“Automated Car” does NOT prevent collision, KILLS driver!

That’s right…they obviously did not do enough testing before allowing automated vehicles to travel with actual passengers in auto mode, on actual highways…because this owner driving a Tessla in “Auto” mode…crashed in to a truck, and the driver was killed. Without hijacking their story, and their images, you can read about the rest of the story here: https://www.techrepublic.com/article/tesla-driver-dies-in-first-fatality-with-autopilot-what-it-means-for-the-future-of-driverless-cars/ …but I have always wondered if this technology just seemed to coming out a little too fast for my comfort. I find it hard to believe that people have put their lives in the hands of this brand new technology. Too soon for comfort for this technician.

Never too small of a job…

Rio Mesa High School class of 1976 Reunion web page

So a local group was having a high school reunion, and they needed just a registration form and a method to pay on the web. They were already registered at a free web site, but it was just a little too complicated, so they called Everything I.T. and we helped them get it and going. It took less than a day. No job is too big, or too small.

So if you need to get something up on the internet, just give us a call. We can definitely help you out, no matter what you need.

Windows 10 update note

Windows 10 update note

Windows10Logo

The “important” update today is another Windows 10 notice that came out…It’s apparently the last big push to get you to update to Windows 10 if you have not. It puts a HUGE blue notification screen on your desktop just to let you know that July 29th is the last day. The update number is kb3173040, and for some reason, they classified it as important (which forces it on to machines that have “important” updates installed automatically…not because it’s actually important.

The fact that Microsoft mis-uses their own tool to push stuff on you that is “NOT” important, should tell you to stay away from this update…but to each his own. I haven’t installed it, and I’m not missing it. I’ve worked on client’s machines that have it…and frankly, it has nothing that Windows 8.1 doesn’t have, except the ability to take control of my machine away from me. So no thanks, I’ll live without it. But you go ahead and do what you want…
