Doubt it. There are no hard indications that he’s a russian asset. He’s just an asshat.

Nah, I just think it’s herd mentality and not wanting to stick out. Critical thinking and nuance doesn’t work well for them if they want to present a united front. They’ve always been like this, at least since I started paying attention some 15-20 yearsago. .
True. I remember some star wars geek on the defensive explaining the parsec screwup as the millennium falcon having a navigational computer capable of calculating a route shorter than any had managed to calculate before.
I for one really like both star trek and star wars, but I’m able to enjoy them for what they are instead of bending over backwards to defend every minutia of the writing as if it’s some religious text.
Time to get a coffee, I think. As a metric person it took me too many tries trying to parse “8.7 meters years old”
Are you telling me they intentionally avoid playing Van Halen - Jump for anyone put on hold?
No.
First we need a better system for resource allocation. Monetary systems are extremely inefficient, but they’re far better than the “trust me, bro” approach of many of the alternatives.
A global post-scarcity society could in theory take over, similar to how it works in Star Trek, but there are a lot of other hurdles that need to be overcome first.
As long as proper distribution of resources requires an effort, it will also need an incentive to do so. Currently this incentive is provided by allowing for a profit margin, and while this does also provide a mechanism for skimming off the top, at least said skimming can be somewhat controlled by a free market ensuring better circumstances for those willing to skim less.
In my book WSL and VM share the same downside in that you’re only abstracting Linux functionality in relation to the hardware.
Linux really shines when it has full access to the actual hardware as opposed to asking it’s environment nicely if it’s allowed to do something.
For example, I routinely need to change my IP address to talk to specific networks and network hosts, but having to step over the virtualisation or interpretation layer to do so is just another step, thus removing the advantage of running linux in the first place.
Sure, VMs and dual booting have their uses, but the same uses can be serviced by an actual linux install while also being infinitely more powerful.
I played around with WSL for a while, but you notice really quickly that it is not the real thing. I’ve used virtual box for some use cases, but that too feels limiting ad all of the hardware you want to fully control is only abstracted.
I would say that unless he has a really good reason why he wouldn’t want to go for dual boot, then he should do just that.

Running any software is inherently unsafe. It’s basically the computer equivalent of eating something given to by a stranger, and you just have to trust them that it’s good for you.
But we do it anyway, simply because we have to - not all of us are software devs with unlimited time on our hands.
It basically comes down to whether you trust the origin or not, as well as check the reviews/comments to gauge the reception of other users. If something fishy is going on, word spreads relatively fast.
Tip: While no means foolproof, if the software in question has a github repo, it adds a layer of trust, because that means anyone can review the source.
Now, imagine this revolutionary improvement: Find a way of putting the energy source outside of the train somehow, and save on weight by not hauling those heavy batteries around.
Christ, the amount of times techbros and tesla fanboys have accidentally “invented” trains and trams these past few years is beyond stupid…
I remember this too, but in the nerdier channels we used regex notation instead.

I will not define insanity or who is or isn’t, but hexbear users’ stances and opinions tend to be missing nuance as one often do when one is terminally online and mostly form opinions based on the reverberations of an echo chamber.
They do occasionally have a golden meme, though. But the amount of shit coming from there got too tiresome, and I could only look past so many genocide denials before I ended up blocking the entire instance.
We will never know the full scale, because that’s classified, but there are some details that we do know, and some that are reasonably safe to assume.
In addition to this, I’d like to point out a major difference in track record between US arms industry and that of russia: US capabilities are usually understated. Russian ones are usually either overstated, or only possible in the most ideal set of circumstances.
Unless there’s a grounding fault somewhere in your house, you should be good. Until tomorrow is probably fine, just make sure that the exposed grounding wire isn’t touching anything conductive in the mean time, and you’re safe even if there is a grounding fault.
If you have a voltmeter, you can measure the voltage between the grounding wire and something conductive that is connected to actual ground, such as a copper pipe or similar. Voltage should be 0 in a healthy electrical installation.
PS: Any tape will do, to be honest, as long as it’s not conductive. The main d9wnside to using duct tape instead of electrical tape is that it’s not according to code, and it looks like ass. But I’ve done it.
Black and blue are the important ones, they’re the ones with the line voltage. From what I can see, they’re both OK, and they have wagos on them.
Under normal circumstances, the grounding wire (green/yellow) shouldn’t carry any voltage, but mistakes and faults happen. While you’ll most likely be fine just covering it as it is, I’d give that wire some treatment too: If you don’t have any wago clamps or similar, just snip off the exposed copper, and wrap some electrical tape around it just to be safe.

By promoting the distros that have this as a goal, such as Mint.
I would suggest Ubuntu in this category, but… eww…
It’s legal, but any income over a certain amount from abroad requires you to register. Guess what they never did. Hence why this legal case is happening.
ISS orbits at ~7.66km/s, so technically any pictured food up there can be considered fast food.
Pretty much when you posted that, I found this in my dmesg:
[ 715.744332] e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: Interrupt Throttling Rate (ints/sec) set to dynamic conservative mode
[ 715.965683] e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid
[ 716.008541] e1000e: probe of 0000:00:1f.6 failed with error -5
Just for the record, I compared modinfo up against lspci, and the PCI ID matches, so the driver should work. Is it possible to ignore the NVM checksum and try anyway? Because any tool I can find that communicates with the EEPROM on a hardware level is made for msdos.
True. There are reports that Elon himself agreed with this in a weekly address to xitter staff, after he thoroughly explained how he takes care to use the right type of lube when rectally inserting cucumbers on himself.
