You mean African, European...

You don't get to complain about Harris contradicting herself while supporting Trump. That is one of the most hypocritical decisions possible.

Yes, for that purpose there are any number of Chinese mini PCs you could use that would do the job at least as well. I just ordered a slightly older machine with a 5825U, 32GB of dual channel memory, and a 1TB nVME SSD for under $300. It has the same architecture as my primary desktop (Zen 3) so it will be convenient, I can reuse binaries even if I build them for this architecture specifically, and only need one set of compilers for distcc. The SoC TDP is 15W. It's under $600 for a more modern system but power consumption is very important for my specific use case (it's meant to be the PC in an RV and sip power from the solar equipment) so I went with this older chip. The newer one is only about 40% more powerful for three times the consumption...

Do you have a Gen 2 board, did you get lucky with your storage devices, or did you use an addin host adapter?

I don't care if a game has to run in proton any more, since the performance is now so good. And when proton starts using ntsync it will be even better.

You posted a lot of links for someone who doesn't care. Is this your job?

We all heard of warp speed. It wasn't his idea and any president would have said yes to it. He then flubbed the COVID response in literally every other way, so no he doesn't deserve any credit. He also refused to pay for any vaccinations up front, while Dolly Parton provided since actual funding for development, so a country singer did more to promote the development of vaccines than the president did.

The problem here is that people cannot seem to understand that "private" and "privacy" are related but not the same thing. Private is what happens in my house that nobody outside should be privy to. Privacy is the illusion that everything we do is private. I liken this to being photographed and filmed in public and the Karen's crying "don't video me". No Karen, I can and WILL video you in public and there is nothing you can do to stop me.

One has no expectation of privacy in public. None. Social Media IS public. Everything on the internet is public. Some things offer more privacy than others, but if its on the internet, it can and likely WILL BE exposed.

Act accordingly.

"In what way is what I post on X, Facebook or Slashdot and a restaurant harvesting likely to enhance my dining experience?"

Nobody can speak to that without doing what this restaurant is doing. But one very obvious potential example is looking at what you save said about other dining and entertainment experiences so they can get an idea of what you do or don't like.

Most home users are not seeking privacy first, it's mostly about being able to appear to be coming from other countries, or at most just hiding from their ISP who is obligated to monitor them.

Found the guy who has never used Android on desktop. You know you can download it for free and try it out, right?

It does not tell us they were not flipped with one hand at the same time, no.

"since when is a fire extinguisher considered a weapon?"

You know it is when it's used as one. That's why you posted anon.

"They and this administration have also turned down the flood of illegal border crossings"

It is legal and correct to enter the country and then apply for asylum.

Moderates? You mean enablers?
