If a recent update is wreaking havoc on your computer, Windows 10 may automatically uninstall it, according to Microsoft support. I wonder if they can roll me back to Win7?
Or NT4 Workstation?

Dunno - I remember it as being a great OS, before they went all candy coated UI.

And their update rollback will for sure work smoothly and don't cause any harm...

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?

The service allows you to send download links that are set to automatically expire after a certain period of time, or after a set number of people have downloaded them. An additional password can also be set before a recipient can download a file. Burn after reading

Microsoft is planning to push notifications to Windows 7 users warning them about the upcoming end of support. Nice OS you got here. Shame if anything were to happen to it.

Security researchers have found dozens of companies inadvertently leaking sensitive corporate and customer data because staff are sharing public links to files in their Box enterprise storage accounts that can easily be discovered. Oh, *that's* what's in the box

Oh, it's really terrible, when your box is misconfigured!
Just ask Ian Botham (or his ghost).

The World Wide Web is 30 years old tomorrow. A day earlier, its founder, English engineer and computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee, first proposed the system that would become the WWW on March 11th, 1989. To acknowledge the anniversary, he’s revisited his ideas about the internet in a new letter published today. Put it in Tupperware at the back of the fridge?

Nah, pull the plug on it, already!

My utopia didn't turn out as planned!
The only way to "fix" the web is to kick everyone off of it. Or does Berners-Lee have a solution to fix people too. Ironic that he talks about unintended consequences and then asks for government intervention. He may be smart, but he's a fool.

The article says: Berners-Lee is hopeful about humans’ and systems’ capacity to improve. The latter is disproven by windows, and the former is disproven by US and UK politics.
I'd be interested to laugh at see his research on the topics.

One of the more useful debugging advances that have arrived in the last decade is DTrace. DTrace of course needs no introduction: it’s a dynamic tracing framework that allows an admin or developer to get a real-time look into a system either in user or kernel mode. DBugging Dlite with DTrace

Microsoft has started to display notifications in the Windows 10 Action Center asking users to have a phone call with Microsoft developers and provide direct feedback about the ALT+TAB feature in Windows. New code quality idea - add the developer's home phone number to git commit!
We may overload the phone system in Redmond though.

How about talking to them about their broke-dick updates?
