    Shame on Bleeping to fail to include Apple's own Passwords in the 2FA recommendation. A huge population of Apple users already have the tools right on their device if folks mention…

    Well iOS and macOS are only vulnerable in a very narrow range of conditions. On the other hand Android is a field day. And I believe these were patched in the current versions of i…

    Because that was the last meeting they could have before Colossus required Forbin to be under 24/7 surveillance. I think it makes perfect sense. How else could he send/get informat…

    Interesting - you don't seem to have researched your own opinion. A cursory search of Youtube for rebuttal videos shows plenty of people that provide evidence and sources to show h…

    If it was true but it's not. The problem with believing rando people rather than reading from the actual source. They can only view your screen and only after you explicitly grant …

    Hahahahahahahahahahahaha. He's an evil megalomaniac. His every action has only one goal - attempting to demonstrate he's the most brilliant person on Earth. Psst. He's not succeedi…

    Who ever thought racism had gone away? I'm not sure why people think there's been some explosion of racism? That's nonsense. The difference between today and the past is that the r…

    No. If you're offgrid and try to call 911 the interface automatically offers to use Satellite services.

    This is such a poor idea I can't even describe. Apple discourages using AirTags on pets yet alone a family member. It depends on the serendipity of them going near an Apple device …
