  • You’re not wrong, legal software doesn’t require special hardware to run, but when your PDF editor with its document management system plugin no longer displays more than 2 pages when viewing them in outlook’s attachment preview and it’s seemingly related to dpi and the monitor, it’s helpful if you are using hardware that is used by many other law firms with a similar combination of hardware and software.

    Anyone in legal IT, or even other lawyers, would laugh at you for using a gaming laptop.

  • You’d want a Lenovo think pad or dell. They are enterprise-grade, with enterprise support and enterprise software.

    The legal industry is almost 100% Lenovo/dell/hp. All legal software runs on them, and the legal it industry collaborates on issues,testing.

    Lenovo and dell can spec an enterprise laptop that would be just as good if not better than what’s on that desk.

    This screams “buy me the most expensive laptop you can” but they were talking to their nephew who “knows computers”

    What a clown show.

  • Federation. Your email address could either be local creds, or federated with google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, etc.

    When you submit your email address, it determines how you will be authenticating when you submit it.

  • It’s probably built with Kevlar or steel, is height adjustable, and includes the electronic displays and equipment. Then maybe they bought two or three of them from a contractor that has security clearance.

    Or it’s just a cheap one that had its price jacked up for no reason. Had they not fudged the numbers and included a build list that had redactions on it, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

  • Anything that decodes webp images is vulnerable to an attack. Unless the vendor of the app says they patched it, assume they have not.

    Browsers are obvious, but lots of other things decodes images. Your text messaging app, atm machines, vehicle infotainment, the ticket swipe at the airport. Anything designed to capture, process, or display anything is suspect, along with the underlying os of anything.

  • Did you sleep through the search engine wars? Not a single search engine was good. There were sites dedicated to sending your search to all of the search engines at once.

    Google showed up and it was game over. Their ad sales took off, and then they came out with gmail with 1gb of free storage and everyone went nuts for it since trying to stay under 15mb for your local isp was a pain in the ass.

    Google disrupted very hard and continued to do so in many ways for a long time.

  • I was in either a bad fancy hotel or an upscale motel last week. Valet parking only, $40/day.

    My room had an excellent view of the parking lot which was outside and ground floor. It also wasn’t very full.

    But since it was valet only, there were workers there 24x7. It was an odd money grab.
