I wonder how the IT guys at work are going to handle the Exchange exploits. I was planning to check my work email this morning, too.

Raining steady last couple hours but by radar won't be all day as it's moving fast.

If you're running Microsoft Exchange, unplug it right now. (Krebs on Security) What day of the week is 'zero day'? Posted by: Divide by Zero at October 01, 2022 04:40 AM (y3pKJ) 7
Working on proofreading and mild editing for... well, another book on concentration camps and Holocaust education in Post-Combloc Eastern Europe, and my colleague insists on using rtf. It's a PIA. I'm not sure why he does this. The big issue is comments, which is where editing suggestions go: I've transferred them to docs, odt, and gdocs, and every time some comments, usually in footnotes, get deleted when I transfer them back into rtf. I've tried working in rtf directly, and when sending them back to him, lost comments again, again in the footnotes. It's annoying and slowing things down.

It also makes it look like I'm not checking the footnotes, which I am, I'm just losing the work in transfer.
I think rtf is a go-to for people there as any kind of computer there is HIDEOUSLY expensive, comparatively, and getting worse. Monthly income is about USD$500/mo, and even a Chromebook is almost USD$3-400 due to taxes. So any kind of laptop is insanely pricey there. So people use whatever they can get and bootleg software; and rtf *will* mostly work across platforms, so maybe that's why everyone uses it. Posted by: LenNeal at October 01, 2022 04:47 AM (43xH1) 9

LenNeal, check out Atlantis Word Processor. It runs on ancient hardware/OS as far back as Windows 2000, doesn't cost much, and is compatible with just about everything that matters. It has some nice features Microsoft still doesn't, like saving as EPUB. This would let you have a full feature writing environment that would also work for your collaborator.

Not raining much but windy

I do not get two things:
-Game streaming. To me it just feels like I am renting a game. -Mobile gaming. This one I hate but understand. Considering how many people are absolutely obsessed with their phones and how much ridiculous usage there is for mobile games, I understand developers making games for them, I just hate the idea of playing on a phone. My first computer monitor was 14". I don't wanna go back. Posted by: Aetius451AD at October 01, 2022 05:35 AM (dNqv+) 19
It is windy and cool here.

Raining steady since I left home 🏡

Play any game on a phone seems kind of limiting. I have a large monitor, and love the expanse of the game. About the only thing I use my phone for is calls and text. Just park on any street or where people are sitting and they are just staring at a very small screen. Lets all go back to the big black dial phone, at least you could have a decent conversation. In a bar no one is talking, they just stare at the phone. Maybe not the drunk sitting in the corner booth, but everyone else is, crazy world we live in.

Morning, everybody! Evening, Pixy! I'm up with Dagny the little Siberian, having my coffee with Superman on the TV. I'm fuzzy on the whole Sat. am thing. Does Krak emerge with the EMT about now?

This is reminiscent of MS shrugging off the loss of billions with hotmail. Makes wonder how big tech can afford to lose 10s of billions and behave do nonchantly about it.

I would like to offload the graphics performance treadmill onto someone else. Renting the games seems a lot cheaper if you don't have to buy a new graphics card (and maybe a new power supply) every few years. I'm with you on mobile games, though. Tiny screens, bad audio, crappy input devices, an lack of computing power... what's not to like? I get it if you're stuck on a train, but other than that? No. Posted by: Ace's liver at October 01, 2022 07:35 AM (wGeit) 32
By the way. The answer to which of your was lambda functions is running an outdated version of python is “all of them”.
Currently aws only supports through python 3.9 while the latest release of python is 3.10.7 Posted by: Gman at October 01, 2022 08:00 AM (hYj23) 33
Samsung Electronics, the world's largest memory chipmaker, provided more insight into the worsening slowdown for semiconductors and the bust in global PC markets.
Korea Economic Daily reported Samsung "lowered its semiconductor sales forecast for the second half of the year by more than 30%." The newspaper attributed slumping semiconductors demand "as the economy froze due to central bank rate hikes caused by global inflation." The paper warned: "As the semiconductor industry has entered a full-fledged ice age, there are many forecasts in the industry that the recession will continue until the first half of next year when semiconductor inventories are eliminated." .. now, can anybody explain the "Chip Shortage" ?

Devs shouldn’t be surprised about Stadia not only because Google shutdown their own gaming studio and didn’t capitalize on the pandemic, but also because Google has a pattern of axing big ambitious projects that garner a small audience but don’t become the next big thing right off the bat. Google Wave, Google Plus, etc. Combine that with a company culture that incentivizes bringing new projects to market and actually disincentivizes working on already-released products, and it becomes obvious that Stadia wasn’t long for this world right when it launched and wasn’t immediately a big hit.

"Olde Skuul had planned to launch Luxor Evolved on Stadia Pro on November 1st and was even planning to meet with Google on Friday to discuss the release plan. That obviously isn't happening now."
This reminds me of why I detest Intel. Designed a product around an Intel comm chip. 14 months of design, prototype, test, feedback to Intel on chip, chip revision, 2nd prototype, more test, more feedback to Intel, determine workarounds, get promise of new chip revision, design release version, with workarounds and options for new chip, build and test release version, set up production line. Announce product Monday. Friday, get letter from Intel discontinuing chip, defining last time buy procedure. Unannounced product next week. Company ate over 300 grand in development cost. Over the years talking to lots of friends and acquaintances who worked at Intel, determined that no one should depend on Intel for *anything* that doesn't relate, directly to processors. I heard lots of stories about internal projects that were canceled, and companies bought, absorbed and re-org'd into oblivion. They were making so much on uP, what would have been a fatal hemorrhage of cash was ignored. Posted by: buddhaha at October 01, 2022 01:01 PM (aAdBs) 37

Think of it as a shoe shortage where the problem is too many right shoes, and no left shoes. Moore's Law if dead was talking about the Zen4 launch situation and basically AMD's marketing department more or less managed to pull a faceplant out of what should have been a clean sweep. They'll probably do as well as anything because the chips really are good, cheap to make and widely available, so by the time Raptor Lake "launches" you'll be able to get lower priced Zen 4's and $125 AM5 boards, while the Raptor lake shelves are empty. MLiD's recommendation to AMD is to release a 7700 non-X after the B660 boards are out, and require reviewers include the 45W eco mode in the testing, then quietly discontinue the 7700X, so the early negative reviews don't come up as much. By that point the 20% early adopter tax should be done as well, so the whole omg 95C + $500!!! MB thing should be over and done. Posted by: Voyager at October 01, 2022 01:31 PM (u5PZm) 38
