Cyber security workers only review major updates to software applications only 54 percent of the time, according to a poll of tech managers. That's because the updates always work and fix all the problems

I suppose many managers think: If Microsoft can do it, we can do it too.

How is this possible if people are using code scanning tools?
Is the sample (as in size) for this assertion to imply it only includes firms not using such things?

CrowdStrike is apparently one of those companies.

Possible... yes.

While the feature initially appeared as “optional” or something that could be easily dismissed, Microsoft is slowly getting aggressive with its new OneDrive backup campaign on Windows 11. Are you sure you don't want to pay us even more every month?

Are you sure you don't want the entire contents of your PC hacked or given to the NSA?

And give full license to Microsoft to use any or all of your data in any way that they see fit?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I will fully backup my 3 TB of data at the awesome speed of 5 Mb/s in upload in approximately 2 months, with no Internet use.
Sure thing.

If I wanted my stuff on the "cloud", I would have put it there long before MS came up with this "new, improved" cr@p of theirs.

Since I have a Microsoft 365 subscription (Office is actually cheaper this way than buying new every five years), I turned this on. To ensure my data is always available on my machine I set the main folders of Desktop, Documents, Pictures, and Music to always keep on my machine. This setting allows me to use my laptop offline should I need to do so.
It took the OneDrive application over a week to upload everything.

Enjoy the little phone bill when you are abroad, use your phone for connecting to the internet with mobile roaming data, and your laptop synchronizing a few terabytes...

I just wouldn't enable OneDrive. Like I said, I keep everything on the local machine as well.
Also, my OneDrive is configured to not sync when on a metered connection.

Researchers have presented new evidence for the presence of two gases that are closely related to life on Earth in the atmosphere of Venus. It remains unclear if the phosphine will be friendly
I was going to go with an 'Amazon women' comment, but they were from the moon.

Quote from the article: While phosphine gas can technically be produced by volcanic activity, it's far more abundantly produced by bacteria in oxygen-starved environments. Scientists therefore refer to it as a "biosignature" gas.
Quote from EarthSky.org: a new map of Venus’ volcanoes, all 85,000 of them. About 99% of them are less than three miles (five km) in diameter.
Technically, I'd wager on the volcanoes.
