SUSE and Microsoft have the longest running partnership between Linux and Windows. Here's where they've been, where they are now, and where they're going tomorrow. According to sources, .NET Core and the Microsoft R Server for big data will be available on SLES and on SLES on Azure, AWS, and Google Compute Engine.

Oath, the Verizon-owned parent company of Yahoo, is releasing for free some of its most important internal software, which the company has long used to make recommendations, target ads and execute searches. Let me Vespa that for you ...

Thanks, but I'd rather Lambretta it.

There's a bug in the latest version of Internet Explorer that leaks the addresses, search terms, or any other text typed into the address bar. You mean the one where someone looking over your shoulder sees what you type?

That would be yet another great reason to use Edge, then.

People are still using Internet Explorer?

Yes...
Chrome not allowed and FireFox so reduced by the IT and GroupPolicies that I don't get the Popup to choose what/how I want to paste something here, or the auto clickety-links when urls are pasted. Or can't execute the plugin for Skype on Web and things like that. Heck the other day I even had problems opening a pdf of the internal wiki...
So yes, for many things I have to use IE
M.D.V. 
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.

Another yes  I even had a bug recently that was only bad in IE (imagine that). Management complained that I "didn't test it in all browsers". I held back the, "I did test in useful browsers."

Such a space station would orbit the Moon and allow for an environment to prepare for crewed missions deeper into space than those attempted before. Just don't call the station Alpha, you know what happens then

Was the lunar base named 'Alpha' in UFO? I was 11 when it was on, and I don't remember.

It wasn't per se mentioned as Moonbase Alpha, but it contained SHADO moonbase (NATO only) and at the end of UFO Stryker is negotiating with SHADO financial supporters to build another international base (presumably the Moonbase Alpha). That should have been a plot of UFO 2, which developed into Space: 1999. So a mention. It doesn't matter really. I'm just glad somebody remembers these shows

My memory of UFO is fairly dim. I have Space: 1999 on DVD. It's a tad painful to watch in places (mainly the 2nd season), but still fun.

In my opinion was UFO a bit better, more energetic, more fresh and more action packed and also.. Straker. Space: 1999 was more like ST:DS9 to UFO's ST:TNG. That's how I see it at least.

The new desktop client is a complete overhaul of the original GitHub desktop client, rebuilt from the ground up on Electron, GitHub’s open source framework with the JavaScript backend and the Chromium front end. Because life is too short for 'git push origin +dev:master'
|
|
|
|
|
I just run git under command line bash shell. You can do everything you need on github from there.
Obligatory...

Yeah, except I have to deal with sharing repos with a pack of ... let's just say 'junior devs'. They need a happy GUI.
But yeah, those command-line UIs rock with i7s

GitHub’s open source framework with the JavaScript backend and the Chromium front end.
They created a desktop client using web technologies?
Amusingly, this reminds me of the company I left, the CTO (whom I've ranted about before) got it into his head that that was the way that ATM's and other casino software should be written. Mind you, this stuff has to interface to a whole bunch of hardware, some if still using RS232. So of course there was a C# app that drove the Chromium UI so the Javascript could interface with the hardware.
And of course, whenever Google updates Chrome, you run the risk that you're Chromium app breaks, which happened during development.
And of course, the new "kids" thought my architecture was too complicated and rewrote the whole hardware interface layer in F#.

Your devices could be part of a botnet without your knowledge, Norton experts claim. It's true! I discovered a bot named Cortana infected my machine
