23andMe hit with £2.3M fine after exposing genetic data of millions

Not Nearly Enough

The fines are not remotely near any form of punishment for the data breach. Plus there is no form of compensation to the affected parties .If the £2.3mn actually gets paid, who receives it exactly ??

Firefox is dead to me – and I'm not the only one who is fed up

Not Dead To Me ^^

I have used Firefox since its birth. Over the years it has had(Still Has) issues here and there with compatibility on certain websites . Memory usage has had problems along the way but as i am typing this comment i have 44 tabs open and its using 2.7gb of ram (not bad in my opinion) , there has been times(builds) where its been 10+gb on certain builds with less tabs open.

On more recent builds(within last year) , some heavily scripted sites (facebook , some gambling sites) cause crashes after a certain period of use.

The things they are dropping going forward are not things i use myself, but i understand this might be an issue for others.

I can't do without the plugins for Firefox that i use daily, and the layout is exactly the way i like it. Im just to old for change i guess and Firefox is kinda in my DNA now. The only thing that will make me stop using Firefox is they actually stop developing it.

Vlad the blockader: Russia's anti-VPN law comes into effect

Is anyone really surprised by this ??. Guess it would be hard for you average Ruskie to comprehend that we eat cornflakes while watching Eastenders & WhatsApping our bits on the side pictures of our freshly shaven genitalia , and smoke a fat green one every 30 mins whilst living on benefits. Our biggest worry is our phone going below 5% charge.

These Russians can read minds and hack you bigtime. NATALIA from Russia emails me every day offering me sex and to look at her photos. She really knows what I'm into and it worries me that she has placed a Krack infested Wi-Fi router under my house that links my thoughts directly to the Kremlin.

44m UK consumers on Equifax's books. How many pwned? Blighty eagerly awaits spex on the breach

Re: The only good thing about the 44 million number

Pfft ......... these people you speak of (political class) don't need credit. They use dodgy accounts held in Bermuda along with Jimmy Carr. It's only us minions up to our eyeballs in debt that have their data in the hands of these types of companies.

Facebook is abusive. It's time to divorce it

Windows live spaces was actually better in many ways, shame it died a death :(

Smart meter benefits even crappier than originally thought

I have been saving my own farts in glass bottles for the past 20 years and i can offer anyone a PAYG type contract for future gas needs, whilst saving the planet with the costs and destruction caused by recycling glass. All i need is your BANK DETAILS !!

Russia shoves antitrust probe into Microsoft after Kaspersky gripes about Windows 10

Who would actually want to run 2 security suites at once ???

Microsoft's done a terrible job with its Windows 10 nagware

You are all NAGS

The comments on these posts are pointless and just people out looking for a good NAG/MOAN.

If you don't want windows 10, USE the internet and find out how to block these updates and GWX.

If you wanna jump ship to linux/osx, then do so. The world would be boring if everyone drove a ford car.

If you have a problem with MS products after installation, contact MS.

Wipe away the tears and BE HAPPY !!

Happy birthday, Amiga: The 'other' home computer turns 30

Was The Mutts Nutts

Probably the best machine ever invented and had some of the best games ever written for it. Nothing graphically outstanding by today's standards of course.

Many many many hours of my life spent on sensible soccer, cannon fodder, pinball dreams etc.

Those were real games on a real machine !!!!!!!! and funnily never needed any updates or patches.

Intel's new top-dog desktop 'Extreme' CPU fails to excite geekerati

Upgrades have not been worthwhile since a core 2 duo/quad to be honest , the numbers might have changed a bit when using apps when benchmarking but in the real world .......... not much has changed
