Real life is not like TV. High quality counterfeit papers that stand up to scrutiny are very hard to get. The only way to get ones that are guaranteed to work is by having someone at the state department who can issue them or buying them from someone with those kind of connections. And the odds are good that the fads have honeypots set up to catch people trying to get fake documents.
He did the right thing at the cost of his own safety and wellbeing. If that’s not a hero I don’t know what is.
At the same time he basically had to cooperate with the Russians because they tend to torture and kill those who don’t.
He’s a survivor.
What would you have done differently than him? Die?
I like it as a platform but the userbase just isn’t there.
I’ve been using a cheap N200 laptop as a testbed for novel OS kernel development and it’s absolutely perfect.
The LattePanda Mu is configurable and can operate on as little as 6W up to 35W depending on your use case. The much more affordable Radxa X4 can operate on as little as 18W up to 25W if you need to power peripherals via USB.
Both use an Intel Processor N100 SoC which is surprisingly powerful and efficient given that the Processor N series is the new branding for what used to be called Celeron.
The prices are also competitive. The X4 for example sells for exactly the same price as the Raspberry Pi 5 with the same amount of memory at every memory capacity tier while having a CPU that’s twice as powerful and compatible with way more software and OSes and a GPU that is absurdly more powerful and fully publicly documented such that there are open source drivers for every OS under the sun.
As an OS developer both professionally and outside of work I have to say I really despise non-x86 platforms and ARM in particular for how fragmented they are and their vendors’ utter disregard for any form of standardization at the platform, firmware, or peripheral levels. That’s why I’m really thankful that devices like these exist and are affordable.
Lower power draw is about it. But there are now x86 SBCs that can also run on as little as 6W so there’s no reason to compromise and use ARM’s non-standard fragmented BS.
Every law student studies con law and all lawyers are trained to do legal research on topics they don’t know offhand.
Better than most of Trump’s lawyers.
They get paid on commission which is why they always put their stickers on anything you buy so the store knows who sold it to you.
Me with Microcenter employees.
No. They would be morons and vote against socialism even if it’s good for them.
Good let them eat each other.
I accept our new Scandinavian overlords. But I would rather have it be Finland.
Plead permanent sanity. If I was the judge I would let you go.
I strongly disagree.
I hate that schools basically teach students to over use classes for everything especially by using Java as a teaching language and then they get into the real world or grad school and we have to unteach them those terrible habits.
I’m so glad a lot of the newer languages (Rust, Go, Zig, C3, V) don’t have classes in them at all.
Obfuscation Oriented Programming as I call it
Compared to Reddit the userbase here is miniscule.
