Modern android OS has an optional lockdown mode that you can enable access to alongside restart/shutdown. And it disables all biometric access until your pin is entered again.

Native slotting into server drive cages. No concerns about alignment with the front or back.

There was a jump between old early gen SATA SSDs and modern NVMe in my opinion, but it’s really only noticable if you’re running something like a game with a huge amount of data to load, and you’re actively comparing the two.

My old PC had several different hard drives of differing types and I’d periodically be too lazy to move a game from one drive to another so I’d play it off different drives over a period of time, and was able to compare the loading times.

So I’d say they’re faster, but it’s nowhere near the leap that HDD to SSD was.

The Internet becoming algorithm and bot driven was the point of no return I think.

This. As automation increases, fewer of us should have to work. A significant issue with the Soviet Union and their legendary inefficiency is that every one had the right to a job even if there were no jobs to be done. Leading to them creating unnecessary intermediary positions at every level of the system.

Basic income, sure. And people should be educated. But beyond that, encourage the people who don’t need to work to pursue art or other ends. Get them involved in community activities. But work towards a society of leisure if possible.

This is just a modern iteration of the book HOLES, and it takes place in a landfill instead of a dry lakebed.

Hey, they’re useful as a pithy response generator, especially to someone asking for something stupid in person, which is how I use mine. Also decent for moments of indecision lol.

It would be one thing if Trump was actually anti-trust…but he isn’t.

He’s anti companies which don’t prostrate themselves in front of him and bow to his whims. They’re bad, terrible, anti American companies. The ones that do are great, wonderful, beautiful companies. The bad ones need to be broken up and given to the big ones.

He’s so transparent it’s painful. If someone says good things about Trump or give him money, they’re good. If they don’t, they’re bad. It’s absurdly obvious.

Lmao we’ll be playing it in full dive VR in 2045

It also fixes one of the number one switch components to break - the little plastic toggles that lock the joycons in.

I have it for fan/led management on my pc and it has so much potential, but overall is just so bad and has so little support.

I just want to skip from here to getting murdered by a Megan Fox sexbot maid

It’s because if Texas claimed territory above where the northern border currently is, they wouldn’t have been allowed to join the Union as a slave state.

A few of my friends and myself ended up with the network admin password, so we had full administrative access to every computer. Ah, the good old days.

Bro just use your phone. If it’s android, use AIReader. Free, incredibly configurable, can read every type of book file. Dark mode, adjustable brightness for reading before bed. It gets so dark that I can’t even read the minimum setting in a pitch black room. Best e-reader app I’ve ever found and I’ve been using it for probably 10 years now.
