Being that this is a Star Trek post I'll just add this.

Lt. Cmdr. Data: "Sir, our sensors are showing this to be the absence of everything. It is a void without matter or energy of any kind."

Commander Riker: "Yet this hole has a form, Data; it has height, width..."

Lt. Cmdr. Data: "Perhaps. Perhaps not, Sir."

Captain Picard: "That's hardly a scientific observation, Commander."

Lt. Cmdr. Data: "Captain, the most elementary and valuable statement in science, the beginning of wisdom, is, "I do not know". I do not know what that is, Sir."

Clearly she just hadn't had her coffee yet! On a serious note though I have to agree with @Corgana@startrek.website. The evolving definition of "medical death" as more of a logistical necessity than anything is something that I never really thought about before.

Naw it was perfectly clear. People just need to read past the first sentence.

Seriously! I know that BLUF is a thing but do that many people seriously not read past the first line before feeling the need to correct someone on the internet? @ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca as a fellow member of the human race let me formally thank you for forming a question, seeking out information that either confirms or denies your question, and informing everyone else who may have had the same misconception.

You know where the door is.

I agree that cybersecurity features should be included. In fact I think they should be included for free. The problem is that Microsoft wanted to charge the Department of Defense and it sounds like they used politics to make sure they could, and if true then they (and maybe also the DoD?) may have violated some federal laws around government procurement and "gifts" from contractors to the government.

Unironically this movie is in my top 5 favorite trek movies. It counts.

Sorry to necro this but I just saw in the latest LTT vid that apparently Microsoft did go through with this plan? They were talking about it in the context of the diskless xbox that just released. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/all/how-to-transfer-content-licenses/7ac76f4e-c7e4-4153-8824-1e424478b02d

Having to fly under the radar or risk financial ruin doesn't sound like ownership to me.
