Seemed like quite a lot of Danish bank have terrible HTTPS connection security (scoring a F on Qualys SSL Labs). That’s a bad sign and my gut feeling was telling me that this wouldn’t be the only security vulnerability they would have. Good thing my offshore accounts are in Switzerland

I have a theory that 99% of the people are a bunch of bunglers.
I guess that 1% didn't work at Danske Bank...

For the first time since it introduced its own ad-blocking support, Apple has approved an app which allows users to block adverts inside mobile apps – even the company’s own ad-supported Apple News. What about an app that blocks Apple updates please.

The next time you’re thinking of throwing away a used boarding pass with a barcode on it, consider tossing the boarding pass into a document shredder instead. Two-dimensional barcodes and QR codes can hold a great deal of information, and the codes printed on airline boarding passes may allow someone to discover more about you, your future travel plans, and your frequent flyer account. Wonder if I can get a paper shredder through airport security...

Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia, has launched scathing criticism at governmental plans to ban data encryption, arguing that encryption is both impossible to prevent and a direct result of overreaching digital surveillance. Ban all the things!

Yeah, ban data encryption it is "moronic", and say bye-bye to privacy and hacking bank transactions will be kids game.
I will finally be able to play with Joshua.

"Gabriel Aul, who is Vice President, WDG Engineering Systems at Microsoft and the spokesperson for the Windows Insiders program, confirmed today that the classic Control Panel is about to die in the future:

Who can say what is about to die in the past without being a time-traveler ?

More a comment on the redundancy or ambiguity, can't tell which.

Why write 'will die soon' when you can double the word count? Writers are often paid by the word, you know.

Microsoft is still relatively fresh off the launch of Windows 10, which — as presenter and Windows team head Terry Myerson pointed out — happened less than three months ago. Now, the company is getting ready to release its smartphone variant, Windows 10 Mobile. And while the operating system isn’t out yet, we just got our first look at the phones that will run it: Microsoft’s two flagship Lumias, along with one budget option. Oh look they have a laptop AND a smartwatch now.

Wow. Just wow. This event has so many amazing announcements and demos in it. Continuum for Windows 10 phones is *really* damn cool. I wasn't expecting much but it surprisingly kinda blew me away. Based on the demo I think it might be the first implementation of a phone as a convertible PC done right. That part starts at about 44:00 if you are interested in seeing it in action. Universal Windows Apps are a huuuuge plus for this, especially the part of the demo where the app can switch between the monitor and the phone screen and it keeps its state and everything...so cool!

Was it ever "popular" or just in demand?
