"Study war no more" was supposed to mean something entirely different.

Yes they have different stuff now, but same idea.

Gets some results

Ok one of the capstans is likely to be on a pivot, to detect tape tension for auto reverse. See if it is sticky etc. Try web search for this problem?

Government secure phones are special hardware made by the NSA. They are nothing like civilian phones. Obama got the NSA to lock down his Blackberry but I doubt that is doable with today's mainstream smartphones.

Military gear generally has tons of anti-moron safeguards. Unfortunately, Signal is for civilians.

Try a different tape. Maybe your tape is getting stuck.

"And that b*tch Anne Murray..." (Blame Canada)

I thought about doing that to protect against evil firmware in the phone's baseband radio, but meh.

I used gitit for a while. It's git backed and you can propagate it around that way.

Basically there's no executive branch. Voters elect parliament and parliament elects government ministers (equivalent to the Cabinet) and the PM, similar to how the US Congress elects a speaker and committee chairs.

There is no need for this.

Yes I've been using it, it's nice. Just wish it could set the font bigger.

Oh this is about software architecture. Looked like spam that had nothing to do with programming.

Cig lighter phone charger won't supply the 5v? I'd have thought the camera mount and enclosure would take the most effort. Raspberry pi zero with their camera accessory would be the main camera.

I see, I found the setting for that just now. On mine it's set to just launch the regular browser which seems fine.

I hate bagless vacs since you get exposed to all that dirt and pathogens when you empty them, plus anything sticky that gets vacuumed up will get stuck in the vac and eventually have to be scrubbed out. Get a bagged vac if you can. I'm in the US and use an upright/canister, bagged, Dirt Devil MVP.

This is about Nixon's Treasury secretary, William Simon.

I'm in the android version and didn't realize it wrapped any kind of browser.

My only experience with the fediverse so far is Lemmy and I can understand why some forum users might not want to change to it. Too much censorship, too many bots, less continuity of the user base, etc.
