Zero click hacks often find exploits in the victims OS, places where protocols run automatically. Stuff like Bluetooth device identification, wifi, sms protocols. I'm certainly no expert, but they are rare and highly coveted, and nation-states spend a lot of resources finding them. Ethical hackers also look for them, to notify the software/hardware creators and get them fixed.

I've been using bazzite for about 7 months I think. I use my PC for Internet and gaming stuff for the most part, not a "workstation" user.

I prefer it to relying on windows, and I find lots of cool interesting things I didn't know I'd like in kde plasma.

The built in app store, Bazzar, is really well tailored for gamers, plus lots of other utilities and such.

The "immutable" build of Bazzite (universal blue fedora) just means you'll be installing most stuff as flatpak packages "on top of" your OS like apps on a phone. If you need something that isn't built to be installed like that, you'll have to spin up a container of the distro it expects, but I did that within a week and it wasn't too hard.

I'm still running a 1080ti, so I'm not exactly peak hardware or performance chasing. Only problems with games so far are shitty DRM or Anticheats, and I don't like competitive multiplayer stuff anyway. Check protondb for your favorites.

It's stable. I don't think I've ever "crashed" or "blue screened" my OS. Did have 1 lockup where I had to turn it off manually.

Expect to make "gamer rbg ram" levels of sacrifice in a few places, as with all free/foss/not mainstream products.

My grandma does the same for Costco('s) lol

That's not a smoking gun, that's a shitty chain email joke. It's slightly suspicious but I need more evidence than that.

I just watched it, and it was good imo. I played the game a couple years ago I think, and while the film felt indie in several places, I think they did a really good job with the budget and team they had.

The effects were pretty good (except some of the sub shaking scenes), the dialogue got a little mumbly, and they captured the feeling of the game. I'd say well done, and I'd like to see more people shoot for the moon with movies based on games. Hollywood sucks at it after all.

He does bring up that natural gas is still a single use fuel. His argument was that it's better than oil because it's domestic, not better than solar and batteries. Also you missed the political call out of you only watched half an hour.

I just used the calc, it's closer to 152 years. Which I assume means acceleration at 1g for about a year to reach .999c, and deceleration for the same time.

I just confirmed with dV= a*t, a year of 1g(9.8m/s/s) gets you just over the speed of light. I think it's more complicated than that, If I remember right relativistic speeds require more and more energy to accelerate so you can't ever "reach" light speed.

Took me 3 tries to finish it, and I basically had to be firm with myself to only play that and not get distracted by other games.

It's very good, but it's one of those games you need to play in a relatively focused way, like watching a movie.

I only did that once on an Apollo style mun mission when I realized I didn't put any rcs on it after 2 hours of mission. Took a few quick loads so I had enough fuel left to get back.

100%. I tested mine with calls and making sure the wifi and Bluetooth didn't go through.

You can also buy faraday bags, if you want a phone available but not online. But it's still there physically so burner would still be a good choice.

 

 
 
 

Currently trying to come up with a way to make them more than one at a time.

 

About an inch deep all along one side of the sheet, it split in half.

 

Barfeeder again! About a minute per.

 

About 1:30 each on the bar feeder, 6061 Aluminum.

 

It's o-rings and spacers stacked and compressed, pushing the o-ring out like an expansion collet.

 

From 1" 12L14, about 20' of stock. Barfeeders are great.

 

The company didn't pay the mortgage for over a year, and our nearly new lathe got very rusty.
