Good Morning Dr Borg.

Morning Josey

Found this kid of interesting, I know as tech ages it comes down in price, but I always thought TV's were pretty cheap for all the features they have.

But that low price comes with a caveat most people probably don't realize: Some manufacturers collect data about users and sell that data to third parties. The data can include the types of shows you watch, which ads you watch, and your approximate location.

Good day all.

Hope everyone who got snowed in got themselves dug out.

We got like 10 flakes... very weird winter.

Got a machine to work on yesterday.... still on v1511

Someone had applied group policy changes to prevent checking of updates and either forgot to tell client or client forgot to check.

If you are into stars and moons

Morning Ken,

Streets are clear & it's cold, still snow laying around. Just in time for the next blast, supposedly on Thur.

Unfortunately you're probably right. Just about everything wants to know what you do nowadays.
