Windows 10 Updates

By

There are currently 3 supported versions of Windows 10:
1703 (Creators Update), 1709 (Fall Creators Update), and 1803 (April 2018).
This last week has seen updates to all 3 (Windows 10 update history):
1703 – May 17, 2018—KB4103722 (OS Build 15063.1112)
1709 – May 21, 2018—KB4103714 (OS Build 16299.461)
1803 – May 23, 2018—KB4100403 (OS Build 17134.81)

All of these are “quality” releases, what the rest of the computing world calls “bugfixes”.
1803 supposedly fixed the problem with some SSDs.

Amazon urged not to sell facial recognition tool to police
“People should be free to walk down the street without being watched by the government,” the groups wrote in a letter to Amazon on Tuesday. “Facial recognition in American communities threatens this freedom.”

This is America’s favorite burger brand
“Five Guys is America’s favorite burger chain, according to Harris Poll’s 30th annual EquiTrend study.
Harris surveyed a total of 77,031 people to determine the “brand equity” of 17 different burger chains — Jack in the Box, Hardee’s, White Castle, Carl’s Jr., Checkers/Rally’s, DQ Grill & Chill, Burger King, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, SONIC America’s Drive-In, Five Guys, In-N-Out Burger, Culver’s, Steak ‘n Shake, Whataburger, Shake Shack, Smashburger.”
NO. No to every single one of them. Agreed, some of these burgers will do in the absence of a non-chain alternative and almost any burger is better than a salad.
#1 burger. Grilled. Grilled on the back deck. Grilled over the fire at the campsite. Bonus points for bacon.

Monopoly
“Oh, yes, of course Google’s a monopoly. In fact they’re a monopoly in several markets. They’re a monopoly in search. They’re a monopoly in search advertising…People tell their search engines things they wouldn’t even tell their wives. I mean, it’s a very powerful and yet very intimate technology. And that gives the company that controls it a mind-boggling degree of control over our entire society.”

A bug in cell phone tracking firm’s website leaked millions of Americans’ real-time locations
“It represents a clear and present danger, not just to privacy but to the financial and personal security of every American family. Because they value profits above the privacy and safety of the Americans whose locations they traffic in, the wireless carriers and LocationSmart appear to have allowed nearly any hacker with a basic knowledge of websites to track the location of any American with a cell phone”

Secunia PSI Dead
“Thank you for your interest in PSI. PSI is Flexera’s free computer security solution that identifies missing security patches on user’s private PC, and automatically installs them when possible. This product has reached End-of-life on April 20, 2018, and therefore, no longer available. Existing installations of PSI will no longer function and should be uninstalled.”
Apparently this is old news. Thanks Mike.

*** No longer being actively maintained due to lack of page hits, despite being the most accurate list and map.

“Breweries” is a loose term and can be a: brewery, tap house, brewpub…

Qualifications:
Be independent. By my definition. For starters, this means not being owned by “big beer”. Good baseline here: Craft Brewer Defined

If you carry the above label you qualify but not having it doesn’t disqualify you.
– Not a national chain resturant / brewhouse.
– You have to make at least one beer on site.

Help Wanted
Additions, subtractions, mistakes, complaints? Please let me know.
This info was gathered from many sources too numerous to list. I’ve done my own work, please do not steal it.
For publishing info please contact me.

Website Links
Having a website is a necessary part of owning a business. A Facebook page is not a website. Pony up a few dollars and get your 12 year old neice or nephew to set you up a WordPress site.
I do not, will not, won’t not link to social media pages.

When We Wake Up, Will It Be Too Late?

The Selfish Ledger
iVerge managed to get their hands on a 2016 internal video from Google. The video is embedded in the magazine style header at the top of the page. Someone uploaded a copy to YouTube if you prefer. There is also an excellent video breakdown of the issue at the bottom of the article worth watching. I would recommend watching it first. YouTube video here.
If this video doesn’t creep you out then either you don’t understand it or there is something wrong with you. Google plays this off as a “thought experiment”. Maybe, but it sure is a telling one.

“The Selfish Ledger positions Google as the solver of the world’s most intractable problems, fueled by a distressingly intimate degree of personal information from every user and an ease with guiding the behavior of entire populations. There’s nothing to suggest that this is anything more than a thought exercise inside Google, initiated by an influential executive. But it does provide an illuminating insight into the types of conversations going on within the company that is already the world’s most prolific personal data collector.“

Is this the future? Will we become what “they” want us to become? And, who watches the watchers?

It’s OK To Be Evil
With it’s bad behavior and publicity, I’m sure Google was tired of getting it’s “Don’t be evil” motto thrown back it’s face.
Solution? Remove the motto.

This is an interactive table and map of breweries owned by United States Armed Forces Veterans.

As a veteran and craft beer lover it is my honor to put together and host this information. It is my hope you will use this to patronize these establishments or buy their beer where you can find it.
Please share any missing or inaccurate data.
This page is for beer only, breweries only (as in you have to make at least one beer on site).

Viral, feel-good video of the week.

Some calories more harmful than others
Short version – Soft drinks are bad for you. There was a time when I drank 2 liters of Coca-Cola a day. No exaggeration. I don’t remember the last time I had one.
On a side note. I find it amusing that we Americans call carbonated soft drinks by different names. I have found that.
– In the Great Lakes and mid-west areas it is called “pop”
– Most places in Northeast megalopolis call it “soda”
– Many place out west call it “soda pop”
– Down South, everything is “co-cola”
