I can't imagine starting a project from ~2010 and on while choosing Windows as the stack.

My brain goes there too, but the other part of my brain says "line always goes up." The richest among us are heavy owners of stocks, and this country does everything it can to keep those numbers up. Look at that insane COVID V-shaped recovery that happened. That's just not a real/natural market reaction in my book.

There's no way average intelligence gets high enough for that to happen.

We renewed our agreement with them in the middle of the year (~$50k) and they've yet to invoice us for it. Our financial controller noticed and I pinged our account rep a few times. Not a peep back.

Is there any chance that Microsoft's disk encryption doesn't have an NSA backdoor?

You must be new to the United States. Only the poors go to jail (except in the most extreme cases like Epstein, and it still took them 20+ years to do anything to him.

Yeah, this is nothing new. Stocks always bump on layoff news.

That phrasing is obnoxious. Say it like it is - it's the "second biggest cost."

For anyone else confused, RTO = "Return to Office". First thing that came to mind for me was "Recovery Time Objective."

I'm guessing someone severely broke their site. I can't even visit https://archive.is without hitting a never-ending captcha loop.

Very much want (especially at that price point.) I've signed up to be notified!

Thank you for all of this information! I also do van RVing and use a combination of carriers/connections. I did a fair amount of reading on Multipath TCP as it was new to me. What I've found seems to be fairly opaque and it doesn't seem to be highly implemented. Some notes/questions:

* Every device and endpoint that it's used on needs to support it. My PCs, mobile devices, router, etc. all need to have it enabled and configured. This makes me question if every other layer 4 router in-between you and the endpoint also need to support it. * Endpoints that you're connecting to need to support it. It doesn't seem to be widely deployed. https://mptcp.io/ * OpenWRT's implementation doesn't seem well supported and the kernel that's needed for it is really old. * In your Zoom example, they'd need to support it server side (I don't see anything public stating that they do, but a packet capture would verify.) Also, a lot of that sort of real time traffic is UDP or QUIC (I don't know if Zoom is.)

A lot of gamers chase FPS to go with their high refresh rate monitors, and 1080p is a sweet spot for that right now.
