Auto-update has been disabled after they sent me an update that invalidated the "genuine" mark. That is not adding value, that is adding costs.
For serious work, you use a serious OS.

XP-SP3 VM in a Linux Desktop with VPN connections?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Without the XP; it is deprecated, and only used by governments.
They're not that picky in security, it seems

First... it was a joke. But...
Coming to thema... XP is the only not being "updated" in privacy.
Under some circumstances it is easier to get around security

Microsoft's 'Project Sonar' service, which analyzes millions of potential exploit and malware samples in virtual machines, may be available to users outside the company in the not-too-distant future. It looks like you've got a virus. Would you like help with that?

RAD Studio 10 Seattle has an updated Visual Control Library designed to mesh with the Windows 10 look-and-feel. Because Delphi would never leave you
|

|

It seems more expensive than Visual Studio, and Delphi's docs suck. Aside from that, it seems like Embarcadero is keeping up with the times. Why are more people not using their stuff.
|
|

|

Why didn't people use it back the Borland days? Delphi rocked, big time (for Pascal), and their C++ was definitely superior to "that other guy's".
grumble grumble.

"The reports of any Billionaire's sad and loneliness have been highly exaggerated."
Billionaire != (sad && lonely)
|

Well, if you're unhappy, go and take a bunch of that money and help the people who need it. Build a home for the homeless. Give food to the starving. Start a community. Be social, the real deal, not that virtual crap. You won't be lonely anymore. And there's no greater happiness than knowing you probably saved some lives. Just my two cents.

Uh...colonization of Mars? Already done.
Check your news.
We're working on colonizing Rhea now. Saturn is lovely on the horizon.

This is the part that has actually made him more sad.
You see he has found:
1. You cannot help all of the people all the time -- it's too big even for a Billionaire.
2. You cannot help some of the people any of the time -- it's too convoluted even for a Billionaire.
And there, he sits...

Due to quantum effects, it's possible to build a quantum computer that computes without running—or as the scientists explain, "the result of a computation may be learned without actually running the computer." Think of what it could do if they turn it on!

"This is obviously a meaning of the term 'without running' of which I was previously unaware." -- Arthur Dent
If it's producing results, it's running.

The claim not only alleges that Google favors its own products over competitors' - even when the others are more popular - but also that the sponsored links shown on the search engine are heavily skewed by the amount of money paid to Google. Next up for the Google ATM

In other news, The Pope is Catholic, and Bears Sh*t in the Woods.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I didn't know a privately held and operated company was required to display search results in a particular order. Oh wait, maybe this is one of those 'balance the budget off companies that actually do stuff' things fail governments like to pull from time to time.
