Yeah, humans regularly deliver stuff wrong on our street. There is no way robots will manage. I get packages for both by neighbours and they get mine more often than correct deliveries and one of my neighbours is a business.

A great example of this is TSA luggage locks. Mandated backdoor, master keys leaked by company that makes them, now anyone can open any TSA approved lock.

I meant running windows on them, its enormous and its all linux servers. I know you can run windows but it'll be a tiny fraction.

This is my thought, they've all but lost the battle for cloud servers and they'd rather the developers computers were Windows. WSL allows that.

I did this once, it was legitimate but he refused to tell me even what department he called from. I said i wasn't going to give personal into to an incoming call and i wasn't calling back unless i knew why. He ended up mailing me a letter instead.

I almost got scammed a few years ago by being called about fraudulent activity the day after i reported fraudulent activities, in hindsight I think they just got lucky with timing, but I take no chances now.

Ever noticed how decades ago if someone defeated a bank's security we called it bank robbery, but now it's called identity theft and we get blamed for it.
