News@lemmy.world•Delta CEO says CrowdStrike-Microsoft outage cost the airline $500 million
1·2 years agoI think what I was hearing is that the CrowdStrike driver is WHQL approved, but the theory is that it’s just a shell to execute code from the updates it downloads, thus effectively bypassing the WHQL approval process.

Technology@lemmy.world•Valve runs its massive PC gaming ecosystem with only about 350 employeesEnglish
2·2 years agoCorrect. In fact many, many companies have ASNs. Little companies all the way up to large ones. The key difference for an ISP is they allow you to route traffic through them. Almost every company that has an ASN blocks traffic from being routed through them, assuming they know how to configure that and that they have different peering points. Valve most certainly does not allow you to route through their network, they already have enough traffic just doing their own CDN stuff.

161·2 years agoStill doesn’t matter if something is “heavily taxed” because regardless of how much tax, you’ll never own more in taxes than you made. So if you got a 10,000 bonus and it was heavily taxed at 60 percent, you don’t somehow have to pay like 15,000 in taxes or something on it. You pay 60% of 10,000, leaving you with 4,000 left over. This is typically done before you even see the money, if not ensure that you keep funds aside to pay for the tax.
Also looking briefly at Japan, it appears that their income tax is a bracket based system similar to the US. So again, even if you go up a bracket, you’ll never own more taxes than you make. Honestly, people need to stop thinking in brackets when it comes to taxes, all you need to worry about is your “effective tax rate.” That’s it, you don’t need to worry that your income pushed you into a 29% tax bracket or whatever. All that matters is your effective tax rate is 24.2% or whatever. You’ll never own more money because you “moved” into a higher bracket, because that’s not how that works.
Make sure the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” is off. I think it’s off by default. That setting will reboot your computer no matter what as soon as the update is done installing.

Australia@aussie.zone•Belong ISP Updating Their Terms, Maybe Dropping Third Party Modem Support And Speed Throttling
01·3 years agoYour router isn’t a modem, they don’t care what router you use.
Not sure what kind of ISP these guys are, but I’m assuming coax based, in which case they probably are adding terms saying you need to use more modern DOCSIS modems. This is most likely because they are going to start to phase out support for older DOCSIS standards.
I once updated an ACE for an ACL that was used for a PBR. It crashed the 4500-X VSS about 20 second later, brought down client access into our Data Center. Fun times!
I’m also not looking forward to anything DNA Center. I’ve played with it and it’s so much hot garbage I can’t even begin to describe how much I don’t like the product already.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What piece of wisdom about life are you able to provide others?English
4·3 years agoHere’s a simple one.
Double check that newly installed clothes washer actually has the drain line properly connected. If you don’t know how to check it, have someone else do it for you.

Technology@beehaw.org•‘Scanners are complicated’: why Gen Z faces workplace ‘tech shame’
22·3 years agoHonestly I expect, just like in the early days of personal computing, that Gen Z and beyond will suffer from PC illiteracy. The main issue is that phones and tablets are being used almost exclusively during school and on personal time, so they have no idea what Windows nor even Mac looks and feels like. What happens with Zoomer gets an office job for the first time? They have to figure out how to use Windows and Office for the first time. It’s crazy to think that your 70 yr old Grandma and your 17 yr old Nephew could potentially be on the same level of knowledge of how to use Windows, Office, etc…



Hmm, probably not. I think it just has the single 120mm fan that probably doesn’t need to spin up that fast under normal load. We’ll have to wait for reviews.
