China is building its military on a 'scale not seen since WWII' and is on track to be able to invade Taiwan by 2027: US admiral

outgoing head of the US Indo-Pacific Command, urged Washington to accelerate military development.

Better yet. Instead of spending a trillion dollars to gear up to join WW3, how about spend that money to develope domestic manufacturing so we can completely embargo all imports from China. Stay out of conflicts between other nations.

Hit them in the economy and it will hurt them far more than hitting them with bombs, plus the bonus effect of not wasting thousands if not millions of human lives.

Sounds like you clearly haven't used Windows in over a decade, or even close to two.

I haven't had to install a network driver since Windows XP. Even then it had drivers for most cards built in.

So they seriously not remember what thousands of people left Digg and moved to their platform for???

Reddit had a fraction of the users Digg had at one point. Then Digg changed to a new UI no one liked and started putting adds that looked like posts into the main feed.

Who ya gonna call?

The logic flaws are obvious when you flip the coin too.

The ACAB crowd and the "why do you need a gun?" crowd have a large overlapping percentage.

I personally agree with the entire left side of this meme. I feel that I am a minority though.

Never forget that gun control was a concept proliferated by a Republican (good ol' Ronny Reagan) to prevent minorities from arming themselves (the Black Panthers) against corrupt police. (LAPD and LASD)

Well the very first and most important thing they wanted was to give you the right to say that or whatever you want about them.

Before they enshrined that concept in their document, saying such things about members of your government would get you jailed or executed.

Microsoft's latest Windows update breaks VPNs, and there's no fix

Reply in thread

The reality is that it broke "something* in certain lpt2/ipsec connections using certain authentication protocols, although they haven't yet specified which particular connection technologies are affected.

However this does not mean that a blanket affect of ALL VPN connection not working is an issue.

So far we are unaffected on clients using ipsec and PAP protocol authentication, nor connections using Anyconnect (aka Cisco Secure Connect).

I have also not seen any affect on private VPN clients such as PIA or Nord on machines that have this update.

I suspect what broke was clients using MSChap, Microsoft's own protocol for authentication for VPN clients.

Source: an admin with 200+ client machines with VPN connections that are not impacted after installing this update.
