      If it helps, I can tell you that the password isn't "password123" or any derivative thereof.

    • RE: Windows 10 on MBA Thunderbolt Ethernet

      I think I sense a pattern.

      if I cold boot into Windows, the adapter is not there.

      If I cold boot into OS X, then reboot into Windows via Bootcamp, the adapter is there.

    • Windows 10 on MBA Thunderbolt Ethernet

      Upgraded my Win 7 bootcamp to Win 10, worked like a charm, shut it down over night.

      After booting today, The Thunderbolt Ethernet Adapter is not recognised and as this is a mac book air it's fairly annoying.

      Any ideas on what to try? Google fu coming up empty.

    • RE: How a High Minimum Wage Can Cripple a Business

      What is the greatest lie every created? What is the most vicious obscenity ever perpetrated on mankind? Slavery? The Holocaust? Dictatorship?

      No. It's the tool with which all that wickedness is built: altruism. Whenever anyone wants others to do their work, they call upon their altruism. Never mind your own needs, they say, think of the needs of... of whoever. The state. The poor. Of the army, of the king, of God! The list goes on and on. How many catastrophes were launched with the words "think of yourself"? It's the "king and country" crowd who light the torch of destruction. It is this great inversion, this ancient lie, which has chained humanity to an endless cycle of guilt and failure. My journey to Rapture was my second exodus.

      In 1919, I fled a country that had traded in despotism for insanity. The Marxist revolution simply traded one lie for another. Instead of one man, the tsar, owning the work of all the people, all the people owned the work of all of the people. So, I came to America: where a man could own his own work, where a man could benefit from the brilliance of his own mind, the strength of his own muscles, the might of his own will. I had thought I had left the parasites of Moscow behind me. I had thought I had left the Marxist altruists to their collective farms and their five-year plans. But as the German fools threw themselves on Hitler's sword "for the good of the Reich", the Americans drank deeper and deeper of the Bolshevik poison, spoon-fed to them by Roosevelt and his New Dealists.

      And so, I asked myself: in what country was there a place for men like me - men who refused to say "yes" to the parasites and the doubters, men who believed that work was sacred and property rights inviolate. And then one day, the happy answer came to me, my friends: there was no country for people like me! And that was the moment I decided... to build one.

      Maybe... but that wouldn't be nearly as cool as being wiped out by an ASI with its own survival instinct.

      Is there an alternative?

      @Breffni-Potter If things don't change, I see it happening exactly like what is going to happen in Wall-E. We won't have any choice but to leave the planet behind.

      I suspect it will happen like Fallout.

      Whether Space Travel can be practical for a sustained period or not, the mega rich/powerful will build elaborate high tech bunkers to survive if they cannot head to space.

    • RE: The Fermi Paradox: A Worthy Read

      It seems typical of human arrogance that without knowing of the existence of other civilisations, we are already trying to categorise and comprehend what "type" they will be and using our own understanding of physics trying to comprehend how they achieve this.

      I suspect Possibility 8 is the most likely. Other civilisations saw our backwards planet, with our reality TV and pointless conflicts and decided to declare earth a wildlife preserve for the naive violent creatures until we develop past that.

      Not 8 hours all at once.

      8 hours over 4 weeks. And the knowbe4 content is still pricey for what are just recorded videos.

      I wonder if it needs to be enormous. What causes it to cost so much? I suppose, since we are trying to teach common sense, there is no cost that would really do it.

      How much does 8 hours of training cost? What's the hourly rate for a good trainer?

      The last 2 lines of the article say it all for me

      "User education will not prevent every attack. But it will prevent some while we’re waiting for those perfect defenses to arrive."
