    Genuine question…it seems generally known that malicious groups (both state entities or hackers) have spent considerable effort and resources hoarding day zero exploits. As soon as 10 is out of LTS in October, those groups start turning on their scripts, right?

    To me it seems not only possible but nearly certain that there’ll be a significant malware/botnet attack in Q4 across Windows 10 devices. Am I missing something?

      And with these moronic tarriffs, any company who isn’t actively working on upgrading right now is pretty well hosed.

      oh let’s not forget Elon & The Doge Dicks fucking around with the COBOL systems…

      Strap on your strapons folks; its about to get weird.
