The funny thing is agg. battery is a felony in Illinois which means he would lose his right to vote.

Yes, it is huge in the history of Palestine since the UN partition plan https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bd/UN_Palestine_Partition_Versions_1947.jpg (note that the city of Jerusalem was given to neither side) I would wager that "after the fall" of Jerusalem, Bibi turned his head towards Gaza to "finish the job". Golan Heights/Lebanon will be an ongoing genocide beyond Bibi's and even our lifetimes.

Etcher itself has advertisements for https://www.balena.io/ products while your USB drive is being written.

Not all linux systems are running a desktop GUI, for example...most servers. /edit to add or expand/ I use Etcher on my laptop but I use the command line with my server in the closet...plug in the USB, go back to my laptop and do everything remotely.

Also, as a linux user/admin for 25+ years I've seen these apps come and go. Inevitably the app gains so much popularity that the dev wants some money for it... so they add advertising to the app. Then some other app comes along to replace it, rinse and repeat indefinitely. If your shell commands are POSIX-compliant, they'll last for decades or more.

I definitely appreciate your words and completely understand what you're saying. I finished reading your blog and like your "raw" perspective. You should update it with an "where I've been, where I am and where I'm going" post. It feels like a short story, over the span of several years, but you have a bit of a cliff hanger there 😉

I had a bunch of other stuff written but I removed it because it was scatter-brained and all over the place. I may in fact reach out to you for conversation. While our bearings might not be the same, I think there's a lot to learn and I like your style.

After 25 years in tech I'm starting to look for my "out". I have a ton of experience with electrical (signals/rf too), plumbing, mechanical, woodworking, finishing, engines, etc There isn't much I can't fix. As far as nautical experience goes, I'm a novice but I recently went through a small boat certification course and planning on being a "trailer sailor" for a couple years or more to build up experience. I grew up near Charleston SC harbor, and I think the ocean is calling me back.

A couple of questions; how do you find work or how does work find you? Do you have a home base where your tools are located or are you doing these jobs in "random" ports you travel to? (You can message me if you don't want to share your industry secrets publicly 😉 )

/edit Found your blog so I got some reading to do.

Alternatively, you may run the projects using the Docker warrior instance without the VM appliance. For further info, see our GitHub repository for Readme instructions. If you have any issues or feedback, chat on #warrior on hackint.

Yep. When I see headlines "I made millions of dollars with Bitcoin" I giggle inside.

fluid ounce, since most liquids used in food are nearly the same density.

/edit to add to this, after a cup most things that are dry are not measure in pints, quarts or gallons. For example, you don't hear anyone say "you'll need 1 pint of flour", they'll just say 4 cups.
