Win10 Feature Update Offline Time Cut
Microsoft claims to have cut the amount of time in takes to install the bi-annual updates. They state they knocked the update time from CU to FCU from 82 to 51 minutes and then 30 minutes for those currently running the Insider builds. They are just doing more of the install process while you are trying to use your computer instead of offline.

Neowin has the best and most concise article on this topic. There is almost nothing I’m interested except maybe the new Diagnostics Data Viewer.
The Ultimate Computer
An autonomous Uber car killed a pedestrian.
The idea of self-driving cars creeps me the hell out. I know this kinda “Hey kids, get off my lawn” of me but it is the way I feel. I’ve always felt this way. I blame Star Trek: The Ultimate Computer.
GET OFF OF FACEBOOK
Cambridge Analytica got access to 50 million Facebook users data. They did this by lying to 270,000 people and getting them to install an app. The app accessed “data about where they lived, their friends lists, and their likes.” Then the app scraped “data not just from 270,000 people who downloaded it, but from their friend networks as well, resulting in the harvesting of data from more than 50 million accounts.”
The issue is bad enough that this morning Facebook will hold an emergency meeting to let employees ask questions about Cambridge Analytica and Alex Stamos, Facebook Data Security Chief, To Leave Amid Outcry.
