Python 2 may be reaching end of life, but old Python 2 code will remain around for years to come. If it ain't broke, wait until they break it for you

Travelers should use only AC charging ports, use USB no-data cables, or "USB condom" devices. Every time you're plugging in, you're plugging in to everyone else that's plugged in
Or something like that

Bloomberg article (includes video story - watch instead of read).
Nat Friedman[^], CEO GitHub, goes to arctic to "[deposit] 6,000 of the most popular open source projects."
They'll be safe for at least 1,000 years and possibly up to 2,000.
They are stored not on magnetic or optical media but,
"...data is stored on a reel of film coated with oxide powder. The information can still be read by a computer or if need be, by a human with a magnifying glass."

I'm sure my projects are included.

Impossible though, it's a hoax so it can't have real world consequences
Also, why do I really want to play Horizon: Zero Dawn?

The implication being that 1000 to 2000 years after an apocalypse any survivors will have re-invented the wheel with enough knowledge to create the technology that can read this stuff. And care. Riiight.

Exactly! I will be busy with more important stuff, like trying to make a sandwich.

A small sphere levitated on sound can be moved around fast enough to be a display. "This is our most desperate hour."
I'm sorry, I don't seem to get it. It seems to be a glorified (and limited) POV "display"

Since the May 2019 Update, Windows 10 has been showing a warning when users connect to WIFI networks secured via WEP or TKIP warning users that these protocols are now easily hacked. Coffee shops will never be the same again

How do they think they can get away with that when so many hackers depend on it?

only fools are using WEP for wifi connections. It is extrem insecure so first choice for attacks.
WPA3 is coming with state of art encryption and massive improvements in performance and latency
Press F1 for help or google it.
