An unenlightened attitude. If people are calling the helpdesk often enough for it to be a genuine hassle, the process is the problem. IT is supposed to work for the company, not vice versa.
Forcing people to change their passwords every so often, for example, is not only considered poor security practice at this point, but is guaranteed to cause grief for IT when the user has to be reminded constantly to connect via VPN first. I have managed to desynchronize my Windows and company SSO passwords a couple of times myself, in the process of changing my password from StupidpasswordpolicyNtoStupidpasswordpolicyN+1 every quarter.

Now there's a name I haven't heard for a LONG time, as a former Dell employee. He must have, what, a two-digit badge number?
Retire already, Jeff. The world has moved on.

Is there a reason they want to remove the choice?
Because (a) they're the government; (b) they have more guns than you; and (c) pick up that can.

The people breaking into Mexico are doing so only because it's in the way to the US.

When people risk their lives trying to break out of your country, your country is a failure.

It really is as simple as that.

We will see how it fares now that is in on its own.
It will fail, just as it is intended to fail.
After you notice for the first time that Putin looks at Kim with envy and not the other way around, everything that has happened in Russia since the attack on Ukraine starts to make perfect sense.

Be sure to smile for the cameras when you do. You might land a spot in the next Borat sequel if Rudy Giuliani kicks the bucket.

I don't understand the appeal of Powerwalls myself -- wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy a couple of forklift batteries and an inverter? -- but I don't see how it's a 'daft idea.'
What drawbacks/weak points are you alluding to? Just the expense?

What did they expect would happen when they sold out to FB?
Fortunes that would shame the kings of Old Arabia.
Which they got. You can't shake the Devil's hand and then ghost him after the check clears.

Do you believe that the quality of the reporting in this case deserves one?

The usual reason is because the being has threatened you with eternal punishment if you don't kiss His ass.
It's all about "free will," you see.

JD Power's reliability ratings are useless. In their world, the roof blowing off the car at highway speed is ranked as the same kind of 'defect' as a dropped Bluetooth connection.
