Windows 10 Announced
Stoic Joker:
I can confirm the CPU-Z disappearance, as it pulled mine ... However it did stop and tell me what it was doing when it did it.

What exactly did it tell you? I'm trying to see Microsoft's reasoning... and I just don't get it.

Not sure how exact I can be, as I'd setoff the install and walked away. I just don't have the patience with progress bars that I used to.. IIRC when I was signing in for the first time, it popped up a message that said it was no longer compatible with 10 and had been removed.

Is this more security or less security? It means someone could force you to log in against your will, by holding your face to the camera by force, which they couldn't do if you refused to give them the password.

Let's face it. If someone is going to use brute force I am going to give them the password. I forgot all my Green Beret training, having never been in the military. But now that I think of it, I would rather tell someone the password rather than have them take my thumb or my face with them when they left. It is still losing face, but at least not literally. :Thmbsup:

Yeah, I was thinking of extreme cases, where one would rather die than hand over access, such as when being captured by the enemy or protecting loved ones...
I wonder if the facial recognition software cares whether the face belongs to a person that is still alive... Or if it can tell if it's my twin brother, not me...
