The latest episode of Microsoft Is Poking Me Through The Windows involves a pop-up message that appears in Windows 10's purpose-built notification center. It reads: "Microsoft recommends different browser settings. Want to change them?" I fancy most people would sniff: "Oh, do please run along. I'm perfectly happy with my settings, whatever they are, and I have a lot to do today, thank you." Redmond, though, is undeterred. The notification adds that you'll get "Search that gives you back time and money." And "fast and secure search results with Bing." Oh, yes. Bing, the MySpace to Google's Facebook, is still...

Dr. Anthony Fauci and First Lady Jill Biden visited a New York City vaccination center on Sunday where they addressed the press with a few short remarks and left before taking any questions. Fauci shared his gratitude with Harlem’s Abyssinian Baptist Church and those operating the clinic for spreading the word about coronavirus vaccine distribution. "We’re going to end this outbreak for absolutely certain," he said. "And the vehicle to ending it is vaccination." Jill Biden then encouraged the "faith community" to get the word out about being vaccinated, and the pair turned away from the cameras.

In 1960, the first survey dedicated to the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) was mounted at the Green Bank Observatory in West Virginia. This was Project Ozma, which was the brainchild of famed astronomer and SETI pioneer Frank Drake (for whom the Drake Equation is named). Since then, the collective efforts to find evidence of life beyond Earth have coalesced to create a new field of study known as astrobiology. The search for extraterrestrial life has been the subject of renewed interest thanks to the thousands of exoplanets that have been discovered in recent years. Unfortunately, our efforts are still...

It was starting out to be such a great summer, but then… Foot-dragging states like California and New York were beginning to catch up with the rest of us in Texas, Florida and other smart places which long ago reopened our restaurants, movie theaters and other businesses… abandoning myopic “mask mandates” while watching our COVID-19 numbers plummet. Tunnel-vision publishers like Simon & Schuster, which cancelled U.S. Senator Josh Hawley’s stunningly important book The Tyranny of Big Tech, saw Salem Media’s Regnery Publishing pick it up and reap the profits. And Dr. Fauci was pulled down from his pedestal as even...

Companies can make their employees who are returning to the job get vaccinated against Covid-19.But so far, few companies have decided to move forward, as many are still engaging in internal debates about how to safely restore their offices to operations that resemble what they were before the pandemic.
