Reason #1 to not install W10. What bullshit. So, besides all the other things it does consuming bandwidth, it now also downloads ads.

That's it: I'll download it only after is has been thoroughly cracked, AND I'll set up an external firewall.

OK, everyone using an insider build you know what you need to do. DON'T turn off the suggested app feature like the article is suggesting. 99.9% of sheeple won't bother if it's released; and MS will eventually use the 99.9% acceptance rate to justify removing the disable feature to shrink the code base. Instead what you need to do is to bomb every app that is advertised using it with 1 star reviews because the developer is a scumbag who is perfectly happy to violate your computer by taking a dump all over your start menu. IF every app that shows up in the program is nuked into 1.1 star oblivion the program will be ended because developers will refuse to participate.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

It has been called the most bizarre star in our galaxy and some think it just might be home to high-tech aliens.
The unlikely suggestion that aliens live in this star system is being taken so seriously that a team of astrophysicists wants to train a radio telescope in its direction to determine if any signals could indicate advanced extraterrestrial life. Step right up and place your bets!

You're right! Thanks for catching that. We've posted a new news item to replace it.

Why? What is it that you think makes our nondescript little planet so special that it's the only place in the entire vastness of the universe where so-called "intelligent" life could evolve?
The real "WTF" would be if we examined every part of the universe and didn't find any evidence of alien life.

I don't think we are alone in the universe. I agree with you.
But I think if we find another civilization, that will end in the extintion of one of us.

Star is not named WTF 001 but KIC 8462852.. Some moron ( fourth element of the universe ) renamed it just to make news line looks more appealing !!!

For years, privacy advocates have pushed developers of websites, virtual private network apps, and other cryptographic software to adopt the Diffie-Hellman cryptographic key exchange as a defense against surveillance from the US National Security Agency and other state-sponsored spies. Now, researchers are renewing their warning that a serious flaw in the way the key exchange is implemented is allowing the NSA to break and eavesdrop on trillions of encrypted connections. Researchers show how mass decryption is well within the NSA's $11 billion budget.

A paper by a team of astronomers is getting some notice because of aliens. Astronomers are looking into the idea that what they’ve found might be due to aliens.

Heretofore undocumented aliens?

Weird. Very weird.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

When is the US Air force gonna invade?!

The Air Force doesn't invade until the Marines have deemed it safe for them.

Two military guys go into a restroom. One is in the Air Force and the other is a Marine. When they are done, the Air Force guy goes to the sink and starts to wash his hands, while the Marine starts to leave.
The Air Force guy yells to the Marine, “The Air Force teaches us to wash our hands.”
The Marine yells back, “The Marines teach us not to piss on ours!”

Aren't there aliens here itself? For example, me - if I come over to the US, I'm termed an alien. And, I've borne that nomenclature several times in my life.

It would be cool if it's an alien civilization constructing a Dyson sphere around their star.
|
|
|
|
|
Then, once their resources are depleted we can swoop in and colonize it.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. I wonder what SETI will pick up.

How anthropomorphic. As if aliens (or galaxies colliding) would smile (or even have the concept of smiling) as we humans do. And besides, smiling is actually a form of baring one's teeth, it's not necessarily a friendly thing!
