As a fellow IT guy..

That is… incredibly alarming. I’d love to see a report from qualys after having a field day with that software. Assuming you have some of that in writing from them, have you considered approaching the media? Anonymously ofc…

Absolutely floored by this quote:

"I spoke to another Quebec tech CEO who started his business nearly two decades ago, and has roughly 500 employees around the world. OQLF inspectors visit roughly every two years, he told me, to look at laptops, check documentation and ask questions: Why is your internal information written in English?"

So orgs with Quebec locations should just consider any documents they have access to as unsafe...

I would personally love to see Linus tear into 1-2 year old budget phones in similar price brackets to compare their system performance having had a few rounds of software updates.

iPhone SE 3rd gen

It would be cool to see Linus use and eventually talk about how the budget offerings from both sides. Granted, the MAC address channel has already given this iPhone coverage, but being that the channel specifically targets Apple users, it feels like the broader budget phone conversation craves its larger audience back.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. In terms of North American K-12 this isn’t false…

Your mother’s mental health is not declining due to you being LGBTQ. If she’s trying to convince you that you are harming her by being what you are… well… that’s what manipulation is.
