The ozone layer is steadily repairing itself following a drastic global reduction in the use of ozone-depleting substances, the UN's environmental agency has found. China reads headlines as a sign that nothing is wrong.

While working on our Spectrum server, we noticed something weird: the TCP sockets which we thought should have been closed were lingering around. We realized we don't really understand when TCP sockets are supposed to time out! Hello, would you like to hear a TCP joke?

- Hello, I would like to hear a TCP joke
- Are you ready to receive the TCP joke?
- Yes, send the tcp joke
- Here I send the tcp joke

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Hmmm,
Sorry, I think I already sent the joke last week. But I'm not sure.

During last year’s Birthday Week we announced preliminary support for QUIC and HTTP/3 (or “HTTP over QUIC” as it was known back then), the new standard for the web, enabling faster, more reliable, and more secure connections to web endpoints like websites and APIs. We also let our customers join a waiting list to try QUIC and HTTP/3 as soon as they became available. They say the third one in a trilogy is always the worst, but not this time.

On Monday night, Variety reported that film editors around Los Angeles who had Avid Media Composer software installed were suddenly finding that their Macs were unable to reboot. The publication speculated that malware may have been the cause. On Wednesday, Google disclosed the real cause—a Chrome browser update. Firefox FTW!

Microsoft has released an emergency update for its Internet Explorer browser to fix a bug that cyber-thieves are known to be exploiting. Statistically speaking, 8% of you need to know this.

It can't be that much of an "emergency" if they're not pushing it out via Windows Update. How many end-users are going to be able to navigate through the various articles to get to the instructions on how to manually download and apply the patch?
Release Channel: Windows Update and Microsoft Update
Available: No
Next Step: See the other option below.
Release Channel: Microsoft Update Catalog
Available: Yes
Next Step: To get the standalone package for this update, go to the Microsoft Update Catalog website.
Release Channel: Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)
Available: No
Next Step: See the other option above.

Quote: The bug could let attackers hijack a web browser and use their access to install malware, it warned. I thought they were already using the Windows Updates for that
Patches only available for Win10-1903... it looks like another "new feature" got through without testing...
Or are they not patching older systems to force updates?

It's a different KB article for each version of Windows. Because it obviously isn't already complicated enough for normal users.
4522007[^] - IE9 on Server 2008; IE10 on Server 2012; IE11 on Windows 7, 8.1, 2008 R2, 2012, and 2012 R2.
4522009[^] - IE11 on "Windows 10" (presumably the original release, but who knows?).
4522010[^] - IE11 on Server 2016; IE11 on 1607.
4522011[^] - IE11 on 1703.
4522012[^] - IE11 on 1709.
4522014[^] - IE11 on 1803.
4522015[^] - IE11 on 1809.
4522016[^] - IE11 on 1903.
Don't ask what happened to 4522008 and 4522013, or to the patches for Server 2019.

Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize technology, medicine, and science by providing faster and more efficient processors, sensors, and communication devices. Honestly after thinking "debug for me," I can't really think of anything else with this topic.

After all of these years, I finally came to one simple conclusion. With all due respect: we are completely clueless about how long things should take. "How much time do YOU want me to spend on this." That's a little provocative.

Bob Burdett was on a bike ride in Washington when his bike flipped, sending him head-first to the pavement. The impact knocked him unconscious.
But in a case of technology “spying” on us for the better, his Apple Watch detected the fall and called 911. Apple Watch may be kinder than a stranger driving by.

Microsoft is edging closer to its 1 billion goal for Windows 10. The software giant is revealing today that Windows 10 is now running on more than 900 million devices, a significant jump from the previous 800 million figure achieved earlier this year. Like those old signs on McDonalds. Just put up a sign: "Microsoft: We're doing very well."

Apple will make its new Mac Pros in Austin, Texas, continuing to build the computers at the same facilities that have been assembling the prior-generation Mac Pros since 2013. He ain't prejudice he's just, made in America.
