This is GRUB’s final warning before you dig too deep in the OS list. Never hold ⬇️ for more than 45 minutes. If you do, make sure you have punch tape with a bootloader available or you'll have to manually enter machine code instructions to get your computer back up.

The hole in the fuselage that caused them to be sucked out was actually made by one of them in a suicide/homicide. Very tragic. Somebody invest in mental health please!

Because

  1. When the internet was rolling out, a decentralized, open, best-effort solution of TCP/IP thankfully won over telephone companies' centralized system proposal
  2. IPv6 is still not universal for some damn reason
  3. Onion addresses solve these problems but good luck getting everyone aboard with Tor
  4. You always trade anonymity for reachability, and with the amount of threats, NAT and firewalls have been put up to make it harder for unsolicited requests to reach you by default

Oh, I forgot about the quality of US infrastrure. If an engineer needs to make a voice call to communicate to unpower the line because a train has derailed, that's a systemic problem. I think all metros in the EU have telemetry and any major railway implements ETCS. Weird that "safety first" means that schoolkids cannot see the eclipse but public transport infrastructure gets way underfunded.

Also, a certain "blue line" keeps going off the rails in the US. I read this out of context and thought the police staged a riot.

Why? Passenger trains and subways are already very safe thanks to remote control & monitoring systems, Deadman's switches etc. Many urban rail sstems don't use drivers at all! Is there a subway accident from the past 20 years that could have been prevented with an extra driver?

Sure, no algorithm is able to extract any more information from a single photo. But how about combining detail caught in multiple frames of video? Some phones already do this kind of thing, getting multiple samples for highly zoomed photos thanks to camera shake.

Still, the problem remains that the results from a cherry-picked algorithm or outright hand-crafted pics may be presented.

I wonder if there is a notification ad blocker with community-submittted sets of regex patterns that root users can use.

You two can stop now. It's not funny.
