Yes. There are a lot of reasons why any one of us could turn into a high value target at the drop off s hat. If not to a government, then to an organisation or a lone lunatic.

Blocking, yes. Bans can be more, though. When poor opsec gets you defenestrated or shipped to an offshore entertainment facility, it's a bit more than an inconvenience.

¿Por qué no los dos?

Check Heimdall instead.

One of the worst names ever. Maybe also one of the worst launchers. Otherwise I really like it.

Haven't heard. That would be good.

What I noticed right away was: It's the ugliest hello world ever. It's the slowest hello world ever. (For a long time it was also the record size hello world at something like 64MB, but that's later and on a compiler.) And it doesn't actually run on any platform except one: jre. And most binaries you find only run on one version of that one brand of jre.

Still, not the worst thing for writing web services in in late 90s. Doesn't matter how slow it starts or how much space it takes. Responding to requests, being familiar to new programmers and living in a sandbox was enough.

When they make the bread worse and raise prices to increase their profit margin. And show some ads to make extra profit. And start to pester you with more service tiers and subscriptions before they give you the bread because they'll be able to scam some people into giving them another revenue stream...

Internet archive has been seriously endangered for a long time now. They were even attacked a while ago. The wayback machine is still not fully functional.

It's one of the greatest existing libraries of information and culture in existence. Consider donating, if you can.

I remember a story and pictures where there was a party of some sort and at some point during the night people decided to go get food. Maybe the handiest place was a drive through our maybe it was just one of those ideas, but a fairly considerable number decided to go walk to the nearby drive through. There was a picture of them, in a long single file lined up along the lane.

Let the wookiee in.

we can do that kind of thing again.

I admire the optimism.

But still doesn't have chamfers or fillets.

The same thing all the other people who can't drive do: employ services or move to a place you can live in.

Probably because it's brown and makes the room look like a barn. But not a trendy one.

I'll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

Or just aren't into brands or burgers, but remember a name they liked once.

Or just a brain fart.

A personal wiki or a text file, depending on the place. Would be nice to have some compact non invasive ticket system, but I've never seen one.

I've used literal card decks and GTDish pen and paper systems when there was more demanding need on tracking things. They're effective.

I'd get a new drive. Install a sane os and needed tools and use that. They should be cheap these days. Put the old one in a safe place in case you need something from it. When you find it years on and notice that there was nothing important there after all, recycle it. That's a much safer approach.

Had a farm cat once that was nuts about raw potato and cucumber. No other foodstuff, but any whiff of those and she'd be right there too take them off your hands.

Great mouser, too.
