Brilliant! I wish my #bank 's #ATM was like this!
Right now, I have to cover my PIN-entering hand with my other hand, and then do a whole bunch of fake button presses, in order to hopefully confuse any hidden cameras. Hopefully. Maybe. It's absolutely maddening, and it probably isn't actually secure because real button presses require more force than fake ones.
If only the keypad was randomized like this, entering my #PIN securely would be easy. 😭

A million qubits? Last I heard, the best we could do was a few thousand. If that's what it takes to break #RSA, then RSA isn't going anywhere.

Out of curiosity, why *is* it not flying in a straight line? Curvature of the Earth or something?
You'd think they'd love it if everyone worked from home, then. Don't have to pay for office space at all if your employees are already paying for their offices.
That and you can decorate a cubicle. Individuality still exists in a cube farm. In an open floor, you may as well be a Borg.
Millennial here. I only briefly worked in a cubicle, when I was young, but I liked it as an environment. Not sure why the previous generation hated them so much.
Meanwhile, GNU Units can do that, reliably and consistently, on a freaking 486. 😂
What do humans do? Does the human brain have different sections for language processing and arithmetic?
I did say touch typing on a thumb keyboard is slower. I also said it's far faster than what I can do on a (normal non-folding no-physical-keyboard) phone.
If you can touch type on your foldable phone's touchscreen keyboard, where you can't feel the boundaries between the keys, then I'm impressed. I didn't think that was possible.
Comparing desktop and phone market share is iffy because a lot of people have both and I don't believe there are any reliable statistics on the subject to use in our debate.
As for foldables, was it not your argument that you'd rather use one in place of a laptop? If it's meant to be just a phone with a bigger screen, I guess that's cool, but I'd still want to have a computer with a real keyboard and operating system available to me.

No, my desire for autonomy is showing. My Linux PC is my computer and it responds to my decree, as a certain hammy Skyrim character would put it. Android and iOS have the audacity to tell me what I'm allowed to do with my own device, which as far as I'm concerned makes them unserious.
You are of course welcome to disagree with my opinion.
My argument for convertible laptops is that, if you want a tablet for whatever reason, you can have your tablet without the downsides.

So, exactly the same as it's always been? The very first large-scale cyberattack, the Morris Worm, was carried out by a 22-year-old college student, mostly for the purpose of curiosity.
