We could try analysing the firmware, but there could always be a rogue microcontroller somewhere that could be doing something that is completely hidden from the rest of the system. Then again, there are always those NSA backdoors, right?

I'm drugging them and then stopping their heart because I don't want them to suffer out of a desire to have them in my life. It's not up to you to dictate what people can and cannot refer to as euthanasia—an easy or good death, or how they should grieve.

Exactly, it should be a complete reworking of the internal components, it should be silent, it should be redesigned and reengineered, the parts should be scrutinised, and the power supply should be good for a least 20 years, and the ball grid array should never break; might as well make it waterproof as well.

I'm more worried that you are trusting a computer to keep key entry secure; obviously, it's a convenience vs. security trade-off. It's not that difficult to keep a directly of site logins, of course you may want your securest protection for that. Anyways, KeePass comes to mind.

Actions have consequences. Certainly there are some people who have chosen to no longer support your examples. Is someone deserving of cheer if they are a shitty human being. Should we excuse their actions if they can entertain us. Should youth aspire to beat their wives so they can be more like Ray, et al.

Let's call this one NiwDogs (pronounced "New-Dogs") corollary. When starting a new thread end it immediately with Hitler, RE: did Hitler ever knock Eva Braun unconscious... no, lets not go there.

If you can wait long enough, you will be served something better. The 2955U is in a different thermal envelope of 15W vs the 7.5 W of the N2830.

Clear your browsing history and auto site logins before an annual review or sudden meeting (without purpose or context). Keep anything personal on a USB drive that you keep with you and not on the work computer.
