Defender doesn't get updated as fast as other AV that is why it is free and if you actually get a MS enterprise AV is a ton of money compared to other enterprise AVs. I have had Defender not find viruses other AV will caught as long as

It's pretty simple that they are looking to protect the user from the everyday threats (hint hint: Bare Minimum in the title). Also while I'm sure your superman with a "security degree" that looks down on all the mere mo

Not much. Have not noticed a real increase in my electric bill. However, it is a mini desktop and designed to be low power. Probably far less then my Plex Server easily. There are options for much lower power hardware. I may do an experimen

Really? I though the least realistic thing on TV were the people given the perfect hair, make up and just genetic beauty. Its pretty obvious that Microsoft made a deal with the studio and Broadcasting companies. Just like the popularity of

I will say color makes a bigger impact on people that are not paying attention. I built a batch script to automate a lengthy process we had to do to a few dozen offline computers. I had field techs telling me it ran but didn't work. Fo

I think kemitche was saying was they would have two groups. One would be "Test Alerts" and the other would be "Real Alerts" not that we needed to have a philosophical break down of alerts by severity. severity may have n

>Do you know how many oranges you need to make a glass of juice? Nope but one orange has 12-17g of sugar and one cup of OJ has 21g. So maybe about two. I could easily eat that in one sitting.

Since you brought up Seattle, Washington. I think its crazy that there is a city tax on a substance that also receives a taxpayer-funded government subsidy. It like how much does the tax payer need to bleed itself to the government, all in

Well can't really. Actually my job. Not sharing your information is a good step and when you do compartmentalize it. Different emails and phone numbers for different things. I have a few google numbers I give out besides my actual numb

I have had a Google Home Mini since they came out and use it daily. Controls lights, multiple outlets, the Chromecasts through out my house, I used it to add stuff daily to my calendar, add items to my grocery list and much more. So I think

Simple, they have hit a price range that the average person feels they can spend and not feel to bad about wasting money later if it sits on the shelf. You would probably need to edit your question to "Why do you think millions of peop

>Having to say "OK, Google" instead of just "Google" (or "Alexa") is a deal-breaker. LOL. That is one of the reasons I hated Alexa. She turned on when a podcast said something about her, the TV ad came on, w

Why do you even have a smartphone? If you are so freaked out cause of it why do you leave in it your most private space (your house) with its mic and out of date software. Why don't you save yourself money by not buying a smartphone an

There will never be a new generation of offline neural nets. AI will need more and more horsepower as it evolves and that is more then what a normal household would want to spend. Cheap end devices are what the average buy is looking for. I

You don't have to drop $600 every year and a half. Which would only be $34 a month over that period. You can drop $600 every 3 years with google devices and have monthly security updates. You could save $17 every month for that 3 year

The only impact? You are a walking vulnerability. KRACK, Blueborne, just to name a few recently highly publicized vulnerabilities. You are like the perfect exploit, just waiting to get pwned. You are, Bill Harper.

I love the egotistical assumption that they have a bad Infosec policy and don't have VLANs based on basically one sentence. Here is one: "They connected computers to their network" The assumed security risk are endless and 1

That sounds terrible. That is a crazy amount of bandwidth usage to VPN out and then back into the the network through the same pipe is a waste. Not counting the licenses and even the ability to maintain that many connections at a given time
