This sounds like the meme of holding a riffle like a pistol, so your fear for getting smacked with the butt makes you impervious to recoil.

Just have multi-boot and before crossing set the auto-boot timeout at 0, then change it later. If you want to be safe, you can also copy and delete the boot details for your actual partition. I leave a dummy partition with Windows, office a

Let's not forget that criminals can also exploit a backdoor, so creating them jeopardizes public safety. Furthermore, if IT vendors agreed to create those backdoors, criminals are not forced to use those products and can still rely on

A critical security issue in public cloud is that users often misunderstand what infrastructure security entails. I've been in public cloud pitches that sold their security measures as a golden standard that made my managers believe th

This is also a slippery slope for US cities and states: - We invest money we don't have in an infrastructure we don't need hoping it will bring tax payers and investment so we can pay it in the future. This is mostly caused becaus

I wonder how much this was a case of poor planning and how much actual corporate malice.

About retreating behaviour, this was slightly the case with Mount&Blade Warband, where units would now and then flee when their moral was low, which could happen due several factors. Still I am unsure if historically anyone would be wil

It currently depends on the player or game source: - Deathwing, a multiplayer cooperative game based in the WH40K universe have an AI problem, which makes the game utterly boring as enemies will do exactly the same each time. - AI bots have

This is LPDDR vs. DDR RAM types. There was no intel processor that supported LPDDR4 during the MBP design. If you wanted to add 32G in a laptop, then DDR4 and reduced battery life are your only options. A good example is the XPS 15, which t

32GB ram laptops don't utilize LPDDR3, as in Low Power DDR3, which is used to reduce power consumption. If you're happy carrying a "portable" jet turbine, be my guest.

Mac Pros were hugely disappointing for professionals: - The big boxes were highly upgradeable, which is what a professional needs. - The trashcans are a nice concept but traded the main perk of Mac Pros for design.

The ram limitation, similar to the limitations on processor are Intel's fault, not Apple. Mac's latest version uses LPDDR3E which tops at 16G. For 32G you would need LPDDR4 or LPDDR4E and a processor compatible. http://

Yep, I forgot about the masses of Chinese workers currently there (e.g. Ghana). One can only hope rising Chinese standards and wages will eventually convince them to hire local instead.

Ideally for West Africa, China will move their production eventually to them, through heavily unfavorable deals and low wages. However this will help the population get trained and (economically) on their feet to start their own companies.

Some IDEs will convert tabs to spaces when saving and the other way around when editing, so, while your approach is interesting, not really a proof of a majority choice. Also my beef is specially with people who don't use tabs in files
