don't be evil." Unfortunately, I know some people who think unmitigated greed isn't evil. They are the same people who think market forces will work those issues out. They never completely learned their history lessons.

A team at Penn State University discovered that user information can be leaked during the fairly common process of companies leaving a public cloud service and their old IP address being handed off to the next tenant. But The Cloud(tm) is secure - they tell me so
Hopefully this link works for people. It does this silly, "checking your browser" thing before showing the page. WTE?

Computer monitoring software is helping companies spy on their employees to measure their productivity – often without their consent "I always feel like somebody's watchin' me"
Yes, I do use that line too often. But then again, it might be called for

The day that someone in my company tells me something that smells like they have been monitoring me... I will quit and look for another thing or try it on my own.

When you don't want to hear something, one easy way to not have to think about it at all is to convince yourself that whoever is saying it is incompetent, or that they have ulterior motives. You don't get $200 for passing it?

A modified VR headset can create the sensation of touch, either on a user's lips or even inside their mouths. At least the kind of kisses that a VR researcher might experience

On the bright side, if that industry went entirely virtual, trafficking would be eliminated. On the other hand, Uungh! Eliminating trafficking more than makes up for that negative. But we are both realists - that will never happen in our lifetimes.

Yeah, I suspect there's no industry more likely to go, "Why not both" (or all ways to make money)

Someday, probably long after this body has decayed, I hope we can look at each other and truly say, "There, but by the grace of God, go I." I'm not religious, and don't believe in that God, if you watch my video, but I still hope for that future.

It is probably safe to say that very few people wonder what will happen if you try to run an old Windows version on a processor that is 233 times slower than the minimum recommended spec. So, nothing's changed then?

I didn't even know that it was possible to run the original Pentium that slow! According to Wikipedia, even the slowest variants could run at 60 MHz. I guess it took some small tricks to set up a board for providing a 1 MHz clock to the chip!
|
|
|
|
|
so.. what about Window 10? 11?
|
|
|
|
|
You could build a mainboard that rather than a 1 MHz crystal has a pushbutton generating clock pulses, so that you could single step, using your index finger, through the boot process at the clock pulse level (that might be even more fine grained than instruction level - I don't remember exactly about the original Pentium).
That way you could make the boot process take years!
(No, I don't think that it would work. I am surprised that the hardware could run even on a 1 MHz clock frequency without running into time dependent issues/problems.)
