Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Microsoft today announced the general availability of the Surf game in Microsoft Edge to all users. Previously, this game was only available in Canary, Developer and beta channels. I guess this means all the bugs are fixed (and they've run out of icons to change)?

Yet another article which glosses over GPL and how insidious it is. Microsoft still rejects it.

There’s a story going around the internet about Ebay port scanning its visitors without any permission or even indication that it’s happening (without digging into the browser’s developer tools) - it’s absolutely true. Because if you go to their website, you're obviously untrustworthy?
OK, that didn't come off the way I had thought, but I'm out of brain for the day. Even a vanilla blurb was out of reach. Feel free to write a better one (as y'all often do).

If you portscan me, my firewall blocks your entire subnet in about about 200ms. The block is for one year. I have 1/2 million IP's blocked at this second. Not sure what e-suck thinks they are going to get from this but welcome to my blacklists.
Oh well, the world is full of stupid people.

It is supposed to be a security check to avoid being remoted scammed buying things you are not ordering.
Another thing is, if it really does help as they say or whatever other hidden profit are they getting from it.

It's Javascript running in your browser port-scanning your local computer. I don't think your firewall's going to help.

Building large-scale quantum computers will require suppression of errors. Scientists have used a neat trick to apply powerful 3D error-suppression codes in a 2D architecture, something one industry insider said many thought was impossible.

After translating some of math’s complicated equations, researchers have created an AI system that they hope will answer even bigger questions. And then they came for the symbolic mathematicians and I did nothing, as ... really, who'll notice those folk gone?

Windows Defender already allows users to block Potentially Unwanted Apps or Potentially Unwanted Programs but the new v2004 update will allow users to prevent the installation of unwanted apps that come bundled with genuine app installers. *not including the May 2020 Update
It installed painlessly* here, and I couldn't tell you anything that's changed.
*as painlessly as a Windows update goes, anyway.
