  • It's hard because the advertising somewhat subsidies the price.(Ie: they want the ad revenue so they will sell the display at cost with the intention that they'll make all the profit back from ads)

    Yo can absolutely find commercial displays in that size and resolution, but you'll pay a much higher price for them.

  • We have a few clients that use them to control the CNC machines they have.

    The machines are isolated from all other devices on the network and can't see the internet.

    The machinists run their gcode files from USB sticks that are walked from their machine to the CNC

  • Good. Ad blocking is security and anyone that tells you different both doesn't care about your computer security, and also wants to sell you something.

    That 2/3 to 3/4 of computer programmers, computer security experts and advertisers seems low. I feel like that should be closer to 90%

  • This would turn the Internet into a hell scape if only because corporations could throw huge amounts of money around.

    There would be incentive for the Pizza Huts and the Walmarts of the world to just assume control of the websites for any local competitors.

  • Domain squatting is incredibly scummy, but I have no idea how it would be possible to have any other system.

    My understanding is that domains do expire unless you pay the fee to renew for another year.

    Regarding unused domain names, how would anyone know if a particular name is being unused? Domain names are used for more things than browsable websites. You'd have to have a system that could determine if traffic is going to those names, which seems bad from a privacy standpoint and also pretty easy to script around.

  • That's exactly what they did.

    Nintendo's argument was that the software itself primarily facilities piracy and that to use it, you either had to circumvent protections on your own hardware to extract the keys or pirate someone else's keys.

    They're still wrong for abusing DMCA to remove the software, but it would take an expensive and lengthy court battle to get them to back off

  • There are a staggering number of SCADA systems open to the general internet, with basically no protection. They stay that way largely because adding a layer of security like a VPN connection requires a ton of red tape.

    Hopefully this forces some people to re-evaluate their stance
