Probably pretty minor, but just patch nGinx anyway

Too bad KVM is not available on Mac then I can move from using Virtualbox.

@Tim_G said in Log Into Windows with a Biometric Ring: @Dashrender said in Log Into Windows with a Biometric Ring: So now you start stealing rings... lol It's harder to steal a ring than credentials through phishing emails, as one example. Quite a bit more And easier to know when it has been stolen. Now if the ring could read heart or other biometric and only work when on the right person's finger(s), even better.

@EddieJennings said in PowerPoint Hovering Attack: @mlnews Looks like the tl;dr is don't enable content unless you're 100% sure of the source. Or download it. Or open it....

@Kelly Baseball and Tennis... I will stick with that excuse as well. Used a trackball for well over 10 years. I am a rather large person 6'5" tall so I have large hands and my only compliant is the Logitech Trackballs have gotten smaller over the years and are now a little too small for my tastes.

Not even nearly so creepy as Echo Look. Get your fashion advice from Amazon, and maybe a few pointers on other things as well...

About time. Having that phone limping along has done nothing for Microsoft's fortunes, nor has it helped the mobile industry.

FTA, it doesn't look like it has an NVIDIA or Radeon GPU. As a gamer, it would have to have a decent GPU before I'd consider dropping money on one.

@stacksofplates said in Unity Development to Continue at UBPorts: @StrongBad said in Unity Development to Continue at UBPorts: @stacksofplates said in Unity Development to Continue at UBPorts: @scottalanmiller said in Unity Development to Continue at UBPorts: Good that someone is doing this. There are people who like Unity and will want to have it keep moving forward even if more slowly. It wouldn't be bad if a few things were changed. It was just super slow to do a lot of tasks. Not really meant for people doing a lot of tasks. It's kind of a "one task at a time" interface. I just meant a lot of tasks are slow. Not a lot at once, just a lot of the normal things you would do were slow. Oh, got you man

Ya I've got a low power CPU with a single m.2 and using a tuned profile.

@dafyre said in DragonFly BSD 4.8 Released: @scottalanmiller said in DragonFly BSD 4.8 Released: @matteo-nunziati said in DragonFly BSD 4.8 Released: for curiosity sake: who is actually using dragonfly bsd and why? I've deployed it a bit in labs. I'm always watching it closely because Hammer is very important. Hammer? One of the world's most advanced fileystems. Dragonfly is important as a kernel alternative ecosystem to FreeBSD, from which it split (in many ways Dragonfly is the real FreeBSD and FreeBSD is the "new" product that split from it) but its real relevance is as a filesystem research platform. The kernel maintainer there writes a totally unique filesystem, called Hammer, just for Dragonfly.

I'm not seeing any Marked improvements in World of Warcraft at the moment. It does seem a little smoother though.

@travisdh1 said in Zorin OS 12 Released: Man, that looks lots better than most desktops. Don't think it will draw me away from KDE yet tho. Zorin is gorgeous. They've been doing a good job for a while. Very popular with people coming over from Windows.
