              Is LastPass being spun off or is it still owned by log me in?

                I wonder if they'll remove the tracking junk now? Probably not.

                    Looks like they will also offer dedicated servers with ESXi on them.

                          Indestructible 'Black Box' will record our planet's demise in minute detail

                          By Cameron Duke
                          The disaster recorder aims to set us on a better path by watching our every move.
                          ...
                          The solar-powered vault will be roughly the length of a school bus and the shape of an upside-down curb stop, and the entire thing will be encased in 3-inch-thick (7.5 centimeters) steel designed to withstand catastrophe, just as an airplane's black box is built to withstand an impact. And just like a black box is tucked away in the safest part of a plane, Earth's Black Box will be placed in the most secure location on Earth, which is Tasmania, apparently. When it goes online, Earth's Black Box will be filled with hard drives recording and storing climate-related information, ABC News Australia reported.

                                            Microsoft fixes harebrained Y2K22 Exchange bug that disrupted email worldwide
                                            A rookie programming error crashed servers because they couldn't process the year 2022.
                                            DAN GOODIN - 1/3/2022, 4:47 PM

                                            Microsoft has released a fix for a harebrained Exchange Server bug that shut down on-premises mail delivery around the world just as clocks were chiming in the new year.

                                            The mass disruption stemmed from a date check failure in Exchange Server 2016 and 2019 that made it impossible for servers to accommodate the year 2022, prompting some to call it the Y2K22 bug. The mail programs stored dates and times as signed integers, which max out at 2147483647, or 231 - 1. Microsoft uses the first two numbers of an update version to denote the year it was released. As long as the year was 2021 or earlier, everything worked fine.
