Of course they are and if you don't think they are they'll keep repeating it until you believe.

Microsoft has officially confirmed that Windows 10, version 21H1 will be the next Windows 10 update to be released later during the spring of 2021. Sad news for those plodding along on ancient machines (you're still not getting a new one)

To win a slice of the cash on offer, competitors have “to create and demonstrate a solution that can pull carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere or oceans and lock it away permanently in an environmentally benign way”.
...
Yet this punter’s plaything has serious environmental consequences. “Mining” bitcoin — the process by which the supply of coins is augmented — requires electricity on a vast scale to run the computers involved. According to the Dutch economist, Alex de Vries, it chomps through around 78 terawatt hours (TWh) a year globally — equivalent to the consumption of Chile, a country of 20m. Each bitcoin transaction uses the same amount of power as 436,000 through the Visa payment system.

At ~9GW of power generation, that's around the lower bound of estimates I've seen of how much energy scamcoin's waste via proof of pollution mining. Elsewhere I've seen figures several times higher.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Low-code databases are tools designed with simple user interfaces that can be used successfully even by those without any background in programming. Databases where it's been replaced by haddock?
Or, "You know, like Access?"

What is low-code life?
Low-code life consists of appliances, devices, and services that can be used successfully even by those without any background in actual living, and who often don't know that milk comes from cows.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees close to him, "we need to inflict pain" on Apple for comments by Apple CEO Tim Cook that Zuckerberg described as "extremely glib." He's going to click the "unfriend" button?

We have our next James Bond villian. But he may be too unlikeable to make a good movie.

More like an Austin Powers villain.

New EPFL/INRIA research shows for the first time that it is possible for our mobile devices to conduct machine learning as part of a distributed network, without giving big global tech companies access to our data. Well, they are *smart* phones

Let me guess. Boston Dynamics, I mean Hyundai's robots will be on that network...
One step closer to needing to create a time machine...

Today is Delphi 26th anniversary. A very long time… Many things have changed, some more than others. Here’s my 26 picks! "Well, I've wasted all my years. Wasted all of those years, and nothing had the chance to be good"
It was either that or, "I coulda been a contender"

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Microsoft president Brad Smith said the software giant’s analysis of the SolarWinds hack suggests the code behind the crack was the work of a thousand or more developers. I wonder what team-building exercises they used?
It was probably go-karts and bowling, right?

I hope they didn't gave the analyse to the windows updates department...

People tend to be extremely nostalgic about the music they listened to when they were young. Because it's objectively the best. Duh!

The article used "pop music" as its test, so in no way can your statement be true.
