Finally! I hope Linux 7 can live up to the OG

It’s not a law but a practice that cops do in order to use dubiously acquired evidence to build a case against someone.

Doesn’t mean they can’t use it for parallel construction

Have you met a MAGAT?

They’re all cowards.

They talk a big game but if you ever even show them an ounce of resistance or defiance they turn tail and run. There’s a reason they love guns so much, it’s a fucking power totem/the only thing that makes them feel manly. They are feckless cowards and because they think them and their ilk are the only ones armed they can use it to get their way.

They forget that some of us don’t announce we’re packing and will only use it as a last fucking resort. We’re not bloodthirsty animals who wish to cause needless death, since we have fucking empathy, unlike them.

That’s the thing though, I’m pretty sure all of them have an unlocking requirement at some point from the FCC. Depending on how you read the law that should include the bootloader. Verizon especially is screwed on that regard since they can’t “restrict what applications a handset user can use on the device” (paraphrased from their agreement). I’m pretty sure if I bought a Pixel from Verizon and wanted to use GrapheneOS on it, their bootloader lock is preventing that and they’re in violation of the terms of the agreement.

If we had a more favorable FCC it would be trivial to start a class action over that could literally include most Verizon customers (and second hand device buyers) since they made that agreement with the FCC. The damages would probably be $50-100 (time and effort of trying to get Verizon to do their fucking job) per device up to the cost of devices (they’re not fit for purpose). Like either way that’s either a substantial blow up to a death sentence for them.

When we take our dogs to my parents once they realize where we are they get all excited and start staring out the windshield as if to say “Go faster!”

Once we get there we open the car door and they run inside (because they know they’re gonna get a treat)

My parents spoil both of them and get all the treats they want and my mom will make stuff like beef or chicken to add to their kibble as a topper.

How they’re not a billion pounds each each time they leave I’ll never know

Evidence:

That big bed my parents specifically got for our greyhound because he’s so big and likes to stretch out, but his old bones don’t really let him lay on hard floor anymore

It’s actually cheaper to use the USB 3 A ports then it is to use the USB C ports. There’s a lot less wiring (and circuitry) that needs to be done for this amount of ports. A full spec USB C port has somewhere between 20-24 pins that are all used if you need USB 3.x speeds. A USB 3 A port has 9 that are used for full data speed. It’s orders of magnitude less annoying to run that many traces on a board and keep the data speeds where they need to be.

Okay look, some of the math I do on a daily basis is like 5 levels above basic addition (it looks like I’ve written a whole ass sentences of gibberish) but like what if they changed it? I’d rather be sure that 2+2 still equals 4 than be wrong and the thing I’m working on ends up making expensive sounds.

There’s also just removing the cognitive load of having to process this information. You’re allowed to look up the answer (that’s what a calculator and the slide rule do).

Using the tools you have to speed up your work doesn’t make you a worse engineer than those in the past. You’re building off their work so you don’t have to constantly literally reinvent the wheel.
