Huawei promised to fix these horrible security issues after a code review in 2012 and the establishment of the HCSEC oversight board in 2014, yet HCSEC found Huawei had not fixed the issues found in 2012 in their 2018 report, at which point Huawei promised to spend $2 billion to improve code security.
IIRC the 2019 report from HCSEC outlined the same bugs had yet to be fixed. I think Huawei doesn't want to fix bugs in products they aren't currently selling (in part based on Nortel code that has been patched over the last decade with new features), thus the lies and lack of investment.
I just picked up a Mac Mini for recompiling a handful of apps. If I were developing daily on it, a better specced machine might be worth it, but 2 to 4 year old Mac Minis are cheap, have the latest MacOS and fulfill my needs.
The browser version of Zoom seems to require a free account be created, and it was audio only in Chromium, I could not get it to use my camera. Zoom refused to work in Firefox.
Jitsi and Google Meet seem to work in both browsers, without requiring me to log in.
I couldn't get it to work in Firefox ESR on Debian 10, and audio was consistently choppy for me in Chromium 80 after I went through their forced account creation process. Zoom wouldn't use my camera either in Chromium :c
Jitsi and Google Meet worked by following a link and clicking one popup. Much easier UX
The spread may appear low in your city, but how much of that is from lack of testing? If your employees can work from home, it is best for you to implement work from home ASAP.
Businesses in Washington State have shuttered or gone to work from home over the last 3 weeks, had most businesses made this change earlier(eg: at the beginning of those 3 weeks) we would see much less spread and quicker easing of restrictions.
Is Alberta doing widespread Covid-19 testing yet? We had cases of teens with no international travel getting Covid-19 in February according to the Seattle Flu Study, there are likely more cases in Edmonton that exhibit minimal symptoms currently.
The healthcare industry can't afford to exist if they don't get paid by someone (whether that is the insurers or Medicare/Medicaid). We've seen mass closures of rural hospitals and medical practices as more rural Americans have lost insurance or gotten insurance that has large penalties for using said insurance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18kxPz4Z_g8
Insurers themselves are a mixed bag, many have gone broke as IIRC the gov't managed pool of money they were supposed to pull out of/put money into to ensure no insurer went under from too many unhealthy, newly insured people has been starved of funding under our current administration.
I was affected by this, they SIM swapped a line on our account twice, both times on Friday at 5:23pm (followed by swapping the old SIM back at 5:42pm).
Just received the CPNI notice today from T-Mobile, we had a 6 digit PIN set prior to the first SIM swap on January 10th, and changed it before the following SIM swap on January 17th.
T-Mobile told me these swaps occurred at a store for both attacks. I did remove all authorized users from the account prior to the SIM swap on the 17th. T-Mobile has refused to provide Seattle Police Dept with any info about the fraudulent activity, and left me in the dark prior to the letter today.
Mozilla DeepSpeech has seen significant improvements in the quality of results it provides (and RAM/CPU usage) since early December, the accuracy of transcriptions has substantially improved in our testing.
Those two aren't mutually exclusive, and attempting to frame it in this manner is disingenuous.
The ability to book a place to stay is regulated by hospitality law to prevent exactly this type of discrimination by AirBnB against Cadence Lux's non-work related usage of AirBnB.
If a company acts to suppress & hurt a community then attempts to participate in said communities events, they should be ejected from said event.
Pride organizers need to grow a pair and start kicking companies and orgs that have abused LGBTQ+ people to the curb. If said org tries to pull a Salvation Army, they should be publicly put on notice like the Greater Seattle Business Alliance did: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/as-salvation-army-...
Actions speak louder than words, we have to fight back against PR that conveys lies.
Running games on Linux is trivial at this point, Valve has made WINE so easy to use that all my games from Windows work without me lifting a finger. Civ 5? No problem. Random Indie Game that only ever worked on Windows 7? Works great.
Google did not put sufficient resources towards building a broad platform. If they had, then the Stadia catalog would have many more titles. Instead the AAA rabbit hole has consumed the resources spent on Stadia, and players still get a crummy experience.
Google EOLed Chromebooks that were sold 3 years ago, they do not give a crap about maintaining a stable ecosystem.
These 3 year old Chromebooks don't even get Chrome security patches, you would literally be better off with any other laptop when it comes to security.
